It is estimated that at least 25% of American's suffer with IBS to varying degrees. It will impair your quality of life - interfere and impair your performance in the workplace - sports and other activities - it can lead to many un-necessary tests and surgeries - even death due to medication and/or intervention. It can cause psychiatric problems and family disruption. Many costs are associated with IBS - both direct and indirectly. It effects people physically - mentally and emotionally.
If you are suffering with IBS - Chron's or any other painful intestinal disorder, I'm sure you've said to yourself and others, more than once . . . "Surely there is a cure for this!"
You're right! But what you won't find is a prescription drug that will bring a cure. The prescription medicines will merely bring some of the worst symptoms down to a more manageable degree. But can they cure or heal?
The natural cure for most chronic conditions to put it simply . . . is within your own body
If you give yourself the RIGHT nutrition and read the Basic Keys to healthy living, and adopt a healthy lifestyle - many of your "Conditions" may gradually diminish. Your immune system will become regulated and your systems balanced.
The diagnosis of IBS, is usually given in cases with abdominal discomfort and symptoms such as:
Gas
Bloating
Mucus in the stool
Constipation OR Diarrhea
You can feel like you need to have a bowel movement, even though you just had one
Abdominal pain and cramping that is relieved after having a bowel movement
After examination of a patient and finding mild or no intestinal abnormalities, the diagnosis of IBS is given.
The cause of Chron's Disease is unknown.
"Update" -- We have been saying for many years that the main underlying cause of Chron's and other bowel disorders and many illnesses is damaging inflammation . Finally, the mainstream medical 'powers that be' have publicly announced that Chrons may be caused by inflammation ! Better late than never.
An activation of your immune system in your digestive system seems to be evident in cases of "Irritable Bowel Disorders".
Normally, your immune system cells and proteins will help to defend your body against harmful viruses - bacteria - fungi - yeast and other nasty invaders. But when your immune system becomes activated - inflammation will follow in the tissues where the activation occurs. Thus - the activation of your immune system within your digestive tract will cause unwanted inflammation - pain and mal-absorbption of nutrients will follow.
In most people - the immune system is activated when their body is exposed to harmful substances. In the people diagnosed with IBD - "Irritable Bowel Disorders" such as IBS and Chron's- their immune systems are chronically activated without doctor's knowing what the cause may be.
A diagnosis of:
IBS
Pancreatitis
Chrohn's disease
Digestive disorders
Gall Bladder disease.....etc.
Could possibly be the result of and a combination of : Yeast / Candida - Fungus - and Celiac Disease.
Celiac disease , in this case is aggravated and intensified by the Yeast / Candida, Fungus infection connection and micro form overgrowth and the toxic by-products, of these infections.
Candida albicans overgrowth can cause a Yeast Infection and fungal infection to start damage and inflammation in your digestive system.
It can and will spread to all parts of your body if left unchecked. It is an invasive parasite that attacks your intestines and can eventually become a permanent resident of your internal organs.
This rampant infection causes many many health problems - chronic health conditions - discomfort and pain- and many negative symptoms for millions of people and can go un-diagnosed year after year.
Un-diagnosed and untreated you become weaker and your immune system begins to falter. This may cause you to become more sedentary, and as the yeast in your system demands to be fed, you will crave sugar and starchy foods to meet this demand.
Since you are always feeling "Peckish" (craving) "comfort foods" breads, rolls, pastas, cakes, cookies, pies, ice cream , etc. to feed the yeast. It will set up a vicious cycle.
The infection can become so bad that it can finally erupt on the outside of your skin. This is sometimes diagnosed as excema - Click on the link to read a very short version of my son's story and how he found the natural cure for this and more. Read the Basic Keys, (see # 10.) This is what he was diagnosed with and is now completely cured, by following the simple Healthy living guide and Yes List of good healthy food and No List of unhealthy foods.
The YEAST - CANDIDA - FUNGUS CONNECTION TO MOST ALL DIGESTIVE DISORDERS!
Yeast - Candida - Fungus Infection can be a major contributing factor in MANY health problems:
IBS
Constipation
Ulcers
Colitis
Bloating
Colon disorders
Crohn's disease
The Cancer Connection . . .?
*"A fungus infection – that of the Candida species – could supply the explanation for why a tumor occurs, and it is in this direction that research should move in the attempt to solve the problem of cancer once and for all."
A protein found in the cell walls of Candida is very similar to Gluten. As a result of this similarity, your immune system may confuse Gluten found in common grains most often used, such as Wheat - Rye and Barley - with the protein in the cell wall of Candida. This tricks your immune system to begin a defense (inflammatory response) against the Gluten. This will damage your small intestine to an even greater extent.
The yeast cells in your system are not the only culprits. The yeast by-products contain more than 75 known toxic substances. These toxins contaminate everything they come in contact with, including your brain and nervous system.
One of the major Yeast by-products is (Ethanol), which can destroy enzymes needed for cell building. It also causes a release of free radicals which in turn speed up cell aging and the overall aging process.
This yeast infection in your system will progress (if it remains unchecked), into a fungal form. The fungus has a root system that will, after a period of time, penetrate your intestinal wall. Once it penetrates the intestinal wall, there are no barriers to prevent it from traveling throughout your body. This will allow toxins and foreign substances to contaminate your entire system!
At this point you may,(if you have not already) begin to have more problems . . . They may seem unrelated to your digestive system, such as:
Sore joints
Sore muscles
Sinus problems
Skin problems
Fatigue
Chest pain
Swollen lymph glands
Facial pain
Rib pain
Fuzzy thinking
Concentration problems
Depression/Lethargy
Vision can be affected ....
You can achieve a Natural Cure for all of these problems.
Many people,(including myself awhile ago), cancer patients, senior citizens, people with immune system disorders and diagnosed with AIDS - are wasting away. Some may retain too much weight and others may lose too much weight. It depends on the individual. Some people can develop a distended abdomen and yet not gain weight in their arms and legs. Everyone is different.
But with the Yeast - Candida - Fungal infection,you cannot absorb the nutrients you put into your body. Even if you are eating the most nutritious foods, and using the highest quality supplements.
This is what happens to so many people and it is very hard to understand - you constantly ask yourself WHY AM I NOT HEALTHY? It's a case of 'first things first'. Destroy the yeast and fungus - then you can begin the healing process. Gradually, you will be able to absorb more nutrients from your food and supplements again.
Reverse the Vicious Cycle !
The Natural Approach for a Natural Cure may begin with your Diet and Yeast destroying supplements
To start your wellness program, this ( potentially ) system - wide infection must be taken care of.
We drink ORGANIC Apple Cider Vinegar, raw un-pasteurized, with the Mother. We prefer "Bragg's" - 1 - 2 Tbs. (or more if you can) 3 to 4 times a day. We drink this in pure water with organic lemon juice before each meal. This has helped with eliminating "acid reflux". Which is not a disease - actually a deficit of adequate digestive enzymes and stomach acid are partly to blame.
We also eat Goat Yogurt : 2 - 3 heaping Tablespoons 3 - 4 times a day. This can help establish the colonies of "good healthy bacteria" and help to cut down on the candida/yeast levels.
We use a good product with Soil based organisms to give us a broad-spectrum of intestinal support from many strains of beneficial micro-organisms. It can help you with your nutrient absorption with digestive enzymes. It can also promotes regular bowel function and immune system health.
Activated Charcoal - has been used in natural healing for centuries -- as an antidote for poisons and toxins as well as a treatment for stomach upset, acid indigestion and gas. It has an amazing ability to attract and absorb other substances to it's surfaces and hold them. It absorbs thousands upon thousands of times it's own weight in heavy metals, poisons, toxins and chemicals. One teaspoon of Activated Charcoal has a surface area of more than 10,000 sq.ft.

Inulation - Is another powerful ally in your fight against yeast! Inulin is a natural, Kosher, functional food ingredient extracted from the root of a common vegetable, the chicory plant, Cichorium intybus L. Inulin, is a natural fructooligosaccharide. In simple terms, it may feed good bacteria helping them expand and help crowd out the bad bacteria. Inlulation combined with Threelac can deliver a powerful "One-Two" punch!
I read an article recently, about a study done by Larysa Hun, M.D. on one of the main ingredients of ThreeLac and FiveLac - Bacillus coagulans -
· BACILLUS COAGULANS HELPS IBS ·
"A strain of the probiotic bacteria Bacillus coagulans effectively relieves abdominal pain and bloating in people with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)."
This was the outcome of an eight-week study involving 44 subjects reported in the March issue of the publication (Postgraduate Medicine).
Those patients taking the probiotic reported statistically significant reductions in abdominal pain and bloating at each of the weekly measurements; those given the placebo saw no improvement in bloating while reporting pain reduction in just two of the eight measurements.
Study author Larysa Hun, M.D., said: "This study helps confirm that Bacillus coagulans is effective in IBS."

The natural digestive enzymes you need can be found in raw vegetables and fruit. If you are eating processed foods - canned foods - microwave ready foods, etc.you could very easily end up with a digestive enzyme deficiency. When this happens, you will not be able to use the nutrients you are ingesting and may also contributes to what many refer to as "Leaky Gut Syndrome". With the accompanying Bloating - Gas - Indigestion - Constipation or Diarrhea - and varying levels of intestinal inflammation. If you take a Pancreatic Enzyme with your meals - it may help with proper digestion of your foods.
It is also believed that the serotonin levels in your digestive system are depleted, thus contributing to many of your IBS symptoms.There are more serotonin receptors in your intestines, than in your brain. To help increase your important serotonin levels, you can try a product called 5 HPT - 5-hydroxytryptophan.It is the amino acid responsible for making Serotonin.
Peppermint Oil - can help to ease stomach upset, cramps, gas and nausea. It helps soothe occasional disruptions in your bowel.

Your Rebounder will be very helpful. The Rebounder can reduce your abdominal bloating after just a few sessions. You will be able to see a marked difference. The "Health Bounce" is all you need to do to see an improvement in many areas. Of course later, when you are feeling much, much better you can use your Rebounder for aerobic exercise if you wish. It's an intensive workout that will be good for your whole system and easy on the joints.
The action of the Health Bounce , will help drain the lymphatic system, which will, in turn, help relieve bloating and pain. Your lymph system is not contained in your armpit, neck and groin area exclusively, as so many people tend to think. But rather throughout your entire body including your stomach and intestinal area. In using the "Rebounder" , you can effectively begin to drain the backed up or clogged lymph nodes located throughout your body and they can begin to do their job more effectively and efficiently. Thus reducing the "achy all over" sluggish feeling and reduce the build up of fluids in your tissues, thus lowering your pain.

Strengthen your whole body
Protect joints from wear and tear
Improve Lymphatic circulation
Circulate oxygen to all the tissues
Help with digestion and elimination
