Happy Healthy Gut: the Natural Diet Solution to Curing IBS and Other Chronic Digestive Disorders

December 16, 2013
First-time author Browne, an advocate for nutrition education and digestive disorder cessation, recounts her personal odyssey: a 10-year voyage through stomach pain and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Like other epics, the journey is fraught with personal pain, perceived danger (pharmaceutical companies, milk products, meat and eggs, additives, chemicals, food irradiation), and fear of death, in this case colon cancer. Like most sagas, the story is told through the eyes of the teller, and some of the “data” is opinion. However, readers can be assured that Browne did reach her “Land of Great Digestive Ease” and is eager to share the map that led her there. Indeed, almost half the book comprises a relatively sound dietary strategy that led the author out of pain. For anyone—not just those facing food allergy, irritable bowel, or colitis issues—the book offers reasonable measures to consider and steps to take when better digestion is the goal.
