After having 15 feet of my small intestine removed two years ago I've, understandably, had trouble with digestion and suffer from short gut syndrome.After seeing my doctor, 2 naturopaths, and 3 nutritionists, I was continuing to loose weight and was continually in the bathroom. I kept a diet journal for months and we were able to eliminate several major food groups that were giving me trouble but, even with a very restricted diet, I was still sick all the time.Several months ago my gastroenterologist put me on a strong antibiotic to kill everything in my gut, and then started me on VSL3.I think we're finally on to something! After a few weeks on VSL3 I had a stretch of over 2 weeks of feeling fine.Last month I started skipping doses, because I was doing so much better, and guess what- I started getting sick all over again.I'm back to taking 1-2 doses a day and definitely feel better. I highly recommend this to anyone suffering from short gut syndrome!

I have taken VSL#3 for nearly 6 years.

17 years ago I had my colon removed because of ulcerative colitis that would not respond to medication.

7-8 years ago I began to suffer from "pouchitis" and took large courses of metranidazole trying to curb it.

I developed peripheral neuropathy as a side effect of the metranidazole and had to stop taking it.

I then turned to what seemed like my only option: VSL#3, recommended by the surgeon who originally removed my colon.

For the past 6 years VSL# has managed my symptoms more-or-less successfully.

The times when it has not have been times when I tried to reduce my dosage (from 2 capsules 2 times daily). It has always taken a couple of months to reclaim my bowel health after trying to reduce my VSL#3.

I no longer run those types of experiments on myself.

If not for VSL#3 I am afraid I would either have to live in the bathroom or have an ostomy, neither of which are acceptable options

This book was very instrumental in preparing me for the RHIT Exam. The book along with the CD gave me an idea of what to expect on the exam. The material covered a wide range of topics. If you just follow the suggestions for studying you will cover enough material to pass the RHIT exam with flying colors!

I was able to purchase this book for around $25 thru Amazon/Bookbyte.Glad I got it early and I know what to expect from the exam.I like how it gives references to where you can find your answers.Even if you get your answers wrong on the CD, it tells you what the right answer is and where to find your answer. (Suprisingly, you can remember the right answer when you come across the question again.I am very pleased!

I have chronic GI problems and this product has helped regulate my system more than yogurt or other natural products."Normal" people may not need this, but I'm glad my doctor recommended it.

I have suffered from U.C. for 5 years. In April of this year I went on the Specific Carbohydrate Diet that has cured me from my aches and pains. I have also started taking the VSL#3 tablets that help me get better when I accidentally make a dietary mistake (like eating smoked chicken). VSL#3 cut down my flare up time, and now that I have been on it for about 2 months, I have had no flare ups. I am very very careful about what I eat and follow the SCD to the T. I also highly recommend that people wiht U.C. get on the SCD as well as take the VSL#3 tablets. If you follow the SCD diet, you are not allowed to take the powder form of the VSL #3, just the pills. They are a little more expensive. You can also purchase them in Costco as well.

I recommend that you also purchase the book "Breaking the Vicious Cycle."
