they produce a lot of gas and for some people if you're going to flood the system with more probiotics or more fiber raw uncooked fiber you're going to really push the gas pedal on that not to use a pun but you're just going to be producing a lot of gas essentially it's going to be really uncomfortable it might cause diarrhea it might cause constipation so in those individuals

you have to consume in this, I think, low fermented diet style. You know, essentially you want the veggies to be cooked so that the fiber is broken down a little bit. You want to avoid the consumption of probiotics. And in those people, I actually focus entirely on the postbiotic

supplement realm so those are things like short chain fatty acids tributerin is i think the big one in that space there's a postbiotic from pomegranate called urolithin a and then a secondary bile acid called tudka so Typically, when people are really sensitive to the pre and pro side, you're removing the prebiotic foods and then you're just pushing the postbiotic.

And eventually over time, for many of those individuals, as you influence the Treg cells to calm down, the immune system will therefore be able to do what it is intended to do, which is to regulate the microbiome.

It depends on the context. So if I'm going to do a reintroduction, it's typically going to be for somebody who does not have a known diagnosed autoimmune disease. Because in that context, I don't think it's worth the potential flare of the autoimmunity itself for the reintroduction, because sometimes irreversible damage is done in that flare. So that's the first really important counseling point.

If we're just dealing with you know, no autoimmunity, chronic inflammatory symptoms, you know, I usually will counsel, wait until we know for sure that your intestinal permeability is resolved, because that's when we know your physiologic resilience is back, meaning you're more likely to pass the trial, which is what we want. Wait until then, and then we can do a reintroduction.

And, you know, depending on the foods that they reacted to, I'll make the list in kind of reverse order of what I think was causing the issue and do the reintroductions a week at a time. Essentially, we counsel people to do three days of small introductions sequentially and then to pause for four days and just be sure that over the course of that week, they feel the same as baseline.
