new research debunks trad views on nutrition

well, except that I don't know if there is a type of dung beetle that specializes in chicken poop

‍ Mushrooms are grown on horse manure that has been composted with chicken manure + lime.

‍ Mushrooms are grown on horse manure that has been composted with chicken manure + lime.

Thus the saying, in the US anyway, among irritated employees who never know what’s going on:

“I’m on the mushroom diet: kept in the dark and fed nothing but sh!t.”

But researchers wanted to look at feeding almond hulls to yeast which might boost their nutritional value. Yeast could consume sugars from the hulls and produce protein.

Initial results are promising​

Compositional analysis showed that almond hulls are rich in polygalacturonic acid (pectin) and soluble sucrose. A pectinase-assisted process was optimised to liquify and release soluble sugars from the almond hulls.

The process did require adding enzymes to convert the hulls to a slurry, and nitrogen for the yeasts to produce proteins. Yields of essential amino acids, especially lysine, need further improvement.
