The Nemechek Protocol involves the administering of fish oil, extra virgin olive oil, and the prebiotic inulin (in older patients, inulin is replaced with Rifaximin, a prescription antibiotic). Dr. Nemechek uses these to reduce gut inflammation, restore omega 3:6 balances, and aid in cellular repair.
Dr. Nemecheck believes many children with neurological dysfunction and developmental delays are suffering from inflammatory damage that leads to cumulative brain injury. This inflammation may lead to a build-up of proprionic acid, which leads to white cell dysfunction (also called “microglia”), which causes neurons not to “prune” correctly, creating developmental delays.
Undiagnosed SIBO (Small Intestine Bacterial Overgrowth) is one type of this inflammatory damage. With the addition of inulin to their diets, Dr. Nemechek believes that a fermentation process occurs that produces a substance that fights the propionic acid, which acts like a sedative to the neurological system. As a result, patients experience a cognitive “awakening.”
On his website, Dr. Nemechek explains how the inflammatory response of bacterial overgrowth can cause developmental delay:
Excess inflammation from leaky gut, microglia priming and omega 3:6 imbalances prevents otherwise healthy microglia from pruning fast enough, and results in developmental delay. The priming effect from the bacterial overgrowth causes many microglia to shift into the M1-phenotype, and results in the brain being less able to fully repair itself from commonplace physical (falls and bumps to the head), emotional (fear, abuse, neglect) and inflammatory (surgery, infections, vaccines) brain injuries.
A small residual amount of damage will remain after each injury, and each new injury leaves residual damage upon the prior injury in a process referred to as cumulative brain injury. The abnormal neurological functioning from cumulative brain injury can occur slowly over time and or rapidly depending on the intensity of the brain injury. Damage to different portions of the brain will result in different outward symptoms such as ADHD, chronic anxiety or gait abnormalities.
I was on this protocol a month and a half ago for two weeks I think but I was doing it wrong - too much inulin and went up too fast with the fish oil plus I was using low DHA fish oil. And I was using tons of other supplements which you're not supposed to do. I've also now found out that inulin is only meant for kids under ten and he uses Rifaximin in adults to reset the gut bacteria so I'm going try and get that prescribed this coming week. My speech and articulation improved a lot under this protocol however I had increased social anxiety in the gym so I stopped but now I've found out this is normal and there is an awakening stage for the first 2-6 weeks which can be an increase in anxiety, emotions, plus on top of that I was doing the protocol completely wrong.

I am going to try it again as I think it will work this protocol gets the brain to repair itself, I must note that a high strength liquid fish oil gave me bad brain fog symptoms and bladder burning, dilated pupils if you're going to try use Now foods DHA fish oil capsules this I can tolerate a lot better and move up slowly. I will update you guys with my progress and if you want to try its very inexpensive and no risks involved.
There aren't any trials on this protocol which I do find strange however it is relatively new so maybe they will come. Also on the facebook pages for the protocol I see masses of people saying how this protocol has completely changed their children for the better some even losing their autism diagnosis.
