Bloating, brain fog and constipation are not normal.

You need to fix your gut.

Here are 4 of the BEST supplements to help:

#1 Glutamine

96% of people with IBS saw improvement using glutamine in one study.

5g - 3x / day for 8 weeks.
Glutamine reverses IBS / gut symptoms.

Another study showed that 5g - 3x daily for 6-8 wks improves:

◇ Leaky gut
◇ Abdominal pain
◇ Bloating
◇ Bowel habits
◇ Quality of life
◇ Stool form

especially when in combination with other changes. Image
Glutamine helps heal the gut by:

◆ Fueling / restoring the gut lining (lacking in IBS/IBDs)
◆ Supporting gut immunity
◆ Antibacterial properties
◆ Lowering inflammation

A great foundation for your gut healing protocol. Image
#2 Butyrate

People with gut issues have low butyrate in the gut.

Butyrate helps fuel the cells in the colon and thus:

⬩Seals up leaky gut
⬩Powerful anti-inflammatory
⬩Increases motility
⬩Improves bacterial composition
Sodium butyrate heals IBS at the root cause.

300-600 mg / day improves EVERY symptom of it:

⬩Abdominal pain
⬩Urge sensation
⬩Stool consistency
⬩Constipation
⬩Abdominal pain
⬩Flatulence
⬩Diarrhea
⬩Nausea
⬩Vomiting
⬩QUALITY OF LIFE

ALL by 50% or more. Image
Butyrate induces remission in Crohn's disease.

4g for 4 weeks:

• Nearly reversed visible pathology in the colon
• Reduced markers of inflammation

by improving gut bioenergetics.

Butyrate has profound inflammation reducing properties that make it incredible for IBDs. Image
Butyrate is typically dosed at 300-600 mg / day in these studies, but you can go even higher if the issue is severe.

This is the brand we use personally + with clients.

#3 Zinc Carnosine

Zinc is VITAL in the gut for:

◇ Mitochondrial function
◇ Antioxidant support
◇ DNA synthesis + transcription
◇ Suppressing inflammation

Carnosine is found in meat - also has antioxidant properties.

Together they powerfully support the gut lining.
A stunning experiment showed near reversal of inflammatory bowel disease using Zinc Carnosine.

Here, they used a single enema, and this:

◇ Improves structure of the gut
◇ Reduces symptoms by around 35%

In 70% of patients. Image
Other benefits of ZINC CARNOSINE for the gut.

⊚ Reverses leaky gut
⊚ Stimulates healing / repair processes
⊚ Prevents ulcers
⊚ Prevents acid reflux / heartburn / GERD
⊚ Helps kill H. Pylori

75 mg (16 mg zinc) to start.

#4 LACTOFERRIN

This is a protein found in milk (especially raw) and colostrum.

➜ Antibacterial
➜ Antifungal
➜ Antiparasitic
➜ Iron balancing
➜ Supports tight junction proteins (leaky gut)
➜ Direct anti-inflammatory Image
Lactoferrin is a powerful antifungal, even against Candida.

The protein found in milk:

◈ Reduces fungal growth
◈ Disrupts fungal biofilm formation
◈ Is synergistic with other antifungals

A good addition to any antifungal regimen. Image
Lactoferrin is strikingly therapeutic for all sorts of gut issues.

600mg/day dramatically reduces:

➜ Nausea
➜ Diarrhea
➜ Abdominal pain

in children suffering from digestive disorders. Image
You can dose lactoferrin from 100 mg, going up to as much as a gram per day for more severe issues.

This is the one I like to use personally & with clients.

Iron can actually SHORTEN your lifespan and age you on a cellular level.

(🧵1/10)Image
This study was published in 2024, investigating the effects of iron chelation on age related parameters.

They used a common aging animal model - a Klotho knockout animal.

Animals are known to have shorter lifespans without this gene, and longer lifespans with more of it.

They gave them a drug called deferiprone, which binds up free iron and gets rid of it.Image
What exactly does klotho do?

Well it's main function is a co-receptor for FGF proteins, which govern various metabolic functions (fat burning, glucose uptake, etc.) as well as vitamin D synthesis.

But it also shows a number of other anti-aging effects:

◈ Reduced oxidative stress
◈ Senescence resistance
◈ Anti-inflammatory effectsImage

Put your finger on your wrist like this right now.

I can tell you more about your health on this alone than with $100s in lab tests.

Ready? This is what it means (🧵1/8):Image
What you are feeling is your radial artery in your wrist area.

This tells you your:

◇ Heart rate (duh)
◇ Pulse amplitude

Both of these give you a ton of information on your health - in real time.

Let's talk about your heart rate first Image
A LOW heart rate is often associated with hypothyroidism.

This is not always true, for instance athletes have lower pulse rates due to adaptation,

but in many people, a low HR indicates thyroid function.

A few functional thyroid doctors like to see this number at 70-85 BPM, and that pretty much aligns with our experience with our clients.Image

Aged garlic was shown to shrink arterial plaques in a landmark clinical trial.

(🧵1/7)Image
Image
This study was published in 2019, examining people with diabetes with plaque in the coronary artery.

This is the primary place where if plaque forms, you're susceptible to a heart attack. Image
They also used what is now considered the best tool for predicting heart disease - Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography (CCTA).

This is an imaging technique used to visualize the plaques.

For this reason, it's incredibly accurate at seeing active disease. Image

N-acetylcysteine (NAC) was shown to reverse brain damage from aluminum in a critical study.

(🧵1/8)Image
Animals were put into 6 groups - either getting aluminum or NAC or both.

The aluminum was administered as aluminum chloride, and it was done so orally.

This is important because roughly only 0.5% of oral aluminum chloride is absorbed, so the real effective doses the animals received were far less than than the 100 mg / kg.

This is still a high dose, but aluminum is known to accumulate in tissues.Image
Animals had severely impaired memory performance with the aluminum, but this was improved with NAC.

The morris water test trains rats to find a hidden platform in pool.

The latencies (times) is how long it takes to find it on a given day.

Less time = better memory.

As you can see, the high dose NAC almost completely reversed the memory impairment from aluminum.Image

Vinegar drastically reduces blood sugar and insulin levels, according to multiple clinical trials.

(🧵1/7)Image
This first paper is a review article from 2017.

They looked at studies giving people vinegar alongside meals and monitored their blood sugar and insulin responses.

Having high levels of these post meal is highly indicative of insulin resistance and is a risk for heart disease.

Apologies, I do not have the official PDF so I'm working with the raw file here.Image
Here were the included studies.

Most are looking at roughly one tablespoon of vinegar alongside a meal with carbs. Image

Why you SHOULDN'T be hysterical about vitamin C causing kidney stones, and what to do to prevent them (🧵1/10):Image
The idea that vitamin C supplementation can cause kidney stones is not completely baseless, but it does lack context.

Ascorbic acid, or vitamin C, can get metabolized in our cells to create oxalate.

Oxalate is what binds to calcium to form kidney stones in most people.

Seems pretty straightforward, BUT...Image
Ascorbic acid mainly gets converted to oxalate under conditions of high oxidative stress.

That is when ascorbic acid (AA) turns into dehydroascorbate (DHA).

But we have glutathione to help regenerate ascorbic acid from dehydroascorbate.

This depends on your entire antioxidant network.Image
