This article was sent to me by countless people yesterday, it is a really nice one illuminating many points that I discuss on the gastrointestinal tract and it's influence on health.
Oddly I had a friend over last night complaining of really awful arthritis and was having this same kind of discussion. She is gluten free and vegan, so it isn't that. It is important to really understand that there is so much to the balance inside the gastrointestinal tract. In reading this article, I felt like, wow, he was 3. There were so many plausible things which probably contributed to this boy's tract being unhealthy at such a young age.
It was his good fortune his parents had the consciousness to look further and seek alternatives for him, His whole life will be changed as a consequence. We are as little people, at the mercy of the state of our parents arwareness and openness really.
If you didn't catch it already, here it is: http://www.nytimes.com/2013/02/03/magazine/the-boy-with-a-thorn-in-his-joints.html?pagewanted=all&_r=1&

It's so sad that these
It's so sad that these problems are starting so young now. But I see it all around. My friend's 7 month old baby suffering from eczema. My nephew suffering from chronic constipation... So many immune systems are compromised. It just shows what all the vaccines, antibiotics, pesticides, pills, and all the other immune system killers out there are doing to us.
Thank goodness for Doctors like you that are offering alternative natural gut healing, and sharing information to us to protect our immune system in the future.
