In the many conversations and emails our support staff
handle each day, many people say that the pain they
experience makes them afraid to eat.
But I understand...because I had the same problem.
I was afraid to eat, too.
For many years I was caught in a cycle of frustration and
fear, because I ate what 99% of the "experts" said was
healthy. I worked out regularly, didn't smoke or do drugs,
yet I STILL had daily gas, rock-hard stomach bloating, and
alternating constipation and diarrhea.
All my doctor did was put me through a bunch of
embarrassing tests (anyone who's had a barium enema or
colonoscopy knows what I'm talking about), slap me with the
IBS label and give me pills that made me feel worse.
So yes, I got to the point where I was afraid to eat too.
But not anymore.
Because once I was educated about the proper pH balance
and learned the foods that digested easily with one
another, ALL of my symptoms disappeared.
It felt like a miracle.
Years of hell just a memory.
And now I've made it my life's mission to help others who
are suffering and feel hopeless like I did...
Like Nadine. Wait till you read her incredible story:
*******************
Hi Sherry,
I have been "gastro intestinally challenged" for most of
my adult years. So much so that I told my doctor that I
was scared to eat!
I am approaching 59 years and had almost resigned myself
to the fact that I would be destined to pain and suffering
for the rest of my life.
I have fibromyalgia and all of the "goodies" that come
along with it including IBS, migraines and food allergies.
I suffered daily with gas, bloating, cramps, constipation
and diarrhea.
My diet was very healthy - high fiber, mostly veggies and
grains, chicken and fish. I went on a low fiber diet
because the high fiber was killing me.
I took Miralax every night. I used charcoal capsules and
chlorophyll. Anything that I put in my mouth caused gas.
My gastroenterologist gave me antispasmodics and other meds
that made the gut worse. I drank plenty of water and
liquids yet I suffered from dry mouth.
I swim or walk every day and I stay at a size 6-8. So
what was wrong?
I had a carotid study 2 weeks ago and there was a bit of
plaque. I was put on 10 mg. of Lipitor. I was a little
disappointed that I had to start taking that! It made me
more constipated even though I was taking Miralax (which
was a "sure thing").
When I researched constipation and Lipitor I was lucky
enough to find you.

I was skeptical but I heard of these concepts in the past.
I have a nutritional background since I was a Dental
Hygienist for 30 years and was very tuned in to diet.
I decided to buy your manuals and cook book and start the
4 day - Pain Free in 1 Day plan. I found it extremely easy
to follow. I am on day 6 now. I have made your seafood
stew and carrot soup-both are delicious (and my husband
loved them too)!
NOW THE BEST PART- I have a quiet gut!!! This is the
best! NO gas or constant vibrations and rumbling.
I am eating well and I am never hungry. I have lost 2#
too! My saliva seems to have increased.
I had stopped eating raw vegetables and salads because
they made me so sick. I have been eating them again with
no problems. This has made me so happy - I just love
salads and veggies. I have had no trouble with figuring
out what to eat.
I will have to continue the Lipitor until I get checked
again but I am off Omeprozole which I was taking for GERD
and Miralax for constipation.
I know it is only 6 days but I am feeling so much better.
I will keep in touch with you Sherry and let you know my
progress. Thank you!
Regards,
Nadine P.

SB: You're welcome Nadine. Don't be surprised if you see
your fibromyalgia-related symptoms diminishing too--FM is
commonly linked to excess acidity in the body, so the more
alkaline you become over time, the better you'll feel.
Congratulations to you!
*********
If YOU have reached the point where you're afraid to eat,
I can help you.
If you feel like you're destined to a life of pain, you're
not.
You just need to learn how to make your body more alkaline
and eat foods together that prevent overproduction of acid
in your system.
In "How To End Stomach Pain Forever, Even If Your MD Says,
'No Way!'" you'll learn the science of why some foods
digest well with others and why some don't. All in
everyday, straightforward language.
It will all make perfect sense to you.
"Foods That Create Acid, Foods That Take It Away" spells
out exactly which foods are acid and which are alkaline, so
you'll know which ones to concentrate on. You'll also be
shocked to see how many illnesses are linked to an acidic
pH--you might see many problems you have on the list!
And "What To Eat With What" shows you what to pair with
your favorite foods, including meats, fish, chicken, pasta
and more.
Don't live one more minute thinking you're destined to a
life of pain.
PS: It's important to keep your intestinal flora
balanced. Having a healthy supply of beneficial bacteria
helps keep your digestion smooth, enhances nutrient
absorption and keeps your immune system strong. Super
Shield medical-grade probiotic formula can make this a snap
for you. Get Super Shield here:
