Hello all. I’ve been animal based for a few years, mostly low-carb. I come from the Weston Price camp and have tried keto and carnivore. Unfortunately I’ve dealing with constipation issues since 2021 and the mentioned WOEs didn’t change. Not to mention I’ve gain a little weight, instead of losing fat that I though these WOEs and fasting would would help with. I’ve used bile & magnesium cytrate supplements and ACV, and they seem to subside constipation, but it comes back after a while and continues. A month ago I saw a little blood show in the stool. Some veggies like carrots even show undigested in the stool too. So I believe I have a gastrointestinal issue that might be preventing nutrients from being absorbed well. Really frustrating considering that I’ve been into Whole Foods (+ herbs) for the past 11 years. The last thing I’m considering, before resorting to medical intervention, is doing an application caster oil over the stomach. I looked on Dr Tro’s website and couldn’t find contact info. I’m thinking I need a color guard test with a gastroenterologist, and wondering if I’ll need a referral (considering I haven’t started working with a general practitioner). Thoughts?
