Dr. Shell also formulated SeQuester, a "natural nutritional fat sequestrant", which added bile to the fibrous matter, claiming to trap fat and allow it to pass through the digestive system without being absorbed by the body.〔http://community.seattletimes.nwsource.com/archive/?date=19940828&slug=1927433〕 Dr. Shell recently published new data regarding the nutritional management of pain using the amino acid based medical food Theramine in the American Journal of Therapeutics.〔http://journals.lww.com/americantherapeutics/pages/results.aspx?txtKeywords=theramine〕 in addition to new data regarding the nutritional management of sleep disorders 〔http://www.la-press.com/sentra-pm-a-medical-food-and-trazodone-in-the-management-of-sleep-diso-article-a3154〕 and the nutritional management of PTSD. 〔http://www.la-press.com/administration-of-an-amino-acidbased-regimen-for-the-management-of-aut-article-a4419〕 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「William Shell」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
