4+ years basic Peat approach , 5 years prior was hardcore Paleo diet.
Body composition hasn't changed (slim with a gut) but I have gained 4 stones since Peating which I needed to gain anyway.
Despite a LOT of dietary changes I still look 6 months pregnant with extreme bloating. I meditate and make sure I breath properly which offers a few minutes of relief, but nonetheless, I still feel terrible.
These days I eat whatever because no diet has helped with bloating. (but my waking temperature has gone from 35.1 to 36.2C). I don't really have any dairy except occasional ice cream, eat some wheat, chicken breast, very small amount of meat a fair amount of candy, fruit juice, coconut oil.
- No longer take thyroid medication, which hasn't effected my temperature (YAY!)
- Epsom salt baths twice a week
- Cascara once a week for constipation
- Coffe - not sure if this makes stomach worse
- D3/K2 supplement
- Red light therapy on face to help beard grow
- No carrot salad since it causes constipation (same for bamboo)
- Previously took mastic gum which helped but due to the vast amount I was taking (2-3g a day), it became far too expensive. (for suspected h. pylori)
- Goat milk kefir offered some relief, but after a few months it was useless
I've taken prescript assist in the past as well as other probiotics which didn't really do a whole lot, often they made bloating worse.
There's a sticky on here that I've looked into for suggest probiotics, but I'm not sure. Sometimes I wear a back support just to keep my stomach in and after after a few hours of wearing it, I have a flat stomach! Enemas don't help either.
Carrot salad causes bloating, as does bamboo shoots. I make cooked mushroom soup but it offers no digestive aid. Same goes for lemon juice/vinegar before meals. Exercise doesn't have effect on bloating, but does help with constipation sometimes.
It could be an option to do "full" peat diet (whatever that is) but I cannot handle litres of fluids and seafood (oysters) are hard to get.
