Hello Friends,
I did the GI MAP test again this month. The last time I did this GI MAP test was in April 2018. So its been been 5 years since I did my 1st GI MAP test. You can check my results back in April 2018 on this blog at this link https://lawsofnatureblog.blogspot.com/2018/04/gi-map-stool-test-india.html .
Firstly, In the last 5 years I did atleast 6 months of Gut Infection killing each year, for the last 5 years. These Gut Infection killing supplements were all natural herbal antimicrobials. I bought these supplements from this link - https://justinhealth.com/product-category/g-i-support/. I kept rotating the supplements and I have tried 100% of all the gut infection killing supplements listed on that website. I have even used some of these supplements more than twice, each for a period of 3 months.
Secondly, I have been on the Auto Immune Paleo diet (AIP) for 6 years since 2017. I have been taking digestive support, Betaine HCL, Digestive Enzymes and Ox Bile since the last 5 years too.
I did each of the 6-Rs very religiously. 6-Rs is something Dr Justin Marchegiani describes for imrpoving your gut health.
1st R - Removing bad foods. This step can vary from removing just the 6 common GMO (Genetically Modified Organisms), namely, gluten, soy, dairy, eggplant, peanuts & eggs to SCD (Specific Carbohydrate diet) to Low-FODMAP to Paleo or Auto Immune Paleo diet. Out of all these diets, AIP is the most restricve diet of all. I am on a strict AIP diet since 6 years.
2nd R - Replace hormones. Dr Justin Marchegiani gives three bottles of three hormones, namely, Pregnenolone, DHEA and Licorice. They are supposed to help strengthen the gut lining by promoting healthy balance of hormones.
3rd R - Remove bad infections. In this step Dr gave me every gut killing herbs available on his website. https://justinhealth.com/product-category/g-i-support/. I used these herbs for 6 months of every year of the last 5 years.
4th R - Re-inoculate. In this step, Dr J, uses herbs like L-glutamine and others to repair the gut lining.
5th R - Repopulate healthy bacteria. In This step Dr gives you Lacto Bifido Probiotics, Scrhomyces Boulardi and/or Sporebased Probiotics.
6th R - Re-test. In this step Dr asks you to test your gut bacteria through the GI MAP test. https://www.diagnosticsolutionslab.com/tests/gi-map
I did each of the above 6 Rs religious through out the last 5-6 Years and Now, this report is telling me my infections have increased doing ALL the right things for the gut?!?!
Giardia 2.16e3 1.22e3
H. Pylori <dl 2.19e3
Clostridium 2.75e6 Not Included in this test now.
Enterobacter 9.02e7 Not Included in this test now.
Bacteroidetes 1.42e12 6.10e12
Enterococcus 1.79e4 Not included in this test now.
Bacillus 9.27e4 1.84e6
Staphylococous aureus 2.62e1 3.55e3
Streptococcus spp. <dl 2.79e4
Klebsiella spp. 4.70e4 5.55e4
Klebsiella pneu. 2.52e5 4.24e5
Prevotella spp. <dl 2.81e8
Candida spp. 7.94e3 2.96e4
The good stuff has reduced such as Elastase-1 in the last 5 years of healthy AIP diet and a gut clearing protocol.
Elastase-1 104 41
The latest report is very de-moralizing, as it seems I have not reduced my gut infections and seem to have doubled the quanity of each infection.
To add insult to the injury, I have wasted 8,00,000 INR or 10,000 USD so far just on doctor and his supplements alone. If I were to add the AIP diet cost and digestive support supplements cost, the expenses would run twice as much ie 20,000 USD and 16,00,000 INR. I am so depressed that I spent all that money only to increase my gut infections?!?! rather than reduce it. :( :( :(. God knows how frugally I lived and how hard I worked to be able to spend money on the doctor in Austin, Texas and his supplements. I am losing all hope in life. I am not sure what I am going to do now.
