Looking for a natural product for IBS. Would Digest Plus by Genestra help?
Q. My husband has been Suffering for years with IBS. A friend has suggested that he try "Digest Plus" by Genestra. Do you agree with this or do you have another suggestion? General Practitioners seem to want to use "drugs" to ease the symptoms, but we are willing to try something more natural.

A.
I am confident his IBS can be improved or reversed as I have seen with many sufferers. Digest Plus is a good supplement to help with IBS. However, the most important place to begin is by changing over his bacterial balance in his gut to more friendly helpful bacteria versus the antagonistic ones which currently populate his gut.
  • HMF Intensive Probiotics: Take this for at least 20-30 days, 1 capsule with each meal totaling 3 capsules daily. After this period, progress to a less potent version called HMF Forte or Super Powder.
    The other critically important initial supplement is Omega-3 fatty acids, taken in the form of Super EFA Liquid Plus by Genestra. These essential fatty acids will bring down the inflammation in his gut, and allow it to repair.
  • Super EFA Liquid Plus, by Genestra: Take 1 TBS daily off a spoon or mixed into a smoothie.
    It is possible he may need some additional support in the form of plant antimicrobials, amino acids and/or enzymes. Consult back with me in 1 month to help you determine the next phase of his treatment plan. Also he should be limiting his sugar, gluten (found in bread, pasta, wheat products, etc), dairy, and soy. Focus on whole foods such as naturally raised anti-biotic free meat, poultry, eggs, butter, nuts, vegetables, squash, brown/wild rice, low sugar fruits, olive oil, some legumes, etc.
