IBS Gut Instinct: The Definitive Solution For Improving Gut Health - Treating Irritable Bowel Syndrome And Achieving Gut Bliss

This is a comprehensive study of the medical condition called IBS. It is supported by extensive case studies, statistical evidence and a thorough investigation into the causes, the symptoms and the possible cures for individual cases. No stone is left unturned, and after reading this book you will probably know more than your own GP on this subject, and will be able to determine the correct course of action for you.What I found fascinating was the section on How Mind-Body communication affects your IBS Symptoms. Many years ago, I studied self-hypnosis and I have been applying it to heal myself from minor and major ailments. A visit to the doctor is a very rare occasion for me, medication is not an option, even though I am well past my youth. I was never 100% sure if this was all a matter of good luck, good genes or a good dose of the imagination. This book convinced me it is a very good dose of the imagination as all of good luck, good genes, success and happiness are the byproducts of a healthy imagination.When people tell you dismissively "it's all in your mind", take this as a statement of fact as a healthy body is an extension of a healthy mind and the imag-in-ation is what enables to transform "images" in your mind into "action" and a resultant effect.I was so thrilled to have an authority on the subject of altered states of consciousness confirm to me with statistical evidence, what I have known and practiced all along as a lay person, with magical results. Do yourself a favour, read this book, understand the mind-body connection and apply it to every area of your life, not only will you enjoy a blissful gut, but a blissful life as a bonus.

I did not know that diet and medication are typically only effective for 25% of IBS sufferers. If you are one of the 25 percent that was able to successfully control your IBS symptoms, then you're actually one of the lucky ones. Almost all of the books about IBS tell you what foods to eat and what foods not to eat for IBS, they don't tell you that foods are not the source of the problem.The author gives you methods to significantly reduce or even eliminate your IBS symptoms. This book covers a wide range of topics about IBS such as what causes IBS, how is IBS diagnosed, and what the guidelines are. The author provides interesting case studies and history of people with IBS. Read the fascinating case studies of Bob, Christine, and Alisha and get some awareness into their situation dealing with IBS.You will find a lot of current strategies for treating IBS and how the mind-body communication affects your IBS symptoms. Discover specific techniques that will help you overcome your IBS symptoms. I like how Larry gives you alternative therapies to treat IBS, which you might not have thought of before. You will learn effective alternatives such as hypnosis, acupuncture, herbs, and the mind body approach, which Larry explains in detail. If you want more insight and strategies for treating IBS, this book is a great resource!

This book is a wealth of information about treating IBS without supplements, diet changes, or medication. It was interesting to know that conventional treatment of IBS is so poor, with only 50% showing slight improvement. The author delves into alternative treatments for IBS and provides a great deal of evidence to support his claims. He provides a wealth of information on the causes of IBS, how it is diagnosed, and conventional treatments. The case studies were fascinating and challenge readers to think critically and assess IBS holistically. The author proposes alternative treatments including imagery in healing and gut-directed hypnotherapy as part of the mind-body communication connection. He provides overwhelming evidence that hypnotherapy is effective in treating and reducing the symptoms of IBS. Well-researched and thorough.

I am a wellness coach and one of my clients has recently been suffering with IBS like symptoms.I bought this book as a part of my research on the subject. I have to say that I was truly impressed by the depth of the information presented and the straight forward approach of the author. Loved the fact that case studies were presented and information was well referenced. Really good book.

This is a book that I can recommend to people who suffer from irritable bowel syndrom. Why? Because it provides evidence that you can basically be your own doctor. You do not need any traditional medicine. Simply trust upon the connection between mind and body, and experience how hypnotherapy can solve your problems, something which is supported by extensive case studies and statistical evidence.

I have bought a number of books for my collections on hypnosis and psychology. Most are good enough to at least have a point of view and share that with me - so I think that it worth the read.

Not a very useful book, just a list of few case studies

The bonus track is no longer downloadable and the companion cds are no longer available on Amazon. I suggest to update the ebook with correct info.
