Hello Friends of Natural Health,

My name is Dr. James D. Krystosik. I’ve been northeast Ohio’s leading

expert in functional medicine since 1986. I’m the author of 5 books on natural

medicine and nutrition, the host of “The Other Side of Medicine” radio program,

and I’m a nationally known speaker. I have formulated a line of nutrition

supplements (forLife Vitamins) and have helped other nutrition companies

formulate their nutritional supplements. Over the past 25 years, I have helped

over 13,000 patients reclaim their health without drugs or surgery. Many of these

people were told they had to be on medications for the rest of their lives. Many of

them were told they had to have body parts surgically removed, including small

and large intestines. Yet, with safe, all natural, functional medicine, I have helped

people retain their intestines, gall bladders, spleens, uteruses and other body

parts, in-tact, right where nature intended them to be. I’ve been able to help

people suffering with chronic stomach problems get out of pain, discomfort and

embarrassment, even if they have been suffering with their problem for years. I’ve

been able to help these people reclaim their health sometimes in a few days,

usually in a couple weeks, but certainly within 3 months, even after other doctors

have tried to help them for 10, 20, 30 or more years with little or no results.

Dr. Krystosik practices

a testimony to the

potential of the human

body. At 69 years young,

Dr. Krystosik is an avid

basketball player, he

An important note. Throughout this report, I refer to the term “stomach problems.” However, I want to make it clear that I am referring to “stomach” problems in a generalized way. In layman’s terms, the word “stomach” typically means a digestive problem anywhere in the abdomen—the gut. Therefore, in this report I will refer to “stomach problems” as digestive problems that exist anywhere in the esophagus, stomach, small intestine and large intestine.

Who can benefit from this report?

If you’re tired of living on a rolling coaster of symptoms. If you want to break out of the agony and pain of stomach distress, then I encourage you to keep reading. If you’re ready for a proven method that can end the pain, discomfort and embarrassment of chronic digestive problems once and for all…than I encourage you to keep reading. If you’re suffering with a chronic disease outside of the gut, and you’re wondering how is that possible if you don’t have any symptoms in my stomach…than I encourage you to keep reading. If you want to take advantage of a proven system of a PERSONALIZED PLAN TO OPTIMAL HEALTH that puts you in control of your well-being, I encourage you to keep reading. In the following pages you’re going to learn about how people just like you were liberated from the bondage of digestive problems, fatigue, joint pains, and the misery of chronic disease. I’m going to empower you to do the same, so you can enjoy life again.

Does this Sound Like You or Someone You Know?

“If there was a Cure for My Digestive Problem

or My Chronic Disease My Doctor Would Have

Already Told Me About It”

. …there is a powerful lobbying group that doesn’t want your doctor to know about safe, evidence based natural cures for common health problems. Let me explain. Whenever I give health lectures across the country, I often hear people comment, “If there was a natural cure for acid reflux, IBS, ulcerative colitis, diverticulitis, asthma, chronic fatigue, diabetes or any other kind of chronic disease, I’m sure my doctor would tell me about it.” Now it may shock you, but I promise your doctor won’t tell you about a natural cure for anything. Here is why and it is not your doctor’s fault. The reason your doctor won’t tell you about any natural cures is…big pharmaceutical companies (“BIG PHARMA”) do everything they can to ensure your doctor prescribes one thing—drugs. It all comes down to one thing, just follow the money. “BIG PHARMA” makes a lot of money if your doctor only treats your symptoms with drugs. They don’t want you or your doctor to find the cause of your illness, especially with a non-prescription natural cure. If your doctor found a natural cure for your illness, they would lose money. Multiply that by millions of people and they could literally lose billions of dollars. If you could find a cure for your stomach problem, autoimmune disease, or any other chronic disease, you wouldn’t need their medications. Do you think that would make Big Pharma happy? If there was a drug-free cure for your health problem they could lose billions of dollars. Do you think that would make them or their stockholders happy?

The said part of it all is, most people end up with DISEASE CARE instead of HEALTH CARE.

You deserve better than DISEASE CARE.

I’M SURE YOUR DOCTOR HAS GOOD INTENTIONS BUT…

You work hard every day to reach retirement, so you can enjoy those years in good health. Unfortunately, most people reach retirement with a chronic disease, or they never make it to retirement because they die prematurely.

Don’t be like that. There is a better way. Functional medicine is HEALTH CARE at its best. I’ll be telling you about this new branch of health care in a just a minute.

Now before I go any further, I want you to understand I am not opposed to medications. What I am opposed to is the overuse and abuse of medications.

Medications can be life-saving and if used properly they are a valuable tool to protect our health and well-being---especially in emergencies. We have the best emergency medical system in the world. In a medical emergency i.e., ruptured appendix, a raging bacterial meningitis or heart attack—medications are life-saving. However, when it comes to chronic health problems and the diseases associated with aging, modern medicine is failing, miserably. Conventional medicine doesn’t have any cure for chronic digestive illness, diabetes, heart disease, Alzheimer’s, cancer or any chronic disease.

DRUGS ARE NOT THE ANSWER.

At best, drugs only treat the symptoms of chronic disease and provide patients with comfort care—also known as palliative care. Medications mask symptoms PERIOD! They reduce or eliminate pain, lower blood pressure and sugar levels, reduce inflammation, suppress the immune system and provide symptomatic relief to keep the patient comfortable and prevent a medical crisis. Medications do not stop the progression of the disease. Remove the medications and the patient’s symptoms will return and spiral out of control. The bottom line is, modern medicine is treating the down-stream effects of some upstream mechanism that is broken. In other words, the cause of the disease is ignored. Instead the patient’s symptoms are the primary focus. Functional medicine, the type of medicine I help my patients with goes upstream to treat the cause of illness with safe, evidenced based natural medicine.

There is a huge gap in our health care system …

It’s patch-up, symptomatic treatment of

illness…millions of people are trapped in

it…suffering and dying prematurely because of it.

Medications are nothing more than pharmaceutical band-aids for chronic disease. Remember, medications do not stop the progression of chronic disease; If they work, at best they only relieve symptoms and delay the ultimate consequence of ignoring the cause of illness—disability or death. For example, diabetic medications control blood sugar levels from spiraling out of control. However, most people don’t know the medications do not protect the person from the consequences of diabetes; clogged arteries with subsequent heart attacks and strokes, diabetic retinopathy (number one cause of blindness), kidney damage and more. On top of that, medications have side effects often worse than the condition they are treating.

Let me give you an example. If you have acid reflux, conventional doctors prescribe acid blocking medications. They do relieve symptoms but with a high risk. A quick look at the warning label on the acid blocker medications reminds the user not to stay on the medication for more than 6 to 8 weeks. However, the sad truth is millions of people are taking acid blockers for years, even decades---astonishingly with the approval of their doctors. Yet research clearly demonstrates acid blocker medications used for more than 6 to 8 weeks increase the risk of muscle and bone loss, and an increased risk for life threatening infections. For example, acid blocking medication increase your risk for getting an intestinal infection, Clostridium Difficile, also known as “C. Diff.” This bacterial infection has severe consequences, including diarrhea and worst of all death. To make matters worse, acid blockers cause nutrient deficiencies.

There is a better way to treat acid reflux and any of the other chronic stomach illness, functional medicine---the system of health care I’ve been helping my patients with since 1986. It’s the best-kept secret in medicine. Functional medicine is the science of promoting healthy bodies. It treats the cause of disease and not merely the symptoms. Functional medicine is an entirely new way of looking at disease. It uncovers the factors that drive disease. Functional medicine focuses on nutrition and nutritional deficiencies, food allergies and food sensitivities, hormone imbalances, toxins, imbalance of the micro-organisms (bacteria, yeast, etc.) living in your gut, neurological imbalances and more. Functional medicine prescribes safe, time proven, evidence-based natural treatments that don’t cause harmful side effects. Functional medicine is the medicine of the future-available now!

FUNCTIONAL MEDICINE TREATS THE CAUSE

It’s sad, but the truth is a lot of people ignore the early warning signs of chronic disease. Bloating, gas, cramping, headaches, joint pains, fatigue are covered up by taking an over the counter or prescription medications. Many people foolishly wait until all hell breaks loose in their body and they end up with a full-blown chronic disease.

Don’t be like that. Wouldn’t it make good sense to find out the cause of your symptoms and a safe way to treat the early warning symptoms of disease before you’re faced with a medical crisis?

If your doctor only treats the symptoms of illness and doesn’t find the cause of your illness, you will go to your grave prematurely, suffering needlessly. Now don’t misunderstand me, as I mentioned earlier, I’m not questioning the integrity of your doctor. No doubt your doctor has good intentions and only wants the best for you and your family. Most doctors do. However, through no fault of their own, if your doctor never learned about functional medicine in medical school, you or a loved one will suffer the consequences. What if functional medicine could cure your bloating, gas, cramping, IBS, ulcerative colitis? Imagine if your chronic disease and all of the symptoms associated with it vanished. Imagine asthma, diabetes, eczema, depression, chronic

fatigue, heart disease other chronic diseases no longer rule your life. You owe it to yourself to learn about functional medicine—your life may depend on it.

You need to make informed health care choices, and not just accept hook, line and sinker whatever your doctor tells you. You don’t have to let disease rule your life. There is a better way. Functional medicine---the medicine of the future—available now!

The Doors to Health & Well-Being

Life is full of choices. Every day of our lives, each one of us stands in front of

many different doors confronted with making choices. Behind each one of the doors,

there are good choices and bad choices. Opening the right door at the right time is

important, and, in some instances, can be a life or death decision. Health care choices

are one of the most important decisions we make in life. Choosing the right door to walk

through in health care can enable us to reclaim our health and prevent a crisis. On the

other hand, if we choose the wrong door, we could end up with grave consequences,

including a premature death.

Drugs &

Surgery Functional

Medicine

Self-Help

Let me give you a couple examples of the importance of making the right health

care decision, at the right time. If you are in the middle of a heart attack, or your

suffering with a raging bacterial meningitis, or you had a traumatic injury, entering a

hospital emergency room would undoubtably be the best choice. Trying to treat these

medical conditions with an herb or some other natural remedy would be a foolish and

dangerous decision. Sometimes drugs and surgery are the only logical answer to

safeguard your health. On the other hand, some common health problems can be safely

and effectively treated with self-help measures; nutritional supplements, diet and

lifestyle modifications etc. Sometimes all that is needed to recover from illness or

maintain good health is by making simple lifestyle changes. In these situations, choosing

the measures behind door three may be all that is necessary to make a significant

difference in how you look and feel.

Still, there are many health problems, especially chronic health problems that

would gain little or no benefit from choosing the options behind door one or three. In

fact, myself and other health experts believe that choosing conventional medicine or

self-help measures to treat a chronic disease is just as foolish as turning towards a

natural remedy in a medical emergency. Choosing the options behind door one or three

in treating a chronic disease may in fact cause more harm and could even be life

threatening. Functional medicine is the safer and more effective treatment for chronic

disease than drugs, surgery or any self-help measure. Remember, functional medicine

treats underlying causes… not symptoms.

You need to make informed health care choices, and not just accept hook, line and sinker whatever your doctor tells you. You don’t have to let disease rule your life. There is a better way. FUNCTIONAL MEDICINE—The medicine of the future—available now!

I’ve had the privilege of helping over 13,000 patients using safe, evidenced based

functional medicine. I’d like to share a few of these patients’ dramatic stories with you.

Let me tell you about Stephany, one of my patients, who was diagnosed with

ulcerative colitis (a serious gastrointestinal disease). Before Stephany took advantage of

the healing power of functional medicine, she was miserable and heading for disaster.

CASE STUDY:

45-year old female

Stephany, a 45-year old female, suffered with Irritable Bowel

Syndrome IBS for over 15 years. Her alternating constipation and diarrhea

were a constant struggle. She and her family doctor tried their best to

control her symptoms with over-the-counter and prescription medications.

Even while taking the medications, Stephany’s stomach was routinely

bloated with painful cramping and gas. After years of suffering her

condition turned towards the worse. Over a period of 3 years her bowel

movements became more frequent until finally blood appeared in her

stool. Her family doctor referred her to a gastroenterologist. After a battery

of tests, she was diagnosed with severe ulcerative colitis. Stephanie’s doctor

prescribed more medications, including cortisone to control her condition.

Her symptoms got progressively worse until eventually the medications

stopped working. The gastroenterologist said her entire large intestine would

need to be surgically removed. Stephany was in shock! She made an

appointment to see me—the rest is history.

Within a month under my care, Stephany was having normal bowel

movements, no bleeding, no pain. Within three months she returned to work

and was able to perform normal activities of daily living. Stephany had a

new lease on life! Diarrhea Gone! Pain Gone! Blood in the Toilet Gone!

Bloating Gone! Depression Gone! Fatigue Gone! Medication Gone! Her

gastroenterologist was shocked she no longer needed surgery. Stephany has been in perfect health for almost 20 years now!

Could you imagine what Stephany’s life would have been like if she would have followed the gastroenterologist’s advice? Her entire colon would have been gone forever! She would have walked around with a colostomy back for the rest of her life. The good news is Stephany’s colon is still intact right where the good Lord intended it to be. How many people are in Stephanie’s shoes right now and don’t know about functional medicine? Just think about the pain, suffering and embarrassment they are experiencing.

Living with ulcerative colitis or any inflammatory bowel disease IBD is a constant battle with pain, misery and embarrassment. Worse than that, if it isn’t treated properly, ulcerative colitis could lead to death from complications. Life for anyone suffering with IBD is frightening and unpredictable. IBD sufferers need to be near a bathroom at all times. At any moment their intestinal tract could erupt in explosive diarrhea. Even in a mild case of IBD, the IBD sufferer’s world is turned upside-down. IBD changes how a person thinks, what they do and cannot do. IBD dictates what social events the individual can participate in. Activities of daily living, especially traveling, is governed by urgency, pain and embarrassment. Illness rules their life. The good news is anyone suffering with an inflammatory bowel disease, there is hope for you. My PERSONALIZED PLAN for OPTIMAL WELLNESS can restore your health just like it did for Stephany.

Now, your digestive illness may or may not be as serious or as complicated as

Stephany’s. Nonetheless, if you’re living with digestive problems or any other chronic

health problem, you have your own set of symptoms ruling your life. Believe me you’re

not alone. Millions of people just like you are in the same boat. Consider there are 120

million Americans who suffer with some type of digestive problems alone. Bloating, gas,

constipation, diarrhea, acid reflux, irritable bowel syndrome and inflammatory bowel

diseases are making the drug companies rich—yet millions of people suffer needlessly.

Recently, the New England Journal of Medicine, the world’s leading medical journal,

reported 75% of people with digestive illness, taking medications, continue to

experience symptoms three or more times per week. If you are one them, don’t be

disappointed, it’s not your fault.

The New England Journal of Medicine recently

reported that 75% of people who have a digestive illness,

even though they’re taking their medications, continue to

experience symptoms 3 or more times per week.

Let me tell you about Kathy, a 31-year-old housewife who arrived at my office 3 months pregnant, with projectile vomiting and worried to death about the safety of the baby in her womb. As a consequence of her digestive problems she lost 12 pounds in one month. Think about that, she lost weight in her first trimester of pregnancy. Not good. Writhing in pain, depressed and fatigued and worried about the safety of her baby Kathy was desperate for an answer. I immediately ordered the blood test that would enable me to prescribe a personalized diet for Kathy. I also prescribed some dietary supplements to give her some temporary relief. Once the blood test results came back, in less than three days Kathy was no longer vomiting. In two weeks, Kathy gained 14 lbs. and was health was back to normal. Six months later Kathy gave birth to a beautiful, healthy, little girl. Kathy, her husband and entire her entire family were relieved and forever grateful.

Case Study:

8-year old boy

One of my patients, Erin, an 8-year-old boy, suffered with a severe and unexplainable

constipation. Erin felt lucky if he had a bowel movement ONE TIME A WEEK—that was on a good

week. On average he had a bowel movement ONCE EVERY TWO WEEKS. Erin, his family and his

doctors, including specialists at a famous Cleveland hospital were baffled. Erin’s condition got

progressively worse. His digestive problem was a dismal failure of the medical community. Erin’s

parents were told by specialists the next treatment would be surgery. This family was caught in

the medical mousetrap. Frustrated and disappointed with the poor prognosis for this young boy,

his parents started looking for answers outside the conventional medical community. Several

alternative doctors were consulted. He was prescribed, herbal laxatives, colonic irrigations,

gluten free and special diets. Still, there was very little improvement in Erin’s condition.

One Sunday afternoon, Erin’s parents were surfing channels on the radio when they came

across my radio program, “The Other Side of Medicine.” When they heard me talk about my

system to digestive wellness they knew there might be a chance I could help their son. This would

be Erin’s last chance before he would have to succumb to the surgeon’s knife. The next day Erin’s

parents scheduled an appointment for a consultation with me. After hearing Erin’s story, I knew

I knew I could help him. I immediately ordered a special food allergy blood test and a

comprehensive stool analysis test. I also prescribed several dietary and lifestyle modifications,

including some specific nutritional supplements. I assured Erin and his parents that in a few short

days he would have normal bowel movements. His digestive saga would soon be over. Although

my words sounded comforting, I knew the entire family, including Eric was skeptical. They had

been disappointed to many times—yet they were cautiously hopeful. In just two short days Erin

was already having a partial bowel movement. Within one week he was having a bowel

movement every couple days. Within a month, Erin was having a bowel movement every day

without pain or distress. Erin’s parents cancelled his future appointments with the

gastroenterologist, including the surgery. Several years later, I ran into Erin’s parents in a health

food store. They were delighted to tell me Erin was doing well without any further episodes of

constipation. What is most amusing to me is Erin’s doctors claimed his cure was a “spontaneous

remission.” In other words, they refused to admit functional medicine cured his problem.

Kaley, a 25-year-old was suffering with the classic signs of Lupus--severe joint

pains, digestive problems, fatigue and a skin rash when she entered my office. At age

21, Cindy was diagnosed with this autoimmune disease. After taking medications for

years her condition was only getting worse. Cindy started to search on her own for an

alternative answer to her debilitating chronic health problem. After surfing the internet,

she came across my website theOtherSideofMedicine and decided to make an

appointment with me.

Kaley was cautiously optimistic and openly skeptical when she sat down with me

during her initial consultation. Needless to say, she was frustrated with her condition

and was not willing to get overly excited about my positive outlook for her. However,

after following my PERSONALIZED PLAN for OPTIMAL WELLNESS for less than 30 days,

Kaley entered my office with a big smile on her face. She explained she was significantly

better, off all of her medications and had a lot more energy with 0 digestive problems.

You can watch and hear Kaley’s testimony on TheOtherSideofMedicine.com by clicking

on the video testimonials and search for LUPUS.

One of my favorite and most amusing patients was my grandmother. Her heart

condition confined her to a wheel chair, where she spent most of her day. Interestingly,

for years grandma Krystosik was convinced natural medicine was worthless—until...

Until that is, natural medicine enabled her to have regular bowel movements. After

years of overuse of over-the-counter and prescription laxatives her bowel problems

became progressively worse. One day, after not having a bowel movement for almost a

month, grandma Krystosik made sure nobody was in the room except her and I. Sitting

quietly in her wheel chair, she whispered, “Psssst, Jimmy…I’m stuck.” I was confused

because she didn’t appear to be stuck in the wheelchair. I responded, “Grandma you

don’t look like your stuck; tell me, what is it?” Cautiously, to make sure no one else had

entered the room, she wiggled her finger and signaled me to move closer. Once again,

she whispered softly, “Jimmy, I’m not able to have a bowel movement, I’M STUCK!”

Finally, I got it. “Grandma, what do you want me to do?” She replied, “Can you help me

with one of your herbs?” I smiled and replied, “Of course I’ll help you, grandma.” Right

then and there, I brewed up a cup of a special blend of herbal teas. I also gave her

specific instructions on what to eat, and what not to eat. The next day my grandmother

said good morning to me with a zip and a smile on her face. As my parents, grandma

Krystosik and I sat at the breakfast table, I asked her, “How are you doing today

grandma?” She winked at me, smiled and said, “I’m doing very good, thank you.” It was

her way of telling me she was no longer constipated.

Irritable Bowel Syndrome IBS plagues over 60 million Americans. IBS suffers

typically bounce from doctor to doctor, medication after medication, often with little or

no results. The discomfort, pain and embarrassment of IBS makes life miserable. Many

people suffer with IBS for 10, 15, 20 years—sometimes their entire life.

The symptoms of Irritable Bowel Syndrome IBS are no laughing matter. Abdominal cramping, diarrhea, constipation, bloating, gas, mucus in the stool, nausea, headache, depression and fatigue are common symptoms associated with IBS.

One out of every five Americans suffer from IBS. In fact, according to the surgeon general of the United States, IBS is the number one health problem in America. Women are more likely to suffer with IBS than men. For most individuals, IBS usually begins in the middle 20’s. The good news is I have helped thousands of people to say goodbye to irritable bowel syndrome forever—without drugs. In just a few short weeks my patients many who suffered with IBS for years have normal, pain free, bowel movements.

Let me tell you about one them Loretta, a middle-aged woman was tossed around the medical community for more than 20 years with the symptoms of IBS. According to Loretta, her bloating was so bad, her tummy stuck out like a woman in midterm of pregnancy. Her alternating bouts of constipation & diarrhea, headaches and fatigue were constant. Depressed and in digestive misery, Loretta’s doctors ordered tests, tests and more tests. The problem is they missed ordering the most important test that would eventually uncover the underlying cause of her IBS. Fortunately for Loretta, I have been ordering this simple blood test for my patients since 1986. Let me tell you how it helped to resolve Loretta’s digestive problems.

Loretta’s blood test revealed the foods that were making her sick tired and overweight. The personalized diet I prescribed from the results of the blood report cured Loretta’s IBS within a few short weeks. It’s almost hard to believe that after suffering with her digestive problem for more than 20 years, she was symptom free and cured of IBS. Loretta’s life went from sick and crabby to healthy and happy. And a pleasant side effect Loretta never anticipated was she lost 23 in less than 30 days. She lost 40 lbs. in 3 months.

• NO cramps

• NO bloating

• NO gas

• NO constipation

• NO diarrhea and running to the bathroom

• NO more doubling over with pain

• The bottom line is Loretta was free from it all … NO MORE IBS

Conventional medicine does not have a cure for Irritable Bowel Syndrome because

they claim the cause of irritable bowel syndrome is unknown. The only treatment they

have for IBS…you guessed it, medications. In fact, everyone gets the same medications.

It’s cookbook medicine. In fact, everyone gets the same medications—just like a recipe

in a cookbook. Commonly prescribed medications for irritable bowel syndrome include

antidiarrheal medications, antispasmodic medications (to reduce spasms in the colon)

antidepressant medications and fiber. In fact, it is very common for doctors to prescribe

ant-depressant medications for IBS. The truth is, if they can’t figure out the cause of any

disease, and their medications are not working, they conclude it must be all in the

patient’s head. At the Other Side of Medicine Health Center, I treat the root causes of

IBS. I prescribe a personalized, systems approach to IBS.

Sadly, conventional doctors routinely tell their patients they have to learn to live

with their digestive problems. That’s because they believe as we get older we should

expect to have digestive problems. Please don’t accept this outdated belief. Bloating,

gas, indigestion, heartburn, diarrhea and constipation are not normal, regardless of age.

Yet the truth is millions of Americans experience these symptoms every day—many of

them will go their graves with IBS. The good news is you don’t have to suffer any longer.

Patients often ask their doctors if there are any foods that could be causing their

IBS? The response is generally no, foods are the not the cause of IBS. Yet many people,

discover on their own certain foods trigger their digestive problems, including IBS. Spicy

foods, fatty foods, fried foods are some of the worse culprits. The truth is any food can

cause a long-list of digestive problems. And since no two people are alike, one person’s

food could be another person’s poison.

The question is why do certain foods irritate your digestive system, while others

don’t? Why can one family member eat a certain food without any problems, yet

another person in the same family eat the same food and they are doubled over in the

bathroom in pain? Why can you eat a food one time and it doesn’t bother you, but

another time the same food can make you miserable? Why do people crave certain

foods? The question is, why do so many tummies ache and how do some foods, even

healthy foods end up exploding in your stomach. Let me explain why these confusing

and contradictory symptoms plague so many people. More importantly, let me share

with you what the latest research says you can do about it.

Some of the things I’m about to share may surprise you.

Leaky Gut, Digestive Illness & Food Allergies

Leaky gut--sounds gross, doesn’t it? Actually, it’s not nearly as gross as it sounds,

and it certainly doesn’t look anything like the above illustration. Leaky gut is a layman’s

term for a medical term known as increased intestinal permeability. A leaky gut is one of

twenty-first century’s most important medical discoveries—and it’s one of the best kept

secrets in medicine. Once you understand the significance of the leaky gut and take the

appropriate steps to repair it, you will be well on your way to digestive wellness and a

lifetime of good health. I promise you, if you or anyone you know is suffering with a

stomach problem, or any chronic disease, more than likely, a leaky gut is a major,

underlying contributing factor.

A leaky gut is abnormal pathway for toxins to enter the body through the gut. If toxins pass through the gut and enter into the bloodstream big trouble is on its way inside the body. It’s like a person that slips by security, crashes a private party and ruins it for everyone.

Let me give you an oversimplified explanation of the leaky gut. Under normal

circumstances, in the small intestine, tiny, predigested, microscopic particles of fats,

proteins and carbohydrates, along with vitamins, minerals and water cross through its

borders (the lining of the gut), and into the blood stream. The nutrients travel through

the bloodstream and deliver nourishment to all the body parts and systems. It’s

important to understand that the small intestine is very selective. It only allows specific

size particles of nutrients to cross its border and into the blood. To illustrate my point,

I’d like to compare the intestines screening of particle size to a sieve used as a cooking

utensil. A kitchen sieve only allows liquid to pass through it. When the sieve is doing its

job, rice, beans or noodles are left behind inside the sieve, yet the water is able to pass

through the sieve. However, if a tear develops in the sieve, unwanted particles of food

can pass through it and they end up with the water.

In a likewise manner, the lining of the small intestine can become inflamed and

develop microscopic tears—Leaky Gut. Medications (especially antibiotics and anti-

inflammatory drugs), chemicals in our food and water supply, toxins as well as poor

nutrition and stress are the major causes of leaky gut.

The leaky gut allows partially digested particles of food, as well as toxic

substances to pass through the gut and into the blood. Immediately, the immune

system is sent into red alert. The immune system perceives the larger than normal size

particles of food as foreign invaders (bacteria, virus, cancer cell) entering into the blood.

Consequently, the immune system mounts a full-blown attack and releases potent anti-

inflammatory chemicals into the bloodstream. The inflammatory compounds travel

throughout the body leaving a trail of pain and symptoms behind.

The inflammation that occurs immediately following an acute injury like a

sprained ankle or a cut on the skin is a healthy response and a good measure displayed

by the body. Normally, in a relatively short-period of time the immune system cleans all

the debris up from the injury and the body turns off the inflammation . However, after

the initial reaction of a hidden food allergy, the inflammatory response does not shut

off. Hidden food allergies result in chronic inflammation.

Researchers have recently linked “leaky gut” to chronic inflammation. Many

diseases including stomach disorders like IBS, reflux disease, asthma, diabetes, heart

disease, brain disorders like dementia, depression, Alzheimer’s, autoimmune diseases

like ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s disease, psoriasis, multiple sclerosis, lupus, rheumatoid

arthritis and even cancer are associated with leaky gut.

According to one of my colleagues, Dr. James Braly, M.D., author of Allergy and

Nutrition Revolution, there are over 150 symptoms and 100 diseases that are linked to

the Leaky Gut Syndrome, hidden food allergies and the chronic inflammation that

follows it. Dr. Theron Randolph, M.D. and one of the world’s leading allergy experts, he

claims that hidden food allergies are responsible for 90% or more of regular office visits

to the conventional doctor’s office.

Below is an illustration of the Leaky Gut Syndrome. Please take a minute to

review it. First, at the top of the illustration you will see the words CONTENTS OF THE

GUT in blue. This is part of the long tube that carries the food through your digestive

system. Next, you will notice little symbols; half-moons, star shapes and little dots.

These symbols represent 1.) beneficial and harmful bacteria (good/bad bugs), 2.)

completely digested food particles and 3.) partially digested (undigested) food particles.

As you will soon find out, all three of these play a significant role in a leaky gut. Moving

down the illustration you will find light brown rectangles with finger like projections at

the top of each rectangle. The rectangles represent the single layer of cells tightly lined

up next to each other creating a thin membrane lining the wall of the intestine. This

membrane serves two vitally crucial functions: 1.) managing the absorption of nutrients

and other useful substances into the bloodstream. 1.) Protecting the body from allowing

harmful substances to enter the bloodstream from the outside world. The intelligence

and ability it requires for this membrane to manage these responsibilities is

extraordinary.

Now remember, the gut lining is only one cell layer thick. Contrast that with the

skin which has 50 to 100 layers of cells protecting you from the outside world. The

cellophane thin layer of cells that line the intestines is 50 microns. To illustrate how thin

that really is, a single human hair is 100 microns. If you split a human hair in half that is

approximately 50 microns. Now consider the following. This single layer of cells is the

only barrier protecting the body from the potentially toxic contents of the intestines (a

sewer). Bacteria, viruses, parasites, toxins in the food or water are all screened and

blocked from entering the blood by this thin membrane. All these potentially dangerous

elements have to be intelligently managed by the gut lining. If this protective lining is

damaged, symptoms will arise, and all hell can break loose inside the body. Sitting

behind this membrane is the gut immune system. The gut immune system makes up

70% of the body’s entire immune system.

Normally, the cells that make up the lining of the gut are tightly bound next to

each other. If the lining of the gut is damaged by toxins, nutrient deficiencies, stress,

etc., a separation of the cells in the gut lining can develop. The gap between two cells is

referred to as a LEAKY GUT and is marked in red. The leaky gut becomes a pathway for

partially digested food, bacteria, toxins and future illness. A leaky gut is a prescription

for illness, including hidden food allergies.

ALL DISEASE

BEGINS IN

THE GUT

~ HIPPOCRATES ~

Hidden food allergies stem from a leaky gut. If partially digested food particles enter

into the blood, the body’s immune system is alerted, inflammation and hidden food

allergies will soon follow.

According to Dr. Oz on a recent television

broadcast, over 200 million Americans are suffering

with symptoms caused by hidden food allergies.

Over the past 25 years I have treated thousands of patients with hidden food

allergies. The blood test I prescribe for hidden food allergies has helped these patients

to say goodbye to chronic disease once and for all. Most of these people were taking

multiple medications for 5, 10, 15 and 20 years or more. Many of them were told that

surgery was the only treatment that could help their chronic symptoms. Yet after these

individuals got the simple blood test for hidden food allergies, eliminated them for 3

months, they were symptom free, living a drug free life and were able to cancel their

surgeries.

You don’t have to let disease rule your life. Within 30 days or less on my

Personalized Plan to Optimal Health , you will get dramatic relief or complete remission

of symptoms you may have been suffering with for year. Within 3 months, you can be

completely symptom free.

If you’re like most people suffering with a digestive illness, no doubt you are well

aware that some foods make your symptoms worse and some foods make you feel

better. Digestive problems or not, food is your best medicine. On the other hand, if you

are eating foods you have a hidden food allergy too, they can make your sick, tired and

overweight. it’s a challenging, daily task trying to figure out which foods are right for

me? The truth is, this question has been troubling humans since the dawn of time.

.

Think about it. One wrong food, a healthy food, an apple, from the wrong tree sent the

world spinning into disarray.

Just imagine how much better life would be if Eve would have eaten the foods that were

right for her?

The take home message: Don’t make the wrong food choices with all of its

deadly, grave consequences. Find out which foods are right for you. don’t guess…be

sure and test. Let me create a PERSONALIZED PLAN TO OPTMAL HEALTH for YOU!

The blood draw station can send your blood sample to the specialty lab we use to test

for hidden food allergies. If you have any questions, you can leave a message on the

chat tab available on the home page of this website. I promise I will personally answer

your question within 48 hours. You can also find a lot more information on many health

topics by listening to podcasts of my radio program available on this website.

Lastly, I encourage you to listen to the audio testimonials, and watch the videos

of many of my patients who suffered for years with chronic disease, until we identified

their hidden food allergies. patient testimonies Once we personalized their diet, they

became symptom free and independently healthy. I wish the same for you and your

loved ones.

Sincerely,

Dr. James D. Krystosik

“Dr. Good Carbs”

In a few short minutes I’ll be telling you the details about this simple blood test

that pinpoints the foods that are right for you. I have ordered this blood test for

thousands of patients and I’ve never seen one patient that didn’t have dramatic

benefits.

And after we identified the foods that were right for them, in a few short weeks

they were symptom free. In a few minutes I’ll tell you about this life changing blood test.

But before I do, let me explain the consequences of the leaky gut, its connection to

hidden food allergies and give you a brief explanation and illustration of it.

Researchers have linked the leaky gut, delayed food allergies and inflammation to

a long-list of chronic illness including; weight problems, joint pains, digestive diseases,

skin diseases, asthma and other lung diseases, autoimmune diseases like ulcerative

colitis, Crohn’s disease, psoriasis, lupus, rheumatoid arthritis and more. According to a

colleague of mine, Dr. James Braly, M.D., author of Allergy and Nutrition Revolution,

there are over 150 diseases and 100 symptoms that are linked to Leaky Gut Syndrome

and Delayed Food Allergies.

Top to Bottom

Say Goodbye to Stomach Problems

FFFFFwith my Proven System to

mmmmmDigestive Wellness

Are you ready to transform your digestive system from crabby & sick to healthy

and happy? The advice I’m going to share with you right now will help you restore the

health of your digestive system once and for all. It’s my time proven system to a lifetime

of digestive wellness. The system is simple, and I designed it be enjoyable. It’s as easy as

1, 2, 3.

1.) Anti-Inflammatory Diet My delicious meal plan is a prescription for digestive

wellness based on the diet and lifestyles of the healthiest people in the world. My Anti-

Inflammatory Diet does not require you to count calories, carbohydrates or fat grams. In

a short amount of time, most everyone following a diet that restricts any one food

group ultimately leads to binge eating, disappointment and tacking on extra pounds. If

you eliminate or restrict carbohydrates, fats or proteins, sooner or later you will be

binging on the food group you boycotted. That is why my anti-inflammatory diet does

not discourage you from eating carbs, fats or proteins. However, if you eat the wrong

carbs, fats or proteins your body will be riddled with inflammation.

According to all health experts both in conventional and natural medicine,

inflammation is the number one cause of chronic health problems, including digestive

illness. The good news is, in less than one week on my proven Anti-Inflammatory Diet

you will reduce chronic inflammation and notice a significant difference in how you feel.

In less than 3 months on my program you will lose weight without counting carbs or fat

grams and feel 10 years younger. Stop getting fooled by every new diet that comes

across your desk. Get a personalized prescription health and become independently

healthy. Get Tested and let us customize a diet based on your blood test results.

Remember We Don’t Guess, We Test.

Stop guessing which foods you should eat to feel good--get the blood test I have used to

help thousands of people feel good again. People who were suffering with digestive

symptoms and other chronic health problems for years. Yet after they identified and

eliminated the foods that were not right for them, they’re boating, gas, diarrhea ,

constipation, colitis, and other digestive issues were to history. Most people know that

foods can irritate their digestive problems. They may even recognize that specific foods

flare up their symptoms or make them worse. they may stay away from specific foods

because they know when they eat them they feel worse. The problem is they’re only

guessing. In my clinic we have a motto we live by, “We don’t Guess, We Test.”

2.) Restore the Integrity of the Gut A.) Repair the lining of the gut B.) Replenish the

good bacteria C.) Kick out the bad micro-organisms. Restoring the health of gut is the

key to good health and a lifetime of wellness. Taking probiotics and eating healthy can

make a difference and will often make your symptoms better. However, most of the

time even after taking the probiotics and eating a healthier diet the digestive problems

never go away completely. Guessing which probiotics is like throwing darts in the dark

to hit a target. You may get

some relief of your digestive problems after taking probiotics but more than likely you

will still continue to suffer needlessly. That’s why in our clinic We Don’t Guess, We Test.

The specific stool test we routinely use to help our patients overcome digestive illness

saves people from years of suffering. If you want to feel good again, Don’t Guess-You

Need to Test.

3.) Follow My Anti-Inflammatory Diet My delicious meal plan is based on the diet and

lifestyles of the healthiest people in the world. My Anti-Inflammatory does not require

you to count calories, carbohydrates or fat grams. Following a diet that restricts any

food group is only going to lead to binge eating and disappointment in the long run. If

you eliminate any of the food groups, eventually you are going to give in and you’ll be

disappointed and frustrated. Inflammation is the number one cause of most chronic

health problems, including digestive illness. In less than one week on my special Anti-

Inflammatory Diet you will notice a significant difference in how you feel. In less than 3

months on my meal plan you will lose weight (if necessary) without trying and feel 10

years younger. Stop getting sucked into every new diet that comes across your desk. Get

Tested and let us customize a diet based on your blood test results. Remember We

Don’t Guess, We Test.

If you a chronic digestive illness, you need to stop guessing what to eat and how

to treat your problem. The Comprehensive Stool Analysis CDSA test and the E.L.I.S.A.

delayed food allergy blood test we routinely use to help our patients will take the guess

work out of finding the cause of your digestive problem. The detailed information

provided by these two tests will enable me to design a customized diet and supplement

program to eliminate your digestive problems once and for all.

If you have suffered with digestive problems for several years, more than likely

your gut bacteria and other factors in the gut are not in balance. Consequently: the ratio

between your good and bad bacteria may be imbalanced; you may have a yeast

overgrowth, parasites, etc.; you may have inadequate levels of digestive enzymes, SCF’s

(the fuel that runs the gut) or an imbalance of any of the other markers detected in this

test. In my professional opinion, anyone who has suffered with chronic digestive

problems needs to be evaluated with this test.

The Comprehensive Digestive Stool Analysis CDSA test includes a detailed, 5-page

report and analysis of the chemistry and physiology of the colon. This test is not

normally done by conventional physicians or hospitals. Even if you have had a

conventional stool test or colonoscopy and it came back normal, the CDSA can reveal

important markers in the stool that can cure and prevent disease. This 5-page diagnostic

report is a critical tool to help optimize digestion, absorption and elimination. As I

explained earlier, poor digestive function can lead to a weakened immune system,

nutritional deficiencies, autoimmune diseases, mental and emotional disorders and

more.

The second test that will solve the riddle of complicated stomach problems is the

E.L.I.S.A. delayed food allergy blood test. This test is not the same as a skin scratch test

or a typical blood test performed by an allergy doctor. Both of those tests identify

immediate allergic reactions. Most people can identify this type of food allergy on their

own. Immediate allergy reactions are rare (less than 1% of the population) and occur

quickly, usually within minutes and up to one hour after eating the offending food.

Delayed food allergies are more common. Some experts say up to 75% of

doctor’s visits, especially visits for stomach problem, are caused by these. Delayed food

allergy reactions occur anywhere from three hours up to three days after eating the

offending food. One of the side benefits of eliminating delayed food allergies is weight

loss. I have observed thousands of times, as soon as I identify the hidden food allergies

and personalize the individual’s diet, they shed unwanted pounds. The good news is

once we identify the foods that are not right for your body, you only have to eliminate

them from your diet for three months. After three months I guide you on how to

reintroduce these foods into your diet without stirring up any of your old symptoms.

IgG food allergies are common but much less known than their counterpart, IgE

or immediate response allergic reaction. Let me give you a brief explanation of both

immediate and delayed food allergies. First immediate food allergies. According to the

conventional medical community less than 1% of the population has immediate food

allergies. Minutes after the offending food is consumed the stomach is raging with an

allergic reaction. Very quickly, usually within minutes, the individual suffering from an

immediate reaction will suddenly experience hives on their skin or itchy and watery

eyes. Some individuals with an IgE food allergy can develop inflammation in their

airways that can lead to a life-threatening emergency.

Delayed food allergies are not as clear cut and obvious. IgG food allergies are

insidious and much more difficult to detect. Minutes after the offending food reaches

the stomach nothing happens. In fact, it may take one, two or up to three days or more

before any symptoms appear. It is difficult and almost impossible to detect which foods

you may have delayed reactions too. Fortunately, there is a simple blood test that can

quickly and easily identify the foods that are right for you.
