Leaky Gut Update #6

Published May 16, 2014

Im still back at fighting this klebsiella gut infection, Parex seems to have made some difference but to be honest I really do not feel like myself, still have fatigue and low energy, even though i am now taking 2-4 Ultra Flora Restore probiotics per day. Had a appointment with the naturopath today, and now will start taking Metagenics Bactrex for the next 2 weeks. I dont know how much longer I will be taking these herbals, as this has been going on for months now. I just want to feel normal and eat the foods I used to eat, is this so difficult?  How can one gut bacteria like klebsiella be so persistant and difficult to kill of? First Golden Seal, then Parex, now Bactrex, what next ? Come on Klebsiella go away I want my life back and to restore my gut and my health.

I am needing lots of protein to keep my energy levels, and even then i still dont feel that ive got much energy, but I hope really hope i can eliminate this by end of this year, it is only supposed to take 3 months, but its taking me 6 months.

Leaky Gut – Update #4

Published March 3, 2014

Hi All,

As you may have been reading I have been recovering of an infection after an overgrowth of Klebsiella in the gut, causing all kinds of issues.

Im happy to say I am feeling better now with more energy with taking the previous supplements mentioned. I am still yet to take the final 60 tablets of Goldenseal which I will begin. The plan is to use Goldenseal in the morning and afternoon, then have at least 4 hour break and use Probiotics (Metagenics Ultra Flora Restore) after dinner and before bed as well as rest of the supplements in my earlier posts.

Another addition to my supplementation is the addition of Metagenics G-Tox Express for 2 weeks to help with healing the leaky gut after the damage caused, as well as give more energy, as this contains glutamine.

Another thing i forgot to mention is my diet is purely dairy free, soy free, yeast free. I am only eating organic meat, with vegetables and either rice, potato or sweet potato, and rice bread what is on my allowed food list which i do not have any reaction to as well as an occasional piece of fruit. Also lots of seeds, and nuts and oils that i can have at the moment, almonds, pepita seeds, pine nuts, olive oil, coconut oil, grape seed oil etc.

I plan to reintroduce some of the foods in column 1 which i was advised to avoid for 3 months very soon from my ImmuPro 300 test in about 3-4 weeks time while i complete golden seal and gtox express.

After this I will have another stool test to determine if klebsiella is being picked up, and hoping the quantity will be significantly less or completely removed.

This is a very very long process, and I hope no one has to go through this, but at least I am getting somewhere and hoping to make this recovery quick and kick out klebsiella as its a bastard to deal with!!

Leaky Gut Update #2

Published January 17, 2014

As per my previous post I believe to have been suffering from a leaky gut problem, and i’ve done some further additional tests. In these tests they determined that the problem is being caused by the “Klebsiella” bacteria which is quite rare, and I think i might have acquired it 8 months ago while travelling in Fiji. I was told it is a quite resistant bacteria which is hard to remove. Ive been advised to take Mediherb GoldenSeal for 6 weeks to eradicate it and then do some more testing to see if it has been removed, and then use probiotics to populate with healthy gut flora. I hope this works and it gets eradicated as i’ve been feeling quite weird and sick last few months.

Here is a picture of the medication I am taking to improve my immune system and clearing of this bacteria, and so far it seems to be working quite good.
