No we don’t treat it with ice cream. I just liked this picture template, lol. But I know some of you probably looked at the picture and said “OMG, how could he! How could he promote the use of eating ice cream to treat SIBO!” but honestly, it “could” be a part of the equation. * We can prevent SIBO from happening many ways. The first and most important thing is FOOD STRATEGY: digestible metabolic foods, food frequency, balancing grams and ratios, creating consistency with calories through food logging and using body temperature and pulse. Why? Because it will increase the flexibility of the nervous system and thyroid hormone production (T3) through blood sugar regulation. See, you need stored glucose to convert T4 to T3 so your cells all over your body, including the digestive system, can work properly. Remember from post #1 what happens when our cells do not get T3!? * More stomach acid is produced (HCL), peristalsis increases (motility), pancreatic enzyme and bile begin to flow within balance, thus the ability of the digestive system is regulated. Matter is moved throughout the digestive system with a normal transit time. * With all the new age SIBO treatment, the thyroid and conversion are always over looked. Not with us! It is the #1 priority. Fix that and you indirectly regulate the gut. #stress #restorationthyroid #wearefood #eastwesthealing #realfoodgangstas #sibo #bacterialovergrowth #bacteria #sibodiet #thyroid #hypothyroid #hypothyroidism
