Ray Peat has written and spoken at length about how to prevent and treat infections of the gut by bacteria that eat starch or fiber. As far as I know, he hasn't talked as much about protein-eating bacteria and how to protect your gut from them.
Would the Peaty antibiotics (penicillin, erythromycin, and the tetracyclines) work as well against protein-eating bacteria as against other kinds? I assume that raw carrots, mushrooms, and charcoal would work about as well no matter what the bacteria eat.
Do you know of other remedies that would help against protein-eating bacteria? Would IdeaLabs' CamphoSal work?
Could fungi in the gut also eat poorly-digested protein?
I understand that in the medium to long term, the best remedies may be good nutrition (quantity and quality) and good thyroid function. I am interested in what someone could do who has a severe infection and needs relief from the infection soon in order to eat properly.
Thanks in advance.
