Guest guest Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 My LLMD practice recommended a low (none is better)sugar, low carb, low fat,hi protein, no caffeine or alcohol diet. So far my digestion is fine after 8 months on oral abxs. Perhaps it depends on where the organisms set up housekeeping. I do know many people who's digestive system is not working well who have Lyme. Is leaky gut caused by Lyme or a side effect of antibiotic treatment? Kim [ ] Re: detox, glutenfree etc. > > Yep- I take milk thistle and some MLM gluthatione acceleraton MAXGL( at the time) and always drink load of water. All I do drink is water and herbal teas. And eat gluten free, organic , everything from scratch diet (for past 12 years). I think I may one of those people who don't methylate/detox--? That is what a naturopath is telling me . I'm wondering if these detox and gluten sensitivity problems existed before the lyme, or if they were caused by the Bb infection? I never had such problems until I got Lyme. Developing Lyme takes time, so one can never really pinpoint when the gut/detox trouble started. I can imagine the gut gets damaged from antibiotics, and damaging the galbladder with rocephin will also create problems down the road. But I have heard others who had these problems already before they started ABX treatment. I was eating pretty healthy before I got ill, and never had any problems with gluten, carbs or whatever - I am not 'allergic' now, but if I eat normal bread for a few days or weeks, my gut starts to protest. Similar issues with carbs etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
