Awesome. Any updates from your journey? Im just starting out now!

been following for a while - just fired my Naturopathic Dr. and ordered the Elemental Diet looking forward to starting - what makes sense to me is what I will go with ...

Interesting!

I noticed there are 2g of fiber per serving in Elemental Heal. This could lead up to 20g of fiber or so a day. Will this much fiber feed SIBO? Does someone with SIBO need the low-carb version because of this?

I have very mild UC and just found out I’m lactose intolerant. My lactose enzymes are low (not non existent though). Can I use your elemental diet as someone with mild lactose intolerance?

What about the first few feet of the small intestine? Does the SIBO still survive there? If so, isn't that a problem?

During elemental diet do you take probiotic?

in your book it says you have a recipe to make your own elemental powder,and broth for the short fast before the diet,where would i find those recipes?

Great question! So all of the support materials are here: drruscio.com/gutbook-resources/ :)

Where are the ingredients listed ? Love the idea and see the “ other” ingredients on my tub of no whey but what are the basic ingredients?

Very interesting post so thank you so much.I was interested in your Elemental Heal product, but unfortunately, it has stevia in it. Do you have stevia free stuff by any chance????? (Stevia put me in hospital for five days with severe colitis (Sigh!!!!😪😭😢), after a "gut health" product I was sold did not actively list stevia in its ingredients. Instead, the term "natural sugars 960" was used. (which I thought meant plain old sugar, but it's stevia) Nowadays I am assiduous in checking for this additive, but sadly, it is in most "gut health" products, including yours, (which at least you list as stevia).

Dextrose, maltodextrin, yeast extract, tapioca starch, potato starch are all the same thing and when I cut it out all my joint pain, rheumatoid arthritis, swollen legs and joints, stomach issues all went away. That stuff is poison and in almost all packaged and processed foods

My gastroenterologist prescribed Xifaxan for my Sibo, but having insurance headaches getting authorizations. That prescription only costs $2,000 without 8:35 insurance! I ordered the Elemental Heal and it’s arriving today! Do you have any recommendations! Should I take both? If so, in what order?

how was the elemental diet? did it work for you?

Well, yes & no. I drank 3 shakes a day, and nothing else but water for 2 weeks. I lost 25 lbs, and had a flat stomach for the 1st time in a few years. The bloating slowly started coming back when I started eating again. I did end up using Xifaxan too, but sadly I’m in the same boat again a year later… 😔

Help! My wife has ulcerative colitis that is now diagnosed as crohns. She’s literally had hundreds of surgeries and her intestine was removed for the J-pouch surgery. She now has fistulas and recently had a few procedures to drain out an infection. Thank god for insurance because they were hundreds of thousands of dollars. I found out about elemental diets from a search and ordered your product. Hope it helps her because she’s in pain every single day and cries every day because she can’t even live a normal life or take care of our son with any level of enjoyment. Every day is a huge struggle. I really hope this helps!

I'm so sorry to hear that. I do find elemental diets to be extremely effective, so I'm glad you found that option, but if your wife needs/wants more help through the process, she is also welcome to work with us at the clinic: drruscio.com/virtual-clinic/ Best of luck, and please follow up with how it goes. I'll also attach an article of mine here about the elemental diet that includes some tips for success. drruscio.com/elemental-diet/ Hope that helps!

@@4evelean If you are seeking a full gut healing protocol, I recommend my book Healthy Gut, Healthy You ((drruscio.com/getgutbook), where I walk through a DIY step by step protocol to improve gut health - it lays out what to do and in what order to make sure you don’t waste time and money on unnecessary supplements.

Please correct me if I am wrong, but would this elemental diet be around 1 thousand dollars for 3 weeks? Also, would just a prolonged water fast yield similar results?

Pricing would depend on the dosage that is right for you. Everyone is a bit different. I would recommend you check into the self-guided Great-in-8 protocol provided in my book Healthy Gut, Healthy You (drruscio.com/getgutbook/) or if you'd like to work with someone, get in touch with our clinic (ruscioinstitute.com/).

Our whey-free version is a great choice.

Great video, already loving the chocolate whey-free version to calm my terrible post covid GI symptoms. I tested it out by replacing half my calories with it, and it definitely helps. Even drinking it super slow, I struggle with feeling sugar rushes, as I have been mostly carnivore for 4 years. Also, my usually clear skin started breaking out like I'm a teenager again...any thoughts? Thanks! 😊
