What I am looking at here is the reduction of lacto and bifido bacteria after a drinking milk trial.
The were trying to test CLA in milk but that had little/no effect. What the heck is in the milk that is
killing off the bacteria, is it milk itself,or ABX. The B-glucorunidase was not reduced but who knows how much is really
supposed to be there, killing off the good bacteria is not good.

Now tie that in with this theory.
The basis of this theory is the reduction of gut bacateria activity due to saccharin, or other chemicals
that we ingest. Basically it is saying that there is not enough bacterial B-glucorunidase to
deconjugate bilirbuin,if the bilirbuin is not degonjuagated then the digestive proetases will not be deactived
Then the mucus barrier is destroyed,then the bacteria get to the mucosa, then the immune cascade
starts.

I am a big believer that we need a strong mucus barrier, and the loss is the real cause of UC.
There is some form of excess protease dissolving the mucus,whether from too many bacteria, that
exhibit protease, or not enough to deactivate digestive protease.
Will try and do more research on this,but might cut out milk.
Many have improved by cutting out dairy.
