Irritable Bowel Syndrome And Diverticulosis: A Self-Help Plan [Paperback]

Irritable Bowel Syndrome is an extremely common disorder that is diagnosed in 50% of cases by people who have consulted a gastroenterologist. Symptoms vary from constipation to diarrhea, stomach pains, colic, headaches, and backache. Conventional treatment such as drugs and high-fiber diets make it worse.

Key to this new edition are the following new sections:

- Aloe Vera, l-glutamine, and glucosamine supplements.

- How to bring down your cortisol levels to manage anxiety and blood sugar problems.

- How to minimize severe weight loss by bringing down allergic reactions, and thereby.

- Enabling sufferers to widen their diet.
