IBS & IBD Book Review

Natural healing methods for IBS and IBD (Crohns, Ulcerative Colitis, Diverticulitis) that work! How to become and remain drug and surgery-free. Jini Patel's mission in life is to share her elemental diet & natural supplementation plan to achieve ongoing, long-term health for people with Ulcerative Colitis, Crohn's, Diverticulitis and IBS. Her approach is fresh and straight to the point without a lot of space filler that most books have.

The author of these two books, Jini Patel Thompson was diagnosed with Crohn's Disease in 1986. She followed the so called protocol for treatment with no measurable success. She sought after experiential and alternative healing methods and therapies over the next seven years while she lived and worked in England, Japan, and Canada. It has now been over a decade that she has remained drug and surgery-free. She manages her symptoms and heals her flare-ups using the natural methods described in both of her books, "Listen to Your Gut" and "the IBD Remission Diet". Two very informative reads that you don't want to pass up, a must for any IBS or IBD patient, particularly those that have run the obstacle course of medical treatments.
