Emerging research in gut health involves Tryptophan. The amino acid many Americans associate with Thanksgiving!
Specifically, the research involved Tryptophan’s role in the Kynurenine pathway and Indole pathway.
We are going to talk about the Indole Pathway.
This pathway is critical to understand for anyone with digestive issues. Especially for unsolved brain fog, bloating, and constipation, even on a low-FODMAP diet. Many years ago, a patient once asked me, “ I eat no carbs, so how can I be bloated?” I was stumped a bit until I learned about the indole pathway.
