[DIYbio] Re: Designer Probiotics. Anyone interested in this?

@ Nathan, here i am talking about destroying fatty acids (chemical).
Here is a decent paper studying the effect of reduced fat diet on body

I understand that carbs are a better target but I have not yet
conceived of a way to dealing with carbs (although i will look into
the suggestions made in this thread). Feel free to join the effort.
