@james7a, I find it difficult to take information in via videos and audio, as my concentration comes and goes and I miss stuff. I also find it a very time-consuming way of getting info.
If you do find the time, maybe you could list the dietary changes and probiotics that you have used in a blog post, so that people can find it easily. Either that or in the information section of your profile.
I don't know if you've listed them in this thread, but it's much too long to search, especially if it isn't there!
No animal products (Although I can't say it would effect my progress, I just choose not to)
No dairy (I believe it's the most important thing to cut out when chronically ill)
No Gluten( I plan to add this back at some point, however I'm not risking anything for now)
No Oils
No Soy (Although I had a fermented soy product which seemed fine, normal soy made me breakout)
No Peanut butter( Iused to love this but it breaks me out and doesn't make me feel very good, since I cut out bread I dont really need any butter)
No added sugar products
No artifical stuff like aspartame etc
This is a very restrictive diet but from my experience it was nessecary to have a limited diet for a solid foundation of healing. It helped me narrow my problems down to events throughout the day etc knowing that my diet wasn't the cause.
I currently take no probiotics however I am adding water kefir back in purely because it is a damn tasty fizzy drink
The probiotics do not hurt either!
As always, feel free to ask me anything at all! I recently posted a video showing 15 things I've changed in my daily life so If you want me to state it as a list here I will do that
