Digestion, stomach and gut health

[Sakis89]

For the last months i m blasting high Trest, Primo and HGH and i m getting some stomach issues.
Digestion of the food is slow and i m not hungry most of the time.
Every time i eat something my gut gets abnormally big, which stays like this during the day. But when i wake up in the morning its in normal size.
During night time im getting heartburn and sometimes i wake up puking some kind of fluid.

Any ideas on how to improve gut and stomach health and deal with those issues?

See my answer to the other guy above

Then what would you recommend for supplement health in the gut when blasting

Betaine HCL to ensure proper nutrient absorption and Epsom salts twice a week to make sure things are moving.

Would not recommend just tossing betaine in especially if dealing with acid reflux from unknown causes

Acid reflux is always caused by an acid deficiency.

Acid deficiency -> food bolus doesn't get properly dissolved -> gastric flap valve doesn't close -> acid comes back up

Sorry I’ll rephrase. Used acid reflux as a blanket statement for gastric issues. Heartburn, indigestion, acid reflux, etc. In my case was caused by gastric flap not closing (not due to lack of acid but due to a weakened flap), as well as stomach ulcers. After taking betaine and acv, I further damaged my lining and made the ulcers much worse

And what solved your issues ?

Lowering food, low fodmap, and high dose omeprazole improved the gastritis by a lot but it’s still there to an extent. If I come down to true TRT for a couple months that should help clear the rest of it

high dose omeprazole improved the gastritis by a lot but it’s still there to an extent.

Illusion of a solution.

Low stomach acid -> undigested food + pylori + SIBO -> nutrient deficiency
