Pale stools - while eating high fat and doing Holistic Horizons colon cleanse

[Guest guest]

Boy, I'm really hoping someone can help here.

I have SIBO (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth). Eliminating ALL forms of

sugar helps tremendously, but to get enough calories I must eat a lot of fat. I

eat 4 T olive oil/day, 4 T seeds, 4 T almond butter, 4 egg yolks, and some meat

and vegetables.

I have been doing this for many months.

On Sept 8th I started Holistic Horizons bowel cleanse. As of right now, I am up

to the max 2 t of psyllium fiber 4 x /day.

On Sept 19th I made a note of pale poops and this has persisted.

I am wondering if this is b/c the fiber is binding the bile salts and preventing

htem from being reabsorbed ?

If os, what can I do about this ?

Some more info:

I take the psyllium 1.5-2 hours away from other food.

I take 500 mg taurine to replace the taurine part of the bile salts

I started lecithin (1T) a few days ago - no change

I started high lipase digestive enzymes a few days ago - I was hoping by

allowing the fat to get absrobed quicker the bile salts would be absorbed before

ingesting the psyllium - no change in color so far.
