Guest guest Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 Hi Violet,Is it possible that your digestion is impaired and may benefit from something like GAPS Diet which rebuilds the gut? in Alaska On Sun, Mar 18, 2012 at 7:02 PM, Violet Persuasion <jj.foreveryoung@...> wrote: My hubby and I were talking about my drastically low levels of basically all nutrients I was tested for, my labs showed low calcium, iron, sodium.... and that is with me being a devoted Nourishing Traditions woman, so I get PLENTY of celtic sea salt, raw milk/cottage cheese/butter/plain full fat yogurt, and meats (I LOVE liver!).

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 I'm positive that my digestion is impaired. I actually have a new question related to this... If I am taking ACV with every meal, will I also need digestive enzyme pills as well, or should the Bragg's ACV that I already have be sufficient for the average non-processor to start processing the nutrients. If I should be also taking dig. enzymes, I will need to order those quickly, to start taking with my other stuff. ~Jess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 20, 2012 Report Share Posted March 20, 2012 There is an easy way to know. You could buy a bottle of betaine HCL with pepsin (digestive enzyme). These are usually 650mg caps (my husband uses the Twinlab brand with great results).... take one before a meal and watch how you feel. If you feel the symptoms of heartburn or any type of gastric irritation, then your stomach has enough acid as it is. If not you gradually up ur dose after a week to 2 caps and then to as many as 3 prior to each meal till ur body gets retrained to make sufficient gastric juice (containing HCL) to digest food properly. My husband has had GERD for a very long time with years of being on proton-pump inhibitors like Nexium which only exacerbate the problem, cause more malnutrition and can end up giving u stomach cancer. Now he takes just one pill of HCL and symptoms just disappeared! You can learn more on Kresser's site which seems to be down now, or I would have pasted a link here. > > I'm positive that my digestion is impaired.

Guest guest Posted March 21, 2012 Report Share Posted March 21, 2012 Hi Violet,Have you worked on your gut health? You just might absorb well because of other issues, and it is taking the high levels to be able to absorb enough. Good probiotics may help, and you may not be digesting the proteins well. That was my case, I ate plenty, but was not digesting. I now take a quality digestive enzyme everytime I eat, and that has helped tremendously, not only in my levels of nutrients, but because I was actually digesting the food, I started having more normal bowel movements.

Guest guest Posted March 21, 2012 Report Share Posted March 21, 2012 Hi Violet, I've recently come to the conclusion that I have a similar problem in that I eat very well but seem to have a number of nutritional defiencies including iron and vitamin D. I've had kefir for years and been eating pretty much a Nourishing Traditions diet but only gave up gluten a couple of years ago and wonder if that didn't do damage that is taking longer than just the couple of years to repair. I'm not sure about the vitamin D but I " ve just come out of an Australia summer and got quite a bit of sun exposure, in addition to taking approximately 3400 i.u.s a day, but my levels are low so it seems to be an absorption problem. I get heartburn from a single dose of HCL Betaine so I don't think stomach acid is an issue for me. I've just ordered a enzyme digestive - not sure if it's the same as the HCL but will try it. I'm also taking largish doses of vitamins for now and I think I " ve noticed a different just in the week that I've been taking the very large doses of vitamin Bs. It's expensive but I feel like I've tried everything else I could think of. I'll keep on with the kefir, fermented foods, iodine protocol and other bits and pieces and hope that I can heal my gut over time.

Guest guest Posted March 21, 2012 Report Share Posted March 21, 2012 ,I do realize you are doing many things for your digestive health. But have you considered doing GAPS to heal you gut? Also, on the enzymes, there are many different enzymes than just HCL. So if too little stomach acid is not your issue you may want to just concentrate on the others. Does iodine seem to make a different in your digestion? in AlaskaOn Wed, Mar 21, 2012 at 10:54 AM, Cochrane <juliemc9@...> wrote: Hi Violet, I've recently come to the conclusion that I have a similar problem in that I eat very well but seem to have a number of nutritional defiencies including iron and vitamin D.

Guest guest Posted March 21, 2012 Report Share Posted March 21, 2012 Donna, I eat a lot of lacto-fermented foods, which does wonders for gut health. That's about all I've ever " worked " on it, aside from eliminating gluten. lol I have never been tested for Celiac, so I am not sure if it's lifelong or " short-term " that I need to avoid gluten, but the crippling arthritis I had last year, at age 28, went away completely after just a few weeks of a gluten elimination diet. I know my body's got some absorption issues, just not sure to what extent! Once I started using magnesium oil in advance of the iodine protocol (just a few weeks ago), I started having looser, more frequent bowel movements. Hm. My magnesium labs came back extremely low. What are a few brands of reliable digestive enzyme that you could recommend? Thank you, so so much Donna. ~Jess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 21, 2012 Report Share Posted March 21, 2012 Violet, I am sorry you are going through this. You might want to consider exploring if you have candida. My daughter and I both struggle with it and because of it do not fully absorb the nutrients in our foods or supplements (at times). While my daughter's case is more dramatic than mine, I will just share my own personal experience. In 2009 I was found to have candida and my MD just prescribed a 7 or 10 day supply of Nystatin. I thought I was good to go. No so. In August of 2011 I had a big candida flare-up and I also started to lose a lot of my hair & became very fatigued. . I did not make the connection... neither did the specialists. I had started taking iron and then became anemic. How could this be? I looked back at my blood work and noticed a decrease in my hemoglobin and iron levels happening slowly since 2009. I was referred to an oncologist. He ruled out the worst and offered an iron IV. He said " it would take you 8 years to get to the level you will get to with an IV " . I prayed about it and had NO peace about the IV iron, so I declined. The next day my iron labs were better. " what gives Lord? " . I started feeling better, my hair was s l o w l y coming back, and my energy was starting to come back a little. In Jan 2012 I had another candida explosion, magnesium level lowered, hair falling out, fatigue. I can't say for sure about the iron since I did not have that checked. Now I started to connect the dots... it was the candida. I am still fighting it and realize when it goes quite, it can just be dormant. I am learning, the hard way, that this candida is not an enemy to take lightly. Sorry for so much detail but I wanted you to see some of what those nasty bugs can do. When we get our intestinal area squared away things will get a whole lot better throughout our body. Have a blessed day, Luci > > My hubby and I were talking about my drastically low levels of basically all nutrients I was tested for, my labs showed low calcium, iron, sodium.... and that is with me being a devoted Nourishing Traditions woman, so I get PLENTY of celtic sea salt, raw milk/cottage cheese/butter/plain full fat yogurt, and meats (I LOVE liver!).

Guest guest Posted March 21, 2012 Report Share Posted March 21, 2012 Hi Jess,Currently I use Rainbow Light Advanced Enzyme System. But I have used others, can’t remember what kind. There are different combinations of enzymes in different brands, and sometimes you have to try different kinds before you find the one that works for you. I really like vitacost’s items, I would be willing to try their Mega Spectrum Enzyme also.

Guest guest Posted March 22, 2012 Report Share Posted March 22, 2012 Whatever they are, SBOs will cause some people to become severely constipated at first -- forcing their immediate discontinuation. Also, SBOs do not inhabit the intestines (they just pass through), so you'll need to keep buying them forever, unlike probiotics that eventually colonize the intestines.

Guest guest Posted March 22, 2012 Report Share Posted March 22, 2012 One of things that SBO products boast is large numbers of strains of good bacteria, but it's bacteria found in the rootlets of plants to help the plants absorb minerals and NOT bacteria found in the human gut. Most SBO products contain herbal cleansers which is more than likely the reason that some folks have good results. Linn Moderator > > > >......
