Since taking accutane some years ago, my gut looks permanently pregnant.
It's not a matter of losing fat, as I still had it while underweight on paleo.
Focusing on hormones hasn't solved the issue and a recent MRI showed no organ damage.
Betaine HCL and digestive enzymes didn't reduce the bloating either.
So now I'd like to experiment with some herbal antibiotics to see if bad bacteria or parasites could be involved.
I was thinking of trying the one by Pure Encapsulations owing to its good reputation.
The product is called "Microdefense w/Oregano" and contains the following:
Berberine sulfate
100mg
✝
Olive (olea europaea) leaf extract (standardised to contain minimum 15% oleuropein)
100mg
✝
Sweet wormwood (artemisia annua) aerial parts extract
200mg
✝
Clove (syzygium aromaticum) bud powder
75mg
✝
Oregano (Origanum vulgare) leaf and flower oil extract
100
mg
Could anyone give a honest opinion on whether this is a safe/effective supplement (the ingredients and the dosages)?
Any advice is greatly appreciated.
