Results from this study1

No result from this study comes from a test of the peptide.

Natural levels measured1

These results measure the body's own peptide. Nobody was given the peptide. They are not evidence about taking it. They are left out of key results, evidence counts and charts.

    In healthy volunteers, rectal mucosal expression of cathelicidin LL37 was not changed after isomalt compared with sucrose.

    In plain wordsIn healthy adults, isomalt did not change the body's own LL37 gene activity in the rectum compared with sucrose.

    Summary · context
    Nineteen healthy volunteers received 30 g isomalt per day or 30 g sucrose as part of a controlled diet over two 4-week test periods with a 4-week washout period in between.

    This result measures the body's own LL-37. Nobody was given the peptide. It is not evidence about taking it.
