...but, i'm not ignoring the potential usefulness of beets as a chitin-neutralizing agent when i add them to the pasta bowl for the betaine, either.

i'm just not ready to conclude it's worthwhile to add mushrooms for the b5 due to the chitin-busting properties of carrots & beets, quite yet.

but, do the study and let me know - or send it to me, if you know about it.
