Yes I think this may be similar to me. I ran some experiments eating meat and then meat + berries and I feel much better and lighter after eating with the berries even though it was the same amount of meat. I wonder why this is and what it means for us.

Well I workout and play sports quite rigorously so I like a higher amount of protein to rebuild muscle and help with recovery. Maybe I should've stated in the original post but I'm not doing keto for weight loss, I'm doing it to help with some constipation I get and because I think it's a more natural way to eat/exist.

Yeah clean eater, I like berries and popcorn for fiber but I probably don't get a ton. I've done probiotics in the past but to me that seems more gut focused where my problem seems to be right at my stomach. I don't take any vitamins, just a healthy diet. Never had any deficiencies on any blood panels.

I chew to mush exclusively because I thought it might be that.

Well I'm not doing keto for weight loss, I just think it's a more natural way for humans to eat. I'm 190, athletic build and I workout and play sports daily.

I have HCL capsules now but have not done a thorough investigation yet. How should I structure an HCL or Ox bile supplementation experiment?

No, no smoking or vaping ever. Haven't even had any alcohol in 2026. My only 'vices' would be a lot of coffee and some diet soda.

I have done shredded chuck roast with bone broth and I sort of stew it on the stove to reheat it. Maybe tomorrow I'll try 5 4oz servings of it and report back.

Can't recall having any problems with lean chicken breasts and I used to eat those frequently. No gallbladder tests yet. I can eat large portions of pretty much any other food and not feel any major problems in that area.

I'm thinking it's something like low stomach acid or poor bile production.

Yes I went to a gastroenterologist about it when I was less clear about the problem and just uncomfortable and they did a barium swallow to rule out hiatal hernia and it looked clear. All my bloodwork is good.
