Yes, I have looked into her suggestions and would highly recommend that others do too.

Thanks Maddie18, Did you try any of her suggestions yourself? Did any of it help you?

I think that is where I learned about oil of oregano being good for inflammation.  It helps with pouchitis I believe.  I use it and I haven't needed antibiotics since. I also use Pepto-Bismol.  But I learned about Pepto on the jpouch group.

I've used Absorb Plus for years whenever I've needed to let my bowel rest or whenever I've needed additional nutrition in-between meals. Absorb Plus was especially beneficial pre-and post surgeries. 

Thanks Maddie18, I have started using the wild oregano oil too as I think I have had 25 years of steroids and antibiotic use for my UC. I have no doubt that my gut flora has been severely compromised. I'm not exactly sure with the protocols how I know when I have cleared the bad bacteria and replenished the good. I am definitely having some positive improvements such as more energy, less brain fog and generally feeling more well. I will keep going and reading her books because it is very interesting.

Thanks JFill 28 that is great to hear about your experience with absorb plus. I haven't used this product. I am not sure that I need it. I find it hard to know when I might have malabsobtion issues or not? I also think that it is difficult to work  out when you might need to begin these if you have a jpouch. For example she talks about being on specific diets when you have a certain number of bowel motions per day however people with jpouches have more bowel motions that people with colons. Does the higher motility of a jpouch automatically mean that we are not absorbing as much nutrition?
