HLC Probiotics, Cod Oil, and Colostrum Help IBS

Q. I now take HLC High Potency. What other supplements do you recommend for IBS? Can adults take the HLC Neonate Powder, and if so in what dose?

A. Since you are already taking the HLC High Potency, you could add the HLC Neonate for additional probiotic support because it has the B infantis strain not found in the HLC High Potency. It would be fine to take these both in their recommended dosage.

IBS can also be helped by several other products that support the intestinal walls and decrease symptoms. To add to these probiotics I would also recommend:

• GI Revive - to help soothe and support your GI, 1 teaspoon mixed with 4 oz water, twice a day. This also comes in capsules if your prefer.

• Tegricel Colostrum - 1 capsule before meals, 2 per day, to enhance general immune function and to help reduce the annoying and sometimes debilitating effects of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), including Crohn’s, Celiac and Ulcerative Colitis. It has been suggested to heal and repair damaged tissue from the use of NSAID’s.

• Cod Liver Oil by DFH - 1 TBSP a day with any meal to reduce inflammation.

• Digestzymes - these are digestive enzymes along with a little HCL to help with the digestion of your foods. Take 1 with each meal.

What can you suggest to help my depression, anxiety, & stress?

Q. I have been diagnosed with depression; I have terrible anxiety, crying spells, lack of energy, and stress. Do you have any products that can help me?

A. For anxiety, we would recommend Magnelevures by Unda , as well as Passion Flower Combination # 1 by Genestra and Lemon Balm Combination #1.

It seems that your stress might have affected your adrenal glands and thyroid, therefore you would benefit from the HTHY Thyroid Drops by Genestra and the HAD Adrenal Drops by Genestra.

Please, note that we also use biotherapeutic drainage, which is the process of detoxifying the body by opening the emunctories (routes of elimination) and then discharging the toxic accumulations.

Drainage is about processing and integrating all events, information and substances we encounter, whether physicall illness, emotional events or spiritual stimulation. With biotherapeutic drainage, we are targeting and treating the cause of your problems rather than just alleviating your symptoms.

Do you offer a Probiotic program for my 12 yo with Crohn's disease?

Q. Which probiotics do you recommend for my 12 yr old son, who has Crohn's disease?I am also reading "The Maker's Diet,"is the probiotic they recommend good? Do you have a program for Crohn's disease?

A. We are familiar with “The Makers Diet” and their recommended probiotics Primal Defense (PD). The Primal Defense is very different from the HMF Super Powder. It does not contain the researched strains of beneficial bacteria and there is some controversy in the nutrition industry as to the benefit of PD organisms. Some practitioners have warned us against using PD for people who have very compromised GI function since it could actually do some harm. Others have found PD to be quite helpful.

The strains in HMF products are not Soil Organisms (HSOs) such as the ones in PD. Instead, HMF is Human Micro Flora which have been isolated from a healthy woman and replicated in the lab. Thus, all the organisms in HMF naturally exist in the GI tract and they implant quite well because the body recognizes them as "self". The human strains in HMF have been extensively researched over the last 10 years and shown to adhere quite well.

Yes, we do have a nutritional program for Crohn's diasease. Please, visit our Crohn's disease program.

Another great supplement that your son would benefit from is the Super EFA Liquid by Genestra.
