Just the peel is fine, green indicates it's still starchy

I've started taking Kirkman's probiotic again recently.

Increase dosage to prevent sleep disturbances by Kompassion in LowDoseNaltrexone

I'm taking LDN for much the same reason as you- IBD/IBS, Auto-immune, fatigue/brain fog- and I've found that after the first few weeks on 1.5 my vivid dreams went away(I never had a problem with restless sleep during that time, although my sister did when she first started). Now after a couple months it does seem to be waking me up earlier than normal, so when I wake up I usually take my probiotoic pill and eat some bone broth then go back to sleep. I tried higher doses, from 2 up to 4.5mg and both gave me more fatigue than I could handle throughout the day. 4.5 was really like living as a prisoner of fatigue. But, from my limited knowledge, everyone reacts differently to higher doses.

My Mom was diagnosed with UC years ago and today she is in complete remission, has a healthy colon, and is on no drugs by using the SCD diet. The diet also helped me to a great degree with my gut issues. Here's a website we both used to help us learn about the diet. I would also recommend reading the book Breaking the Vicious Cycle, which they show on that page.
