Healing Digestive Illness
by Russell Mariani [edit]
|
DescriptionRussell Mariani's book, Healing Digestive Illness, spotlights the importance of a healthy functioning digestive system, its central role to health and well-being, and how we choose to cooperate with or insult this dynamic healing system by the food and lifestyle choices we make. He carefully outlines a step by step journey to optimize the body's self-healing process leading to total dietary freedom. Understanding this complex process is made simple by a gifted writer. Richard J. Redding, MD As a veteran women's health Nurse Practitioner, I've come to the conclusion that upwards of 50% of all pelvic pain is not a gynecological problem but a bowel problem. Russell Mariani has taken one of life's most important and yet still too often taboo subjects; our bowels; and turned it into an interesting, understandable, enjoyable, humorous, and very healing journey. Yeah for Russell for having the "guts" to write such a life-changing book! Maxine Costa APRN, MSN We all experience digestive problems thoughout our lives and a simple fact is that many of these problems can easily be prevented simply by reading and putting into practice what lies in the pages of Healing Digestive Illness. Russell's tireless and diligent research into the subject along with his experiences derived from many hundreds of hours of personal counseling sessions with people from all walks of life are concentrated into a manual that offers us practical and realistic ways to improve our digestive health.

"My interest in natural healing and whole foods nutrition began shortly after I was misdiagnosed with colon cancer in 1973. Within three months the doctors settled on a diagnosis of pre-cancerous ulcerative colitis. I was 18 years old at the time. Believing I had little time to live and no time to waste, I started on my healing quest. I sought the answers to a few questions of vital interest to me at the time: How did this happen to me? What are the root causes of digestive disease? What role does diet and lifestyle play in reversing the disease process and restoring one's vitality, energy, health? Just exactly how does health really work? The answers I found were so inspiring and helpful that I decided to dedicate the rest of my life to the continuous learning and teaching of the fundamentals of nutrition and health. And that's what I have been doing since 1980. What you will find in the pages of this book, (Healing Digestive Illness) is a concise summary of all the things I have learned and all the things I try to teach my clients working closely together one on one over the course of several months.
