So I've seen a lot of orders come through the LTYG Shoppe, where people are buying BOTH ColonEaze~Firm and ColonEaze~Move.

Looking for a natural remedy for anal stenosis and stricture? When inflammation has been present for a long time in the rectum or anal canal, it sometimes causes scarring (fibrosis).

We had some GREAT questions come in from a member of my Lazer Tapping program (mind/body/spirit self-healing technique) and I just had to record a video reply! Why Did I Manifest This Disease?

Sometimes we can understand mind/body or spiritual concepts easier, if we see them modeled by someone else. And sometimes, when we can observe this wisdom in animals, it becomes a very powerful transmission. I am the guardian of horses, dogs and cats, and I learn continually from all of them. Even wild animals, or watching [...]
A while back I posted about Jay "The Gut Ninja" Baluk's success using my Probiotic Retention Enema. Well, since then, both Jay and I have had a LOT of requests from people who don't want to get my comprehensive Listen To Your Gut program, they just want Jini's Probiotic Retention Enema and Jini's Wild Oregano [...]
I recently received this email from an LTYG reader expressing their frustration with protocols being too hard. I hear your pain! And I wish that healing a chronic, supposedly incurable disease was easier and simpler…but the bottom line is, it’s not. I often receive emails like this, however, he was very upset so I wanted [...]
If you’re taking an antibiotic, you can either wait until the course of treatment is over before beginning probiotic supplementation, or, you can take probiotics during the course of antibiotic treatment. WHY should you take probiotics during or after antibiotic treatment? Because nature abhors a vacuum! This means that the risk of secondary or opportunistic [...]
Due to the amazing health benefits of homemade broths, many of you who have my book (The IBD Remission Diet) will know that I strongly advocate that people drink meat and vegetable broths in between the Absorb Plus shakes on the Diet. It also serves to stimulate the appetite: If you just consume sweet tastes [...]
I like to re-share this post every so often because I've received this question in various forms for YEARS now...does Absorb Plus create a candida problem?

An anti-candida (anti-yeast) diet is based on starving the yeast. In order to "starve" the yeast, you will want to cut out sugar, wheat, and dairy which yeast thrives on. Anti-Candida (Anti-Yeast) Diet Tips I'm going to give you some foods you should avoid eating to help starve the yeast, as well as some good [...]

A great example is Lazer Tapping for addressing unresolved emotional [...]

I enjoyed this video from hypnotherapist Marisa Peers so much that I took notes and then came up with my own examples to really drive her lessons home...

We recently tested the pH level of the 32 oz bottle of Bone Matrix, and due to it's higher concentration of minerals (most products contain far less minerals per bottle) the pH at its current concentration is 5.5 As you can see from the chart above, that may be a bit more acidic than you [...]

For anything that causes your liver or kidneys to work overtime (like drugs, pregnancy, chronic disease, processed food, GMO, pesticide-grown food, alcohol, etc.) you need to understand that the liver works in tandem with the lymphatic system - both are key for toxin removal and elimination.

IBS and other gut disorders can have many triggers - stress being at the top of the list! The connection between the mind and gut (which is also called your second brain) is powerful, as when your body goes into fight or flight mode it inhibits your digestive system and vagus nerve. The vagus nerve [...]

It’s easy to have all kinds of dreams, visions, and goals, but until you detail out what that would actually look/feel like – over the course of a day – you can’t KNOW that your dream/vision is what you really want. I recently listened to a presentation with Jon Butcher, where he led us in [...]
If you're using ColonEaze~Move to help address chronic constipation, or you're finally ingesting a therapeutic dosage of Natren probiotics, you might notice signs of detox, rashes, eruptions, or other undesirable skin reactions.

I formulated Absorb Plus for Imix Nutrition, back in 1998, after devising my own elemental shake formula that I used to heal myself from a severe flare of colonic hemorrhaging, brought on by mercury poisoning. My hemoglobin was 2/14, I weighed 99 lbs (I'm 5'7") but within 6 weeks of ingesting only my elemental shake, [...]

You may have already tried my lacto-fermented mayonnaise recipe?

Psyllium Seed Powder vs. Psyllium Husk Powder: What's the Difference? I formulated ColonEaze~Firm with only psyllium seed, and ColonEaze~Move with a beneficial 2:1 ratio of psyllium seed to psyllium husk. Why is this important and what is the difference between psyllium seed powder and psyllium husk powder? This paper explains the main differences, as well [...]
ColonEaze~Firm is my ideal stool bulking agent, formulated by me for Imix Nutrition, that relieves diarrhea by absorbing excess liquid, helping all those separate stool deposits clump/bind together, improving intestinal muscle tone, and helping to regulate/balance peristalsis. ColonEaze~Firm contains organic sprouted chia seed powder and organic psyllium seed powder. It does not contain psyllium husk. [...]
ColonEaze~Move is a stool softening agent to help relieve constipation and improve intestinal muscle tone and peristalsis.

It helps maintain regularity, along with gentle [...]

Food fears? Anyone who's healed themselves of a gut disorder knows that the food you eat is vitally connected to your health.

I recently received this email from a reader in the UK who did my Lazer Tapping course, and now knows how to do acupressure tapping to help shift and heal any issues, symptoms, or stressors that arise: "After 7 months of using your Lazer Tapping course I finally felt ready to write a review. I [...]
Sometimes I get emails from people who cannot tolerate any maltodextrin at all. They often request that I formulate a completely carb-free version of Absorb Plus. However, as I've written in The IBD Remission Diet and this post, it's extremely difficult to maintain or gain weight if you don't consume carbohydrates. If maltodextrin is your [...]
Sometimes I get emails like this one that just rip my heart out: "I am contacting you desperately looking for answers for our 6 month old Grandson. He has been unable to poo since birth, he has to be assisted and this is despite regular diarrhea, he also has a prolapse outside of his anus [...]
