1 in 5 Americans have Irritable bowel syndrome and 70% of pa-tients that suffer from bowel diseases do not seek help. Irritable bowel disease, Crohn’s disease, Ulcerative Co-litis, Celiac disease and Acid reflux all have different names but are essentially brought about by similar mechanisms. All of these diseases create inflammation in your body.


Is Medication the Answer?

The most important question to ask is ‘Why?’ If we can discover the cause of your condition, we may be able to help you get your life back. Some medication works by shutting down the normal processes that may be causing your symptoms. Functional nutrition focuses on those pathways that are not working properly and help to support or enhance those pathways naturally.

Testimonial

"From a young age I dealt with stomach issues or “nervous stomach”. Spending many years dealing with the pain, cramping, diarrhea and was uncomfortable in social situations. I eventually went to a Gastroenterologist and was put through a battery of test. Irritable Bowel was the diagnosis. One prescription followed another and eventually I was told to alternate the drugs when one would stop working. After beginning Dr. Adams’ program, I no longer need the prescriptions. I am able to enjoy foods that I had given up years ago. Social settings with family and friends are no longer “interrupted” by my issues and the nervousness that would follow has been replaced with enjoyment!"
