Microbiome Self-Experiment - HBOT and Berberis darwinni

UPDATE: Overall my microbiome was excellent, bar missing bifidobacteria. However, some of the results were quite significant and differences between the different 'treatments surprising. So, I won't be publishing them here, but disseminate them elswhere.... Stay tuned. 

Testing the impacts of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy and Berberis darwinni on my gut microbiome. By breathing in 100% oxygen under pressure this is meant to push increased oxygen into tissue thereby lowering all sorts of inflammatory response. With the long-had desire to test my gut microbiome I decided to test HBOT and the extract of Berberis darwinni on my microbiome. 

There are 2 phases to the experiment, each lasting two weeks

Phase 1: HBOT and the Berberis darwinni extract 3 x a day 1ml 

Phase 2: Berberis darwinni

Tried to record what I am eating daily, but gave up replicating exact meals (not organised enough for this) as my diet is pretty steady.  Since the HBOT tank is in Glengormley, I added a lot bike miles to my normal commutes, which may or may not have more effect than the HBOT. 

Here is a snapshot of what I am eating. Veggies are mostly from Helen's Bay Organics, and I try to buy most other things organic, too. Few over indulgences of protein bars and the odd gluten-free brownie as the intense cycling made me crave sugar. 2-3 alcoholic drinks a week. 

Diet is low in FODMAP, gluten-free and sulphite-free/ low.
