In my experience, the meat consumption is actually making your sensitivities worse to everything else worse, once meat is removed, generally other foods are tolerated far better. - including food with oxalates, etc.

​@@endsickness Interesting. May I ask how one would manage to get enough protein? Celiacs have a higher absorption of oxalates by default from what I've found. Lacking studies, but a lot of anecdotal stories. Split peas, mung beans etc? Lectins has been a hot topic too, but from what I gather it's tolerated better once leaky gut is healed and the gut is improving. Btw, you state that Bifido only is the way to go. Do you find that to be universal, or do you think for instance Gut Pro probiotic which has 3 bil pr serving of (L. gasseri, L. salivarius, B. bifidum, B. breve, B. infantis, B. longum, B. lactis. L. plantarum) could do good?

Beans, vegetables, whey protein, etc are all good sources of protein, even though meat has a higher protein content, that doesn’t necessarily mean you are extracting the amino acids from it, it is far harder to get amino acids out of meat versus plant-based options. Keep in mind, much of what we believe about our needs for protein are due to propaganda spread by the meat industry. If you look at the scientific data, meat products increase growth of auto immune bacteria while plant-based products feed good bacteria. I am not against using other strains of beneficial bacteria, but some of the ones you listed Ken aggravated immune response/increase histamine levels. This is why I typically choose Bifidobacterium, lactobacillus Rhamnosus, lactobacillus plantarum, L. Reuteri etc only - please get in touch directly. If you have any other questions, happy to answer them.

In terms of tips to reducing animal products, just start off at cutting down to one meal per day with animal products, I would eat the meat in middle of day - once you get used to that, try every other day or a few days off

​@@endsickness Thanks for the reply! Greatly appreciate it Matt. I'll add you on Whatsapp. Be well and I hope you have a great day!
