Dr. Gundry's supplement
Posted: Fri Feb 15, 2019 1:39 pm
I've just had something unexpected happen. I ordered something called Gundry MD Total Restore Gut Lining Support Blend 90 Capsules from Amazon: https://smile.amazon.com/Gundry-Restore ... 137&sr=8-9
I heard about it on a podcast one night while I was walking around a bit waiting for my kratom to kick in. It's supposed to help if you have a problem with nausea or upset stomachs, which I occasionally do. So I figured it might be worth a try. Very soon afterwards I went into the hospital for a total knee replacement (TKR). I was, of course, given a good supply of pain killers (Oxy, stuff like that) so I wasn't surprised when my RLS symptoms were completely covered for my time in the hospital.
When I got home I started to taper off of the Oxy, and substitute kratom. That took about a week. Another week went by, and it occurred to me that I did not have any RLS symptoms yet. That seemed odd to me, because even while on kratom I get symptoms when the kratom wears off. But nothing, as far as I could tell. What was I doing differently?
Then it occurred to me that I was taking this Dr. Gundry supplement for my gut health.
At this point (a month since my surgery) I haven't taken any opioids for at least two weeks, and have just taken my usual dose of kratom to help with the TKR pain. And still I have not even a whisper of RLS symptoms, from either leg--the one with the TKR or the one that wasn't touched.
So I'm not sure what's happening. Perhaps the kratom is completely covering the RLS. Since I didn't use it in the hosp. a lesser amount may be all that's need to give me complete coverage. Or--and here is the wild hope--this supplement from Dr. Gundry is healing whatever needed to be healed in me to get rid of the RLS.
i figure it's going to be weeks--probably months--until the TKR is completely working and I can tell with more assurance whether or not this supplement is working for RLS. (It is, by the way, helping with nausea after eating). But on the off chance that it really is something that works for RLS, I decided to post, in case other people want to check it out. Dr. Gundry is a very reputable doctor (cardiologist, researcher, etc.) although, unfortunately the advertising he does makes him sound like some guy just trying to make a quick buck. I think a bottle of his supplements costs about fifty dollars now. It might be worth a try. I plan to keep using it.
