Supplements: IBS-D

Glutamine is an amino acid that serves as the primary source of energy for intestinal cells, and can be used to mitigate diarrhea and some forms of bloating. Glutamine supplementation has also been shown to enhance muscle recovery and reduce soreness.

Recommended Dosage: 5 grams 3x/day

Glutamine

Collagen Peptides

Zinc

Collagen is the most abundant protein in the body, forming connective tissue in skin, muscle, bones, joints, and the GI tract. Supplementation can help both protect intestinal integrity and aid in muscle repair and recovery. Overuse can cause bloating in some.

Recommended Dosage: up to 15 g/day

Zinc is an essential mineral that plays an essential role in intestinal structure and is commonly used to treat diarrhea. Zinc can also be key for recovery, as it has been shown to increase sleep quality and duration. Be wary, though, as overuse of zinc can lead to anemia.

Recommended Dosage: 25 mg Zinc Gluconate
