Three weeks ago I spent three days in the hospital for Diverticulitis. After two days of
I. V. antibiotics and a day of observation I was discharged with a 10 day supply of an oral antibiotic. Near the end of the oral antibiotics I was in total misery with 12 trips a day to the bathroom. I called the doctor and they wanted to prescribe more medication. I thought to myself more medication no way.
I found your website and tried your Great Taste No Pain plan. Within 2 days of starting your plan I felt 80% better. After a full week of your plan I am at 100%. Why the doctors don't tell you this information to make you feel better is beyond me. I am forever grateful for your advice and please keep the information coming for better health.
Thank you very much,
Mark McElroy
Sherry,
I was suffering with diverticulosis or diverticulitis for several years. I loved peanut butter sandwiches and the doctors told me that I could never have them. Since I've been on your Great Taste No Pain plan I've not had another attack. It's been over a year since the last time I went to the doctor for any kind of stomach problems. Mixing the foods correctly has made a huge difference.
Needless to say that I have more energy and sleep better through the night.
Thank you for dedicating your life to better ours.
May God continue to bless you in your journey of helping others to a pain free life.
Hugs,

Hi Sherry,
Yes, I tried your Great Taste No Pain plan and I have had excellent results. Before I tried your plan I was on Protonix, Zantac and Carafate prescribed medicine and I was still suffering really bad with Gerd and Diverticulitis to the point where the medicine does not seem to be helping much anymore. I was always in pain and really sick after I ate no matter what I ate and drank to the point where I was afraid to eat or drink anything even though I was doing what my doctor told me to do.
My stomach and my colon always seems to be inflamed from the Gerd and Diverticulitis and the pain just does not want to go away. I tried your 4 day Pain-Free Plan and the pain stopped. I am waiting for the Guide Books I ordered from you so I can have more of a variety in my meals, especially the one for eating out because I eat out a lot.
Thank you so much for finding a solution to these 2 diseases. I am so grateful.

Hi Sherry,
I just had to write and tell you that after my latest bout with Diverticulitis. I sent for your Great Taste No Pain plan. I admit I was very skeptical because it was so easy, but by the fourth day, I could not believe that I was truly pain free and not the least bit uncomfortable as I usually am.
I am so thank you from the bottom of my heart...I tell everyone about it.

I am pain free, bloat free, acid free, nausea free and constipation free when I follow the Great Taste No Pain Food Combining plan.
This would be hard for me to believe if I hadn't of experienced it for myself. I have had IBS since I was 16yrs and I had gallstones at 16. I have had acid reflux off and on since I was 30. I was diagnosed with diverticulitis twice in 2009. I didn't even know I had diverticulosis. A couple months ago began having almost constant extreme bloating, acid reflux, upper left abdominal pain and nausea. Doctor's said that is could be IBS or that it could be peptic ulcer. They prescribed acid medicine and colon spasm medicine and scheduled me to have colonoscopy and endoscopy.
I ran onto the Great Taste No Pain website the day of my doctor visit and thought that anything is better than taking more pills. I didn't really think it could make a difference, but I tried it and I am here to say when I follow the plan my digestive system is fine and symptom free. If I deviate from it (for me right now it only takes one deviation) here we go again, the pain, bloating, nausea, indigestion are all right back.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge with those of us who need it so desperately.

Dear Sherry,
My name is Joan and I have suffered from stomach issues since I was in about 10th grade. I literally passed out in the guidance office while in school, from the pain I had. My father took me to the doctor right away. I truly don't remember what we were told but whatever it was it never made a difference. I am now 52 years old, with a 20 year old daughter that suffers from constipation often.
I am so pleased to have found you and can honestly say that the pains are pretty much gone, and I love my little text messages from my daughter saying "I pooped"! If I miss combine, wow, what an eye opener. About two years ago I had a colon check and of course they said I had diverticulitis and I was told that I had to go on medication and to stay away from raw vegetables. I said thanks for your time and left. I wasn't going on any thing and intuitively felt I probably wasn't eating enough raw vegetables.
Thank you for all you have learned in your life experiences so that you could inform all of us out there.
Sincerely,
Joan Camp
Hi Sherry,
I just wanted to thank you for your perseverance in the natural health field. Being an environmental engineer and dealing with health and safety issues for my company I read everyday the effects of many chemicals on the body and so as a result I’m very into looking at natural solutions for health. Just as you’ve stated the medical profession is just too quick to write a scrip for whatever ails you rather than looking at the root cause of the problem. It took time but my doctor knows me and gives me leave to find natural solutions to deal with any health issue. I will definitely be sharing your program with her and my gastro doc.
I was diagnosed with diverticulitis in 2003. Like you I’ve always tried to eat a well “balanced” diet that consisted of fresh fruit, veggies and very limited processed food and junk food. To spite what I thought were my best efforts to eat health and exercise regularly I found myself this year with more and more bouts of diverticulitis. I had a severe attack in April and the doctors of course wanted to put me on antibiotics but I just couldn’t take them so I’ve been suffering with a “bland” diet and constant pain. The attacks have persisted and when I had a recent CT scan my doctor was recommending surgery. When I started to research alternatives to having to have such a drastic surgery I found your website and I’m so thankful to God that I did. I’ve been on your Great Taste No Pain program for a week now and the pain is completely gone. The severe bloating and cramps disappeared in one day and the severe abdominal pain was gone in about 36 hours. I can’t remember the last time I wasn’t in pain and as a bonus I’ve also lost 5 pounds. I doesn’t get any better than that.
The extra benefit of your program as well is that I am passionate about food and your cookbook is just simply fabulous. We’ve tried several recipes and have not been disappointed. Even my husband who is not strictly following your plan is feeling better and has far less problems with his stomach.
I know several people that are suffering with digestive problems and I have shared my success story with them and have encouraged them to visit your website and to purchase your system. It was definitely some of the best money I’ve ever spent.
Thanks to you and your program I feel like I have my life back.

Sherry,
A few months ago my increasing bouts with acid reflux became chronic. My research on reflux brought me to the conclusion that this condition definitely is a result of the acid/alkaline state of the body. I started monitoring my PH balance and discovered the climate of my body was acidic most of the time!
I also learned about other illnesses and conditions that are affected by the body's PH balance. In the last 1 1/2 years, I have been diagnosed with asthma, diverticulitis and battled several urinary track infections. My osteoarthritis has also worsened. The sad part is...I'm only 57! I have been an advocate for healthy eating and a healthy lifestyle my entire adult life. It has been discouraging to battle so many health problems after a lifetime of making healthy choices.
I've taken probiotics for a number of years. Through my research, I repeatedly came across articles on the benefits and how important it is to supplement with probiotics. I began a journey of trying numerous supplements, hoping to bring a healthy balance to my PH. And, I decided to investigate the probiotics on the market. Sure enough, I found out that not all probiotics live up to their claims.
I actually stumbled across your website while researching. Your info on the acid/alkaline balance caught my eye. I am familiar with food combining, but have never considered implementing the food combo rules into my diet. Food combining, in my opinion, is overwhelming at first glance. However, I had reached the point of feeling desperate with my worsening reflux condition. I ordered your Great Taste No Pain plan and also ordered your Probiotics.
I was pleased to find the Great Taste No Pain system was not overwhelming as I anticipated. At first, however, I was dragging my feet instead of jumping in wholeheartedly with the system. I started out each day following the guidelines, but wasn't sticking to it throughout the rest of the day. When I increased the probiotics to 2 capsules a day, it occurred to me that the intensity of my reflux symptoms had lessened. I was excited! It was the fuel needed to feed my fire...I am now implementing the food combining rules more consistently and I AM GETTING BETTER!! It amazes me how something as simple as a food combination can wreak havoc within the digestive system. I now have hope that my other conditions will also improve.
I'm wondering what my overall health will look like in a couple of months...you may receive another success story from me!

Hi Sherry,
This is day 23 for me on your Great Taste No Pain plan. From the very first day I had an amazing result from following your plan. I had suffered from acid reflux, GERDS, and finally diverticulitis diagnosed by my family doctor. I had gotten to the place where I did not enjoy eating out of fear of an unpleasant reaction, bloating, reflux, pain and often no sound sleep at night. (Actually I was eating what I thought was a very healthy diet.) I took 2 different medications for over 2 years, both which relieved the symptoms for awhile, then they would return.
I don't think I expected such amazing healing so quickly but from reading all the stories on your website when I decided to try the plan. I now have no symptoms of digestive distress and sleep well at night. I have adopted this plan as a lifestyle change for me. I am so thankful for receiving the information about your program. (An added benefit is a flatter tummy!) I am spreading the word.
I enjoy your daily newsletters.
Thank you

Dear Cherry,
My name is Gonzalo, 78 years old enjoying more or less a GOOD health but about 3 weeks ago I start feeling a mild pain on my left side of my stomach. Two days went by and now the mild pain became "ACUTE' pain. I went to the doctor who ordered a TScan on my abdomen and the report stated that I had "Extensive diverticulosis with a small focus of Acute diverticulitis of the sigmoid colon" An antibiotic was prescribed which one hour later the pain was minor.
I went on line to find out information on such Diverticulitis and BINGO! Your
Web page came up. I kept reading and reading your story. I do not have the right words how to say THANKS to you for your wonderful reports/stories and advice. Today, I'm feeling great again!
Once again Thanks so much for your help advice and your Great Taste No Pain plan to follow.
