Any idea why my son is having problems eating protein? Diagnoses of gut dysbiosis and candida. Absolute nightmare to increase his weight.
Does hemp seed make gut dysbiosis worse due to the iron levels or just the protein in the seed?
Protein is making his condition much worse. Bringing up huge volumes of air, wheezing. Can't get him off of cimetidine because he has GORD.
He has cold limbs, lethargic, lost to much weight, never smiles, seems depressed but can't communicate because of disability, reflux, regressed. After each meal he eats he goes downhill as the day goes on. He has developed really bad seizures since this all started. Severe food intolerances. Dietician prescribed emulsified mct as he can't tolerate any fats if not emulsified, taking liquigen which I feel is helping with the seizures. He seems to be suffering from the shakes a bit, toxicity?
He is taking 10 mils of diflucan per day. Prescribed antibiotics, tried first time in small dose but had to stop, tried again and made him I'll. Dietician tried elemental formula but made him I'll again, this was when the protein problems started and got worse each time tried antibiotics. He can not tolerate probiotics at all, they make him I'll. Tried Kiki soil based and lactobacillus gg, both caused candida problems and lactobacillus gg had a devastating effect on his brain, immune system and he developed cold limbs. Then was prescribed bacterial medication and started to loose massive weight. Lived nightmare ever since. Can I get his weight up? Can I get him better?

This is a reply to # 2,232,916Fungal candida and past antibiotic use create low levels of HCL in the stomach. This leads to a loss of absorption of protein, B12, folic acid, iron, calcium, magnesium, zinc, and other minerals. Red meat can be especially difficult to digest with low levels of HCL.
Low levels of HCL also lead to liver/gall bladder congestion and difficulty with fats. Low HCL also affects pancreatic digestion, intestinal flora and pH, and parasites.
What's his past history?
Does he have trauma or stress in his history? - Re: Protein problems. #69242

This is a reply to # 2,232,916Thanks for your reply, he has severe autism. He had oat test done that shows oxidative stress, he is in ketosis too. He had bad reactions to the probiotics, especially lactobacillus gg, don't know why! Lost his energy production. For some reason the probiotics caused changes in his body that did not suit him. His gut dysbiosis is terrible, nightmare to deal with. Tiny amounts of food effect it. He just wants to drink water to deal with the bloating. He is so ill I fear for his life. I feel he is trapped in a vicious circle and don't know how to get him out. He had the oat test done before this protein problem occurred. How do I improve his gut flora when he can't take probiotics and can't tolerate strong herbs. I feel helpless and hopeless. Is there any gentle ways to improve his gut dysbiosis? I feel then I could get more food into him. Are there any foods that don't feed dysbiosis?

This is a reply to # 2,233,759He has GORD, his reflux gets worse if I take him off the antacid, any ideas? It would be good to get him of the antacid onto natural products, if he could tolerate them! He is very super sensitive. I think the gut dysbiosis make the reflux problem much worse and is the reason he does not improve. Do you think his gut dysbiosis would improve with stomach acid?

This is a reply to # 2,233,7694 years ago the hospital told me to double up his calcium supplement, inflammation resulted. He was put onto ppi for a few months then ranitidine, there was improvement. He was diagnosed with GORD 2 years later via endoscopy. Prescribed lansoprazole long term and cimetidine. He can't cope with the glutamate levels in bone broth and neither aloe vera. His food intolerances are worse than they use to be since the probiotics but the antifungal helps him to eat some veg. He is on a very limited diet, avocado is his main ingredient in each meal. No grains. No sugars. Very low carb, struggling with protein. Microscopic amounts of oregano is having no ill effects, obviously it would not in tiny specks mixed into his food and I did manage to get more protein into him this last couple of days even with those teeny amounts, shame I can't give greater amounts but impossible for him.
