Probiotics: Nature's Internal Healers

Very helpful and much needed. Patients with IBD UC CD will find this book very useful. If you have on-going Ulcers, this is a good book.

The author outlines some theories and applications about probiotics that can be applicable to a broad range of diseases.She provided a section called picking the best probiotic supplements. In this section the book centers around her own products without explicitly saying so.For example she says buy a product without fos in an oil matrix carrier thats approved by this and this agency knowing quite well that only her own brand name product follows all those specifications.Trenev why not just go out and say it "buy natren my product is the best".A little deceptive in my opinion.Nevertheless this book is cheap and provides the layman with some good info to get started on a probiotic regimen.This book is somewhat outdated but there are little if any other major books on the subject.

I'm just getting started on Kefir making, and this book, although it discusses yogurt is impecable! It is also very easy to read. It not only explains probiotics, but why they are so important. It also talks about why the stuff in the store is pretty much a barren product. Great Job!!!

I looks much like the previous book she wrote. I would like to have seen more details on the research and the production of the probiotics. The first part is devoted to the digestive system,nutrition, microbiology and probiotic supplements. She focusses on the quality of the probiotics available. The second part is about treating disorders with probiotics. Not only gasto-intestinal disorders are discussed. It's an easy to read book on the subject.
