My wife has been buying Dr Gundry's supplements for several years now and after looking at the ingredients on several of his products, I noticed that Maltodextrin was added. Maltodextrin is dangerous for your Gut Health. I wonder why Dr Gundry feels that Maltodextrin is an advantage for Gut Health?
Leaky gut is real. That is when toxins, bad bacteria, etc. get leaked into our system via the digestive tract and cause disruption giving us symptoms that we then have to deal with. I was diagnosed with SIBO, a fungus and a yeast, gluten intolerant as the cause of my digestive issues, fatigue, not sleeping well. My doctor prescribed a number of supplements and botanicals to help heal my digestive tract along with changes in my diet. And my symptoms are dramatically reduced.
Leaky gut is real. Dr. Gundy miracle cure is not. He and other Docs selling stuff on the internet are out to make lots of money . Thier products are not prescription drugs and they know they don't have to prove that they do.
I don't know about Dr. Gundry, but I do know that a healthy gut is important concerning the issues you are mentioning. Have you tried probiotics. I take them everyday as they provide good bacteria for gut health. It is true that the supplement should also contain prebiotics. The one I use has 10 strains and 60 million CFU's. Not only am I regular, but I feel really good. I will be 70 next year and I started taking probiotics after being on anti biotics for a while. Antibiotics kill all the bacteria in your gut (good and bad). I did my research and now my gut health is wonderful. It won't hurt for you to start taking probiotics. Check with your doctor. Make sure it has multiple strains and at least 40 to 60 million CFU's (colony forming units). God bless.
I am 70 years old. Something that worked for me after suffering with constipation for about 20 years is Dr Schultz Formula 1. His products are all natural and they work. Start with 1 at dinner, if you don't go the next morning, take 2 at dinner and so on till you go. Took me 3. Good luck and God Bless
Well, I have been researching anything that can return my regular BM since my intestinal prolapse surgery in October and now I am becoming more than a little concerned. I also read Dr Gundry's excerpts from his book and I think he sounds like he just wants money from people. Not an expert as he calls himself. I don't know what to use anymore because nothing is really working.. Doctors have prescribe the Miralax, Lactulose, Bisacodyl, Phillips Milk of Magnesia (yuk) and other over the counter things- such a waste of money .... the list goes on... I was so desperate last week I bought one of those liquid enema apparatus kits.. but I felt it was too dangerous and that I may harm myself even further... my PCP suggested eating 2 Kiwi's Fruits and at least 64 ounces of warm lemon water per day.. Apparently Kiwi's are the new "Prunes" Yoga and different types of twisting exercises sometimes gets things moving a bit, but none of this gives me the relief that is needed to be normal. I am literally full of ___ !! Today I decided I am no longer eating because it is not being eliminated properly. I can't go on this way any longer.. Each doctor seems to be of no help. This is such a condition that is difficult and embarrassing to talk about, even to a gastrologist .. I don't know... I feel something is terrible wrong.. Please, does anyone have any have any other suggestions about what I can do this weekend? Thank you so much for any response 🙁
Plant-based diet, avoiding nightshades (tomatoes, eggplant, bell peppers).
Light breakfast (millet, quinoa, amaranth, etc.). Heaviest meal at lunch (avoid red meat... chicken, turkey, fish OK. Light dinner (soup). Finish dinner by 7 pm or so.
Bedtime by 10 pm, up by 6 am (before sunrise).
Dry figs soaked overnight, with breakfast or any other time. 2-3 pieces.
Homemade yogurt (it's easy), diluted with three parts water (lassi) and a bit of either good sugar (turbinado) if you are slim, or unheated honey if you are heavier. Have with lunch or after lunch. Not in the morning or at night. This is the best probiotic. Most probiotics in the market are useless as by they time they get to you the friendly bacteria had died. An exception is the Natren brand. Don't have straight yogurt, always dilute it with water.
Prebiotic foods: Okra, Asparagus Taro Root, Marshmallow Root, Slippery Elm, Arrowroot powder.
Cultured ghee for internal lubrication (havedadotcom). Best source of butyrate.
Flora Tone and Triphala from mapidotcom. 2-3 tablets of triphala half hour before bedtime gives a gentle laxative effect the next morning.
If you find an Ayurvedic practitioner in your area, inquire about education, experience, reputation, etc. and if it checks out have a consultation.

Hi. Obviously you can't stop eating tho anger and frustration can make us want to give up. Not eating is of course I give up and if you really did stop eating, well its suicidal. So my next question would be "Are you so beside yourself and feeling so gaslighted you are really ready to give up and leave?"
I think you would have said more, hope anyway.
I have the opposite issue. IBS with very frequent Diarrhea (4-12x/day for 40 years. For real.)
So I have taken triphala as mentioned elsewhere. It can help constipation/ obstipation but also can help regulate your stools. Either way I found. Don't poo-poo herbs bur do your own research. No overnight cure people who advertise on tv, youtube or esp FB. Lets face it, its not to keep prices low - its to avoid the FDA.
And ill just say, kind of funny but very very true (others?) The minute I walk into a thrift store I need to go. Same with a library. Something about old books it seems to me. Maybe its an allergy to old book mites? Ot just is? Like noticably not related to eating. 15 minutes after eating is always an issue. I know where every BR in town is. Believe me, It's an issue.
Like you, nobody has ever offered me good treatment I guess because I'm not thin since an anti-cancer drug (megace) they gave me before my hyst. Another story tho.
One more off thing is a cod liver oil pack on your belly. Its really very good for pain, etc (an old treatment but actually became an old wives tale because it works. Read about it and you can buy a cod liver oil pack on amazon to keep things less messy. On an abdomen with a heating pad is less messy than a hip. Worth researching for any number of issues. I would sound insane if I were to tell you how many things its really really helped. But I did avoid knee surgery! Be
I know this is an old post but is still an issue for many.

Try Benefiber in any form: powder, chewables or gummies to stop chronic diarrhea. It works.
