Hey experts- I'm on day 12 of no gluten and no dairy. I'm feeling a little better mood & energy wise, but I'm still waking up in the morning with either diarrhea of soft stools (light colored). Any tips? Does it take longer than 12 days to start to resolve? The diarrhea during the day is mostly gone, but the mornings are the same. I'm eating mostly whole, gentle foods.

Unfortunately, it takes a while for everything to start working the way nature intended. Hange in there, and maybe add a good gluten free probiotic to your regimen.

Did you switch to whole foods? Or are you eating processed substitutes?

Mostly whole foods: nuts, fruits, veggies, rice, etc. A few substitutes. I did add a probiotic last week too. I'm getting a lot of fiber, obviously, so could that be making the stool soft?

More fiber than you are used to eating will change your bowel movements. If you feel like your moving towards more formed stool, and away from straight diarrhea, then it would seem like you're moving in the right direction. If you still think everything is random, you might want to consider other food issues, but do give yourself a couple weeks to let your body adjust.

Everything is right what others sad, but I will give three other option. They are from my experience.

1. I'm fructose intolerant. My body can't digest some fruits, syrups, juices, or jelly, jam. Fructose intolerance can cause diarrhea, and will cause bloathing, gas, cramps. If you started to eat more friuts, you might be intolerant to some (grapes, apples, pears,...).

2. You can have other intolerances or allergies(eggs, soy, corn,...).

3. I also had SIBO- small intestinal bacterial overgrowth. I was tested for candida and helico-bakteria which was negative. My doctor tested me for SIBO, and I was positive. After two antibiotics everything is perfect now.

All this things can cause diarrhea. If you wouldn't get better after few weeks, try to look for the cause in other places. Sooner you find what is your trigger, sooner you will get better.

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶

      Thank you so much for the information and kind message! Reading this transformed how I’ve been viewing my efforts and progress. Guess there’s still a lot to celebrate and also heal 😌  Yes, I’ve been taking it! Just recently started taking a multivitamin supplement and separated vitamin D! I also took chewable Iron polymaltose for ferritin deficiency 2 months ago but was unable to absorb any of it.  Thank you again! Hearing such gentle words from the community makes my body and heart more patient and excited for the future.
