Been really interested reading up on gut health which most probably know is on the of the largest factors in overall health, inflammation, muscle/fat ratios, etc.
Been looking at protocols for sort of 'resetting' and optimizing gut health as antibiotics and certain foods can shift the balance one way or another.
So far one of the protocols I just read may look like -
4 weeks - Oregano oil
4 weeks - S. boulardii yeast (help flush candida, restore glycocalyx layer to microvili, and induce IgA secretion)
4 weeks - prescription strength probiotics and fermented foods
Bacteria known/believed to decrease fat and increase LBM -
Lactobacillus
Bifidobacterium
I've played with fermenting foods before but think I'll probably grab a yogurt maker to make things easier and use a cap of VSL3 or another high quality probiotic to start each 1-2 servings.
Wanted to know if anyone else might be knowledgeable on this subject as I feel like the quality of my digestion has decreased in the last year or so.
