    I’m really struggling, been told I have gastroparesis. My bilirubin is over 20. I have Gilbert’s. I believe that Keto/carnivore can help with my insulin resistance and highish blood pressure, but also it can be bad for Gilbert’s,especially the higher fat content. Please advise. I also had a large fibroid and hysterectomy 14 years ago. Yes possibly oestrogen dominance. Not sure what to do for the best. 🙏

    Hi there. It seems that not only do I have Gilbert’s syndrome, but also poor methylation. What specific liver function tests can I ask my functional doctor about in order to test each phase of liver detox? Thanks!

    I have had high bilirubin on most of my blood tests and was told I have Gilbert’s syndrome. I’d like to confirm with DNA and also have family members check theirs. We have all done 23and me so I have the raw data but just not fully sure how to review the snps for Gilbert’s? Do you have direction/advice on that?
    Thank you!

    SO happy to come across your work. I was born with jaundice, high bilirubin starting in puberty, and later in life developed gallstones that caused chronic pancreatitis which then led to an aneurism in one of the arteries leading to my Pancreas. I really have suffered the trifecta here and am trying now at 56 years old to manage this so no further damage can be done. Doctors always dismiss the Gilbert’s Syndrome as “nothing to worry about”. I do not drink much because it makes me so ill but doctors always seem suspect be cause of my high liver enzyme readings. Where do I start with additional testing or supplements to help alleviate symptoms?

    Good Day.
    I have GS but have been told it’s not a problem for years. I have really struggled over the years with moods, anxiety, on edge feeling, low moods and not able to function normally life is a big struggle for me a lot of days.
    I now believe it is all related to my GS and the Dr is wrong but I don’t know where to start to help myself as my Dr won’t hear anything about it.
    I asked for more testing, but was told no as it wouldn’t achieve anything anyway and was a waist.
    Could you please help me with where to start?
    I eat very healthily, and take supplements my naturopath recommended.
