Gut Healing Nutrients Post 2:
The next step is to support the restoration of the gut barrier. Nutrients, such as glutamine, Vitamin D, Zinc, and short chain fatty acids (found from soluble fiber) are directly helpful. Nutrients with antioxidant properties are also helpful, such as Vitamin E, Vitamin A, colloidal Silver, and Selenium. To help restore the balance of the microbiome, adding a probiotic on board is helpful especially during and after a bout of antibiotics, though probiotics can be harmful if someone has SIBO, so make sure to communicate with a trained medical professional to determine risk. A good-quality probiotic should need to be refrigerated (that indicates the presence of live strains) and have billions of CFUs per serving.
Generally, it takes a minimum of 6 weeks for the gut lining to repair itself, and will take longer if the damaging agents are not removed. If we utilize the nutrients above to help repair our gut lining without removing the root cause, we are essentially putting a bandage over the gut; a bandage that can pop off at any time. Talk to a trained medical professional about ways to find out the root cause of your symptoms to jump start the restoration of your gut.
