Funny enough, I was cramping so bad last night. It was horrible but thank god I had Advil.

The Spicy Autistic Femme

I actually found a Harvard article about this. Here’s an excerpt:

Autistic people are more likely to suffer from gastrointestinal (GI) ailments than the general population. They are especially more difficult to identify and diagnose in adults with communication challenges. GI symptoms can range from mild stomachaches to serious, persistent vomiting. There is no single set of signs, symptoms, or treatments that applies to all autistic patients.

Another article said:

According to many researchers, the GI issues that come with ASD might be due to two factors: firstly, inappropriate immune activation Trusted Source, causing inflammation of the tract; and, secondly, differences in the types of gut bacteria Trusted Sourcethat are present.

I find this very interesting and kinda annoying too.

Researchers connecting pieces of the massive Alzheimer's puzzle are closer to slotting the next one in place, with yet another link between our guts and brain. Recent animal studies have demonstrated Alzheimer's can be passed on to young mice through a transfer of gut microbes, confirming a link between the digestive system and the health of the brain. A new study adds further support to the theory that inflammation could be the mechanism through which this occurs.

Gut Protection

In the gut, a cytokine [a type of small signalling molecule] called IL-22 can have either an inflammatory or protective effect. This study reveals the molecular mechanisms underlying maintenance of a mucus layer and cell regeneration conferring a protective effect by IL-22 in a mouse colitis model and in human tissue

Pancakes without syrup are Dry.

But pancakes WITH syrup now cause Very Painful Gut and Sometimes Migraine from idk, the concentrated sugar.

And Jam just. Does NOT. Cut the Dry.

…so I guess what I need is like. Almost a fruit chutney or something as a sauce. Something still Wet and Has Flavor, but naturally has Less Concentrated Sugar—like that fruit sauce stuff you make for cakes, but Not Add Sugar (or, only a little bit)

Alcohol is an inflammatory shit storm to your brain, liver, gut, and body. It takes 72 hours to leave your system. During that time it crashes your dopamine, making you feel low. If you choose to drink, do it sparingly and follow it with plenty of water, green tea, high quality protein, lots of fruits & veggies, hydrating foods, healthy fats like nuts and seeds, and take a cold shower.

This is basically what's wrong with me

My mum’s been giving me probiotics and some gut friendly meds and now yours truly is bloated more. 😀

still waiting on the results of the biopsies my gastro took when he was up in my guts so the jury's out on what exactly my problem is (99.9% chance it's some form of IBD but since the initial findings included both ileitis and colitis idk what flavor he's gonna diagnose me with); however, I did get the results back from the 5000 blood test he ordered me and every single one of them was normal other than me continuing to be woefully anemic. which is both funny and a good case for why this guy was like "no, we gotta do the whole horse and pony show, you can't diagnosis these things from labs alone." so let this be a lesson to you!!!

T for Tolerant

Single cell analyses and live-imaging in mouse gut reveals mechanisms underlying tolerance of the immune system's regulatory T cells to chronic bacterial infection and the intestinal niches where this takes place. Greater understanding of the disruption of tolerance which results in colitis
