One thing I like about Dr Anderson’s videos is they are short to the point are very informative. Also, the videos are not sponsored by some supplement company and he also recommends that you talk to a functional medicine doctor. I also like how when he talks about supplements, he talks about all the different forms each type comes in. I normally cannot watch long videos and I appreciate that most of his videos are less than 15 minutes long, very easy to focus for that period of time

I had to go back several times because my mind just kept drifting away. Every time you mention a potential symptom for a more "severe pathology", and advise to consult with a doctor, I can't help but feel sad and frustrated. I'm here as a direct result of doctors dismissing incapacitating pain after eating, without a single improvement after a low fodmap diet and the same (negative on multiple occasions) test for parasites.

Just like with my other chronic conditions, I'm resigned to figuring it out myself and asking doctors for the specific test and diagnosis. So thank you for your videos. They are an invaluable resource.

I liked this because you gave the ailment, then possible handling or solutions. Thank you!

Ejj doctor, doctor. I've got 3 kids all with different or similar problems, like allergies, blocked sinuses, hearing problems, acne, stomach pain, flatulence, irregular period. From young age something... since I've started giving them regularly antiparasitic and antifungal medication and cleaning their guts regularly all their problems gone!!! And I've seen in toilet a lot of different stuff: ropeworms, nematodes, ascaris, giardia... Don't make things more complicated than they really are. Keep cleaning your body from all toxins, heavy metals, parasites and y'all will be fine. Plus healthy diet zero sugar, low carbs, lot of fermented food.

After Cdiff over 8 years ago I developed so many food intolerances. My diet is terrible as a result. I would love to eat fruits and vegetables but I will be unable to function about 12 hours later (horrible cramps) Nuts, popcorn, avocadoes, salad, berries and really anything high fiber are the primary offenders. I also gut out gluten. I used to eat all of these foods without any problem. Is it possible to bring them back?

[stevierusso]

Autonomic dysfunction! via elephant in room that so many contending with! Damaging the nerves in & then some.
Thank you Doc 👍❤️

Just want to share this in case it helps someone 🙌
I can eat certain foods most days and then for a day or even a week I can't without issues and then I'm okay with it again. Then I have constipation which I've had since I was 1 years old. I find dairy and gluten make this worse and I get gassy, bloated and pain when I don't poop 2 times per day. When I go regularly I get less gassy, bloated and less pain. I find doing physical stuff or sitting makes it worse and only gets better if I lay for hours per day. I also have POTS and dysfunction of digestive organs. So that might explain a lot.

I was always told IBS doesn't present with inflammation. I have suffered with GI issues for years. They told me it was IBS. Then they found intraepithelial lymphocytosis "inflammation" and now my doctor says it's not IBS because there is no inflammation with IBS. Unfortunately intraepithelial lymphocytosis is just the sign/symptom of a condition that has yet to be discovered 😕 cutting out gluten helped but im totally negative for celiac but I do carry the gene for it.

Don't eat at Cheesecake Factory ! I have no idea what they put in their food but EVERY single time I eat there - no matter what I order , afterwards I feel like I have to go lie down in the Nurses Office and wait for a parent to come pick me up. LOL . Happens every single time !

My doctor laughs it off for lack of any knowledge other than something he can treat with a drug therapy...AWFUL
