Week 5 Day 2 reset transition

    I'm down another half pound. I weighed 170.5lbs this morning. The Omron handheld device gave my Body Fat as 13%. I didn't do any exercise yesterday. I demonstrated the exercises for the class and that was about it.
   The only thing I'm doing besides the starch reset is working on populating my colon with healthy gut flora and then feeding it. I'm using the protocol laid out my Richard, Tim, and Dr. BG over at www.freetheanimal.com. They have put together a group of probiotics and nutrients to feed them that will help establish healthy gut flora and feed it. I'm using a couple of brands that are different than what the are using, but its the same product. Richard's blogpost the contains the protocol is:

If you are having trouble losing fat. I think this would be a good ideal for you to try. We are what we digest and assimilate, not just what we eat. We are also what our gut flora excrete. Think about it.






Here are the products for the protocol to populate and feed your gut flora. I'm still waiting on my Prescipt-Assist Broad Spectrum Probiotic Prebiotic Complex from Safer Medical Inc.


 Probiotic-3 by Advanced Othromolecular Research


     Probiotic 3 contains three strains of bacteria: Streptococcus faecalis‚ Clostridium butyricum and Bacillus mesentericus. S. faecalis is naturally found in the gastrointestinal tract and is helpful in preventing the growth of harmful bacteria. C. butyricum is also a natural part of the microflora‚ and breaks down dietary fiber that is otherwise indigestible. This breakdown produces several nutrients‚ including ones that are used by human cells in the digestive tract‚ and that reduce inflammation and that reduce inflammation and intestinal permeability. B. mesentericus upports the growth of the other two bacteria as well as the beneficial bacterial strain Bifidobacterium.
    A healthy microflora is essential for the optimal health of the gastrointestinal tract. Probiotic 3 provides a room temperature-stable formula of three strains to enhance the microflora while blocking the growth of pathogenic bacteria.

ProBiotic 3 contains Bio-Three®‚ a combination of probiotics clinically studied and used i Japan for over 50 years. Probiotics are healthy microorganisms that support the natural and beneficial bacteria found in the human body. These bacteria‚ known a sthe human microflora‚ are important for many biological functions including the maturation of the immune system‚ the regulation of the inflammatory response‚ and the optimal health of the gastrointestinal tract.

Barry Farm's Green Plantain flour to feed probiotics.



Wedo's Green Banana Flour for feeding probiotics.





Bob's Red Mill Potato Starch to feed the little gut critters.


Jarrow's Inulin Fos because those little animals in our guts are hungry. 


Inulin and FructoOligoSaccharides (FOS) are soluble prebiotic fibers that promote gut and overall health through their fermentation by gut flora, to yield important metabolites, including lactic acid and the short chain fatty acids acetate, propionate and butyrate. These metabolites help to maintain proper pH in the gut, discourage the growth of unfriendly bacteria, reduce the absorption of toxic ammonia and positively affect bone health by increasing the bioavailability of dietary calcium. Moreover, acetate, propionate and butyrate promote the integrity of the intestinal cells lining the colon and promote healthy lipid metabolism.





Last night I had some steamed broccoli

With a salad of course.


And some lentils. I had these for breakfast too. El Charro's salsa too!

This mornings salad.




I had berries for dessert this morning.
