Episode notes
Use Elemental Diet Strategically
- Use the elemental diet as a full two-week liquid meal replacement or a less restrictive hybrid approach.
- A two to four day elemental diet reset followed by partial replacement helps SIBO healing while easier to maintain.
Elemental Diet and Fungus Caution
- Elemental diets may feed fungus due to simple carbohydrates but do not feed bacteria.
- Efficacy for Candida is unclear, so individual trial and monitoring is recommended.
Build Up Probiotics Carefully
- Consider starting probiotics individually if sensitive, then build up to lactobacillus, bifidobacterium, and Saccharomyces plus soil-based blends.
- Use evidence-based dosing consistent with clinical trials for best results.
