Shaklee Nutritional Supplements
For the last 3 years I have had IBS. I found this product 12 months ago and since then I have been I am like 80 - 90% cured. I think the biggest thing that helped me is OptiFlora, and I think the Energizing Soy Protein has maybe been a big help, too, cuz it has alot of calcium in it). And I have been taking NutriFeron for about the last 8 or 10 months - but my stomach problems were way better long before I started NutriFeron....
About a year ago I read some kind of article or email about how we're the "antibiotics generation", and doctors have been giving us antibiotics for everything, ever since we were little kids. So, supposedly, all the antibiotics, the chlorine & chemicals in tap water, and alot of the preservatives in soda and food - they all add up and they kill bacteria - but they kill bacteria indiscriminately - meaning that they kill the good stuff along with the bad stuff... (I guess your digestive system needs "good bacteria" to break stuff down properly).
Anyway, when I read this, I wondered if maybe that was my problem, so I started the OptiFlora. It's a little tiny pill you take every day (that has the bacteria in it, and Shaklee has like a patented pill that keeps it from breaking down until it gets to the right place in your colon, and all the little bacteria are still alive when they get there), Plus you take a little teaspoon of powder and add it to a drink - or in my case to my protein shake (the powder is like an odorless, tasteless, super-fine fiber powder that goes into your intestinal track and when the bacteria pill gets there and breaks open, the bacteria are sleepy and they use this powder for their food which gets them all energized and puts them to work). I started doing this every day, and about 12 weeks later I realized I hadn't had an "episode" in weeks! That's CRAZY for me. Even when I traveled, and couldn't control the way my food was cooked, I didn't have any episodes. I've been on it for about a year straight now and take it every day. I hardly ever have an episode - the last one I remember was last July (2005) when I was traveling one time - and I think I ate something bad). Since using this product I have been hooked on this company. I love their products so much since they have made me better. I know sell them being that I use them so much. here is a website to check them out at http://www.shaklee.net/nperson
