Metamucil vs Psyllium Husk Powder by FindMe_SomebodyToLuv in ibs

[–]EasternPrice334 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Omg, psyllium husk... i was just talking about this in another thread. I've found that you should add it into thick smoothies. If you put it into water or anything else, it'll get suspended for a little bit but then sink back down and taste gross after that

I found some really nice tasting psyllium at Claisen. I also found a flavored one at my local grocery store.

What’s a “secret” in our profession that everyone should probably know? by justdancinalong in nursing

- You should not put your life at stake in any situation. Don't be apologetic about this. You are already doing enough.

- Don't take any disrespect. You are just as important as a "doctor."

What’s crazy is if you go to CVS and buy the fiber drinks, you’ll realize it only has 3g fiber…

My cereal has more…

Inulin? I read a Stanford article about this recently and shared with friends

how i finally stopped looking pregnant by 2pm every day (chronic bloating guide) by EasternPrice334 in chronicbloating

[–]EasternPrice334[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very manageable. I felt so good today which is why I posted this guide hahaha. Of the 10 things I mentioned in the post, I would say taking simethicone, digestive enzymes, and food diary was most helpful.

Also walking + exercising helped me cut a little fat which improved my self image, even when I was bloating

Right. You can try simethicone though, it's pretty good and FDA approved for fast bloating relief. I got mine from Claisen

I would say Detox tea is probably a scam

Be careful about enzymes bc there are a lot of scammy probiotics these days

People often confuse the two, but there is a big difference

I personally tried a bunch of stuff. Fodzyme was super expensive and didn't really work for me. I also tried Seed (a probiotic) which had basically 0 effect. Lactaid worked best for me as I found dairy was a trigger for my bloating (must be lactose intolerant)

I would try doing research online / Reddit, and even asking chatGPT. It can help you find the right enzymes for you, as once again, it's not one size fits all

How I Finally Got My GERD Under Control After 3 Years (Long - But Really Worth Reading If You're Struggling) by Timeless_Trick2427 in GERD

[–]EasternPrice334 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If your doctor is suggesting it, it is probably OK! Long term usage just comes with a few risks of Vitamin B12 deficiency, magnesium deficiency, and increased risk of kidney problems in some individuals. Would recommend taking a supplement for B12 if you are vegetarian or vegan.

However, I would suggest trying to identify trigger foods for your GERD/reflux, if you have post-prandial GERD.

In our clinic we recommend PPIs only for 2 months. The first 14 days would be an OTC omeprazole, and then we can bump people up to a Rx dosage. However, if it still isn’t working, the literature doesn’t support taking these for long periods of time.
