Book excerpt: The New York Times–bestselling author of The Maker’s Diet shows how to fight IBS symptoms using biblical and natural health concepts. An estimated thirty million adults and children in this country—ten percent of the population—are plagued by Irritable Bowel Syndrome, or IBS. IBS is not a disease but a painful, life-altering, functional digestive disorder in which the muscular contractions of the digestive tract become irregular and uncoordinated. Certain foods and beverages, as well as anxiety and stress, can trigger symptoms. The nature of those symptoms—like cramps, flatulence, constipation, and diarrhea—are not easy to talk about with others, taking an emotional toll on those afflicted with them. IBS also accounts for $25 billion in direct and indirect costs each year. Enough is enough. In The Great Physician’s Rx for Irritable Bowel Syndrome, New York Times–bestselling author Jordan Rubin, along with Joseph Brasco, MD, shows readers how to apply the Seven Keys to Health and Wellness and naturally fight this painful and debilitating disease. This foundational book provides you the tools you need to live a long, healthy, and abundant life. If you desire to live life to the fullest, then The Great Physician’s Rx for Irritable Bowel Syndrome is for you.
