Self Healing Colitis & Crohn's 4th edition: The Complete Wholistic Guide to Healing the Gut & Staying Well

Excellent for anyone with digestive problems or anyone trying to live a healthier lifestyle. This book is so informative and useful and easy to use. It helped me with my ibd enormously.

Good book and have started the healing diet. Easy to understand and very interesting reading. Good to find an alternative to medicine as the doctors really don't seem to understand stomach problems.

good book, good long read, helpful in some ways, though do your research and don't just stick by what one man says, do what is right for you. I agree with some things the author shared but disagree with others.

In my opinion this is the only book on Crohn's & Colitis you should read if you want to rid yourself of all symptoms for life. I have bought this book for several friends who suffer from one or the other. Not all of them were convinced and bothered to change their diets but those that did had great success. The author has helped literally thousandss of people become IBD free. If you don't want to or aren't willing to drastically change your diet, that is not the the fault of the author. But for most ipeople nflicted by IBDs, it is worth the big change, to be free of the pain and suffering once and for all.

Satifactory

This was a hard read for me but I am glad I stuck with it. Transitioning to vegan mainly raw diet is definitely helping me with my ulcerative colitis. I am only a month into my new healthy eating and I can see massive difference. It is not easy by any means and I do have the odd cheat day. I am just saw happy I came across this book.

One of the best if not the best books on healing colitis and crohn's disease. After curing himself many years ago, Dr Klein has gone on and assisted thousand of other suffers, to heal themselves naturally. I never hesitate to recommend this book to any one who is struggling with this disease, and believe me there seams to be more and more people suffering due to un-natural modern nutrition.

A really well written book with very practical reasons why our bodies our suited to some types of food and not others.

It's very helpful

This book has helped me immensely. We are all different and react differently to a variety of foods. If you suffer form Chrones or Colitis, you know what I mean. I have UC and UP, and it’s been a long journey. I was on SCD For over a year, it helped. Then I started even stricter by combining SCD and FODMAP, with the SCD as the main. It got pretty tough, and only helped.The real change came for me with animal products. I was a meat eater. Lots and lots of meat.At first, switching to an all vegan diet was incredibly tough for me. And a complete 180, I actually got worse for a few weeks. But then I noticed things were changing, for the better. Still was a tough transition.After several weeks, I started adding in a bit of chicken now and then. No other animal products. None. Not much chicken either, just a little once or maybe twice a week. Eventually as I learn more about how to prepare a vegan diet, I will transition away from that too. And, I’m ok with it. I’m not cured, as many will say, but this did change everything. It’s only been about 2 months for me, but what a difference.Anyway, if your going to try it, get a good juicer right away. The juice part of it to me is great!So far it’s a huge help to me. The biggest thing for me, was consuming enough calories. I just dove into this, along with other vegan diets, such as the Engine Two diet. But diving in, was tough to do after a few weeks, because I just didn’t have the knowledge to eat a complete balanced diet, or how much, or when, etc etc etc. Diving in is great, a transition is also great. Ll depends on your system, your needs, and your knowledge base.I highly recommend this as part of your C&C remedy.Good luck.

Jeder, der auf der Suche nach einer echten Lösung zur dauerhaften Heilung von Morbus Crohn und Colitis (sowie den meisten anderen "Krankheiten") ist, sollte hier zugreifen und sich auf all die zunächst befremdlich erscheinenden Ratschläge und Informationen einlassen, es zumindest einmal auf sich wirken lassen.Anders als die Schulmedizin oder allgemein die meisten Internisten behaupten, dass die Ernährung keine große Rolle spielt, stützt sich Dr. Dave Klein eben gerade auf eine Ernährungsumstellung als Eigeninitiative zur Heilung und wichtigen Bestandteil eines gesunden Lebens.Dabei hat der Autor selbst 8 qualvolle Jahre hinter sich, dann im letzten Moment mit drohendem chirurgischen Eingriff radikal die Kurve gedreht, seit jeher zahlreiche Betroffene bei der Helling unterstützt und lebt nun seit über 30 Jahren frei von sämtlichen Symptomen.Ich selbst bin seit 2 Jahren frei von Entzündungen und Schmerzen.Kernaussage und Zitat des Autors: "Um CED vollständig zu heilen und sich auf den Weg zu einer dauerhaften CED-freien pulsierenden Gesundheit zu begeben, müssen Sie sich vollständig entgiften. Sie können dies tun, während Sie Ihren Körper mit dem Frucht-basierten veganen Heilungsplan versorgen.Der Körper wird nicht ganz gesund werden, wenn man nicht mit ihm kooperiert und sich vollständig "ausputzt". Wenn Sie immer noch Giftstoffe beherbergen und einige giftige, unverdauliche Nahrungsmittel essen, werden Sie für den Rest Ihres Lebens krank sein."Noch zwei Gedanken: Ziel der modernen Medizin ist die Behandlung von Symptomen, nicht aber die Erzeugung von Gesundheit. Eine Dosis des Immunsuppressivum Remicade kostet 2500€ aufwärts, das Buch ist mit seinen 20€ meiner Erfahrung nach mehr wert.Leider ist das Werk bisher nur in englischer Fassung erschienen, auf der Homepage des Autors gibt es auch eine Kurzfassung auf Deutsch, mit der ich allerdings keine Erfahrung habe.Ich kann das Buch nur von ganzem Herzen empfehlen!

I have suffered from colitis and crohns for 7 years. THIS BOOK changed my life in 7 DAYS! I also suffer from celiac, and will not belabor the pain, physical and emotional struggles of having these 3 diseases. I have refused treatment w/ modern prescriptions and went the so-called "natural" route for 5 years. I only became moderately better in beginning, only to experience flareups that became progressively worse. I had spent every dime I had on traditional doctors, natural doctors, vitamins, remedies, to no avail. In desperation I found this book. Having already been vegetarian for 4 yrs and vegan for 8 mos, the transition was not so hard, except for giving up the decaf coffee and salt. As soon as I let go of these things, on day 7, my world turned around! My bowels were normal after 7 years of dysfunction! I replaced my coffee with warm, pure water in the morning. I replaced my grapefruit or gluten free toast with ripe bananas and date smoothies for breakfast and enjoy the lunch and dinner guidelines for the healing phase. I am in DAY 8, after being sick for 2,555 days, not one day without pain and problems, and I am eating without pain, and can feel my body detoxing all the garbage I put in it, hoping to fix my body. Dr. Klein's analysis is brilliant and true. MY BODY HAS BEEN TRYING TO FIX MY BODY all along! I just had to stop interrupting it. I know several people suffering w/ C&C and am urging them to get off the Big Pharm merry-go-round that just keeps them sicker, promotes disease, and makes a lot of people rich in the process. The anti-inflammatories don't work. Eating a diet of meat, scrambled eggs, toast and mashed potatoes certainly won't work. Please, please, please, if you are sick with an inflammatory bowel condition, or just want vital health to be yours, buy this book! It has literally changed my life in a short time. I know because of years of damage from celiac and C&C, I have a way to go and the cravings for the offending foods are tough sometimes, but I know after a few days this is a healthier way to live. Dense, water rich, ripe foods, raw, tasty, nourishing. I never believed I could give up salt, but after a day or two, I actually started tasting the food. Beyond anything else, I, like many C&C sufferers reached the point where I would do anything to get better. I am grateful for this book and carry it with me every day so I can re-read the foods and plan for the healing stage I am in. I can't wait until I am in post-healing! Thank you Dr. Klein for your revolutionary work in this area.

It has lots of information to heal the gut 👌👌
