Hi all,
I’m new here and just wondering if anyone could advise me. I’ve been reading the Clever Guts book and also have the cookbook, and am aiming to introduce more pre- and probiotics into my diet. I want to see if this might help my Chronic Fatigue, which I’ve had for years. Has anyone found that increasing probiotic consumption is beneficial on its own, without the Repair and Recovery phases?
I ask for several reasons. One is that I’ve done various elimination diets over the years, all of which have left me feeling absolutely dreadful for several weeks. I can’t really afford to feel awful now that I have an energetic 7 year old to look after. Also, the benefits (aside from weight loss and a decreased desire for sweet things) were hard to quantify. The other issue for me is that removing so many things in the repair phase takes quite a bit of planning and energy, which I’m particularly low on at the moment!
Any thoughts welcome!
