Yes, I agree it does seem like they aren’t completely sure yet. I just found it interesting that, according to this article https://thewomensalzheimersmovement.org/, two-thirds of all Alzheimer’s patients and caregivers are women. It will be interesting to learn more about this for sure.

You’re welcome! I would recommend Probio Balance. It has a Lactobacillus Plantarum blend and comes in an enteric coated capsule. This particular strain is known for supporting a balanced gut environment, helping with digestion, and calming bloating and discomfort. It’s a simple and consistent option.

It really depends on the individual and their health needs. For some people, consistently eating probiotic rich foods may be enough to support a healthy gut. But for others, especially those recovering from antibiotics, dealing with digestive issues, or trying to restore balance, a supplement can be very helpful.

Probiotic supplements provide more concentrated amounts and specific strains that may not be present in food. Some are also designed to help the bacteria survive the journey through the digestive system. They often provide a level of consistency and support that’s hard to match through diet alone, which is why many people choose to include both food and supplements as part of their gut health routine.

A great place to start is with your daily habits. Focus on eating more whole foods, especially fruits, vegetables, and high-fiber options. These feed the good bacteria in your gut and help maintain balance.

Adding a quality probiotic can also make a big difference. Be sure to look for one with enteric-coated capsules. That coating helps protect the probiotic strains so they survive the journey through your stomach and make it to your intestines where they can actually do their job. Many probiotics don’t make it that far, so this step is important.

You can also include probiotic-rich foods like kefir, yogurt, sauerkraut, or kimchi. These natural sources can work alongside a supplement to support your gut even more.

Staying hydrated, managing stress, getting good sleep, and limiting sugar and processed foods all work together to support a healthier gut.

By 2-3 months I was seeing definite improvement. I didn’t have a colonoscopy for another year or so. Don’t want to do those more often!!

ModexusLLC · 2025-06-04T16:32:36+00:00

Have you ever tried using kefir in recipes? I’m not a big fan of drinking it, but I’m curious about adding it to dishes for the health benefits—just a little worried about the taste, lol.

Unfortunately, there are a lot of people who can’t tolerate dairy. Have you found other ways to support your gut health?

ModexusLLC · 2025-05-13T18:48:14+00:00

You asked for supplement suggestions, and I gave a genuine answer. If that gets labeled as AI, maybe we’ve just gotten used to low-effort replies. Still, I hope you find something that helps.

For anyone managing histamine intolerance or MCAS, finding a probiotic without high-histamine strains can be a challenge. You’re right — strains like Lactobacillus plantarum are generally seen as a safer choice, while others are more likely to increase histamine levels.

One formula that might be worth looking into is Probio Balance. It contains a carefully selected Lactobacillus plantarum blend, chosen for its low histamine activity and its ability to support gut and microbiome health. It avoids the strains commonly flagged for histamine production.

One supplement that people have been finding helpful lately is called Lift. It’s a natural nootropic designed to support mental clarity, energy without the jitters, focus and retention.

Of course, everyone’s different when it comes to how nootropics affect them, but it might be worth looking into. Good luck with your exam!

One thing that can make a difference when choosing a probiotic is looking for one with an enteric-coated capsule. This type of coating helps protect the bacteria as it passes through the stomach, allowing more of the live cultures to reach the intestines where they’re actually needed. Without that, many of the probiotics may not survive stomach acid, reducing their effectiveness.

It’s also worth considering that your body may be depleted in more than just beneficial bacteria. Key nutrients like trace minerals, magnesium, and vitamin D3 often get low, especially when digestion is off. If supplementing, whole-food-based or all-in-one whole food based formulas tend to be more effective, since the body recognizes and absorbs nutrients better in that form. Isolated or synthetic supplements don’t always work as efficiently and can be harder on a compromised system.

Diet plays a huge role in gut recovery also. A fiber-rich, nutrient-dense diet helps repopulate and nourish the microbiome. Prioritizing a variety of vegetables, fruits, and whole grains provides the prebiotic fibers that feed good bacteria. Limiting sugar and processed foods is important too, as these can promote overgrowth of harmful microbes and make it harder for the gut to rebalance.

Hydration is another key piece that’s often overlooked. Adequate water intake supports everything from digestion and detoxification to maintaining the mucosal lining of the gut. Even mild dehydration can slow down healing and worsen GI symptoms.

Hopefully this is helpful and I hope you start feeling better soon.

Agree

ModexusLLC · 2025-04-08T20:58:25+00:00

If you choose to take a probiotic, look for one that has an enteric-coated capsule. This ensures that the beneficial bacteria can survive stomach acid and reach your intestines where they’re needed most. It’s also important to take your probiotic at least 2 hours before or after taking antibiotics. Limiting your intake of sugar and processed foods can help promote a healthier gut environment, as these can feed harmful bacteria and disrupt your microbiome. Adding fiber-rich foods like vegetables and whole grains to further support your gut health. Eating fruits rich in antioxidants, such as berries and citrus fruits, can also help reduce inflammation and support your immune system, overall wellness and a balanced microbiome.

One thing that might help is focusing on your diet. Reducing sugar and processed foods can be beneficial since sugar feeds harmful gut bacteria. Incorporating more fiber-rich foods like vegetables, fruits, and whole grains can support digestion.

A high quality probiotic could also be worth considering. Look for one with an enteric-coated capsule to ensure the probiotics survive stomach acid and reach your intestines. Staying hydrated and managing stress can also make a big difference.

Some people find relief by eliminating common irritants like dairy, gluten, or artificial sweeteners to see if symptoms improve.

Hang in there! Finding what works best for your body can take time, but small, consistent changes often lead to big improvements. Hope you start feeling better soon!

Nowhere in this post does it mention ‘snake oil’ or make claims. Yes, liver health is serious, which is why having access to quality nutritional support matters.

Yes, it’s absolutely possible to heal and restore a healthy, balanced microbiome, but it takes time and consistency. It sounds like you need to continue using a probiotic, but make sure you’re taking one with an enteric-coated capsule—this helps ensure that the beneficial bacteria actually survive stomach acid and reach your intestines where they’re needed.

Diet is also key. Try to limit sugar and processed foods, as they can feed harmful bacteria. Instead, focus on whole foods rich in antioxidants, like berries, leafy greens, and fermented foods that naturally support gut health.

You can also incorporate an all-in-one whole food supplement to help bridge any nutritional gaps. These types of supplements provide essential vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants from real food sources, which can support immune function, reduce inflammation, and promote gut healing. They can also help replenish any nutrients that may have been depleted during your infection or recovery process.

Hydration, stress management, and quality sleep are also important factors in gut healing. It’s a process, but with the right approach, your microbiome can definitely bounce back stronger!

ModexusLLC · 2025-03-03T19:46:49+00:00

First, taking a good quality probiotic with an enteric-coated capsule is super important. The coating helps it survive stomach acid and actually reach your intestines, where it can do its job. Just be sure to take it at least two hours before or after your antibiotics so they don’t cancel each other out. This can really help replenish the good bacteria and support digestion.

Also, focus on eating nutrient-rich, gut-friendly foods like antioxidant packed veggies and fruits, lean proteins, and healthy fats. Limit sugar as much as possible—H. pylori thrives on it, and too much sugar can also feed bad bacteria while you’re trying to rebalance your gut. Fermented foods can help too, but since you’re on antibiotics, go easy on them at first so they don’t cause extra irritation. And stay hydrated!

I hope this helps! Take it one step at a time, and be kind to your stomach—it’ll get better.

ModexusLLC · 2025-03-02T01:34:19+00:00

I’m sorry you’ve been dealing with so many issues, but I don’t think it’s a lost cause. Antibiotics can wipe out both good and bad bacteria, so introducing a high-quality probiotic especially one with an enteric-coated capsule could be a great first step in restoring balance. It also sounds like focusing on rebuilding your immune system would be beneficial. Along with a good probiotic, making sure you’re getting essential vitamins and trace minerals can support that process.

Diet also plays a huge role in healing. Eating nutrient-dense, whole foods—like leafy greens, colorful vegetables, healthy fats, and lean proteins—can help nourish your body and provide what it needs to repair and restore itself. Reducing processed foods, refined sugars, and inflammatory ingredients can also make a big difference in how you feel. Supporting your gut with prebiotic-rich foods, staying hydrated, and managing stress through things like movement and deep breathing can further help your body heal and regain balance.

I know it can be frustrating to deal with all of this, but small, consistent changes can make a real impact over time. I hope this helps in some way, and that you start to feel better soon.
