2020 Update: I can hardly believe this… but after banging on about the inability to sterilize colonoscopes for the last decade; educating people on the risks and what you can do before and after to minimize the risks, I just found out there is now FINALLY a single-use, disposable, robotic colonoscope available and currently being used in Italy [...]
(c) Zen Honeycutt - Moms Across America I just received this message through the CHAT box on our site here, and I thought it was SO important and worth sharing: Hi Jini, Just wanted to send you this petition which I created on your brother's petition site AVAAZ regarding the harm glyphosate is [...]

He is the host of an upcoming video series titled "The Truth About Vaccines" where he will discuss the history of vaccines, vaccine risks and safety concerns, and the full list of options and alternatives. Here's an excerpt [...]
Okay, so back in 2012 (can't believe it's been that long!) I posted an experimental protocol for healing intestinal strictures and scar tissue, called Intestinal StrictureHeal (not to be confused with the Rectal version). I gave out the eBook for free so people could test the protocol and over 500 people downloaded that eBook. After [...]
If you live in Canada, you may have thought - like I did - that having a "Do not vaccinate my child" letter on file at your school was enough to ensure your child wasn't vaccinated during routine school vaccinations. However, that is NOT the case. My daughter just brought home a Consent Form from [...]
We recently received this feedback from a reader using the Vegan elemental diet shake kit to provide her body with some bowel rest and hopefully gain some weight. What I LOVE about her story, is she outlines the twisty path healing can take. And how when you're trying to heal multi-layered imbalances or dis-ease, you [...]
What do you feel about the place of nature, trees, plants, herbs and flowers in your journey to wholeness? I have come to realize that joining with nature is crucial to the re-alignment and empowerment of my whole self, my essential self. And of course, there are many ways to access or embody this. I [...]
Here's a little story from Dr. Goldberg for you, to kick off this topic: "We had a 47-year-old female patient, who following the advice of her Holistic, Functional Gynecologist, had a complete hysterectomy, plus a bilateral mastectomy based only on having the BRCA II gene. This was followed by a year of Diflucan prescribed by [...]
Back in June, I was woken up out of a dead sleep with RANCHO LA PUERTA sounding in my head and the words written out in my mind's eye. What the what? Write it down. So I wrote down: Rancho La Puerta. And immediately went back to sleep. In the morning I googled it and [...]
Reid Kimball has finally finished and released his film on alternative healing methods for colitis and Crohn's that many of us have been waiting for! I have watched the full documentary and it is just GREAT. It will educate you, give you hope, encourage you on your journey and hopefully give you new ideas to [...]
It seems that the residents of France have shifted their eating habits and decided that fish is a healthier option than beef or chicken. But is it? This fabulous film explores this question - especially in light of the fact that 40-50% of the fish sold in France is farmed fish. Believe it or not, [...]
Dr. Kelly Brogan MD Dr. Kelly Brogan's new book is like the Listen To Your Gut version of understanding and healing depression. And yes, many people with IBS or IBD also suffer from depression because of the HPA axis (remember my teleseminar with Dr. Gabor Mate?) and inflammation. So let me start out [...]
Wow, I thought I understood the difference between blood types - until I watched this short, sharp video! I've had my blood tested countless times, received blood transfusions, birthed 3 healthy babies - all without fully understanding the basic framework of blood typing: This is how we should learn things in school!
Art by Hugo Patel Thompson In a recent video, I talked about the messaging system that exists between the body and the mind. My body communicates physical, emotional, and spiritual information that I need to know in order to be the healthiest, happiest person I can be. WHY does the body do this? [...]
We just received this fantastic review in our Shoppe: "Taking the Natren Healthy Start System Tripack probiotics couple with the Joy of the Mountain Wild Oil of Oregano, my bleeding stopped in less than a week.

When you have a chronic illness, or your health has been seriously compromised, you can become very afraid of other organisms invading your body. Especially organisms classed as parasites, viruses or infectious bacteria. However, the problem with not feeling safe, is that it really stresses your immune system! So although we have tried-and-tested protocols here [...]
Did you know that the way you hold your body, sit, stand, and move your body through space, affects your hormone levels? Yes! Really. This fabulous video from Amy Cuddy (professor and researcher at Harvard Business School) shows us how and why our body language affects our mind, our mood and yes, even our hormone [...]
My teenagers asked me whether vaping with the nicotine-free vape is safe. If you have a teenager, then you know that vaping is the new 'big thang' and kids have even been allowed to vape at some schools. They can also buy it themselves at the local gas station or 7/11. So is it safe? [...]

Jini wrote a blog post about a Crohn's clinical trial back in late December 2014 and the same company, Qu Biologics, has now opened a clinical trial for Ulcerative Colitis. The treatment involves stimulating the innate immune system to wake up, and clean up ALL pathogens in the body (kill all the bad bugs). The [...]
I have been asked for references to the healers I go to in Vancouver, Canada so many times, that I realized I should put these up as a blog post! Once I had a reader in Israel who flew all the way here just so she could rent a house for few weeks and make [...]
This short, sweet video follows a Swedish family who normally eats conventional (non-organic) food. Their urine is analyzed for chemicals and then they switch to entirely certified organic foods for 2 weeks. Then their urine is re-tested. You decide whether the difference is worth the higher price of organic food: On my priority list, [...]
Here are my natural remedies for achalasia and dysphagia. Esophageal achalasia is a disorder which inhibits food from passing through the esophagus and also causes the lower esophageal sphincter from relaxing. The most common result of this disorder is difficulty swallowing but it can also cause regurgitation or chest pain. Dysphagia is the medical term [...]
Here's a common scenario for people with active Crohn's or Colitis: "I'm still at the hospital and I have a feeling I'll be here for a while. It's not my appendix. The CAT scan showed that I have an abscess in my small bowel. I'm on a liquid diet and they're giving me a lot [...]

I just got back from a couple of weeks in Akumal; which is on the Caribbean side of Mexico. The resort we go to is particularly wonderful because it is owned by a local Mexican man and is built horizontally - all along the beach. So whether you're sleeping, or eating, or walking around, you [...]
*Updated September 2019 I received a message from a doctor about a patient of his who had his stomach removed due to cancer, and as a result had severe protein malabsorption. Because of this, the doctor was wondering if Absorb Plus could be assimilated by this patient. Now, we have lots of people missing parts [...]
If the whole complicated mess about food allergies, food intolerances, blood allergy testing, skin pinprick allergy testing and what that means - i.e. what tests you should have done, who you should listen to, what impact (really!) does this have on your health - is driving you crazy... Then be sure and join us as [...]
Most manufacturers include prebiotics (often Fructooligosaccharide - FOS or galacto-oligosaccharides) in their probiotic supplements, claiming that the prebiotics increase the potency and effectiveness of the probiotic (good bacteria). However, as many people with IBD or IBS have experienced, ingesting prebiotics often just leads to more gas and bloating! Interestingly, this recent study on adding prebiotics [...]
Have you ever wondered what blood food allergy tests actually mean? When you order an IGE or IGA test, to test your blood for food allergies - what exactly is being tested, what do the results mean, and how reliable are they? This is NOT a cheap test to have done (around $250-$300), so if [...]

SIBO and the Elemental Diet Great news! We now have clinical trial evidence that a 14-day elemental diet is "highly effective" with an 80 - 84% success at eradicating small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) because: "Elemental diets have been shown to reduce enteric flora." Dr. Alison Siebecker has a lot of great information about SIBO [...]
UPDATE: My friend who received the original psychic prediction emailed the psychic back for further clarification about the cancer. However, due to the holidays, the psychic did not answer her right away. This gave my friend time to do what I suggested above - and she asked 3 of her closest friends what they thought [...]
I've recently learned about a new, experimental Crohn's treatment I want to tell you about. It involves stimulating the innate immune system to wake up, and clean up ALL pathogens in the body (kill all the bad bugs). The mechanism used to achieve this is by injecting components of dead E. coli bacteria into the [...]

A really great article on apple cider vinegar by Dr. Joseph Mercola is the inspiration for this blog post (and I excerpted a lot of his article here). But I had to do a bit of searching as many sources cite this first 2004 study - but no one (not even Mercola) gave the dosage! [...]
This recent paper published in Mycopathologia is an in-depth investigation into the different types of Candida (both the strains and locales of infection) along with some treatment recommendations - which may surprise you, since they're essentially what holistic practitioners have been advising for decades!

I recently had a reader who's doing well in his Healing Journey, but he still needs to gain about 15 pounds. He also still has to be careful about what he eats, so needs easily-tolerated, yet high nutrient foods. Notice I'm not just talking about calories - I'm talking about nutrition. Because we want to [...]
Now here's something that can do MORE for your health than any drug currently prescribed for Inflammatory Bowel Disease. Anyone with IBD, or IBS, knows that stress is the number one trigger for a flare. But what if, right now, you could re-frame that trigger to a new reality of: This is my body helping [...]
We received an email from Graham in England, who has been using extra virgin olive oil to help heal his ulcerative colitis. He takes it on an empty stomach, 3 times a day. And it is very important that you use a clean and potent brand of extra virgin olive oil (EVOO). I wanted to [...]
Speaking of "world is flat" issues... have you seen the latest press release from one of the creators of the HPV vaccine (Gardasil)? You know, the one where she says - OKAY, oops, stop press!! I was just going to quote from the article and link to it, but, surprise, surprise, the article has disappeared! [...]
If you take a look through medical journals, you will not find a lot of information or data about the use of elemental diets with ulcerative colitis (or any form of colitis). In fact, the data you find will likely say that elemental diets are not effective for colitis. Now whilst I cannot confirm or [...]
If you have any of the symptoms of IBS or Crohns, colitis and diverticulitis, it's safe to say your gut microbiota is unbalanced and unhealthy. With too many "bad" microorganisms (yeast, bacteria, viruses, parasites) and not enough good ones. But sometimes it's useful to know exactly what and how your gut flora is unbalanced and [...]
Recently I was interviewed by Kavi Jezzie Hockaday in the UK. Here's what he has to say about the interview: "This is an amazing 2 hour interview! Jini Patel Thompson has written many books, and I have to say, she has the BEST INFORMATION I have come across. If you, or anyone you know, has [...]
