I cannot believe it was such a simple fix but after years of struggle I started taking 5-MTHF (8500 mcg) and B complex.

Why I think this works- I believe taking accutane severely inhibited my ability to methylate. Taking the 5-mthf is a proven supplement to counter this. Losing my ability to methylate was causing serious gut motility issues which led to all sorts of problems. I had gastritis, acid reflux, sibo, anxiety etc etc. after being on these supplements I feel amazing and my normal self!! I wanted to share this in hopes that others try this. It may not be your issue but it has changed my life already.

*I also take vitamin c, zinc, magnesium glycinate, b12, probiotic. But didn’t notice real changes until taking the 5-mthf and b complex.

Hi can I take two doses of 5-mthf daily? I suspect I need to up the dosage but don’t want to overdo it.

I know AW says the best probiotics are elevated biotics, and I believe him. But I have to say, I started taking the probiotic supplement he recommends and my digestive symptoms are GONE. I spent the last few months killing off the bad guys and introduced the probiotic a week ago. I feel like my old self! it’s really amazing! No more acid reflux, cramping, heart palpitations etc etc. I’m not saying this will be the case for everyone but if you are stuck like I was maybe give the probiotic supplement a shot. Theres nothing to lose :)

I ate clean all day (potatoes, dates, and HMDS) but ate dinner around 9pm. I laid down right after eating but didn’t go to sleep until like 12. I woke up at 4am with a feeling of trapped gas in my lower stomach. It felt as if I had to pass gas but my body wouldn’t allow it. It kept me up and couldn’t sleep, I tried taking lemon balm which made me more sleepy but still couldn’t get rid of the feeling. Anyone ever experienced this?

Budget of 40k. I’m a very inexperienced car guy and afraid of getting swindled on a used car but I like the idea of the luxury of a Lexus. What do you recommend?

I live near the city and don’t drive much besides various weekend trips of varying distances. What would you choose?

So I’m healing from digestive issues (I suspect strep, had it all the time as a kid and lots of cystic acne) and getting the white tongue that I can scrape off.

I guess I’m wondering will it keep going until I’m healed? Will that mean it’s gone in my digestive tract as well?

I went full MM for a month (no fat included). I just ate a large meal with no foods and meat for a special occasion. Well I woke in the middle of the night with diarrhea and stomach cramps. Is this normal when introducing no foods/fat after not having them? I certainly overdid it but was wondering if anyone else experienced this?
