To our knowledge, this is the first meta-analysis to examine GSH in this patient group
These two subsequent tests are often combined with ABTS and DPPH
Further analysis indicated that among the 19 overgrown bacterial families, 12 possessed the urease gene ( Alteromonadaceae , Clostridiaceae , Cellulomonadaceae , Enterobacteriaceae , Dermabacteraceae , Halomonadaceae , Micrococcaceae , Moraxellaceae , Methylococcaceae , Pseudomonadaceae , Polyangiaceae , and Xanthomonadaceae ), 5 harbored the uricase gene ( Dermabacteraceae , Cellulomonadaceae , Xanthomonadaceae , Micrococcaceae , and Polyangiaceae ) producing ammonia that is harmful to the intestinal epithelium, and 3 expressed the tryptophanase gene necessary for the conversion of tryptophan into indole, which is then metabolized by the liver into uremic toxins ( Enterobacteriaceae , Clostridiaceae , and Verrucomicrobiaceae ) (Wong et al., 2014)
In contrast, the MCT-KD provided 80% from fat (including 25% from MCT oil), 1015% from protein, and 510% from carbohydrates
