When treating the gut, start with THIS check list:

1. Have you address inflammation (diet and life changes first, then metabolic or weight issues, and if need support meriva curcumin + boswellia, or even peptides like KPV)

2. Have you address digestion
- stomach acid via sufficient zinc, swedish bitters or arugula
- bile support via taurine, glycine, folate, B2, choline and b12
- iberogast/magnesium citrate if constipated
- digestive enzymes if low on test, have thyroid issues, or can't digest fats + starch
- trialled removing FODMAPs: starch, or other trigger foods – may need an elimination diet

3. Are you supporting any immune issue?
- may need to inhibit mast cell degranulation (boswellia, PEA, black seed oil, passionflower)
- support break down of histamine (via methylation nutrients, vitamin C, copper, DAO)
- elimination diet sometimes

4. Does your motility need support?
- if constipation (kiwi, iberagast, mg citrate, PHGG)
- if diarrhea (PHGG, fibre/starch in food as can tolerate)

5. Do you need to oxidative stress
- fruits and pomegranate juice as tolerated
- NAC with selenium and molybdenum
- black seed oil

6. Ensure you support the gut lining
- bone broth, collagen, glycine, gelatin
- zinc l carnosine
- s boulardii
- glutamine,
- peptides like BPC-157, larazotide, GHK or TBC500
- foods like okra and resistant starch as tolerated

7. Other factors
- sleep
- moderate exercise
- 10% calorie deficit but nutrient excess
- proper light environment practices and sufficient sunlight
- check cronometer for nutrients you're hitting, supplement what you aren't
- walk lots
- meditate or pray

This is a spring board to then work into your microbial/biofilm issues [truncated]
