So try bone broth, gelatine powder or hydrolysed collagen. I personally use gelatine powder in my morning smoothies.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For Leaky Gut Syndrome<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Consume 5g Glutamine Powder on an empty stomach<\/li>\n<li>Take a probiotic supplement and\/or fermented drink<\/li>\n<li>Supplement with gelatine and\/or collagen<\/li>\n<li>BPC 157 is also good for leaky gut &#8211; but research on humans is limited &#8211; please research yourself!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration:underline;\">References<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Harvard Gazette<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/news.harvard.edu\/gazette\/story\/2009\/05\/glutamine-supplements-show-promise-in-treating-stomach-ulcers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Glutamine supplements show promise in treating stomach ulcers<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Healthy Gut Flora<\/h2>\n<p>Okay, so you need something to keep your stomach&#8217;s mucousal lining in good nick, now you need to look at your gut flora. This can go to shite if you eat too much sugar, deep fried food and especially after taking anti-biotics.<\/p>\n<p>Fermented foods or drinks such as kefir, kombuccha and\/or sauerkraut are a good idea &#8211; just start off slowly.<\/p>\n<p>If you don&#8217;t fancy or enjoy fermented foods, then consider purchasing a supplement. There are loads of probitoic supplement on Amazon but VSL3 if the one that I&#8217;ve heard touted by Dr Rhonda Patrick. Buy it direct from the website though, as this why it comes in an ice-pack the following day.<\/p>\n<p>For more information, take a look at the video below featuring 3 proper cheerful bastards:<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/gOZcbNw7sng?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-GB&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span><br \/>\nAs I&#8217;m writing this &#8211; one of my friends has just messaged me on FB to say that VSL3 has literally changed his life and sorted his IBS &#8211; so it&#8217;s worth giving it a go. I think it&#8217;s about \u00a320 including delivery in the UK.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vsl3.co.uk\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/www.vsl3.co.uk\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Note that when you first try probiotic foods or supplements, you might feel worse for the first few days &#8211; but once your stomach starts adjusting, you should feel cushdy.<\/p>\n<p>To help digestion, try diluted apple cider vinegar before meals too. It should help you to digest your meal better &#8211; thanks to the acidity and the digestive enzymes found within it (allegedly). Some people swear by apple cider vinegar, whilst others say it does nothing. I&#8217;m still using it though!<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Cut out sugar<\/li>\n<li>Consume a probiotic like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vsl3.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">VSL3<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Try a fermented drink like Kefir or food like sauerkraut<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>FODMAP Diet<\/h2>\n<p>Ah the FODMAP diet. This has been my saviour but also it&#8217;s what turns people off when I try and advice them in regards to IBS.<\/p>\n<p>I used to have about 7 mega dumps per day before I knew of the FODMAP diet &#8211; cutting out dairy and wheat has completely changed my life, and my bowel habits but only those with a good amount of self discipline are able to follow the diet, as so many nice foods are out of bounds!<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"8443\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/blackbeltwhitehat.com\/en\/2017\/11\/05\/how-to-treat-ibs-increase-gut-health\/fodmapfoods\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackbeltwhitehat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/fodmapfoods.png?fit=4356%2C6203&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"4356,6203\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"FODMAPfoods\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackbeltwhitehat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/fodmapfoods.png?fit=719%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-8443\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackbeltwhitehat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/fodmapfoods.png?resize=4356%2C6203&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"the FODMAP Diet\" width=\"4356\" height=\"6203\" \/><\/p>\n<p>As you can see, the list is pretty extensive but for me &#8211; cutting out wheat and dairy was life changing&#8230;<\/p>\n<h2>Cannabis?<\/h2>\n<p>I can&#8217;t say that CBD oil did a whole lot for my IBS, however, I was only taking a tiny amount as it&#8217;s soo bloody expensive. There is however mountains of evidence now starting to pile up for <a href=\"https:\/\/blackbeltwhitehat.com\/supplement-reviews\/cbd-oil\/\">CBD oil <\/a>and medical cannabis as a direct way of treating a range of inflammatory bowel disorders.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some of the abstracts from just a few studies:<\/p>\n<h3>Clinical endocannabinoid deficiency (CECD): can this concept explain therapeutic benefits of cannabis in migraine, fibromyalgia, irritable bowel syndrome and other treatment-resistant conditions?<\/h3>\n<h4>OBJECTIVES:<\/h4>\n<p>This study examines the concept of clinical endocannabinoid deficiency (CECD), and the prospect that it could underlie the pathophysiology of migraine, fibromyalgia, irritable bowel syndrome, and other functional conditions alleviated by clinical cannabis.<\/p>\n<h4>CONCLUSION:<\/h4>\n<p><strong>Migraine, fibromyalgia, IBS and related conditions display common clinical, biochemical and pathophysiological patterns that\u00a0suggest an underlying clinical endocannabinoid deficiency that may be suitably treated with cannabinoid medicines.<\/strong><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>This case review\u00a0examines the way in which cbd oil can ease the suffering related to inflammatory bowel disease<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"article-header__title\">Cannabidiol in Inflammatory Bowel Diseases: A Brief Overview<\/h3>\n<p>In the past,\u00a0<em>Cannabis<\/em>\u00a0preparations have been considered new promising pharmacological tools in view of their anti-inflammatory role in IBD as well as other gut disturbances. However, their use in the clinical therapy has been strongly limited by their psychotropic effects. CBD is a very promising compound since it shares the typical cannabinoid beneficial effects on gut lacking any psychotropic effects. For years, its activity has been enigmatic for gastroenterologists and pharmacologists, but now it is evident that this compound may interact at extra-cannabinoid system receptor sites, such as peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma.\u00a0T<strong>his strategic interaction makes CBD as a\u00a0potential\u00a0candidate for the development of a new class of anti-IBD drugs.<\/strong><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Another study looking at cbd and gut health \u2013 remember that gut inflammation and permeability has been linked to systemic inflammation and depression.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"article-header__title\">Cannabinoids mediate opposing effects on inflammation-induced intestinal permeability<\/h3>\n<p><b>CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS<\/b>\u00a0These findings suggest that locally produced endocannabinoids, acting via CB<sub>1<\/sub>\u00a0receptors play a role in mediating <strong>changes in permeability with inflammation, and that\u00a0phytocannabinoids have therapeutic potential for reversing the disordered intestinal permeability associated with inflammation.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The final thing that I would recommend, is to consume lots of anti-inflammatory foods. Ginger, tart cherry juice (make sure you tolerate it okay, cherries are on the FODMAP exclusion list), kale and oily fish.<\/p>\n<p>Reduce omega 6, vegetable oils and deep fried foods as these cause inflammation.<\/p>\n<h2>Summary<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Add gelatine and\/or glutamine to your diet for your gut lining<\/li>\n<li>Sort your gut flora with a probiotic supplement<\/li>\n<li>Cut out sugar and deep fried foods for gut health &amp; reduced inflammation<\/li>\n<li>Try the FODMAP diet &#8211; especially reducing dairy &#8211; try for 3 days<\/li>\n<li>Look into CBD oil<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/blackbeltwhitehat.com\/diet-plans\/intermittent-fasting-diet-plan\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Intermittent Fasting<\/a> is also worth a try.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Good luck!
