OliverKlozerof Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 (edited) Every couple years I get a bloated gut. Have done detox at Spa Resort on Samui about 10 times, but their prices have gone way up. At The Spa (among other things), you take a 'detox shake' of psylluim husk powder and some bentonite clay with water and a little pineapple juice 7 times a day. Plus herbs from a company called Arise & Shine in the US: 1) "Chompers" ("intestinal cleansers"), and 2) "Herbal Nutrients." These seem to help clean the sludge out of your intestines. (I always feel fantastic after the 1-week fast-cleanse.) So now my gut is acting up again (feel bloated and like a lot of stuff is 'percolating' in there). I'm currently doing a fresh juice fast, which I'm sure will help. But I'd also like to get some herbs or other supplements to help clean out my intestines. I guess there are a couple choices: 1) traditional Chinese herb shop or clinic, 2) shop or pharmacy selling concoctions to help with this. I'm in upper Sukhumvit. Googling said Boots pharmacies have probiotics, which I think might also be good at this time. Maybe they also have a good supplement for the gut? There's also a place on Sukh Soi 22 called Sunshine Market I may go to today. Pretty sure they'll have probiotic and maybe some good supplements. But when I've been there before I found them to be very expensive. Any helpful info/suggestions appreciated.

Sheryl Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 I very much doubt the herbal supplements made much difference, more likely it was the effects of the fast. You can get bentonite and psylllium online from https://healthfoodthailand.com/en/?gclid=EAIaIQobChMImsTs-Nnq6wIV0w0rCh2g2QesEAAYASAAEgJy1fD_BwE Can also get psyllium at Villa Markets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonray Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 Yes...eat more fiber. I find that eating 2 Kiwi fruit daily helps significantly. Rice is a culprit in blocking things up. So limit that and eat more fiber. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
