MucosaCalm: Soothing the Gut Lining and Supporting Mucosal Healing I formulated MucosaCalm over 20 years ago, to support healing of the mucosal lining throughout the gastrointestinal tract.

We recently received this review on the Shoppe listing for Absorb Plus Amino - Coco-Choc flavor: "Unsweetened Coco-choc is not elemental, it has 3g of fiber/serving. I did 19 days on the elemental diet, taking CH4 and H2 measurements along the way with a Food Marble device. There was a clear spike in gas levels [...]
Can Biohacking be Related to Hair Loss? My cousin asked me to listen to a podcast on Biohacking & DNA Testing that she found really enlightening. So we listened to Gary Brecka as we drove to the lake, and every substance (in a specific form) he mentioned as being a game-changer, I would say, "That's [...]

My latest formulation for Imix, Trace Matrix, contains 70 fulvic ionic trace minerals that are now missing from our soil (thanks to pesticides, herbicides and monocrops). These minerals also used to be present in our water – when our water ran through natural rock and soil, and wasn’t extensively filtered and processed. Thus Trace Matrix [...]
I've been getting some questions from friends and family about MultiAbsorb Immune Booster, and that's when I realized that I had not done a separate post about it! I'd always lumped it together with MultiAbsorb Daily Essential. So first of all, here's a quick run-down on how I've been using MA Immune Booster myself: MultiAbsorb [...]
I received an email from a reader who had been using the QuikPlus Iron, but his iron level had dropped, and his hemoglobin increased only slightly. What might be the cause of this? Let's look at some possible reasons, or what might be going wrong, and how to fix it: 1. Are you taking an [...]
Sometimes I read interesting things on Quora, and this post caught my eye because the author's friend is from Iran, where they use rock sugar infused with saffron to calm nausea. At first she thought this was extremely weird - but Nabat sugar is a popular remedy throughout the middle east. Why? Then she realized [...]

So I've seen a lot of orders come through the LTYG Shoppe, where people are buying BOTH ColonEaze~Firm and ColonEaze~Move. This is really puzzling to me, or perhaps more people than I realize have spastic colon...? I also wonder if y'all are confused about which one to use - perhaps I haven't explained it well [...]
Can you save time by taking your Absorb Plus shakes and probiotics together? The answer is yes! Just make sure you take any anti-pathogens, such as wild oregano oil, at least two hours away from probiotics (and food). I also want to emphasize how important it is to never mix Natren probiotics into your shake [...]

I'm thrilled to announce the NEW Absorb Plus Amino, a low-carb addition to the Absorb Plus family line! Absorb Plus Amino is a 100% natural, elemental (pre-digested for maximum absorption to the bloodstream within 20 minutes of ingestion) liquid protein shake. It is classified as an Elemental free-form amino acid formula because the protein component [...]
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 [...]
You may remember Episode 16 of the What Magnificence Podcast where Jini told the story of her mercury poisoning which led to massive hemorrhaging, spurring the creation of Absorb Plus. In that episode, she also described her near-death experience (NDE) and explored the difference between escapism and dissociation - a deep dive into pain control [...]

ColonEaze~Move is a stool softening agent to help relieve constipation and improve intestinal muscle tone and peristalsis.

Hi! Savannah from LTYG Shoppe, and today I want to talk to you about MucosaCalm. This is a product Jini formulated which contains the ingredients that she feels are the best healers for the intestinal wall and mucosal lining - and highly likely to be well tolerated.

Looking for added muscle recovery, a solution to muscle cramping, and support? Introducing QuikPlus Muscle Matrix, a brand new product and part of the QuikPlus atom-sized mineral line.

Before launching my new QuikPlus line of atom-sized (nano, angstrom) minerals, I was having some trouble sourcing a supplier who could give me zinc in the concentration I required for Bone Matrix. I'd gathered LOTS of data supporting the importance of zinc in oral health - I found that having increased copper and zinc in [...]
Yes, you can take MucosaCalm along with any prescription medications. Regular licorice is contraindicated for steroids, but MucosaCalm contains only Deglycyrrhizinated Licorice, so it is safe to take with any drug. If you want to wean off the drugs (always wean gradually and slowly - consult your doctor about this) then you would take the [...]
I recently wrote a blog post, Chaga Medicinal Mushrooms for Crohn’s & Colitis, in which I delve into the health benefits of chaga mushrooms. Well, I decided to get creative in my consumption of chaga - which is how I created this "Mucosal Healing" tea. It’s a combination of Jini's favorite mucosal healing agents and [...]

If you try to do a bowel rest diet using only whey protein (no carbohydrate component) you will quickly surpass your maximum daily protein limit whilst still feeling really hungry and tired. But more importantly, you will likely not gain any weight, so will remain very thin and weak, with low energy and lots of [...]
You asked, and we listened! We understand that your options are limited for elemental shakes. The options are even fewer for elemental shakes that taste good. We took that to heart, and I worked with Imix Nutrition to formulate not one but TWO delicious new unsweetened options! We think you'll love them as much as [...]
If you experience an increase in symptoms or diarrhea with MucosaCalm, you may attribute your reaction to Licorice. However, you need to keep in mind that the glycyrrhizin component of licorice has been removed from the licorice contained in MucosaCalm. Hence it only contains deglycyrrhizinated licorice (DGL). Glycyrrhizin is the component that has been "shown [...]
One of the awesome things about LTYG is the number of highly educated/intelligent readers I get - who then ask the best questions!

Although we sold the Mini-Minerals line for many years and I used it myself with good results, I also wondered why other products - like the Angstrom line and Dr. Carolyn Dean's line - tasted so much stronger. These other nano/angstrom/picometer/atom-sized minerals had an actual taste, whereas the Mini-Minerals line (Bone Support) tasted like water. [...]
We often receive this question from our readers: Should I add oil to my Absorb Plus shakes? What exactly are the benefits? Will it still be considered elemental? Cold-pressed oils are all compatible with the elemental diet, but look for one that is high in omega-3‘s for the anti-inflammatory effect. Most of the fat we [...]
As you may already know, I formulate the Absorb Plus elemental shakes for Imix Nutrition. And those of you who've been with me for a while, know that I periodically upgrade the formula as better ingredients become available, or new research is released. Well, I have recently made some upgrades to the vegan formula (which [...]
I knew that silica was important to promote healthy bones and teeth, as research shows that tiny silica particles could be used to repair damaged teeth and reduce sensitivity.
