H.P. - a 56 year old man diagnosed with IBS


"I spent the last fifteen years in and out of the doctor’s surgery, having numerous tests done with no results.
Then about four years ago I was diagnosed with IBS. The only recommendation I had was to change my diet, not easy when your allergic to dairy, onions, garlic, animal fat, some vegetables, and to take a large daily dose of antacids to stop unbearable acid indigestion. 

Eventually I asked my GP if he could recommend a good nutritionist who could help me, but the answer was "don’t bother, its a waste of time and money".

Totally disheartened and angry I looked on the Internet for a nutritionist in my area and came across Norma. I had nothing to lose, so I decided to give it a try - and this decision changed my life!

First it is so good to have some one to talk to who is actually listening and trying to help you. We did some laboratory tests (GI Effects stool test) and found out I have Candida and missing some beneficial types of gut bacteria. And this has caused all the symptoms I have had over the last 15 - 20 years! I asked my GP many years ago to check for Candida, but he dismissed this suggestion as an unnecessary nonsense.

I was given a regime of supplements and change of diet and not long after I could see an improvement in my health. I'm still in the middle of this course but can now look forward of being totally healthy again.

What I also find excellent is that Norma is more like a friend, when ever I need some advice I give her a call, or she will phone me to see how I am doing. 

I can see it so often with my friends and family, getting drugs to treat the symptoms but nothing is done to find the underlying cause of the illness. And of course the drugs affect other parts of the body, causing other symptoms, creating a vicious circle that you can't get out until you try something different.  

My advice to anybody who had no joy with conventional treatment is don’t hesitate - it can only improve your health!"
