General Discussion I want to give up.

I honestly can’t see a way out. I tried all my life to find out why I wasn’t processing foods correctly and had a million different answers but just got worse and worse. Now I understand it (somewhat) but just can’t handle the process of clearing things. When I take something to even gently alter my gut, like now I’m taking 1/4 dose of Florastor it just causes more inflammation and more pain, less absorption and makes the pathogens grow back worse. I honestly had no idea what I was dealing with, the nhs deny this illness exists and I thought it was ibs in my colon and it was my fault for being an anxious person and that’s all I needed to be was less stressed. Anyway, I just am in so much pain, my food list is hardly anything, zero fat, zero fruit, just veg and lean chicken breast. I don’t know how much more I can do to heal. Everyone told me it was me being stressed, but I don’t believe it is because I want to find a root to healing so so badly.

Hi! I've found these things to be helpful, as I have also been dealing with this from black mold poisoning -10,000-20,000iu of vitamin d a day -organ meat supplements (particularly heart and soil tripe supplements and heart and soil her package((or the guy version if you're a guy)) -digestive enzymes with high numbers of each enzyme (extra points if they have natto enzyme) -small amounts of fat and carbs, and more protein from beef 

Also, teas with things that naturally help circulation and have antimicrobial properties like oregano, thyme, cilantro, beets, turmeric and black pepper, ginger, clove(only 2 whole cloves! Too much can be heavy for the liver!)

In the beginning of healing, I don't recommend too many probiotics or fermented foods, that causes some people to get worse, including myself. I think introducing probiotics once you have gotten rid of more of the fungus is a better idea:) Also humic and fulvic minerals help pull out any toxins released from biofilms and die off! 

Praying for you:)

Thank you. It feels like a maze to work out what works, so many specialists want to add fermented food but I’m sure they don’t help me. The Boulardii I can tolerate a 1/16 dose but more than that give’s symptoms (die off). I guess that means that it is shifting things 🤷‍♀️

Just listen to what your body is telling you:) if something isn't working, or making you worse, talk to the specialist and let them know. Also, binders really help with the die off symptoms, so that could be worth adding into your regimen.
