bCarbohydrate, lipid, and amino acid compositions were calculated based on the product specifications of ColoDan BC powder provided by Biofiber Damino (Gesten, Denmark). Levels of whey and casein were measured at Department of Food Science (University of Copenhagen) by Milkoscan (FOSS, Hilleroed, Denmark) before and after casein removal.
cMethionine and cysteine, and phenylalanine and tyrosine are listed in combination. The ratio of each of these combinations of amino acids should not exceed 2:1 or 1:2 without appropriate testing for adequacy.
