You probably experience these things, but think nothing of it.

Here are 5 "normal" signs that your health is deteriorating,

+ what causes them, & what to do about it:

1. FOAMY URINE - a "normal" sign of poor health.

The urine contains a few soap-like substances:

→ Fatty acids
→ Bile acids

These cause the urine to be thick + foamy.

It is normal for the urine to be foamy in the morning,

but if it is ALWAYS like this, something's wrong.

CAUSES OF FOAMY URINE

⬩Stress
⬩Insulin resistance
⬩Inflammation
⬩Intestinal bacterial overgrowth

these will increase the excretion of these soapy like substances.

Would investigate:

⬩Thyroid function / supplementation
⬩B vitamins
⬩Antimicrobials

to start.

2. COATED TONGUE - A "normal" red flag

Literally everyone has this if you start to look for it.

This is a bacterial or fungal biofilm that forms in the gut and extends to the mouth.

If it's in the back and has this kinda yellowish tint, it's likely bacterial.

FIXING A COATED TONGUE:

Ensure good GUT MOTILITY.

Without that, the contents of the gut move back upwards towards the mouth.

‣ Raw carrot
‣ Coffee
‣ Mastic gum

are good starts.

If motility is good, then consider antimicrobials.

Pau D'Arco is a simple first option.

3. A CRASH AFTER EATING

It is normal to feel relaxed after eating,

but if you get severe lethargy, you either:

1. Depend on stress hormones for energy, and when you eat, lowering stress, your metabolism does not work properly.

2. You get tons of inflammation when eating.

AVOIDING THE POST MEAL CRASH

If the problem is driven by low baseline stress hormones, some good tools:

‣ Magnesium glycinate
‣ Pregnenolone
‣ Progesterone
‣ Vitamin C

Pregnenolone helped a TON here. This one specifically. healthnatura.com/pregnenolone-2…

AVOIDING THE MID DAY CRASH (P2)

If driven by high post meal inflammation,

you're likely absorbing tons of bacterial toxins (LPS) that you shouldn't be, causing inflammation + fatigue.

Antimicrobials can be helpful here as well.

Multi-strain probiotics can be good start, too.

4. WAKING UP TO PEE

Again very common, but NOT normal.

The medical term for this is "nocturia," and is commonly caused by night time STRESS.

Hormones like:

➤ Adrenaline
➤ Noradrenaline
➤ Aldosterone
➤ Parathyroid hormone

can all cause this.

TOOLS TO STOP PEEING IN THE NIGHT:

➤ Glycine
➤ Salt
➤ Vitamin C
➤ Carbs
➤ Calcium
➤ Vitamin D
➤ Zinc

all have the power to help with this.

Getting to the source of the chronic stress will be key in the long term.

5. ALWAYS WANTING TO BE ALONE

Sadly this has become very normalized, but humans are social beings.

Social withdrawal is a sign of sickness.

Injection of endotoxin causes social disconnection.

Endotoxin originates in the gut, leaking into the blood with gut issues or stress.

SOLVING ANTI-SOCIAL TENDENCIES

Endotoxin seems to be a primary trigger here, so again antimicrobials should be helpful.

Improving gut barrier function with things like:

★ Glutamine
★ Zinc Carnosine
★ Lactoferrin

& more can reduce the leakage of endotoxin into the blood.
