After reading Peat and this forum for a little over two years, I would say it all comes back to endotoxin and the liver. You might look into some supplements like calcium d glucarate to help the liver detoxify estrogen, as well as activated charcoal, even though Peat doesn’t seem to particularly think those two things are perfectly safe! A lot of people, including myself, have struggled with raw carrots because of beta carotene. I don’t like bamboo shoots and can only eat mushrooms occasionally before I start to tire of them, so eating massive quantities of any of those is out. Famotidine distilled down using hot water and apple cider vinegar is good for me when my stomach and gut feel really off, which I’m assuming means that serotonin is out of control. When parts of me start to feel inflamed I take a teaspoon or so of activated charcoal. I’ve been taking the calcium d glucarate daily as I am taking a high dose of progesterone daily and felt that estrogen was building up as evidenced by tenderness in my breasts. Milk thistle is also Peat approved to a point. I have found that the plant matter as opposed to the tinctures work best. Also, make sure you’re getting plenty of the alkaline mineral magnesium and the amino acid taurine. Tart cherry supplements to rebuild good gut bacteria and fight endotoxin.
