Excellent! Let’s build a personalized gut-healing protocol that:

1. Reduces inflammation

2. Repairs the gut lining

3. Rebalances your microbiome

4. Is tailored to your blood type and autoimmune risk

👣 Step-by-Step Gut-Healing Protocol (Blood-Type-Based)

🔬 Step 1: Remove the Triggers (Ditch the Fire Starters)

Remove foods and lifestyle habits that promote bad bacteria and gut permeability:

• Processed foods, refined sugar, gluten, alcohol, seed oils

• Medications like NSAIDs and antibiotics (only when necessary)

• Chronic stress – practice daily calm time (even 5 mins)

🌱 Step 2: Repair and Calm the Gut Wall (Soothe the Fire)

Use natural herbs and nutrients to heal inflammation and support the mucosal barrier.

Nutrient/Herb	Purpose	Works Best For
L-Glutamine	Repairs gut lining	All blood types
Slippery Elm	Coats and soothes intestines	A, AB, B
Zinc Carnosine	Helps restore tight junctions	O, B
Marshmallow Root	Anti-inflammatory & healing	A, AB
Aloe Vera (inner leaf)	Reduces gut inflammation	O, B (avoid in excess for A)
Chamomile Tea	Calming, antispasmodic	A, AB

🧫 Step 3: Rebalance the Microbiome (Crowd Out the Bad Guys)

🌟 Probiotic Strains (Pick Based on Blood Type):

Blood Type	Key Focus	Best Probiotic Strains
Type O	Gut immunity, inflammation	Lactobacillus rhamnosus, Saccharomyces boulardii, Bacillus coagulans
Type A	Calming the immune response	Bifidobacterium longum, Lactobacillus plantarum, L. reuteri
Type B	Balanced gut-immune link	L. casei, B. bifidum, L. acidophilus
Type AB	Brain-gut calming & immune modulation	L. plantarum, B. breve, L. fermentum

🟡 Add prebiotics (the food for probiotics):

• Chicory root

• Green banana flour

• Garlic & onions (if tolerated)

• Ground flaxseed

💪 Step 4: Reinforce the Gut-Immune Balance

These help your immune system stop attacking itself while continuing to protect you.

Supplement	Function	Good For
Vitamin D3 + K2	Regulates immune response	All types
Omega-3 (EPA/DHA)	Lowers cytokines and inflammation	Especially helpful for O, B
Quercetin	Natural mast cell stabilizer	Great for histamine-sensitive types (A, AB)
Turmeric (Curcumin)	Balances inflammatory cytokines	Best for A, AB (use low dose for O)

🥗 Step 5: Eat for Gut & Blood Type Harmony

Blood Type	Avoid	Emphasize
O	Wheat, dairy	Lean protein, green veggies, fermented foods
A	Red meat, dairy	Plant proteins, lightly steamed veggies, soothing teas
B	Chicken, corn	Eggs, green veggies, lamb, oats
AB	Caffeine, smoked meats	Seafood, leafy greens, cultured dairy (in moderation)
