Reddit reviews Ortho Molecular Products InflammaCORE, Orange Splash, 701 Gram

Since I haven't heard from you, I thought I'd drop some info on you. By the way, I don't mean to be pushy, but I have some experience here and had to research my way out of a lot of it. Also, I hate seeing people suffer when they might not have to.

Anyway, when I had gut issues, I was swinging between constipation and the runs. I was always hungry and only felt good for the first hour after a meal. After that, I was drowsy, lethargic and irritable. Consequently, I ate too much just to get through the day. I got testing for food intolerances/allergies. I had through-the-roof antibodies present for eggs, milk and almonds. It wasn't causing a face-swelling, throat-closing reaction - that would be an allergy, which is life-threatening. But my immune system was reacting enough to cause the symptoms.

Of course, I cut those foods out immediately, which helped, but it wasn't enough. That was when my doctor started calling around for help. What he came up with was a product called Inflammacore. It's a powder you mix with water that has a bunch of soothing and anti-inflammatory food and plant products. It also has a good amount of caffeic acid phenethyl ester, which is a pretty expensive ingredient. (look it up, it's interesting) In my own research, I found out about pre/probiotics. Long story short, probiotics are microorganisms that colonize the gut and regulate the processes down there. Prebiotics are food for the probiotics, because they have to make it through the stomach and small intestine, which takes a few hours. The food helps keep the organisms alive on their perilous journey.

For me, after about a week of taking 1 scoop of the powder with pre/probiotics in the morning and another scoop by itself at night, my appetite decreased and my moods stabilized somewhat. I did this for 3 months and got better and better. I still had to go on antidepressants later, but it was a big difference.

When you say you have recurrent diarrhea, it sounds to me like your guts are inflamed and angry about something, whether it's stress, or a bug, or some food that doesn't agree with you. I would guess that if you tackle that first, you might get a leg up on the depression. Did you know that 80% of your serotonin is produced in the gut? That's not some new age bullshit, you can look it up.

I'm not going to act like I know the first thing about narcolepsy, it's completely outside my experience. I was tired all the time, but I'm sure there's a difference.

So, not to sound like an advertisement, but here is the Inflammacore (not cheap, but check the reviews - orange is the best, the other two are chalky tasting) and here are the probiotics, which I started by taking every day. Now I just take them twice a week. I am not affiliated with these companies, but they should pay me as I've recommended these products to several people over the last couple years.
