If you’ve been reading this blog for any length of time, you’ll know I’m really big on using and testing DMSO-based protocols. I have popular protocols for hemorrhoids, rectal stricture and intestinal strictures – all using DMSO as a primary, active component. I also find the idea of using DMSO in eyedrops particularly interesting –…

You may have heard about this news item already, but in addition to the financial aspect, it made me think of the importance of the mind/body connection in healing any chronic or serious dis-ease. As this article illustrates, it doesn’t matter how much money you have, what doctors you have access to, healing still involves…

ANYONE in an immune-compromised or vulnerable place of health needs to get on this immediately. I know of many people – even strong, healthy people, whose bodies hit that ‘overload’ place and they became EHS (electrohypersensitive). Their lives changed completely overnight. They could no longer LIVE in a city and in the beginning, some had…

Readers continuously ask me where/how they can get tested for mycobacterium avium paratuberculosis (MAP) infection. This is a bacterial/fungal hybrid that hides inside your cells, so is only detectable if you test for the DNA or RNA of the organism. However, over 90% of Crohn’s patients carry MAP when tested in clinical trials. And yes,…

I recently had dinner with a friend of mine who’s been going through a very stressful time: emotional stress; challenges with kids and homelife, and physical stress; not sleeping well and lots of travel. In the last couple of weeks, she’s noticed blood in her stool a few times. Sometimes it’s part of the feces,…

Dr. Nishimoto advises that to boost serotonin in the brain (which calms the nervous system and makes you feel good), you should chew your food really well, get lots of sunshine, breathe slowly and deeply, and practice rhythm exercises. This is one of his rhythm exercises, along with full instructions. Aside from being a great…

Join me as a guest on The SIBO Survivor Show, as I discuss with Josh Sabourin the various ways to use an elemental or semi-elemental diet with Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO) or Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)! What is an elemental diet? An elemental diet is made of the essential nutrients – protein (predigested; di-peptide…

I want to share this very important question from one of our readers, who noticed some differences between the Absorb Plus labels in the US vs. Absorb Plus in Canada: “We are very familiar with Absorb Plus, my very sick adult daughter has been using it off and on…she is in a bad flare now…

I want to share this email from a reader because I think his issues and questions are common to anyone with gut issues – whether they have SIBO, IBS, colitis, diverticulitis, etc. His plan is a good one – and as you can see, he has experienced some really good results for several months. He…

Ever since Dr. Steven Gundry came out with his book, very slick videos, and pervasive marketing campaign about the evils of lectin-containing foods… I’ve been suspicious. I didn’t change any of my eating habits, but I wondered if soaking or cooking de-activated these ‘damaging nutrients’ and the whole thing was a bunch of hype anyway.…

I want to tell you about Qu Biologics Inc. (Qu), a Canadian biopharmaceutical company developing Site Specific Immunomodulators (SSIs) designed to restore the body’s normal immune function to treat cancer, Crohn’s, and other immune-related diseases. Qu is currently conducting their 2nd phase of a new, experimental Crohn’s treatment. Instead of suppressing immune function, the process…

I have an entire book tailored specifically to treating Irritable Bowel Syndrome: Listen To Your IBS: Your Complete Natural Healing Guide. But for those of you who need specific help on using probiotics to improve your gut microflora, I’ve pulled out some great info for you here… But before we get to that, keep in…

If you do prolonged, intense abdominal workouts, jumping rope and other things that involve your pelvic floor, you may want to read this woman’s email to me: “I used your rectal prolapse guide as soon as I got it. It gave me so much hope. I also have vaginal prolapse, the rectal prolapse came after.…

We often get asked by readers is S. boulardii is safe to consume for people with IBD and IBS and is it actually beneficial? My answer up till now has been: When I tested it on myself – over 25 years ago – my body didn’t like it very much. And then I had a…

I always ask for feedback about a month after someone’s bought one of my books. This is the opportunity for me to hear what’s working, what isn’t, and if there are things missing from the book or protocol instructions. This is one of the things that’s made these natural healing protocols so powerful – detailed…

In this video, Dane Johnson picks Jini Patel Thompson’s brain for her insights and tips for his difficult cases using DMSO-based healing protocols for Crohn’s and Colitis. If you have any further questions, just post them below in the Comments section.

This is one of the BEST videos I’ve seen of a science-backed, yet down-to-earth, practical education on the digestive process. Barbara O’Neill is an Australian naturopath and nutritionist – who has 8 children! But even if you just watch the first few minutes – you’ll get the best understanding of why/how digestion begins in the…

By the time people find their way to my Crohn’s, colitis and diverticulitis treatments, their bacterial flora is usually unbalanced throughout their gastrointestinal tract. The repeated use of antibiotics (often since childhood) and the invasive medical diagnostic tests alone have destroyed much of the “good” (protective) bacteria in their small and large intestines. When the…

Sometimes people ask why certain products I’ve formulated have low levels of powdered calcium – way below the RDA (recommended daily amount – as set by the med/pharma industry). The short answer is that I want you to get your calcium in a better, safer form. The other issue is that calcium needs to be…

Here’s a funny story for you: I was recently asked to present at a gastroenterology seminar and the organizer wanted to know if I could speak about effective diets for Inflammatory Bowel Disease. That’s when I realized I did not have a video on this topic! I was actually shocked to discover that all my…

QUESTION: I’ve made the homemade HemorrHeal Rectal Suppository Formula for Internal Hemorrhoids and I’ve also had Rubber-Band Ligation of Hemorrhoids performed by a proctologist (cca. 6 procedures in the last 6 months). As using the formula and the ligation procedures have taken place roughly during the same time, I can say that hemorrhoids haven’t returned,…

Let me start by saying that I do eat meat. However, I buy all my meat and eggs from local farms I have visited, and I know what kind of life the animals live. The quarter of a cow I buy once a year is killed by hand (not a slaughterhouse). But even I did…
