I'm the one who took Phellostatin and destroyed my gut flora. You had told me to take Kefir and oat bran, etc. It's been a couple of months now since doing so and am still not back to a normal bm. And to make matters worse, since 70% of our immune system is in our gut, I've been sick 3 out of the last 4 weeks! I'm very concerned about my immune system and its ability to protect me.
What can I do, please?- Re: Hveragethi--Gut flora still not ... markk

This is a reply to # 1,661,789I'd recommend getting a stool analysis.
Don't panic, most people on here have the same problem, its the reason we have candida. We killed of the beneficial bacteria with Antibiotics & now some dysbiotic bacteria or yeast is out of control.
By getting a stool analysis you can find out your beneficial bacteria levels, and also find out if you have dysbiotic flora or yeast as I mentioned. By finding out exactly what you have you can devise a plan of attack much better. Stool analysis also comes with a list of agents that your candida (for example) is suspeptible to.
This is a better plan I think than just assuming you have candida. You may have some other bad bacteria overgrowth.
Kefir is suppose to be good. I was reacting badly to it though, I'm gonna try again I may have messed up making it.
One of the better probiotics apparently is VL3. ITs expensive, but from all accounts I've read its the best there is maybe you should look into it.
Hope this helps

This is a reply to # 1,661,828I ran into a Dr of "functional medicine" at Max Muscle. And he immediately said that I probably have a small intestinal bacterial infection. So, it's interesting that you'd say that. Thank you.

This is a reply to # 1,661,789It is very important to look after the health of your intestines. I had candida for over 8 years and managed to get rid of it, but it did take a prolonged effort(took a year). Here is a link which describes both my original anti-candida protocol and also includes the protocol that I would use today if I had candida. Here is the link:
The link gives dosages, and includes back-up links as evidence of efficacy and usefulness against candida.

Probiotics are great for helping to restore some of the flora, but no probiotic sources is going to restore all the flora since there are so many strains that inhabit the intestines. So if you can add other cultured food sources such as fresh sauerkraut, miso, etc. these will supply other strains of beneficial bacteria that the kefir may not provide. The more strains of beneficial bacteria that can be provided the better. And keep up with the fibers to help feed the bacteria.
A few other things that you can add that will help with the flora and the immune system are konjac gum and yucca root powder.
