Polyamines in Food and Ferments.

Posted on July 15, 2011 by Dr. Gary Pack

Spermidine, spermine, putrescine, cadaverine, agmatine and histamine are natural chemicals found in food. They are known as polyamines*, which are essential to normal cell processes. Polyamines are believed to be made of amino acids and are increased by fermentation. Putrescine can be produced from the amino acid ornithine. Polyamines are made by cells and they […]

Polyphenols in Pregnancy and Fetal Ductus Arteriosus.

Posted on August 8, 2009 by Dr. Gary Pack

This study was done to test the belief that foods rich in polyphenols, especially flavonoids, consumed by mothers during the third trimester interfere with fetal heart ductal dynamics. Constriction of the ductus arteriosus before birth can harm the fetus and can cause pulmonary hypertension. Patency of the ductus arteriosus, which stays open until birth, depends […]

Ascorbic Acid Role in the World Avian Flu Pandemic.

Posted on July 19, 2007 by Dr. Gary Pack

Medicine has not been able to discover a solution for influenza and other viral diseases. The problem of finding a treatment for avian flu epidemic may be the result of the “evolving complexity” of the H5N1 virus. There is evidence that oral intake of vitamin C or ascorbic acid (AA) from food (as much as […]

Biogenic Amines in Wines.

Posted on April 26, 2007 by Dr. Gary Pack

Ten biogenic amines (ethanolamine, methylamine, tryptamine, 2-phenylethylamine, putrescine, cadaverine, histamine, tyramine, spermidine and spermine) were tested in red and white wines. The levels of amines change during the process of aging wine. Biogenic amines occur in protein-rich foods such as fish and meat, fermented foods like cheese and salami, beverages such as wine and beer […]

Decreased Polyamines with Aging.

Posted on September 14, 2006 by Dr. Gary Pack

The authors studied polyamine levels in mice at different ages to learn more about the changes that occur with natural aging. Polyamines stimulate the production of proteins and are necessary for proper organ function and include cadaverine, agmatine, spermine, spermidine, norspermidine and putrescine. The normal human polyamine synthesis is reduced with aging, therefore oral intake […]
