What really makes a probiotic worthwhile? - gut health, probiotics, survivability

What really makes a probiotic worthwhile? - gut health, probiotics, survivability

Do probiotic products live up to the hype? Not according to some doctors. They would say probiotics DO NOT live up to the hype and randomly buying a probiotic off the shelf of a local drugstore isn't going to do you any good. Why? ⁠⁠This is probably due to the fact that not all probiotics are the same. ⁠⁠Here are some points to consider when buying a probiotic:⁠⁠(1) Survival rate. If you can find a probiotic with a third-party tested 100% survival rate that is pretty amazing. Shopping by CFU counts may not be the best way to choose a...

What's all the buzz about erythritol? - heart attack, stroke

What's all the buzz about erythritol? - heart attack, stroke

No, Silver Fern™ Brand does not sell anything with erythritol in it and the monk fruit we use in Reflux is all monk fruit. But why not look at the research? From what I can find, the research is specific to measuring what is happening to people taking erythritol in higher doses from keto friendly foods and drinks. To give a comparison, a serving of Halo Top ice cream has 8 grams of sugar alcohol (erythritol) per serving and 23 grams per container. Let's face it, most people eat the whole container. LOL The question is, what do lower doses...

A beneficial bacteria that may help reduce exhaustion for those with chronic fatigue - gut health, prebiotics

A beneficial bacteria that may help reduce exhaustion for those with chronic fatigue - gut health, prebiotics

What is F. prausnitzii? It's a beneficial bacteria found in the gut.Promoting the growth of F. prausnitzii may strongly reduce exhaustion from chronic fatigue syndrome. Not too many years ago, the scientific community could only really say that chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) was linked to imbalances and inflammation. They could also strongly correlate a connection between digestive problems and CFS. Inflammatory markers (like LPS) were shown to be high. Now the science is able to actually pinpoint actual strains of good bacteria (F. prausnitzii) that may be able to reduce exhaustion for people with CFS. It is always best to...

Killing bad stuff can cause discomfort. ⁠⁠We are testing a new ingredient right now that "may help" (approved language for a supplement company) with bad imbalances associated with parasites, candida, and gram negative bacteria imbalance "issues" (while leaving all the good stuff). This product is years in the making (research, verification, searching, etc.). ⁠⁠When we had our test group of people with big gut issues use the aggressive dosing they had a lot of aches, pains, headaches, brain fog, fatigue, nausea, etc. We cut back their dosing and they have all pressed on.

Could your IBS really be SIBO? - gut health, immunoglobulins, probiotics, bloating, constipation

Could your IBS really be SIBO? - gut health, immunoglobulins, probiotics, bloating, constipation

If you say you have IBS with bad bloating (frequent to chronic bloating), we assume you likely have SIBO too. Better to be safe than sorry! If you say you have really bad bloating where you wake up with a flat stomach and end the day looking 6 months pregnant, we assume you have some form of SIBO (or SIFO) even if you don't test for it and even if someone tells you that you most likely only have IBS. The science is suggesting more and more that SIBO is directly linked to IBS as a cause (not necessarily the...

Your mood is related to your gut health, what's the science? - gut health, mental health, depression, anxiety

Since gut problems are highly connected to mood disorders, does that mean that by cleaning up the gut one can improve one's mood? The quick answer seems to be "yes." Does this work as fast as medications? No, I don't think so. But can a gut protocol along with meds work even better? The answer to this also seems to be "yes." In Psychology Today (August 28, 2022), they suggest that specialists that diagnose, treat, and prevent mental, emotional and behavioral disorders are becoming more and more aware of gut health's connection to improving mood. The second brain in the...

Can you test for leaky gut? - gut health, probiotics, gut barrier, inflammation

Can you test for leaky gut? - gut health, probiotics, gut barrier, inflammation

Can you test for leaky gut? If you assume that gut barrier loss is called "leaky gut" then you can test for leaky gut using a few tests: ✅zonulin ✅endotoxin (LPS) ✅intestinal fatty acid-binding protein (FABP) ✅endotoxin core antibodies (EndoCAbs) Leaky gut can trigger chronic inflammation and may be a primary risk for metabolic diseases. Gut barrier issues can be part of many health problems. That is why all our protocols hyper focus on the whole gut barrier (not just the epithelial layer but the entire gut barrier-mucus layer and all). Starting in the right spot and taking the right...

How does a chemical like glyphosate affect gut health? - gut health, probiotics, immunoglobulins

How does a chemical like glyphosate affect gut health? - gut health, probiotics, immunoglobulins

⚠️Trigger topic comin' in hot⚠️ Some say glyphosate is harming people and others (including the EPA) say that is "fear -mongering" to even suggest so. Years ago I did a post on glyphosate and people got really triggered over it. So, to keep people from being triggered, I am going to suggest our views on it and if you don't agree that's okay. From our perspective, glyphosate is bad. It isn't that the body can't process chemicals like glyphosate, it is that it is another negative piece of a much broader attack on the microbiome. It is trickling into all...

Super sensitive stomach? ⁠⁠If you have taken our Reflux product and felt that it made your reflux and heartburn even worse, you may have an unhappy mucosa lining. Even the tiny amount of malic acid in Reflux can trigger people with a really mad stomach to feel even worse. We are currently waiting on a new flavor system with NO malic acid in it.

Why is constipation so difficult to overcome? - gut health, probiotics, laxatives, digestion, slow motility

Why is constipation so difficult to overcome? - gut health, probiotics, laxatives, digestion, slow motility

Constipation products and protocols don't work. Why? ⁠They focus on forced motility OR they focus on gut imbalances ONLY with probiotics. It is very tough to clean up something that is clogged up. ⁠⁠There are 4 keys to helping with constipation issues:⁠1) Motility activation (not forced motility dependency provided by laxatives)⁠2) Soothing and calming the system. When the system is flared up it is going to be clogged up. Motility issues are an inflammatory issue. ⁠3) Lubrication. A dry colon produces dry waste that causes painful bowel movements.⁠4) Microbial imbalances. It is good to begin improving imbalances, but not with...

Hemorrhoids? Laxatives aren't the best answer - gut health, constipation, regularity

Hemorrhoids? Laxatives aren't the best answer - gut health, constipation, regularity

Laxatives seems like the natural answer for most for hemorrhoids. Increasing consumption of fiber is also a great way to help with hemorrhoids. Since hemorrhoids are commonly associated with constipation and other dysmotility problems, we suggest a more comprehensive response to hemorrhoids. Constipation issues are not only a function of motility activation. It is also an inflammatory problem, a dry lower intestinal wall that is not properly coated, and microbial imbalance problem. By soothing the system down, helping the lower bowels remain moist and slippery (without lubricating laxatives), promoting microbial balance, and then activating motility, you won't have white knuckle...

Low iron problems? You may have a candida overgrowth problem. If you have low iron as well as fatigue, recurring UTIs, digestive problems, skin and fungal problems, irritability, mood swings, anxiety, and depression then you may have a candida overgrowth. How do you bind and neutralize candida? Immunoglobulins! How do they do it? Immune and steric exclusion mechanisms. What does this mean?"Steric exclusion refers to a mechanism where immunoglobulin binding of antigen alters the physical characteristics of the antigen and inhibits translocation of the antigen across an epithelial barrier.

What is leaky gut? This is a general term used to refer to an unhealthy gut lining allowing pathogens, food particles, etc. into the body where they cause a wide range of issues from autoimmune problems and food issues to diseases and skin problems. The allowable structure functional claim all products in the gut industry are using is something like:"Supports gut barrier integrity"But there is a massive difference in a 2% improvement in gut barrier integrity and a 75% improvement in gut barrier integrity.

It is not recommended that fiber be used to help gastroparesis, why? - gut health, constipation

It is not recommended that fiber be used to help gastroparesis, why? - gut health, constipation

Gastroparesis (slow gastric emptying) is a motility issue. It comes with a wide range of discomforts. ⁠⁠With this particular issue, we suggest combining a good reflux protocol with a motility/constipation protocol for 60 to 90 days. ⁠⁠While gastroparesis is not associated as a cause of SIBO, IBS, gastritis, GERD, etc., it is commonly found in conjunction with issues like SIBO and IBS. All of these issues are dysmotility problems. Therefore, it may be fair to assume that by helping with gastroparesis and upper GI motility issues you are then going to help with other issues. ⁠⁠Interestingly, it is also suggested...

Suffering with eczema? - gut health, immunoglobulins, Mucosave, gut barrier, skin

Do you suffer with eczema? So many do. We get asked all the time how eczema can be helped. ⁠⁠We suggest initial high doses of ImmunoLin® (immunoglobulins) and MucoSave™ (prickly pear cactus and olive leaf extracts). ⁠⁠By binding and eliminating pathogens and strengthening the gut barrier, immunoglobulins are able to decrease immune activation. Further, they are shown to decrease intestinal inflammation.⁠⁠The mucus barrier is a key part to the innate immune system. The mucus layer is the first line of defense against pathogenic substances entering the body. The mucus barrier is a highly responsive part of the immune system. When...
