Advice needed: Amino acid supplements with bacterial dysbiosis

[Guest guest]

Hello Experts,

A friend recently got Metametrix ION results for her 7 yr old son. He is in

need of some supplementary amino acids. (5htp, phenylalanine and lots of

taurine have

been recommended).

HOWEVER, he also has urinary organic acid markers for bacterial dysbiosis. Both

indican and tricarballylate are elevated. (No yeast, at least according to test

results.)

I have heard that it is best not to give amino acids until dysbiosis is under

control.

What approach have you experienced parents taken when this comes up? I know it

can take a while to get gut bacteria back in balance, but I fear he really

needs the

aminos SOON.

Also, have any of you had success with gut intervention when indican and

tricarballylate are elevated? What probiotics? Any other products or meds?

Grateful for any help!
