Bye bye IBS ! The Natural Irritable Bowel Syndrome Cure Paperback – April 3, 2013

This book really gets it! The author writes in an open, conversational style and he treats the reader with respect and is aware they you know your body best. The way he discusses the discomfort and embarrassment of irritable bowel syndrome lets you know he's suffered from it, too. He clearly explains the causes in layman's terms. The book gives specific advice for combating IBS through diet and treatments you can do at home. I especially liked the chapter about foods to avoid. It was not just a list, it explained why certain foods aggravate IBS. There's also a chapter about what you should eat and why. Combined, they teach you how to make balanced eating decisions. Not at all a dry, sterile book. You would not think a book about IBS would be enjoyable to read, but this one is.

10 reasons why this got 1 star10. This is too SHORT to be marketed as a book9. This publication is only about 20 pages, a thick pamphlet8. The title is very misleading7. IBS is a blanket term used to cover Gastro-intestinal illness & diseases6. There is not enough known information on causes of IBS (even in the Medical community)5. Dietary changes only help with pain not the actual illness4. The herbal supplements suggested in this book are either laxatives or clay3. IBD (including Crohn's & Colitis) is marked by inflammation in the intestines, cause unknown2. Medication is required to keep IBS in check or at bay1. There is NO CURE FOR IBSYou would do better to talk with your GI specialist, joining an IBS support group or visiting the CCFA website. I want the 10 minutes of my life back that it took me to read this nonsense.

This book helped me start feeling well. The nutrition guidelines started me going. Though I am still working on my recovery, this was very helpful.

Informational,direct and succinct. Easy to read and understand , gives solid reasoning for making major changes to your diet. Did not give a lot of ideas for foods and meals but, enough to get you started.

This book is a treasure trove of great information. I can’t wait to put into practice many of the tips provided.

Good book; short though.

Not recommended to purchase. Not for Indian people.He is telling about foreign culture. Go to good ayurvedic doctor near u

Pretty good but not as good as I was hoping for as it doesnt have the very latest info. in it.
