Milk also goes through a process called pasteurization, its intentions are to kill the bad bacteria, but it also strips away enzymes and nutrients that help digest the milk. Thus, the product is considered as empty calories and has no nutritional value (Cleary; DelAmor). Furthermore, milk contains lactose, a type of sugar. Our bodies are not able to digest this kind of sugar, as a result, we produce mucous as a reaction towards the milk. Producing too much mucous causes clogging in your digestive and respiratory tract as well as inflammation (Cleary; DelAmor).
“Fibers that cannot be digested by bacteria in the large intestines are called insoluble fibers because they do not dissolve in water.” (Grosvenor & Smolin, 2006) High fiber diets can produce many benefits, including higher nutrient absorption levels, and better waste output. Diets that tend to lack in fiber or are high in insoluble fiber tend to cause gastrointestinal irritation and constipation. People that experience these symptoms should consider reviewing their fiber sources, and water consumption
Mary rolls her eyes. Mary explains that Clara needs carbohydrates for energy. Complex carbohydrates are good, but too much simple sugar is not.

Many companies selling these products make claims, for example, that creatine monohydrate is poorly absorbed and or poorly metabolized by the body. This is simply untrue: research has found that creatine monohydrate is highly absorbable. Some claim less “bloating” or other supposed effects of monohydrate, but don’t have a drop of data to support the claim, or even a feasible theory as to why their form would not have the effect vs. the monohydrate form. They often claim dramatically improved absorption over monohydrate (without data), fewer side effects (without data), the ability to reduce the number of non-responders to creatine (without data), etc. Are you starting to see a theme here?!
However, bootleggers were undeterred and were able to remove the toxins by redistilling the alcohol—most of the time. Such toxins often made people die, go blind, or suffer other permanent disabilities such as paralysis.
