treelady said:My problems with gelatin just got worse and worse.
- First I just felt bloated from it
- Then I got diarrhea from both the Great lakes kinds
- So I boiled the Great Lakes gelatin hydrolysate in the green can and that worked for a while...
- Then I got diarrhea even with that
CARROTS seem to be the answer. I take a couple carrots and make sticks and have a few sticks several times a day. And... Now I can use the gelatin. :) Again Ray Peat is right.
It could be the gelatin has endotoxins but if your colon is healthy you can handle it.

I don't know how badderer it can be from homemaked: they dehydrate hides or bones for chipping, so bacterial growth must be stopped here and only return after being hydrated again, but this happens along with heat. I don't know if they scald them prior to that to remove impurities, doing it after grinding (to compact them for transport) is impractical.Maybe I would try gelatine again, if I could get my hands on some of that low endotoxin stuff. I bet it would be expensive though...

Abstract
The basic concept of tissue engineering, an actively applied technology in regenerative medicine, is the coordination between cells, scaffolds, and proliferation factors. Collagen and gelatin are materials that have mostly been used as scaffolds because of their excellent affinity for cells, they are biodegradable, and their ability to form gel. However, very few of the collagen or gelatin preparations used as tissue engineering material have been prepared with low levels of endotoxin, which may trigger fever, shock and a fall in blood pressure even in very minute quantities. Therefore we decided to decrease the content of endotoxin in gelatin so that this biomaterial is not harmful to the body but still maintains its properties, namely, bioaffinity and biodegradation for use in the fields of cell culture and regenerative medicine. In this paper, we describe a method whereby endotoxin could be removed from gelatin solution by using an ultrafiltration membrane with a molecular weight cut-off of 100 kDa and low endotoxin gelatin, endotoxin activity in 0.1% gelatin solution was below 0.03 EU/ml, was obtained as the resulting filtrate solution.
I had coffee in gelatin instead last week. A lot more gelatin intake this way. Coffee jello tastes good.Try gelatin in coffee, I noticed they complement each other.
