know these prebiotics and and probiotics and what feeds you know short chain fatty acid production and all these very important things that go on in the gut and i know far more now than i ever thought i would but with that being said this is very much a bio individual because i feel like there's enough people that don't tolerate fiber that i i try very hard to get a little bit into their diet you know whether it's with a supplement

Or we dip our toe in the pond and we try just, you know, you have an eighth of a cup of lentils one day and maybe another day you're having, you know, a small amount of greens. And then the day after you might introduce some, you know, low glycemic berries just to be getting something into the diet.

But I think more often than not, if someone is completely intolerant of fiber, it's a reflection of what's going on in their microbiome.

I think it's quite important. I would say I'm going to probably going to get in trouble for saying this. I'm going to put it up as a name.

I think it's actually important. And the irony is over time, because I've had patients try inulin and psyllium and I mean, all sorts of different, it is as individual as the patient. And we start in some instances, we're starting with an eighth of a teaspoon a day just to see, you know, what can we build them up to? It's that important to at least try it.

And I think it's an important, you know, it's a bit of experimentation. And certainly I've had patients who've had SIBO and we've had them on very low FODMAP diets. And there's all sorts of great resources online where you can see it's like a traffic light, you know, green, yellow and red from like lowest to highest FODMAP. I think for a lot of individuals that can be very, very helpful.

The other thing that's really interesting is it goes back to reflecting on The health of your microbiome has a lot to do with what you can or cannot tolerate. And I don't say that to be shaming because I think my gut microbiome has been all over the place over the last 10 years. But I think for a lot of people, as they start healing, they will find that they are more tolerant.
