@polba you are welcome It takes time and being consistent But you will feel much better and symptom free Just easy to digest stuff Nothing that irritates your digestion u

Now it's worse again, I think it is due to food. I am now keeping track of grocery store receipts and whether I feel better or worse afterwards to narrow down what's reducing symptoms and what's increasing it. It gets substantially worse if I eat too little so a elimination diet is off the table. Glycine helps a lot. Supposedly this is because during a state of sickness the body needs like 10-15g of Glycine daily to repair mucal barriers, gut lining, skin, etc, but can only produce 3g itself. It also generally increases the threshold for mast cell degranulation. I drink a few teaspoons per day dissolved in drinks.

Good thread. I am trying to swish with salt water to fix my breath problem. My Mom says my breath is "very sweet" and according to the internet its a sign of ketosis. Well that's about the only thing it can not be. I know it gets worse when drinking coffee.

Update I'm feeling just fine again at rest like before taking the thiamine. Hooray!

@LucH said in Limit blue light with a software?: For what wavelength does lutein provide protection? Same question for blue light. => Lutein, zeaxanthin, anthocyanin.

You’d better listen to the signals of your body and accept them. Perhaps temporally though the body has memory (immune system). Perhaps not yet too late if you are very cautious with dairy. Nothing to do with lactose intolerance. 50 % intolerant with gluten are intolerant to milk. Mimicry. We don’t need dairy to get the appropriate amount of calcium even if it’s easier or if you like it. E.g. broccoli is very rich in available calcium. You don’t need 1200 mg calcium. The amount 550 or 850 mg Ca depends on how you deal with the acid-base balance (Na, Ca, K, Mg versus Phosphorus and Sulfur). To help balancing you’ll probably need: bisglycinate magnesium phophocalcium (+ calcium citrate when there is oxalate in veggies) potassium bicarbonate. I track my balance with cronometer.com (I’ve changed the targets). I repeat: you can’t force the body to accept sth when the intestinal linen are fragile / irritated. The sooner you accept it (100 % or it won’t never heal completely), the quicker you can get / optimize the tightness of the brush border of the stomach. I can give a link if interested, if you accept the fact you won’t heal “over the next 2 weeks”! To optimize the motility, get inform on MMC (interprandial motility). But you’ll probably need to heal the integrity and the thickness of the stomach linen before adding fibbers (with glutamine). A last advice: If you wait too long, you’ll get problem with the microbiota and perhaps / probably with candidiasis. There, no glutamine advisable or you’ll feed the beast. Act before you suffer from SIBO/ SIFO too much to tolerate what you can eat. Much more restrictive then.

@cookielemons I was eating a shit ton of them, probably 0.5 kg every evening, but yeah, I agree they were not my only issue back then

I have had the same issue with not just B vitamins but also any pro metabolic supplement like pyrucet. The trick is to both take the vitamins with lots of carbs and to also increase carb intake in the hours after, since your glucose oxidation will be ramped up and your blood sugar will plummet easier, leading to the fatigue you describe.

Another quick update. Just took a shower and removed a large quantity of earwax from my left ear. My left TMJ feels much better now, though not completely. I might go to an ENT in a month to get a professional ear cleaning. Even if you can hear, you could have earwax that is affecting TMJ symptoms.

@happyhanneke said in Sudden dental issues/lack of saliva: @Jennifer I took some time to think about this. Thanks very much for the information. I am inclined to think it has nothing to do with hormone levels. The problematic part of menopause is years behind me and in those years I did have an increased amount of plaque. But I actually feel very good now. No more excess plaque. I used to have ulcerative colitis but that seems to have disappeared too with my menopause issues. I haven't had a flare up for years. But my nails are also brittle and break off easily. Therefore, I am going to the doctor to have a blood test done. If you have suggestions on what to specifically have tested I would like to know. I will ask her for sure to do thyroid panels. In the meantime I am slowly coming off cynomel. It didn't seem to do that much for me other than helping with my heart palpitations. I just want to see if I improve and if not I can always start again. You’re welcome. I’m glad you’re feeling good. Brittle nails, and any other connective tissue weakness, would relate back to thyroid/parathyroid gland function, as they are the main glands involved in calcium metabolism. The fact that you had heart palpitations, i.e., symptoms of adrenaline, would also indicate an underactive thyroid as the adrenals/adrenaline compensate for the thyroid when it’s not producing enough thyroid hormone. Personally, I don’t think blood tests are the most accurate diagnostic for thyroid function. Better are temps, including temps of extremities (feet, hands, nose and ears), taken first thing in the morning just after waking up, before eating, and 20–30 minutes after eating, pulse rate, achilles tendon reflex test and evaporation rate—total fluids consumed and eliminated via urine in a 24 hr period.

No proof with iodine on warf but ... I don't need a study to confirm the efficacity on every virus when it helps the immune system How effective is iodine as virucidal? (And by microbes, viruses, fungi and parasites) DOI: 10.1530/ERC-17-0515 Role of iodine metabolism in physiology and cancer. Endocr. Relat. Cancer. 2018 New research supports the exciting idea that I- participates as a protective antioxidant and can be oxidized to hypoiodite, a potent oxidant involved in the host defense against microorganisms. This was possibly the original role of I- in biological systems, before the appearance of TH in evolution. I- per se participates in its own regulation, and new evidence indicates that it may be antineoplastic, anti-proliferative and cytotoxic in human cancer. Alterations in the expression of I- transporters are associated with tumor development in a cancer-type-dependent manner. SARS-Cov-2 doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0254341 The in vitro virucidal activity of intranasal Povidone-Iodine (PVP-I) has been demonstrated recently to reduce SARS-CoV-2 viral titers. EID (200 μg iodine/ml) after exposure for 60 and 90 seconds was compared to controls. In both cases, the viral titer was reduced by 99%. EID = Essential Iodine Drops. Influenza viruses Iodine, particularly in the form of povidone-iodine, is effective against influenza viruses by disrupting their structure and blocking their ability to attach to and enter host cells. How it works • Disrupts viral structure: Iodine makes structural changes to the viral coat by attacking key viral proteins • Blocks attachment: Iodine interferes with the hemagglutinin protein, preventing the virus from attaching to receptors on human cells. • Inhibits viral release: It also inhibits neuraminidase, a viral enzyme essential for releasing new virus particles from infected cells.

I think the most powerful tool for both SIBO and SIFO is MSM sulfur. This podcast by Dr Janel explains how well it has worked for antibiotic resistant sibo. Its cheap, safe and works. https://gijanel.com/gi-janel-one-video/

3 meals each with 100g of carb and 36g lean protein and 15g of fat give 2000calories a day and thats not even counting vegetable side dishes. so you're exaggerating on how low the calorie count of 500 if you eat clean. I would do 3 meals with 200-250g of veg per meal and some pineapple and eggshell. some c8/c10 mct oil might clean out the gut. your comment about how "all" the food around you has fuing st in it is hitting that you have some sort of neuroticism and thats probably causing more issues than a SIBO which will probably resolve after digestion speeds up.
