Re: Reasons for bloating? Gonna break down my IBS once and for all
Thanks for your answer, but that seems a bit like an oversimplification?
I can track the problems down, and know exactly when I started having gut issues, which was after a long period of stress, anxiety and panic attacks (as it usually is, it seems). About three years ago now.
I've voted out parasites, since I donät seem to have many of the usual symptoms, but I still tried so many different cleanses (in case I would have it) and never experienced anything different (exept for with dr Schulzes intestinal formulas, but that was just cleansing the stomach, and I don't think id had to do with parasites).
Had a small candidaovergrowth earlier, nut that seems to be gone.
Never had any real dieoffs, and never had any real negative reactions towards any certain kinds of foods like people usually have.
Actualy I'm leaning towards thinking it's some kind of probiotic imbalance. I've ended my experiment with all the antimicrobals, and am trying the approach with a lot of probiotics instead, with homemade yogurt and sauerkraut. Actually it seems to be going pretty well, although it's to early to say I guess. But my stomach feels a bit better than it has before.
I'm also using a TCM approach, which I think has made a huge difference earlier. I have a qi-deficiency and probably an imbalance between the spleen and the liver - which it seems like everyone with these problems have in some kind of way. I'm feeling hopeful, let's see what happends!
What kind of problems do you have, in terms of parasites? Candida?
If anyone has any other ideas or thoughts, please write on! If this turns out to be a dead end, as so many approaches has yet, I want to have something new to back up on. And i would love to understand the problem of IBS better allover.
Peace.
