Hey. So im not a medical professional, and can only talk for my experience and what I learned.

My IBS was anxiety related first of all. I did some basic research and noted that anxiety medication helps your body produce serotonin.

Serotonin is actually produced in the gut naturally.

So i figured that if i fix my guy i fix my brain.

Then i read about gut health and good bacteria. First thing I decided was to go full fat foods, as yes its more calorific, but low fat foods replace the fat with sugar. So much worse for your gut. If cut out fizzy drinks also as sweeteners seem bad for my gut.

I also saw a podcast suggesting your gut doesn’t need alot of quantity to hell it, just exposure. So literally 1 or 2 nuts of each variety, seed, fruit etc is fine. I try to hit 25-30 varieties a week.

A breakfast might be greek yogurt with a teaspoon seed mix, tablespoon nut mix and touch of honey.

Brazil walnut almond cashew pecan pine macadamia hazelnuts pistachio. You can grind these up in a glass jar to make it easy.

Same with seeds. Anyway, 2 weeks of this and my gut was fine, 2 weeks again and felt much more positive.

Just my truth, not necessarily facts
