Divine Health

[Kaneez Rizvi]

Do you know of Divine Health. Lydia is offering a course on digestion. If you know of this would you recommend it?

[Pat Robinson]

I believe Lydia has helped many people. What issues are you trying to address with digestion? Could you tell us a bit about your diet?

I personally am hoping to just learn more about digestion and how to properly absorb all nutrients. My mother on the other hand has always had stomach issues. She also suffers from arthritis. Nothing suits her well. I thought her class may help her as well. My father suffered from esophageal cancer caused by years of reflux. Reflux is very common in my family and bit scares me. Thanks for your help

Each of us learns in different ways. The book "Digestive Wellness" is a favorite comprehensive but practical guide to digestive wellness. :-)

I found it at our local library. 

Digestion 101.

The Beet Test (stomach acid).

Reflux (GERD).

Enzymes (food sources).

14 Steps for Healthy Guts.

Is the book by Elizabeth Lipsky? Thanks!

[Pat Robinson]

Yes!!  She is brilliant.

The book is a bit older but the concepts are sound.  Nowadays, everyone is reading GAPS. And it is very informative also. But, GAPS is directive and restrictive. Long-term it could limit nutrients and doesn't address detoxification issues, imo. Digestive Wellness *explains* in practical words about the digestive process.
