Thanks for responses! Appreciate everyone’s input. In regards to burning mouth, it is like everytime I eat or drink things. It’s like my body is on hyperdrive. I suspect b12/folate deficiency because that came back in SpectraCell. I know burning mouth syndrome can be a result of those defiencies as well as Vitamin D. I also am curious to know if it is a oxalate issue of some kind? Not sure... Which type of B12 supplement do you recommend? Sublingual is recommended by my Nutritionist. Have not asked about this yet. I have been tested for H Pylori-Endoscopy, Blood and it is negativ ...

Hi! Thanks for your response. I did take a probiotic that was Designs for Health 15 billion but don’t think that really helped much. Any recommendations for probiotics if you suspect Histamine issues? I’m really not sure what is going on. Thanks!   [End]

Hi! I haven’t posted here in quite some time, but I would like to seek multiple opinions regarding Leaky Gut problems that I have been experiencing for over a year now.

Hi Everyone, I am convinced my system is completely depressed after taking Candida Cleanse. I am convinced that part of my issue is having low stomach acid so my question is would it be safe to supplement with HCL even when my system is weak? I just don’t want to cause anymore damage. Thanks :)   [End]

BrightSideOfLife, I have sadly become sensitive to lemons now. :( So would it still be safe to use Betaine HCL? I’m a little weary because I don’t want to become sensitive to this either. Even bottled water is bothering me. :((( I’ve started to introduce some fish, chicken & turkey in small amounts in the last few days and now I’m constipated. Do try to use Olive Oil and Coconut Oil for fat consumption too. Thanks for your advice!   [End]

Dave, I really appreciate your input. I really would like to thank you for taking the time out of your day to write all this. It means a lot and doesn’t make me feel as alone :) The enzyme I’m on is Enzymedica Digest Spectrum. Any good pancreatic enzymes you recommend? I have started eating some meat in the last few days. Little here and there. Looking into purchasing HCL as well. Trying bone broth but alternating because I don’t want to develop an allergy or anything. Also took the initiative to call chiropractor who specializes in natural/alternative medicine. Really hoping th ...

Definitely reaching out to some practitioners in my area. I am limited on money, but will do my best. Starting to keep a food journal. It is really hard to rotate all my foods. Not going lie but I am sure you understand. Will stick to the digestive enzymes. I am taking Enzymedica Digest Spectrum. Not sure if it is helping all that much but it is keeping me regular. Especially when I introduce new food into my diet. Also am taking Ultimate Flora Probiotic 30 Billion. Not sure if that is good either. Thanks for all your help! I’m really trying to stay positive!   [End]

Dave, Thanks for your insight. I was skeptical that everything came back fine. I still am very unsure as to what is going on. It’s like all of the sudden I feel worse after this cleanse! It’s frustrating. Any advice as to what I should do next? I am beginning to try a new diet GAPS/FODMAP etc. I’m really trying to fix my diet because it has been very poor in the last month or so due to me be frightened of the pain. Just a shot in the dark but maybe it has something to do with my gallbladder? I know burping and indigestion could be symptoms of that. Not entirely sure. I’m sure my l ...

Unfortunately I’ve tried to do a rotation for 3 or 4 days and it really hasn’t helped so I don’t know what I am reacting to. The reaction can happen immediately or sometimes can happen hours later. What I can’t stand is the throat coughing/swelling feeling. I’m really looking to start doing a GAPS and low FODMAP diet. Being that I have been a vegetarian for 7 years, this is gonna be a challenge. I feel like I can’t eat anything without reacting. I really appreciate your input. I may want to start small with the supplements. Tried a 30 billion probiotic today not even sure I’m react ...

Hi Everyone, Long story short did the Candida Cleanse last month and still feeling badly. I did receive my results from my endoscopy and the tests did not show any bacteria in either the esophagus or small intestine. Doctor said I had mild to severe gastritis and wants to put me on a PPI and recommended a FODMAP diet. I don’t necessarily agree with going on a PPI and wanted to know what everyone else thought here. Here are my symptoms: -Still feeling allergic to everything...try to alternate food but it is becoming real challenging. Suspect it is Leaky Gut or liver issue? -Have ...

Hi, I have posted here before and still am experiencing a lot of difficulties with my gut. Did a Candida Cleanse a month ago and still am not feeling well. Feels like I am still allergic to everything and would really like to try a new a approach. Would like to try the GAPS diet and slowly introduce meat back into my diet. I want to continue to work on fighting any potential fungal infection going on in my stomach. Am seeing my GI tomorrow for results for an endoscopy.

So went to Allergist today and everything came back clean. Food intolerances is what is suspected. Going to have to be a food detective and basically rule stuff out (though it’s hard because everything seems to be setting me off these days...) Thursday I have upper GI appointment.

So I came back from my doctor’s visit. Everything seemed to be normal except Vitamin D. I was not anemic and was tested for Celiac, Lyme, Lupus, etc. Sugar was high but doctor reassured me that this can happen if you have eaten before a test. Which I did. My doctor has diagnosed me with fibromyalgia. Not sure how to feel about this. Any suggestions?

Thanks for the info. I’m sticking to apple cider vinegar and lemon in the morning. Trying to incorporate sauerkraut in diet too. Not sure if I’m having a reaction to that as well. I’ve been doing bland veggies for 2 days. Should get blood work on Tuesday. I think I’m gonna talk to my doctor about returning to meat. I need to make sure my dietary needs are met. Maybe I would start off slow with chicken/bone broth? Eggs are out because I had a bad flare up the other day. Open to any suggestions. Thanks!   [End]

Yeah I am wondering also due to the fact that I have been a vegetarian for so long that my stomach acid production is not great. This could explain the sudden intolerances/muscle pain. Is there a way I can take it as a vegetarian? What would I pair the HCL with? Also I know I am ranting and raving and turning into a paranoid lady but would it be possible that I could have too much acidity in my system? During the duration of this cleanse, I ate more eggs than I normally would but still ate my vegetables etc. I was doing a very low carb diet. Wondering if this could be the reason as wel ...

Had blood work done on Tuesday. Today went to GI doctor. He thinks it could be a thyroid problem. Not entirely sure. I just can’t take the body pain and cold feeling after eating. This happened today after eating a healthy omlette. Makes me very upset because a couple of weeks ago this wasn’t a problem. Gonna await blood results and see where to go from here. In the meantime I would like to ask the following: 1) How can a vegetarian A) Take HCL-will have to ask doctor about this as well before I do it B) How can a vegetarian heal from Leaky Gut?

The shake is called Organic Plant Protein from Renew Life and contains no soy wheat and dairy. Was consuming this during beginning of cleanse and had no difficulties. Last time I ran a fever was on Sunday. Been checking temperature. Still has been okay. If diarrhea continues, I will schedule appointment with GI doctor this upcoming week. Can digestive enzymes cause die off? I took some 30 minutes before a meal and started to experience sever cold pain throughout my body.   [End]

I am going to stop taking the Candida Cleanse and probably take a week off. When I look back at what I was doing, I was taking 2 candida pills and doing a lot of coconut oil. Maybe I can’t handle coconut oil?? In regards to low stomach acid, I am taking digestive enzymes. They do and they don’t help.

Hi, In regards to the jaw pain, I believe it may be sinus related due to the fact that my ears and nose have been extremely dry and clogged. Teeth have gone in and out of pain. I took some Vitamin C last night and it seemed to help with that so far. Although I may have to find something more suitable for my stomach because it caused intense burping and stomach pain. The only related heart related issue that I have is low blood pressure. I am a petite person and very tiny. I am an anxiety sufferer and sometimes go through bouts of anxiety.
