Book Reviews of A New IBS Solution

Book Review: SPOT-ON (for IBS-D)
Summary: 5 Stars

Just ordered this book, received it, and read it all in one night. I read this book because I wanted to hear his perspective on small intestinal bacterial overgrowth and the justification for using rifaximin (xifaxan) in treating it. That aside, what is great about this book is that there isn't much pussyfooting and crap about other things. It gets to the point and is substantial. He isn't selling anything.

For me, it was helpful for a few reasons.. he details and is specific on:
1. the role of stress, but that it's not a cause, but how it comes into play
2. how diet affects ibs - specifically, it's not that we're allergic to wheat or gluten, but how the glucose feeds bacteria
3. role of probiotics
4. why so many who take antibiotics feel good and have temporary symptom remission

anyhow, i really enjoyed this book. So much so that I read it two days in a row .. once and then again. I have several book on IBS, and for me, nothing tops this book. You'd think that from my review I know the person or am selling it.. but i'm not. This book does one thing that others doesn't.. it doesn't leave you guessing or asking yourself why? It explains everything backed up by studies, science, and experience. He also addresses IBS-C, and IBS-A (fluctuating)

Summary of A New IBS Solution

A New IBS Solution offers a revolutionary look at the way Irritable Bowel Syndrome is currently being treated. Today, over 60 million people of all ages across the country are suffering from Irritable Bowel Syndrom(IBS), which is characterized by abdominal pain, bloating, and altered bowel habits. But because patients may find it difficult to discuss their bowel problems with their physicians, they often suffer in silence or even worse, "learn to live it". According to Dr. Mark Pimentel, Director of the Gastrointestinal Motility Program at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, the majority of IBS cases can be treated successfully. Dr. Pimentel believes that the "missing link" or root cause of most IBS symtoms can be attributed to an overgrowth of bacteria in the small intestine. A New IBS Solution takes you through the historical evolution of conventional medicine's view on IBS in a way that can be easily understood. In addition, Dr. Pimentel presents a simple treatment protocol that will not only help you resolve your IBS symptoms, but will also prevent their recurrence.
