Ok that's a lot ty - you use a couple grams slippery elm in warm water? I've been putting it in small amounts but stays quite powdery.MSM I started with tiny pinches and worked up to about a Tablespoon. All in slippery elm gel/slurry.
SF722 - 10 pills 3
I read your post about getting sulfur through the digestive tract with it makes sense , plus slippery elm has anti-inflammatory action on colonic cells by itself I saw in a study so good combo
Started with the MSM - slippery elm & Thorne undecyn yesterday.
Check this out so I haven't gone done the fungal route for this until now. Since looking into peat stuff recently I've been drinking sugared water in the mornings 45g (more than typical).
Well my tongue typically has a film on it (which I read before can be fungal but can also can be food particles etc). Since I started more sugar I noticed the film layer increased significantly. The bloating got way worse all over. And I was like "why the **** do I feel a bit drunk/tipsy right now?" .
Then I remembered this case of a man with auto-brewery syndrome. He had fungal overgrowth, and when you feed fungus sugar it produces ethanol. This man had high blood alcohol just from the fungus in his gut. Crazy. Stopped the sugar and famotidine for now will reintroduce sugar later when gut is in better state Auto-brewery Syndrome - StatPearls - NCBI Bookshelf
So yeah made me think the fungal angle is worth a try. I notice bile in my stool sometimes when I do go so maybe reversing fungus to yeast form / killing it, and restoring bile/ increasing stomach acid is the play.
And for ppl wondering about the undecylenate Vs SF722 if unavailable . From what I read the undecylenate form sounds good but it needs to be paired with an acid increaser and a capsule that can bypass the stomach . Maybe the Swanson version wasn't effective for the person who posted because it only contains a small amount of betaine and the capsule tech might not be good enough. Thornes version has more betaine and "time sorb" capsules so maybe better
