How to Improve Your Gut Health and Microbiome in Long Covid | With Viola Sampson

[@Mattymo7]

As always, thank you so much for these videos. Almost 18 month long hauler here and GI has been one of my most prominent issues.

[@Beekind799]

the miracle mineral solution brings long covid to an end in about 8 hours,all that pain,misery and sufffering gone in 8 hours ,the miracle mineral solution is for making drinking water safe to drink if you done that with bleach it would kill you,big pharma will do all they can to stop you using the miracle mineral solution it ends all post viral conditions in about 8 hours maybe thats why they call it the miracle mineral solution,heal the gut with slippery elm bark powder it takes about ten days you have to take 2 x 40billion probiotics night and day then take a protocol to address your weak immune system,low atp levels is your problem,adddress that and the immune system works properly,if you are american to xic gm foods is killing you ,its causing all the auto immune conditions and the weak immune systems,tahst why america has the highest covid death rate ,all caused by glysophates in toxic gm foods

[@eugeniebreida]

Sorry to interject, however, am newly inspired by recent video interview of microbiome/brain connection scientist Emeran Mayer (interviewed recently by Mark Hyman). I suffer a three year+ autoimmune disease, for which the gut health is central (almost universally typical, if not entirely so). June 16, 2021 Interview: w/Hyman's outrageous title: "Fix Your LEAKY GUT To Prevent DIABETES< EHART DISEASE & __________ (can't see it while typing in Comments scroll down) with Emeran Mayer & Mark Hyman). Mayer has a book I will be checking out on Amazon . . . I am no newbie to microbiome/gut/nutrition/inflammation and also how all this affects our brain (one and same in many ways) . . . Well, if you're miserable, I recommend checking out, will help if you have some sort of background, but not required. And Hyman gets caught promoting (again) the microbe Ankermansia (or similar spelling). NOPE, it's both good and deleterious. . . Hyman is a 'functional doctor' (which I appreciate) but is hardly a scientist. Cheers and good luck.

I learned that after getting very ill with respiratory illness (unknown) alcohol was very harmful for me. I started reducing meat and increasing yogurt and fermented soy called tempeh.

The GAPS diet was the single most effective thing I’ve done over my 8 months of LC. It focuses on gut microbiome and gut wall healing. Im still on the introduction phase (5 weeks now), but I’m doing so much better. I’ve also used brain retraining as well. Those two things have been game changers for me. My POTS is almost gone which is a big deal. Headaches too. Im completely off of supplements. Well actually just cod liver oil, but that’s more of a food than a supplement. Thought I’d share this because I think the trauma she refers to might be damage to the gut lining or microbiome. Hopefully my recovery continues at this pace.

@@markstaud honestly, it was very good at getting me to a certain point, but it plateaued around 60-70%. From there it was difficult to maintain such a strict diet. With slip ups here and there, I ended up relapsing. It’s a good tool to have, but it’s not a cure. I tried it for 6 months, very strictly. Since then I loosely follow it. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy has been very helpful for me as well. Probably more so than the dieting. Everyone is different, so we all need to keep trying things. Best of luck.

This is all great advice. If you have sibo though, you are unable to tolerate many of these foods. You have to eliminate the overgrowth of bacteria first then introduce prebiotics. It makes it tough for us people with gut issues. People who don't, go for this it will really work to increase gut diversity.

[@bluelibradorite9566]

What prebiotics & probiotics would you advice ? Txx

[@thenatster4383]

@@bluelibradorite9566 I would start with one of the following prebiotics in tiny amounts and build up: partially hydrolyzed guar gum (Nestle), Galactooligosaccharides (GOS) by Bimuno, or Acacia gum. These are recommended by Jason Hawrelak if you suffer from gas and bloating and are considered some of the "safer" prebiotics. Prebiotics are the best way to make quick and impactful changes to the gut microbiome. Hope this helps!

Look into SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth) and Mark Pimentel’s research around it. It’s a major cause of bloating, excessive belching and distended abdomen after eating certain foods. Taking a glucose or lactulose breath test for it is the only non-invasive way to test for it. If you have it, Try getting a small intestinal prokinetic such as 0.5mg of prucalopride 4 hours after your last meal at bedtime and fast for at least 12 hours after taking the medicine. Try to not snack in between meals. Read the wikipedia page on the migrating motor complex to understand this condition as it’s compromized in people with this condition.

[@meeexxxxX4]

I really appreciate Viola acknowledging that she was one of the lucky ones, and that some people do everything 'right' and still don't recover. It's so rare for recovered patients and also many alternative health practitioners to recognise this. It means a lot and I think adds a lot of credibility to her work and understanding of these illnesses. I usually get my back up when people use the term 'chronic fatigue' when talking about ME, but she spoke with a lot of knowledge and empathy throughout this interview, especially at the end.

We’ve always eaten healthy in our family before Covid and now we had to change everything because of high histamine levels, but we are knowledgeable in our family and read and researched a lot. Praying it improves because nearly 12 months later. It’s hard to manage 😢

I'm really struggling with pacing, trying to do some work when I can and follow interests not knowing where my energy levels will be day to day and my activity tolerance seems to be getting worse.

@@RUNDMC1 So im sure you know why i would mention Niacin with flush, Nac and melatonin but i am thinking about L Theanine because of the Vagus nerve and i am only guessing here that L Theanine would possibly reduce over activity because L Theanine has a powerful effect on making the brain create Alpha waves. I have read that a single dose of L Theanine can induce Alpha waves equal to 5 hours of meditation. I also mentioned it because of the uncanny resemblance between the protocols that some long haulers use and the protocols i used with my son because i noticed early in his life that he was on the spectrum. Takes years here to get a diagnosis before medication can be given so i had to research and find things that would help him. My protocol for helping my son was focused on dealing with possible inflammation, reducing IL6 and TNF. Healthy gut, pro and Prebiotics, Niacin with flush, vitamin D, Nac, melatonin and L Theanine. Also intermittent CBD or Curcumin regulators of IL6. I am just seeing patterns here and as your guest points out it boils down a lot too inflammation. I also suffered chronic back pain for almost 20 years and genuinely thought i was heading towards being out of work so i started taking the same protocol i was giving my son and within 2 months i experienced a massive improvement. That was 3 years ago and now i am perfectly fine. Really praying that all those suffering long Covid can find solutions that work for them. I would also mention as a side note that the protocol i used also improved my mental health massively. Certainly possible that getting rid of chronic back pain contributed greatly but i genuinely believe it goes beyond that. Keep up the great work and you're really helping so many 👍

The researchers also examined the makeup of the gut microbiome to see if it was associated with different categories of long-haul COVID-19 symptoms. Eighty-one bacterial species were associated with different categories of long-haul COVID-19 and many species were associated with greater than 2 categories of persistent symptoms, noted the researchers. “Persistent respiratory symptoms were correlated with opportunistic pathogens such as Streptococcus anginosus, Streptococcus vestibularis, Streptococcus gordonii, and Clostridium disporicum.

@@RUNDMC1 and some more - seems the virus potentially infects gut bacteria too. Tweet with video and paper links below: “Italian researcher Dr. Carlo Brogna reported some interesting findings at the #LongCovid Coalition International Conference - he’s had success treating LC patients with a specific *antibiotic* regimen (that’s right, not antivirals). His team found neuro toxic peptides in the blood/stool/urine of c-19 patients, which they concluded were produced by gut bacteria with altered behavior due to SARS-Cov-2 infection. Apparently the virus can infect gut bacteria in addition to infecting human cells. Dr. Brogna theorizes that bacteria produce these toxic peptides as a defense against the virus; but unfortunately for the infected person, this can result in neurologic dysfunction. He also found that “the bacteria do not stop producing toxins even when the viral load is absent.” Treatment is correct antibiotics + correct probiotics takes 5-6 days to produce results: We have seen Amoxicillin plus clavulanic acid and Rifaximin also turn off the toxicological production, which azithromycin and metronidazole do not do at all.

If you have it, Try getting a small intestinal prokinetic such as 0.5mg of prucalopride 4 hours after your last meal at bedtime and fast for at least 12 hours after taking the medicine.

Also corn has never given me problems, but I'm also genetically mostly from the Americas... I'm guessing Asian cultures who traditionally ate soy have no problems with soy in their diets. Eating foods from your ancestors original diets is never discussed by most nutritional experts. Less than 500 years time is not enough to adapt to new diets. Just because European people don't char corn like it should be properly cooked doesn't mean corn itself is bad for everyone. Its stupid to assume everyone has the same problems. Our ancestors had more children when they weren't allergic to local cuisine and miserable all the time... Assuming everyone has a European gut is pretty foolish for anyone not European.
