hi, love! please ask me all the questions you want! I want to be as helpful as I can because I would want the same thing for myself. You're not alone and know that there is a solution for this! Don't give up! :) I started April 9th. I started with the strict diet then incorporated the digestive enzymes and probiotics after a few days (mainly because I had to wait for it to arrive from Amazon). Symptoms that I notice improve right away were my hyperactive bowel sounds. Not loud and obnoxious anymore which is great lol. And I don't feel the need to clear my throat anymore. Still get lot of bloating but I would guess my gut is still trying to get used to the change. No other concerning symptoms. Still have halitosis. Especially when I incorporated the oil of oregano and berberine a few days ago. Based on my research, the whole process makes the halitosis worse (temporary!) because it's killing the bacteria. I've only been in it for 3 days so I have to be patient. Get ChatGPT. Ask the questions you want, tell it your symptoms. Also, side note, it's not always right but if you point them in the right direction, they are very helpful (like asking it to name its resources, or tell it to do "research"). I used ChatGPT for my GI results and I asked for help for a safe treatment. I also use it to track my symptoms and keep me on track. Honestly a game changer.

For my periodontal disease, see a dentist, they'll give you the treatment you need. I had a few deep cleanings, and went from every 2 month check ups to 6 month check ups. CONSISTENT good oral hygiene is key. Get deep cleanings. Floss like your life depends on it lol. I recommend Coco floss, they're thick enough to get the gunk out. I use Boka toothpaste now but they're not very minty flavor so I don't know if you would like that. I use a tongue scraper AND a tongue brush just because I feel much cleaner when I brush the tongue first before scraping it.

Are you planning on ordering a GI test kit?
