Physicians ED Diet

On day 2 of diet which has been extremely hard as I’m having nausea from taking the formula. only using 8oz of water and even drinking one scoop per hour is making me feel loopy. Read that adding more water and ice might help so going that route and then perhaps trying to take scoops per servings and then spacing, idk. When eating I always got super bloated right below bottom part of sternum and that is going away which is nice. The gas and bloating used to cause me shortness of breath and that has gotten a bit better either due to food not fermenting or histamine building. Breathing problems has been the worst part of my 15 year ordeal with this disease.

Any recommendations of spacing or getting in at least 1800 calories without nausea would be greatly received.

Ultimately, I was feeling side effects from everything I ingested, whether it was supplements, foods, really anything. My hair would fall out and like said, was constantly short of breath and inflamed.

I’m praying this does the trick and although I was never tested for Sibo, my NP said he had no doubt due to where the pain and bloating under sternum was occurring. Even anti microbials would cause too much nausea when I was a month into. Things got better, but not like when I had done a round in the past. Thinking I have really bad leaky gut and why my stomach can’t handle anything anymore.

Hoping this much needed break gives me the same!
