[QUOTE="Lamont D, post: 2572975, member: 85785"] Your gut is unique to you, it's make up of millions of bacteria, has a direct effect on your health, your life, immune system, and how your brain controls the signal requirements for your digestive response. There is something called a gut brain axis, that is instrumental in how your hormones supply your body's natural resources for day to day life. I had a bacterium which probably changed my health, well, it did, because I was constantly having stomach issues for years, decades! I had a endoscopy and a sample of my bacterial make up was taken for examination, a bacteria called helicobactor pylori, was found. I took the anti biotics, and the stomach issues went. But as a result of this, I found out a few years later that I had a condition called 'Late Reactive Hypoglycaemia'. My body now creates too much insulin, after certain foods, mainly carbs. I was misdiagnosed as T2. Because my blood glucose levels were all over the place. The majority of doctors and one endocrinologist didn't have a clue, until referred to an endocrinologist who recognised the symptoms, and my fasting levels were in normal levels. I'm not diabetic, but have classic T2 symptoms if constantly eating carbs. If I didn't have the tests, if I hadn't had the referral, if I didn't try and find out what my body was doing and sorting my diet, the way my body reacts to certain foods is my health. This is why you should always ask questions and discuss what is supposed to happen with the advice. This is why, a goo food diary is so important, why a testing regime is critical, why a balanced dietary regime designed for you by you is crucial in deciding your life ahead. If you need tests insist on them. Don't let them fob you off, guesswork doesn't give you a place to a belief that you are correct. Not knowing is pants! Knowing is something to use as a tool. Best wishes. [/QUOTE]
