I had gotten very tired of my doctors telling me to either drink more water/eat more roughage/exercise more/or ignore it (hinting the pain was just normal spasms and I was a wimp). I had even gone to a food allergist who 'tested' me and she got a lot of things wrong (which is why her findings didn't help me at all either). Now, I am excited as I look forward to expanding my new diet. Thanks for the well done and thorough help you have provided. betty | |

| Amazing Products! | |
| I have suffered with GI problems for years and last year I finally decided to get tests done to see if anything major was wrong. Luckily nothing was found and I was diagnosed with IBS. It took me a full year after being diagnosed to do some research. I don't know if I was in denial or what but I was sick of being home all the time with fear of not having a bathroom close by. I purchased some Peppermint Oil pills and was amazed how they worked. I used them for a few weeks. I ended up getting this kit so I could try the other products too. I have a problem drinking the fennel tea, it's not something that tastes good to me but I really want to like it. The peppermint tea works almost instantly if I need it, thankfully it's rare I even need it. I just took a vacation and was so nervous about my stomach. I had 1 episode during the week which I admit, it wasn't a healthy eating week. I was able to have a couple adult beverages which is a miracle seeing as I gave up drinking alcohol a couple years ago. I just turned 30 so this is a great way to start a new chapter of my life. IBS had taken over my life and now I think I finally have my life back. Thank you Heather! | |

The peppermint oil made my urine sting and irritated my esophagus, so I didn't use it. I read the book Stop IBS, but the cookbook isn't useful because I don't cook much. My alternative medical doctor thinks that stress had a big impact on my digestion. The whole episode eased off in a few weeks. Thanks for your help. | |

| best buy | |
| this is the 2nd purchase here and it included everything i really needed. the first book and peppermint cas were not enough for me to understand everything. the cheat sheet said rice so I bought brown rice-huh- but only the book said white rice, so $35 of brown rice down the drain. The peppermint and fennel tea is delicious and relaxing. th acaci for soluable fiber and peppermint caps help a lot. Beware, tho that until you cut out ALL triggers you will get even worse. I tried to keep some sweets that included butter, which did not work. Sugar cookies with green sprinkles was a very bad idea. I have diarrhea with fecal incontinence-which no one knows why I have fecal incontinence except it began after abdominal cancer surgery 7 years ago. (I suspect it was something to do with removing all the omentum and putting my intestines back in a bit wrong). Read the book. do not think the cheat sheet goes you all you need to know. and elinimate everything she says asap. it only prolongs the physical and mental anguish if you do not. I wish I had found this before. | |

| Okay, I guess. | |||||
| Dear Friends, I clicked inadvertently before I wrote my review, so all you got was an "Okay, I guess." My real review went something like this--and a little more: It's a little too early to tell, as the diarrhea is not under control yet, however I'm just on my first "Big Kahuna" kit. I have great hope because you have all the information I found--and much more--that is counter to what doctors told me over the decades I have had IBS, severe lactose intolerance, and diverticulitis. I have changed my diet, but I do have great hope. I just ordered my second pound container of acacia. I hope all this works as the medical profession has completely failed me, and the diarrhea and other symptoms rule my life. I'm grateful I have nothing life threatening, but my quality of life is still affected very negatively. I have been very impressed with your service, quality of your products, and the information in your books. Please don't post my village name in your reviews; it's a very small place. Thank you.

| Symptom Free | |
| Heather, I just wanted to thank you for your Web Site and the Acacia Fiber. I was diagnosed, after months of suffering and testing, with IBS and sent home with a prescription of hyocyamine. As I searched the internet for how others were handling a diagnosis like mine I found your site and ordered the Acacia fiber and followed some of your nutrition guidelines. I have been symptom free from the day I started the fiber, up to this day. Such a simple change in nutrition and such a grand reward. I now eat a healthy diet of fresh meats, vegetables and fruits. I have eliminated the bulk of processed packaged foods and almost all grains from my diet and I walk 2-3 miles a day. What a difference! I lost 30 lbs. and my energy level is better than ever and I'm now 54. My fasting glucose has returned to the normal range and my fasting insulin level is down from 9 to 3. I also use a probiotic 3 times a day. Most importantly to me is my digestion and my other intestinal function is just great. I used to have what I called a bad day a couple of times a week because of my IBS symptoms but as I said, not one symptom now in 4 months. You helped turn my life around and open my eyes and ears to a new way of eating and thinking about my health. I just wanted to say Thank You. Larry W. | |

| I will continue to buy your tummy fiber, peppermint oil capsules, fennel and peppermint tummy teas forever! | |
| Hi Heather, I have been reading all the letters that you get from fellow IBS suffers, and I have bought several of your products for IBS. I came across your site at the beginning of the year when I was diagnosed with IBS, I could not bare the thought of living with the painful spasms and the diaorehea, bloating etc etc, the usual IBS symptoms I guess. My doctor gave me prescription drugs to help the spasms and did not mention anything about diet. (I have since discovered that dietery management plays a major part in the symptom management of IBS) Thats when i decided to do some research of my own and stubbled across quite a few sites related to IBS but who should i believe and which ones were just a scam! but i was always drawn back to your website and then i started to buy your products. Reading other peoples experiences from your site gave me inspiration and hope that maybe your products did actually work. There came a point that i actually was scared to eat anything because i was not sure of the things i could and could not eat and actually found it easier just "not to eat" then i started losing weight (and for me that was the starting point of realising that i could not keep living the way i was doing) i have never had a problem with my weight and that has always been stable throughout my life. so losing about 9lbs in weight in the space of a few months was actually quite scary for me but in the same breath, Feeling sick and being in pain all the time, just didnt do much for my appetite either. Your website was a life saver for me Heather and when i bought the tummy fiber that was the complete overall turning point for me, i have been using that for about 4 weeks now, and felt it was time i wrote to tell you that it really does work! i take 1 and half teaspoons per day and have virtually no pain at all, i can go to the bathroom without sitting on the toilet dreading those spasms and i actually use to find myself waiting on them to kick in, when they did it was agony and i will say i did actually pass out with the pain, this only happened about 3 times, but that was enough for me i would rather go through child birth than suffer the pain of IBS, at least labour pains and the delivering of a baby makes the pain go away! Plus you have a delightful bundle of joy at the end of the gruelling task of childbirth! I live in Glasgow in Bonnie Scotland, and all i can say is thank goodness for the internet because without that i would never have found your site. Your a very remarkable woman who has actually taught me a lot about IBS more than my own GP, i just wish that places in Glasgow stocked your products because i am sure there is a lot of people on this side of the world that have not found your website and just go on suffering the dreaded IBS because their GP's just cant be bothered with their symptoms. In the meantime i will continue to buy your tummy fiber, peppermint oil capsules, fennel and peppermint tummy teas forever or at least until maybe there comes a day when they do actually find a cure for IBS. i also have your IBS cook book which was also a big live saver!! Keep up the good work Heather, god bless you and i hope you are keeping good health? I am! and thats all down to you! Thank you so much for your email, I didnt actually expect a reply directly from yourself and that makes me very happy, that just proves to me that you do care about other peoples wellbeing, and that in itself makes you a special person in my book! I did have a little flare up of my IBS yesterday but nothing to what it use to be before I started using the tummy fiber, I had been eating a different brown bread to my usual one because I could not get the one that I normally buy and I think thats what caused the flare up, before I wouldnt have sussed out what would have caused the flare ups to happen and now I do, so the brown bread I was eating is now in the "trash". Please feel free to use my comments because I feel that the more people who know about the products that you sell and the results that they have, then the more people will not suffer as much as what they would without them (if that makes sense?) I would love to know more about the store in edinburgh that may be willing to stock your prodcuts so maybe you could keep me posted on this if possible? as this would obviously be a lot cheaper for the likes of myself instead of having to order from overseas, but personally speaking i wouldnt care how much it cost me for postage and packaging because I now know that my life would definately not be the same without them. Thank you so much for your email and I will continue to be using the tummy fiber, its a blessing in disguise!! Take care Heather and keep well. Thank you. Carol | |

| Medically Speaking - My Happiest New Year! | |
| Dear Heather: I live in a small town in Montana and travel 50 miles one way to get to any of my doctors that are specialists. There is a small hospital here and a few specialists, but not the ones I needed. Anyway, I am new to your book, "Eating for IBS" but after I got it and your cheat sheet I started trying out your IBS diet. I am sure you know what I am going to say now - WOW! It really works. I cannot thank you enough for sharing all this world of information and the beautiful thing about it is not only the relief , but you explained everything in such a way that someone who is not a doctor can understand. I am more familiar with my body as a result. Thank God for you, Heather. I just ordered "The First Year" for myself today. My doctor who has done my colonoscopies every 5 years (gastroenterologist) was the one who diagnosed the IBS and he did give me some print outs that talked about my diet and he told me he could give me some medication, but it would be great if I could work it out through a careful diet. I needed more details so I went to Google and searched for IBS help. Your internet site was the first one to come up. I was hesitant at first, but was desperate to get help without drugs. Thank God I ordered some of your products and when they worked I knew I was on the right track especially with the diet. When I last saw my doctor I told him about the diet and the products and he was glad I did not have to go the drug route. When I left the office I left them a copy of your cheat sheet. The Nurse was very interested in it. I told her about the internet site and the products as well. Knowing how limited her time is, I also told her that if the doctor was favorable to it I would be happy to have any of their patients who are suffering with IBS to call me for your information, especially those Seniors who might not have internet access. Please tell me how to do this and how to be helpful. What do I need - just the cheat sheet? I would never tell any of them what to do, but do you have a starter program that you recommend??? Secondly, I want to make sure that the nurse in my doctor's office has both of your books and I am thinking of ordering them. Surely these would be good starting material???? CONVERSE with the NURSE FIRST! Good motto. I know you must be so busy, but I will appreciate any help you can give. Please check out the attachment I have added to this e-mail so you can see for yourself a very happy 72 year old Christmas "Carol" and how well she looks and feels!! Thank you with all my heart and a Happy New Year to you! It pleases me to think that something I said or did would be helpful to other IBS patients. You have my consent to use my words or photo I sent to convince others of the value in your IBS diet and products. | |

| Greetings from Vivian | |
| Hello Heather: Thank you for your wonderful fiber. Finally I have found a most soothing fiber that is not only effective, but so pleasant tasting. I just ordered fennel tea, peppermint capsules and your book, " Eating for IBS". The recipes look absolutely fabulous and easy to prepare. Throughout my life I have suffered from digestive disorders due mainly to food allergies. Of course, years ago no MD could figure out what my problem was. I did my own research and discovered not only the food allergy problem, but also lactose intolerance, constipation, intolerance to sugar and anything containing sugar, plus a yeast overgrowth in my intestinal tract. In order to overcome the yeast problem I had to stop all sweets (chocolate, chewing gum, sodas, sugar etc.). Besides loosing approx 6 lbs. the intestinal gas ceased and my tummy was no longer distended. Bowel movements are now regular. I am now using sugar substitutes such as stevia, argarve nectar and brown rice syrup in my recipes. These I will incorporate in your recipes until my Yeast problem has stabilized. I have forwarded your website to friends of mine who I'm sure you will be hearing from very soon. I thank you again for the good work you have done and continue to do. With best regards, Vivian | |
