1. Is there anything that helps with autism and violence?
Autism is closely linked to gut health. A damaged microbiome can worsen behaviors such as violence. Nutrition plays a big role in this.
- Avoid all processed foods, including pizza and restaurant meals, which often contain hidden chemicals.
- Switch to organic, home-cooked meals. Growing your own food or buying it locally can help keep costs down.
- The GAPS diet has been proven to be effective for many autistic children.
Jini says probiotics are also crucial. If bowel movements occur more than three times a day, use powder. Otherwise, capsules like Healthy Trinity can work. Be smart about giving probiotics – mix them into foods like yogurt or chocolate pudding without the child noticing.
2. What should I do if probiotics harm my child's stomach?
If probiotics cause stomach pain, start with smaller doses. Even a pinch or an eighth of a teaspoon can make a difference. First, use bifidofactor probiotics to help gently rebuild the microbiome.
Stress can also be a factor. Think about family dynamics, especially as they relate to high-pressure activities. Children need to feel supported and not burdened by expectations. Make sure exercise or other activities are fun and not anxiety-provoking.
3. Is wild oregano taken orally effective for staph infection in the nose?
Yes, wild oregano taken orally can support the body during infections. However, direct application to the affected area is more effective.
- Dilute wild oregano and use it with a nasal spray for nasal infections.
- For sinus infections, use a combination of wild oregano and colloidal silver in a neti pot. This ensures that the treatment reaches the site of infection.
4. What tips do you have for bile acid malabsorption and diarrhea?
Malabsorption of bile acid often results in acidic, yellow diarrhea. How to fix the problem:
- Start with Bifido Factor Probiotic Powder. Start with small amounts (e.g. a pinch) and increase gradually.
- Once diarrhea improves, introduce other probiotics such as Digestal La and Megadophilus.
- Continue taking probiotics for at least a year to stabilize your gut health.
The key is to take it slow and steady. Avoid overwhelming your system with large doses all at once.
5. How do you get the courage to stop taking medication?
Stopping medications requires careful planning and guidance. Never stop abruptly. Work with a doctor or follow a gradual weaning protocol.
First, familiarize yourself with natural healing methods. Start with probiotics or gentle natural remedies while still taking medication. This will help you build confidence in these alternatives. As you gradually notice improvements, you will feel more prepared for the full transition.
6. What would you recommend to a child who is malnourished, not gaining weight and growing slowly?
Nutrient-dense shakes like Absorb Plus can help children gain weight and get the nutrients they need for growth. Start with small doses to avoid overloading your system.
More tips:
- Add Absorb Plus to raw, grass-fed milk for additional benefits.
- Use food-based shakes with ingredients like avocado, banana, or yogurt.
- Supplement with Quick Plus Bone Matrix to support skeletal development.
It's easier to drink calories than eat them. Focus on making nutrient-dense shakes that they will enjoy.

7. When to start probiotic enemas for heavy bleeding?
Probiotic enemas can also help with active bleeding. Some experts recommend starting right away. Others suggest first using a healing enema to stop bleeding and then switching to probiotic enemas. Jini suggests following your intuition and monitoring your body's response.

8. How can I stop biological treatments for Crohn's disease with fistula formation?
Research suggests that biologic drugs may contribute to fistula formation by suppressing immune responses. The transition from them includes:
- Treat infections directly with wild oregano and probiotics.
- Application of antipathogenic treatments such as wild oregano with injections directly on fistula sites.

These methods support your body's natural defenses rather than suppressing them.
9. Is there a time when using spore probiotics is OK?
Spore probiotics (soil based) are highly competitive and can destroy bad bacteria and yeast. However, they can also cause long-term problems by introducing spores that are difficult to eliminate into the intestines.
Avoid using spore probiotics, especially if you have a chronic illness or a weakened immune system. Their risks outweigh their short-term benefits.

10. What can I use to remove skin tags from my anus?
A mixture of 50/50 DMSO and supersaturated potassium iodide can help remove skin tags. Be careful – application may sting or burn. Start with a small amount and watch the reaction.
Surgery is another option, but it can be painful and often results in recurrence. Jini recommends carefully considering all options before proceeding.

Ulcerative colitis has various causes:
- Use of antibiotics
- Birth method (vaginal vs. cesarean section)
- History of the family microbiome
- Trauma and stress
Healing depends on the severity of the disease and the damage caused by medications. Consider the physical, mental and spiritual aspects of healing for long-term recovery.
