PHGG for Endo Belly, SIBO, IBS and Gut Dysbiosis
This EndoLife - A podcast by Jessica Duffin

Today I want to talk about another short chain fatty acid booster, which also supports long term gut healing and symptom relief, and that’s partially hydrolysed guar gum.PHGG is a soluble fibre derived from the guar bean plant, it is not exactly the same as the food ingredient guar gum. PHGG is broken down by enzymes from guar gum, and dissolves in water. In contrast, guar gum is a thickening agent and too much guar gum in certain foods can cause gut problems, whereas PHGG is recognised as being a supportive, prebiotic fibre and supplement for gut health.Read more.Show notesPHGG and butyratehttps://www.mdpi.com/2673-8007/4/2/49https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0308814623016242Bloating, constipation, diarrhoea, IBS and dosinghttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25843197/https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0899900702010328https://www.monashfodmap.com/blog/fibre-supplements-ibs/https://figshare.utas.edu.au/articles/conference_contribution/Does_Partially_Hydrolysed_Guar_Gum_HAVE_a_Role_to_Play_in_the_Treatment_of_Irritable_Bowel_Syndrome_A_Systematic_Review/23148182https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0899900705003138Microbiome, PHGG and SCFAhttps://www.mdpi.com/2072-6643/12/5/1257https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0308814623016242https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25519526/https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4744437/https://www.elsevier.es/en-revista-annals-hepatology-16-articulo-notable-intestinal-dysbiosis-orchestrated-by-S1665268122001545https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0008621519301302Endo and microbiome alterationshttps://www.frontiersin.org/journals/microbiology/articles/10.3389/fmicb.2024.1363455/fullhttps://www.frontiersin.org/journals/endocrinology/articles/10.3389/fendo.2023.1110824/fullhttps://atm.amegroups.org/article/view/54025/htmlhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9729346/https://www.mdpi.com/1424-8247/16/12/1696https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00404-024-07631-xSIBOhttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20937045/Microbiome testshttps://smartnutrition.co.uk/shop/comprehensive-stool-test-gi-map-pathogen-plus-uk-and-europe-igimap/https://invivohealthcare.com/products/testing/vaginal-ecologix/ (My favourite for UK)https://regeneruslabs.com/products/womens-completehttps://www.juno.bio (USA based fav)Free resources:This podcast!
