Your on maca though arent you Missb? I was thinking of continuing maca for energy since this gut thing wipes me out. BUT... i meet with the naturopath again in 3 weeks and il clear it with her, see if she thinks its good or not and the estrogen link if any.

What are you doing again MIssB, SOO sorry to ask. You get lost in peoples programmes etc. I thought you were diet, maca, massage/considering noogling?

Im somewhat limited till i get off this no sugar kick too. Means i cant have alot of fruit NO carbs either. No beans. Its protein and veg really - so translated, a horible tasteless diet! I cant go vegetarian or vegan at this stage, too much greens create too much gas. I DO need a good multi, but one from wholefoods and no probiotics in it!

Oh yeah I think maca is okay for you-- esp if it is giving you energy. You need that <3 let me know what she says

Well right now I am doing massage, maca, eating healthy (fruits veggies) no sugar, caffeine, exercise, water water water! as far as the things I am taking they are: multi vitamin (breast health supporting), hair skin nails multi vitamin, collagen, larginine, fish oil, vitamin d, maca. but I want to add in some creams like volufline and yes, noogle.

I think simple things go a long way-- esp considering how much turmoil your body seems to be going through, it seems to be doing more damage than good :/ (excluding maca and SB which seems to have worked for you)

I think pro biotics are really good. I am looking for a good one myself.. but there are natural pro biotics too! I am not sure if you can eat them, but anything fermented is a good pro biotic. IE. kimchi and yogurt is a good one too. Has to have active, live cultures in it.. not the sugary ones!

and yeah that diet seems sucky :/ but there has to be a away around it.. protein and veggie can be good. how are you with spices? I am assuming you can have meat bc you said protein, right?

not sure if those are helpful-- I looked up meat/veggie recipes!

Thanks love. Il look into the links. Spices are ok, some i have to watch out for.
But yeh once i reduce the overgrowth i can get back into really good things like broths and more food choices
Probiotics are good yeh, my naturo seems to think going more the food based way like kimchi, sauerkraut, kefirs etc are best. Probiotics are costly too and soo many strains its confusing. I think for a medical condition yeh go for probiotics, for everyday, the good youghurts etc and foods as you say
Apparently making your own milk kefir is the BEST way to get good bacteria into your system. Im wary of making it but you can buy the grains on Iherb for $8 and make your own!

Have you ever heard of "raw milk"? I am not exactly 100% what it is, but it's suppose to be the best kind of milk for you and really healthy and good. Some lady who is really into healthy foods was telling me about it, and she has IBS too. hm! I'll have to look into it more, but maybe if you're interested you can give it a google
