Chocolate Cashew Butter Fudge – Dairy-Free, GF, and nearly Sugar-Free!
Jini's Chocolate Cashew Butter Fudge (Dairy-Free, GF) When you give up dairy, and then you give up sugar, you can feel SUPER deprived. But this treat makes all the deprivation and cravings for old vices disappear! We tried SIX versions of this recipe before perfecting it to my nit-picky standard for fabulousness. Now, [...]
Jini’s Thick ‘n Creamy Caesar Salad Dressing
Whenever I serve this healthy Caesar salad dressing, I ALWAYS have people asking me for the recipe. And it's so simple! I have yet to meet any child who doesn't care for it (as long as they don't know there are anchovies in it!). The anchovies are optional, however, so you can choose to leave [...]
My Experience of an Elemental Diet for Crohn’s Remission
When your digestive tract is inflamed or ulcerated, it becomes very difficult for your body to digest food, or to absorb any nutrients from your food. Your diet can become so restricted that you can only tolerate five to ten foods. In extreme states, you cannot eat any normal foods at all. I have gone [...]
Next-Level Elemental Diet for Crohn’s, Colitis, Diverticulitis, SIBO and IBS
Clinical trials may show that an elemental diet doesn't work too well for inducing remission in Colitis. But yet, I've had thousands of readers use my version of an elemental diet to heal their colitis and achieve complete remission. Why the difference? A standard elemental diet used in a clinical trial only tests ONE element [...]
Flu Pandemics – What You Can Do To Protect Yourself
When I first published this blog post, I had come across a news article from Associated Press (AP - one of the major news feed services to all large newspapers across North America and worldwide) that raised alarm about a new bird/pig/human hybrid virus that was sweeping through Mexico killing healthy, strong people (2009). At [...]
What do Fibromyalgia, Seizures and Jini’s Protocols Have in Common?
The more I read and the more research that emerges, the more it all points back to the GUT! If by some miracle, you are one of my readers and you are NOT on Natren probiotics (which I've been recommending for almost 20 years), then take heed... This first study examined the microbiota of people [...]
Peel a Head of Garlic in Just 10 Seconds!
I don't know about you, but I just LOVE tricks like this! I tried this method and it peeled about 90% of the cloves in the head of garlic. I shook the bowls for about 7 seconds, checked, then shook again for another 7-10 seconds - by which time some of the cloves were leaking [...]
IBS and Gut Infection in my Dog? Please help!
Audelina, Jini, Tiah (c) Linda Bickerton-Ross As a reader of mine, you may already know that my family consists of two dogs, two cats, and 11 horses. That being said, when this email came through OF COURSE I wanted to do whatever I could to help ASAP! Although legally I really can't provide [...]
Elemental vs. Semi-Elemental vs. Polymeric Diets
As elemental diets grow in popularity - especially for use with SIBO - I've received a few emails from people (and doctors) suggesting that Absorb Plus (Original formula) is not actually an elemental diet product. And that only products with free-form amino acids as their protein source qualify as "elemental". So what's the difference between [...]
Sabbatical vs Balance
Several weeks ago I wrote a lovely post about listening to my body's wisdom and taking a sabbatical... however, after a lovely, languid, lazy two weeks, numerous elements in my world went sideways and BAM! Just like that, my sabbatical was over. The interesting thing is that within a day or so of ending my [...]
