Thank you Alison The Garrulous Glaswegian for sharing your journey with us. There are many different treatments that have worked for many different people. And that’s why it is best to work with a functional medicine doctor who can determine through tests what the root cause of one’s gut dysbiosis is. Then an effective treatment can be prescribed to balance the gut microbiome, healing the gut in a holistic manner.
As you agree, food is medicine, and I am glad you have found relief through detoxing. What worked for you might not be right for another. Elimination diets and detoxes can be tricky, which is why I shy away from writing on them given that I am a board certified health and wellness coach.
I wish you the very best on your continued journey of healing. :).
And send you love and light ~
