I always neglect the glutamine, from what I read it can help cure ulcers and then some! great post as always brotherYou likely still have low levels of stomach acid though. Although if you have a history of ulcers be careful with adding in betaine.
If it were me….here’s what i’d be using
quality digestive enzymes with meals
Dgl
Marhsmallow root
Slippery elm bark
Dr ohiras probiotics
Fermented foods
Get fats only from whole food sources like eggs and meat/ no processed oils of any kind. Butter is ok
Fibrous veggies are a no go for awhile
Stick to a low fodmap diet, eat beef when possible for protein.
20-40 grams glutamine daily
Bone broths consumed whenever possible or supplemental collagen
Consume adequate iodine. Real cranberry juice, and seaweed are good sources. Use plenty of iodized salt
Oregano oil I’m on the fence about. It can also kill good guy bacteria. You’re going to be starting fresh after the xifaxan, so I’d personally leave it out.
I just picked up some kraut and kefir today. started my apple cider vinegar on empty stomach fasted regimen again! feel way better.
bone broths contain lead unfortunately as the lead store\s in the animal bones then they dissolve, I read on this today
a lot of veggies have oxalates and are not good.
organic honey is also great for stomach it helps me a lot.
totally agree with you on the fats, and avocado is anti inflammatory! but avocado oil oxidizes before it expires and becomes RANCID so the oil along with many oils is a NO GO , butter better substitute, I cook all my carne asada with butter and home made chicken broth its fire.
