it's funny because im pretty sure ive seen that guar gum can cause issues by itself
-
@eduardo-crispino Yea I thought so too and pectin too? r not pectin its in this jam I eat sometimes
-
@herenow so fiber is needed then?
What do u think is ideal if you dont have gut issues I dont want to hear it
The truth method of knowledge is experiment.
I am curious to try low fiber but I feel I dont eat much already I have bad high serotonin symptoms.
I find white rice has startch in it and that can be irritating -
@herenow yeah & mainly insoluble in those i think a slice of white bread or 100g white rice has ~ 0.5g insoluble
maybe they had 4 grams spaced apart over the day. which is near the first study with 0.3%

@cs3000 hi, can you check PM?

@cs3000
Yes diet and lifestyle. Really paying attention of what I eat and what the reaction to it is.
One other thing that is important is that I went through menopause and so my hormones obviously completely changed. I noticed that this has made a big difference too.I used to have it so bad that I could not go to work. Doctors have made it worse in the beginning too. They all have different opinions and it confused me.
For medication I used to take mesalamine suppositories (1000mg). They come in all kinds of brands. (asacol, canasa). It was the only thing that worked for me. I had a GI doc try to change me to prednisone but that did nothing for me and I felt terrible.
I still have these suppositories on hand since I am always afraid that I will get it back. If I catch it quick enough it won't go in a full blown flare up.But as of now I have been symptom free for about 4 years and my colonoscopy is also clear.

@cs3000 Tried the morning pectin consecutively but its been causing extra pain. too viscous to be having a lot at once for an existing wound i think. The stimulation also didnt hit again after the first 2 days (with or without the bromelain). The only difference is the first day I used 7g so thats probably the threshold amount for me. I dropped it & switched to senna pod tablets lowest dose that works for now.
Added:
. Gotu Kola extract 100mg standardized to 10mg asiaticosides + extra 300mg non standardized powder, 2 or 3 *2 a day
. concentrated EPA (without DHA or low amounts) limiting to 230mg (peat wasnt a fan especially of DHA and i'm not other than a small baseline, but theres a specific function, and epa is better than dha)
. Boswellia standardized, 50mg-100mg of the acids
will give this combo a go for a few weeks + the low fiber -
@cs3000 all “insoluble fiber” including pectin seems to be problematic. Have you seen this: https://lowtoxinforum.com/threads/soluble-fiber-causes-liver-cancer-insoluble-and-antibiotics-prevent-stop-it.26165/
