I thought this may be helpful to you...

From this website, http://www.wellatlast.com/articles.html


Taking supplements that up-regulate Phase I while Phase II is "weak," can lead to harm. So nutrients that help both phases do their respective jobs should be taken together, unless you get specific tests that indicate otherwise. Helpful Phase I nutrients include: Vitamins C, E, B1, B2, folic acid (or better the coenzyme form: folinic acid), selenium, zinc, magnesium, molybdenum, carotenoids, glutathione, NAC, alpha lipoic acid, indoles (from cruciferous vegetables) and milk thistle (silymarin.) A low-fat diet can be crucial here. Helpful nutrients for Phase II include magnesium, pantethine, and the amino acids taurine, cysteine, glutamine, glycine, glutathione (crucial here), and sulfur containing foods such as: radish, watercress, eggs, garlic, onions, shallots. A newer Phase II helper supplement is also a great, hypoallergenic source of calcium. This is Calcium D-Glucarate. The D-Glutaric acid part of this molecules aids the Liver's Phase II detoxification pathway known as Glucuronidation. So from the above discussion, taking the B-Vitamins and the anti-oxidants and other nutrients that boost Phase I activity without taking the amino acids, glutathione and/or the sulfur containing foods listed above that would boost Phase II activity can be harmful. Much water is needed for the liver's detoxification pathways. Two or even three 8-10 oz glasses of water a half-hour before eating, is recommended by some experts, just for "normal" digestion. Kidney problems can also occur if insufficient water or diminished liver processing of toxins is present.

Also, congrats on your improvements, and hopefully the gas will pass(excuse the pun).
