This is a video of a presentation I gave to health food store owners at the CHFA West conference on how to help customers who come to us with intestinal problems. In it I talk about the most effective dietary supplements for IBD/IBS, Crohn’s disease and colitis – and tips and tricks for using them. If you want to skip most of my story and go straight to the supplement information, start watching at 9:08 minutes. For those of you who have my book Listen To Your Gut – this video serves as a nice summary that will help you…

I immediately reached out to her and asked if she would share her story with our Listen to Your Gut community, and she was kind enough to do so. Here’s what she had to say: “I love the nanominerals because they gave me a shortcut to my healing. I suffered from an intestinal infection that caused irritable bowel syndrome for a year, went to the bathroom 5-15 times a day, and hadn’t…

It is difficult for the body to get used to a completely new food source (liquid, pre-digested). Therefore, expect an adjustment period when starting an elemental diet. At the same time, you need to pay attention to signs of intolerance.

It takes him about 30 seconds between drinking the shake and going to the bathroom. I read that you can feel…
