Restore your digestion and gut health!

Lipski's book DIGESTIVE WELLNESS, explains digestion exceptionally well for the lay person, and gives concrete, do-able directions for restoring digestive function for a host of gut problems. Maybe it ties it all together for me because I've already read a lot on the subject of digestion, but it does seem like this particular book really empowers the individual in restoring their own optimal gut function no matter what the originating cause.

If you were only going to get one book on the subject of digestion, DIGESTIVE WELLNESS should be the book. It covers both the specific 'diagnosed' gut issues as well as the non-specific. It gives the conventional tests as well as the 'functional medicine' tests that are often more informative. It suggests specific diet change recommendations and reasonable short-term supplement changes that aid healing for specific problems. My FNP saw my copy and will be ordering her own copy ASAP - (and yes, she has gut issues, too, that haven't been resolved by modern medicine).

Other very useful books on digestion are:&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Why-Stomach-Acid-is-Good-for-You-Natural-Relief-from-Heartburn-Indigestion-Reflux-and-GERD/dp/0871319314/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Why Stomach Acid is Good for You: Natural Relief from Heartburn, Indigestion, Reflux and GERD</a>&nbsp;by Jonathan Wright, MD,&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Healthy-Digestion-the-Natural-Way-Preventing-and-Healing-Heartburn-Constipation-Gas-Diarrhea-Inflammatory-Bowel-and-Gallbladder-Diseases-Ulcers-Irritable-Bowel-Syndrome-and-More/dp/0471349623/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Healthy Digestion the Natural Way: Preventing and Healing Heartburn, Constipation, Gas, Diarrhea, Inflammatory Bowel and Gallbladder Diseases, Ulcers, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, and More</a>&nbsp;by D.

Each of these other books have excellent features, But if I could only buy one book, I'd start with Lipski's DIGESTIVE WELLNESS.

The best and most informative book out there on leaky gut! I had no idea that my symptoms old and new were all linked together and derived from an unhealthy gut. After reading I also realized my sicknesses weren't a sudden issue. It was years and years of accumulation of things Ive had done to my body (amalgam fillings) injested (antibiotics, vaccines, GMO foods etc) or even placed on my body (proactiv, lotions with chemicals etc) getting layered on top of each other bringing me to where I'm now... A very unhealthy gut.  I've been on the leaky gut protocol for the last month and I feel amazing. Eat Dirt has been a game changer for me in so many ways! I'm excited to support my body in detoxing, healing and rejuvenating itself.  Thank you so much for all your hard work in bringing this issue into the limelight as I feel so many others will benefit from this read and finally get the answers they have seeked for so long.

This tea really tastes great.  I love when I find Organic products that still have the great taste as other brands which is hard to find!  It is great with relieving digestion problems.  My son always struggles with digestive problems and I gave him this tea as well and he said his belly felt better after drinking it.  I drink a cup each morning hoping to keep my stomach feeling it's best while relieving constipation and promoting regularity.  I received this item at a free/discounted rate until exchange for my honest unbiased opinions.  All opinions expressed are of my own.

This stuff is awesome for digestive issues.  I take a swig before I eat and I have had very little acid reflux problems.  I can't believe that something THIS simple actually helped me so much.  Way more than any medication!!!

This is delicious! I have tried vanilla nut as well. Totally feeds the gut flora and help keep digestion healthy and bowel movements regular. This pack is a very affordable option.

This book is more than a diet book.  It is also a cookbook, a workout book, and a problem solving book for common digestive and stomach problems people suffer from.  Science is finding more and more that over all good health begins with a healthy gut.  This book guides you in working toward that.  I really like the fact that it isn't just about being slim but being healthy too.
Two chapters share about food that can cause stomach issues and those that help you have a well tummy and a slim one too. I like the 21 day meal plan, because I have a strategy lined out for almost a month, therefore I am less likely to fail and just eat what is available.  I also liked the recipes.  They are tasty and easy to make with all the ingredients available at your local grocery store. There were lots of vegetables included in the ingredients, an area I am severely lacking in right now. I enjoyed the pages showing individuals that have tried the diet and their experiences. It was very encouraging!  The book high quality material and is user friendly.  Another great book from Ms. Vaccariello!

I've  completed this book about a week ago and found it quite enlightening.  I have suffered from IBS/constipation/diarrhea for years and have always been told to "get more fiber in your life", even to the point of taking fiber pills.  This book in a very no-nonsense, scientific way shows how this has been very detrimental to my system and  clarifies ways to correct the condition. You don't have to live with IBS or any of these other symptoms.  I've followed his recommendations some of which include stopping fiber pills, switching to a low fiber diet, taking probiotics (and am ordering his regimen), eating one meal of carbs and another of protein.  Overall, even after a week, I'm feeling much better and even sleeping better. His thinking is revolutionary, but only because we have been "schooled" for years on fiber being the "cure" for everything from constipation to colon cancer. We need to change our thinking and this book is an excellent guide in helping us do so.

Book arrived earlier then expected. I have just been diagnosed with Colitis but have been suffering with intestinal issues since my 20's, so 30 some years now. I am slowly transitioning over to this way of eating. So far I have already seen amazing results. No more abdominal discomfort and getting a little more control over how often I need to visit the bathroom. All of the recipes I have tried so far have been very good. Yes it does take a bit of time to prepare and cook everything but overall the health benefits make it worth the effort. People are getting too used to an instant society where everything has to be set before them right now. People should get back to home cooked, healthy meals instead of all of this fast-food and processed items with little nutritional value. My doctor wanted me to start on prescription medication that was going to cost me 953.00 p/mth. I said I'd try diet change first and see if my issues improve or not, so far they have. I'm currently not on any prescription medications and don't want to get started now, especially at those prices! I bought this book on the recommendation of one of my niece's, a sister and my Dad. They all swear by this diet and my Dad has been able to get off most of his medications as well. I was never much into cooking but now I'm kind of enjoying it. The recipes are easy to make. You would even feel comfortable serving them to guests. I like that there are also desserts in here too. I would recommend this book to others who have any sort of intestinal disorders. It will provide you with a lot of relief from your symptoms.

I was looking for something to help keep me healthy from the inside out and discovered these 'power pearl' probiotic supplements from Well State. I have been really happy with the results that Ive been noticing since starting these advanced natural probiotics about a month ago. My digestive system has definitely improved - I no longer have as much bloating and discomfort after eating, especially with milk and grain products, and I feel good knowing that i'm helping to maximize my nutrient absorption.
The biggest difference is my 'regularity' now that I'm using these! My gut feels clean and healthy, and I think my immune system is benefitting as well, because both my son and husband got sick this past week but I never did!
I did receive these probiotic supplements at a deep discount or for free in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.

I am a fairly healthy female with some digestion issues.  I had my gallbladder removed a couple of years ago and since then haven't been able to successfully eat any greens - salads were out.  When I got this book, I was curious to see if I could possibly drink them and if that would help me get those benefits. Two weeks later, I have been having a smoothie a day and I'm feeling great!  I have learned a lot about the difference between different greens as well as how the different ingredients fit together to make something so 'green' so delicious.  The book itself is a little wordy and at times repetetive.  But the information is simply put and easy to understand.  There are definitely many smoothies for all taste pallets and to keep you interested.  Enjoy!

I am a big believer in probiotics! My 6 yr. old dog had been having some digestive issues. The vet gave me a 30 day supply of this to give to her. After using for a month along with a dry food for digestive issues, she is doing better. The probiotic on its own did not clear up her trouble, but it helps and I will continue to keep my dogs on this. I highly recommend!

In my personal health, this is one of the most important books I've read. I had surgery in July 2008 to remove an ovary and the surgeon sewed my small intestine shut. This was corrected five days later and the damage to my gut was significant. This book helped me understand the impact and that I was on the right track to remedy the problem. The correlation between gut and brain is significant.

I purchased this because one of my furbabies has gastrointestinal problems and I was hoping that this would help in that area.  Her stool is constantly soft and she goes many times a day.  This food has been a help to her.  Her gastrointestinal health is not perfect but this food coupled with the Naturvet Digestive Enzymes and Probiotics have really helped her get to a 'new' normal.  Her stool is formed not up to 7 out of 10 trips to the litter box.  A definite improvement.  I also tried the Salmon and Green pea on her.  She likes them both.  I am leaving a picture of how the kibble looks for those interested.  Also if you decide to try out the enzymes on your pet, please consult your veterinarian first.

If you find my review helpful please let me know and if you have any questions or comments, feel free to post them below and I will answer them as quickly as possible.  Thank you for checking out my review.  :)

This is the real deal. Contains 1 billion CFU of Lactobacillus acidophilis and Bifidobacterium longum.

These are worth every penny. However, they may not be for everyone because they contain SOY. Other ingredients: palm oil, gelatin, vegetable glycerin, soy lecithin, pectin.

My significant other had had explosive digestive "issues" for at least a year. I prodded him to try these probiotic pearls. A day later he felt good, gut issues cleared up, gas gone, etc... He now takes 2 each day. The pearl (about the size of a pea) is designed to deliver 90% of the bacteria into the intestine with only 10% die-off rate due to stomach acids. Most other brands have a higher die-off percentage.
