The Senate has already started making moves to repeal the ACA, making the threat on no-cost-sharing birth control very real. But while some oral contraception retails for $60 a month and some IUDs can retail for over $1,000, what might women actually spend out of pocket on contraception in a post-ACA world?
Gellan Gum. A gelling agent produced through fermentation of an algae, gellan gum is used in molecular gastronomy to make all sorts of firm-jellied pieces with distinctive shapes.ellan gum is used mainly in the food industry as an anti-settling agent, thickener, stabilizer or to structure prepared foods. Used in very small doses, it acts as an anti-settling agent in liquids, while adding only a very light viscosity.
General Side Effects. Gellan gum poses laxative effect if ingested in large amount due to fermentation by the intestinal microflora. Other than that, gellan gum is safe for using in food. Research on human consuming large amount(175-200mg/kg bw) of gellan gum for over 3 weeks indicates no side effects. * Report new side effects to us by sending email to foodchemmis08@foodchem.cn.
