I was nearly incapacitated by gastritis for over 2 1/2 years. We're talking ER visits, 911 calls, many doctor visits. Recently, I was considering a forced, early retirement due to the inability to work. Today, my GI system is in near perfect health.

Here is what healed my GI system. Eating high quality animal fat and cooked veggies. Reduced consumption of lean meat, fruit, raw veggies, processed flour, hydrogenated oils, and cow derived dairy foods, spices, and vinegar based foods.

Processed foods and lean meals were replaced with meals high in animal fat, including the fattiest cuts of beef, pork, lamb, chicken, etc. Hydrogenated oils were replaced with lard for cooking. Bovine based dairy products were replaced with sheep and goat products. Can you believe I used to be a vegetarian? It just about destroyed my health.

What is the proof that this approach worked?
Complete and nearly immediate cessation of all GI disruption. No more esophageal burning or pain, no severe stomach or duodenum pain, no dumping syndrome, no gurgling, no swelling, nothing.

I am not as deprived as it may seem and not nearly as much as I used to be. Over time, I was able to gradually expand my food intake to include spices, vinegar, some flour and dairy, and other items that previously caused severe reactions.

The restoration of my GI system was beyond what I expected and could have hoped for.
