so i’m always reading your comments getting ideas for videos and someone mentioned what to do with an inflamed digestive tract that’s what i’m going to talk about the first thing i want to bring up is what is the function of your digestive tract i’m mainly talking about your stomach your small intestine and the large intestine the main function is to break down your food the macronutrients carbs proteins and fats and then absorb the micro nutrients okay pull it in through the digestive tract at its smallest level in other words you’re eating protein but we’re absorbing amino acids you’re eating fat and you’re absorbing essential fatty acids you’re eating carbohydrates and you’re extracting the vitamins and minerals and then part of the undigested fiber is taken care of from your own microbes if you have any inflammation in any part of your digestive tract you’re going to have a very difficult time absorbing okay there’s a condition called malabsorption that means you’re just not getting the absorption of the nutrients into the body and that could occur from inflammation in the lining of your colon or scar tissue that was created from the inflammation so now we have a situation because we’re not going to get the full absorption of vitamins minerals essential fatty acids certain parts of your digestive tract absorb certain nutrients okay so if we can identify what part of your digestive tract is damaged let’s say the the last part of the ilium that’s the last part of the small intestine then we know you’re not going to be able to absorb the amino acids as well or the bile salts so you won’t get that recycling and chances are you’re going to be deficient in bile which means you’ll probably be deficient in vitamin a d e and k and also 90 of all your digestion occurs in this small intestine okay so if your stomach doesn’t have enough acid or your gallbladder doesn’t have enough bile or your pancreas is not releasing the enzymes and you’re going to get something that ferments too much so you’re going to get a lot of bloating and pain in your small intestine and so there’s a number of things that create inflammation it could be from taking antibiotics it could come from antacids it could come from pathogens because you don’t have enough acid in your stomach it could come from food poisoning tapeworms gluten grains omega-6 oils highly inflammatory it could also come from food allergies could be from nuts or dairy or it could be from fiber because there’s already pre-existing damage and it’s just tearing up your colon so regardless of the cause of inflammation there’s several things that you can do number one you may want to go carnivore for a while because people with gut issues do better on carnivore at least for a couple months okay they don’t do well on a very high fiber diet unless there’s maybe a small amount of fermented vegetables or cooked vegetables they can possibly handle that but depending on the damage you might not want to add fiber however this is interesting normally wheat has gluten it’ll tear up your stomach but if you have wheatgrass juice a high quality i’m talking organic raw wheatgrass juice or it’s powder that comes without the gluten that comes without the fiber and that can create some major relief in your intestinal tract especially if there’s any problems with ulcers and inflammation or irritation or gastritis because the wheatgrass juice powder it’s without the fiber it’s not wheatgrass this wheatgrass juice powder has a lot of phytonutrients including chlorophyll that’s incredibly healing for the internal lining of your digestive tract so if you have any gut issues or any inflammation that would be one thing i would highly recommend i’ll put a study down below that was a pretty hardcore double-blinded study uh showing some really good results okay the next thing you need to do is fasting okay definitely regular intermittent fasting as well as periodic prolonged fasting that’s going to give the digestive tract a chance to heal you’re going to create a condition called autophagy which is going to help repair the lining of your colon very important vitamin d at least 20 000 i use because it’s a very powerful anti-inflammatory and if you have gut damage you’re going to have a more difficult time absorbing vitamin d as well as calcium and then you also want to replace what’s missing let’s say you’re low in hydrochloric acid or you’re low in enzymes or you’re low in bile or you’re low in your good bacteria so anyway that’s my recommendation if you have inflamed digestive tract hey before you go if you’re benefiting from any of my content i would love to hear about your success story please share it in the link down below
