I am just completing my 4th day on your Great Taste No Pain plan. Although I am not 100% healed, I am about 80% there. I could have had better results if I adhered more strictly to the plan. I did have a few deviations. Overall though, the plan is working great for me and I can understand the basic concept of proper food combing.
Regarding my gut history, my symptoms and experience over the years has been almost exactly what yours has been. I am 67 years old and have had numerous gut problems over the last 45 years ranging from bleeding ulcers, hiatal hernia, acid reflux, gastritis, and difficulty swallowing due to a restrictive esophagus with scar tissue.
The classic problems you have experienced have bothered me over the years from time to time, but beginning about 2 months ago, they began occurring more frequently with a greater intensity on a daily basis, mostly right after each meal. Within 30 minute to an hour after a meal I would have severe stomach cramps followed by uncontrollable diarrhea.
I thought the best thing to do was to increase my dosage of Nexium which I have been taking for 10 years. I increased the dosage from 1 to 2 then 3 pills a day, but the pain and diarrhea continued. A visit to my gastroenterologist who I have been seeing for the last 20 years didn't seem too concerned and basically though I should just continue the Nexium. I continued to get worse and more miserable and as time progressed, my energy level began dropping and I became lethargic and even depressed.
I might add at this point that my diet all my life has been terrible, virtually no live foods such as fruit and green vegetables. I must admit that after trying numerous diets, doctor advice and prescription medications, I am very skeptical, but after reading about your Great Taste No Pain plan I felt that what you say just might work.
As I mentioned earlier, I am on my 4th day of your plan and it really does work! For the first time in over 40 years, I am virtually free of gut problems, and my energy level is much better.

Sherry,
This past August, I had a gastritis attack. These attacks are not new to me, as I have visited the emergency room four times in the past five years (to get relief from the pain). I was on my couch, in the middle of the night, praying for any kind of relief.....asking God for an answer.....anything that could put me out of my misery! I turned on my laptop for an internet search and typed in "gastritis". The first website that came up was your Great Taste No Pain. I decided to give it a try and started the program. After the third day, I was feeling SO MUCH BETTER. This is the best money I ever spent!
I was amazed that I could follow a plan that included ALL THE FOODS I LOVE! I have been following the plan since the end of August, and I have had absolutely NO PAIN!!!! I also have suffered with IBS (actually my whole life), and for the first time, ever, I don't have alternating constipation and diarrhea, gas, belching, and bloating!
This program has truly been a God send! I have even lost weight....without
Dieting or feeling deprived!!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!

Sherry,
I will have to admit that when I first read about the Great Taste No Pain plan I was very
skeptical. I have worked as Lab Director at our small hospital for almost 30 years and had never heard of anything related to food combinations.
For at least 15 years I have suffered from acid reflux and have tried numerous medications. They help but did not correct the problem. A few months ago I developed severe pain in my left side that hurt 24/7. I went to several physicians and each one added a different medication. Nothing was working. I also had an EEG and colonoscopy. I was diagnosed with severe gastritis and my medication was changed. I started to feel
some better, but if I ate anything the pain returned.
I went on the internet to see what I could do to help myself since no one else seemed to have an answer and I found you. I immediately ordered your Great Taste No Pain plan and following it. I did not experience overnight relief, but began immediately to improve. I have been your plan for four days without ANY stomach pain and my energy level is amazing. I have always been very active and did not like to take medicine so your plan was very appealing to me. I cannot tell you what a relief it is to be pain free. I thought I was following a healthy diet but with your help realized the foods I have been eating were in fact healthy but the wrong combination.
I have stopped one of my medications completely and plan to reduce the other one from two per day to one daily. I then will stop it completely and I have every confidence that I will be successful.
You are an answer to my prayer! Thank you so much for sharing your research with all of us. I am spreading the word to friends and co-workers.

Hi Sherry,
I thank God for giving me an opportunity to visit your site and be able to benefit from your Great Taste No Pain plan.
I discovered I had severe gastritis about 1 month ago. What happened was that I got home one day from work feeling a burning sensation in my stomach, dizziness and feeling faint. I kind of ignored it but the problem aggravated and I was taken to the hospital by my wife and sister. They discovered my blood pressure was low and that I had chronic gastritis.
The problem was that the Doctor did not advise us on what foods to eat. When I was discharged 4 day later we decided I would only eat porridge or rice which I thought would help ease digestion and pain. This became boring and so I went on the internet and thank God I stumbled upon your website.
I showed your site to my wife and sisters who quickly felt we should try it. I have been on your plan and taken you advice and believe me there is a great improvement. The pain is gone, I feel healthier again and my appetite I better than ever in my life. I have never felt better Sherry.
I pray that God Bless you and your family. I am putting money together so that I can purchase the books you recommended
Stay Blessed

I have had gastritis and acid reflux for 4 years with the terrible burning in my stomach and throat. I have had 2 upper GIs and 1 lower. I have been told it was H Pylori bacteria and took a round of medicine, but that did not take care of it. I have used antacids, Protonex, Maalox, gas relief tablets, tums and nexium for the last 2 years. Nothing stopped it. I usually had to vomit because the hiatal hernia I also had would not let the food go down and the acid continued with the burning.
The first day I had some relief, the next day I needed a nexium, but now I feel great and am following the directions of combining the right foods and I was so amazed today at how great I felt and how well your Great Taste No Pain plan works.

Hi Sherry,
Yes, I am a success story, too. I believe my stomach pain began with a viral infection that left me with elevated liver enzymes, blood glucose levels and elevated cholesterol and triglycerides. Although no M.D. could diagnose me, they did several ultrasounds, to rule out gall bladder problems, CT scans to rule out tumors, and finally an endoscopy where they took multiple biopsies and concluded severe gastritis (which is caused by bacteria or virus.) I only suffered with the pain for two months and felt desperate. They put me on a Prevacid that has prilosec and two very strong antibiotics that I took twice a day, with no alleviation of the pain.
I found your website when I was researching gastritis on line, ordered your Great Taste No Pain program that day.
Thank you so much, I am a believer and will promote this way of eating for everyone I know. I have two young granddaughters who already have lived with stomach problems and constipation and it’s so nice to know I can help them from future problems by sharing your information with them.

Hi Sherry,
I bought your Great Taste No Pain plan online just after coming from my doctor. I was diagnosed with gastritis. The pain is subsiding gradually and just praying and hoping that this pain will be gone forever.
Thank you for sharing your experiences and the testimonies of other sufferers. I know we will all be victorious.
God Speed!
Sincerely,

Dear Sherry,
After learning about your Great Taste No Pain program I decided to give it a try. I usually take one omeprazole tablet every morning, but decided not to take them while on your plan. It was amazing! After the first day, I did not experience pain or acid reflux! By the third day, I had so much energy! I think it is worth a try to continue eating this way.

Hi Sherry,
I have been on your Great Taste No Pain program for almost a week now. I have noticed great relief from the bloating and fluctuations. I also feel better and have more energy. I have been able to greatly reduce my dependence on Zegerid for my GERD, hiatal hernia and gastritis.
Thanks,

My dear Sherry Brescia,
Thank you very much for the Great Taste No Pain plan. I am very happy to have them.
I am 62 years old and I am suffering from gastritis since 40 years. Two years ago I had a colonoscopy and an endoscopy and the result was gastritis again. I had a little comfort taking Nexium and antacids. Four months ago suddenly came stomach pain, bloating, and indigestion with constipation. Taking Nexium, antacids and painkiller made me worst.
I went to doctor, he wanted a CT with IVF and oral liquid. CT didn't show any serious problem but I was suffering. I was very bad; I thought my stomach was going to burst.
Thinking desperately what I have to do I went Internet and by the chance I found your Great Taste No Pain plan on the web site. It was great to find something you think that will help to you. When I tried the plan I started feeling better. My pain is gone, my constipation is gone. I don't believe to this but it is true.
I know I will be better now. Believe me you are an ANGEL!
