5+ years with digestive problems, worsened with Paleo diet.
I've tried very strong probiotic, a couple courses of anti biotics, low carb, high carb, low and high fat and always on the lower range of protein due to digestion.
I'm not finding any relief with years of trying and it's really taking a toll on my life. Perhaps related but I've had low back pain for over a decade now and I'm going to see a chiropractor next month for a though assessment.
I find eating lower starch helps but mentally it's not really good. I avoid gluten for 90% of the time.
Taking sips of apple cider vinegar with meals helps a little but it's not ideal.
Bowel movements are 2-3 times per week with my IBS - C. Cascara once a week either has little effect or I'm sat on the toilet all day.
I take a long time to eat my meals but once I'm done I feel completely drained of energy and just want to go to sleep, walking doesn't help (I work in a office)
Perhaps digestive enzymes?
Typical diet (around 2000 a day - any more I physically cannot move)
Greek yogurt (FAGE 0% fat) or Cottage cheese (low fat)
Goat milk (2L per week)
Blueberries
Gelatin (hydrolysate in coffee a few times a week)
oysters twice a week
a little coconut oil for cooking
chicken breast (sometimes with salad)
gummy bears
herbal teas like lemon and ginger
beef once or twice a week
prawns (shrimp) once or twice per week, again with salad which isn't ideal
Red light on thyroid and stomach twice a week for a few minutes
