Product Description: "This book kept me reading all night. I couldn't put it down!" -- Brad DeMeulenaere "I had my first colonic at age 26. I am now 56 and have seen a total of five colon hygienists, four within the past six years. I've been through the forest of medical doctors and many different alternative health practitioners. Much of the time, I have sensed a frustration from them. Sometimes it's a frustration that they can't figure out how to help me and sometimes it feels like a cumulative frustration from all the others they haven't been able to help. But sometimes I feel that their frustration is directed to me personally, as if they wished I would just get myself together and "feel better." Lord knows, I haven't always made the best choices for my health. When I saw Scott Webb, I felt a lack of that frustration and no hint of blame. It was evident to me that he saw the big picture and how we have been affected by our culture. Scott's message was truly one of hope which brought me a sense of relief and peace. That is definitely a place where healing can begin, when you feel no blame, just peace and hope." -- Victoria Lovett One of America's leading colonic therapists gives you the inside scoop on digestive disorders that you or a loved one might be experiencing. Learn how to: . cleanse your colon and your whole body, . reduce your risk of common diseases, . understand the deeper issues of weight loss, . beat underlying causes of depression, . improve your diet to overcome constipation, . visualize yourself well and feel better every day! Scott W. Webb dares to defy conventional wisdom about health and proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that he knows the "inside poop" about many secrets you have not heard yet -- until now!

Dietary strategies and delicious recipes that help manage inflammatory bowel disease.
Good nutrition is a top priority for people living with Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis and also for their families and friends. There is often a fear of trying new foods, as well as other concerns. Is a current diet appropriate? Can the usual foods purchased at the grocery store still be part of the daily diet?
Crohn's and Colitis Diet Guide addresses these concerns and more. The authors explain how nutrition plays a central role in the management of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and discuss the importance of maintaining general health during times of disease activity and periods of remission. They also show how a person's nutritional status affects immunity, wound-healing and other physiological processes. Reliable, well-researched dietary advice combined with 150 outstanding recipes provides a crucial resource for those managing IBD.
Although good nutrition does not cure IBD, and although -- with certain exceptions -- nutritional therapy does not always control disease flares, good nutrition is important for health maintenance, symptom management and well-being.
