Herbalogica ?

Update: email:

Hi Nancy,

You could probably use almost all of it except for the appetite appeaser and the intestinal cleanser. DHEA is just an Omega 3 fat and the digestive enzymes/probiotics are for intestinal health. Plus, it sounds like you’ll get some Protein Shakes out of it!

There's quite a bit in there you might use post op. How strong is the DHEA? My bariatric endocrinologist has me of DHEA. HE is particular about the quality, though.

I use Probiotics periodically to keep things healthy and for good gut immunity. Especially if I've had an antibiotic.

The big question is the quality of the stuff in the box :)

DHEA is NOT simply an Omega 3. I know this because the Endocrinologist and I had a discussion about its hormonal function before he put me on it. Before I started taking it, I read about it. (He put me on it in the hopes my body would protect lean muscle and mobile fat over muscle.)

See below from National Institutes of Health:

http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/druginfo/natural/331.html

To be safer, you really ought to do your own research based on the ingredients listed so you understand what you've got. I do think you can use almost everything on that list if it's from a good source and reputable lab. Would be awesome to use it. supplements are expensive! And the liquid forms may be better absorbed.

I just realized Jill was probably reading "DHA or Dhea" those are Omegas.

DHEA is a hormone produced by the adrenals.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
