Elemental Diet – Day 2

Today my levels were lower than yesterday.

Gas Levels for Day 1

Gas Levels for Day 2

The dark blue is Methane and light blue is Hydrogen.

Because I’m SIBO – Methane Dominant, the treatment might need elemental diet because it’s considered a stubborn one.

My energy levels for pretty even today. I still worked out. I did strength training and did shoulders. Got in my 10k steps. My last shake is what triggered the levels to spike. It is advised to sip the shakes slowly to minimize blood sugar spike such as nausea, fatigue, thirst and irritability.

I did feel some fatigue, but I pushed myself to work out and stay moving in between. Especially after the shakes. Although my last shake, I took a walk an hour after. So I wonder if that’s what triggered it to go high.

I am still drinking 3–4 litres of water everyday.

I did experience strong cravings for pizza and found myself scrolling on TikTok looking at Pizza reviews 😂. However, the cravings died after having some self-talk that the bigger picture is to heal and these cravings is the bacteria/archea playing mind tricks. The strong belief that you need it is something though…it’s hardcore!

I’m glad I was able to overcome that. Alright that’s it for now.

Day 3 update – tomorrow

Let’s keep going SIBO community. We got this!
