Just a wild guess, Huey, but the proteins are amino acids that contain
NH3 (ammonia) groups. These might be dislodged by the carbonate (CO3).
-
True.
And since proteins in eggs are in the white part, I might try and
withdraw a whit or two. Less baking powder too. And probably, I will add
a tablespoon of gluten to make up for the egg whites ( a bit like you
took back one egg and added wheat protein).

Below, Bill O'Meally suggests replacing some of the flax meal with wheat
protein, but ostensibly flax seeds (meal) are used to raise omega-3
proteins. (If it is for lowering cholesterol you'd be better off with
oat bran or psyllium seed husks.)
-
Well, it's fatty, it's full of omega 3, and full of fiber.
Can't be bad for cholesterol ratio, right? I don't aim for a particular
benefit, though. Only to have a recipie that fits a LC diet.
-
It is presumed that hunter-gatherers
had a 1 to 1 ratio of omega-3s and omega-6s, whereas today it is about 1
to 10. This probably isn't a big deal because the oxygen and the heat
will destroy most of the omega-3s anyway.
-
Surprisingly, this is not true at all.

Well, it's on the "golden valley" site. True. But they quote sources and
scientific ones too.
But I must admit I was quite surprised. to make it short:
"baking ha(s) no effect on the bioavailability of flaxseed fatty acids."
Great, right?

(Omega-6 is an
inflammatory; omega-3 an anti-innammatory.)

I read that recently.
This is quite a piece of information, I think.
For instance, it could lead people with arthritis to avoid sunflower oil
wich is all omega6.
And how many inflamatory disease are being fed by sunflower oil, right now?
(well I guess some could argue that omega 3 could be dangerous to people
with auto-imune disease...)
(...)
But changes
in the composition of fats in our diet may account for many of the
diseases of civilization‹cardiac, diabetes, obesity, etc.‹that have long
been linked to modern eating habits, as well as for learning and
behavioral problems in children and depression in adults.

I instinctively believe this, really.
