Flip side to popular assumption, liposuction can make your undesirable fat disappear just like that. Undergoing plastic surgery makeover can be an ideal option for many. Of course, that does not mean that if your body is not where you want it to be that there is no hope for you. Your best bet is to gain more awareness through research.

Is there really a legit way to prevent hangovers? I don’t think so.

The rest of the story: We took our daughter off all foods to which her system "severely" reacted, started her on a morning smoothie of soymilk (I just changed to one without carageenan, a known intestinal irritant), rice milk, coconut milk, a multi-vitmain etc etc. and she ate as much of the non-offending foods as possible. She now weighs 105 lbs., is full of energy, and, best of all, the IBD specialist confirmed that "nutritional therapy appears to have put her Crohn's into remission" and she "does not need any steroids (etc) at this time" Better yet, her "eating doctor" (our at-home colloquialism for her), is optimistic that the intestinal wall will heal even more. So, in answer to your question, nutritional, alternative therapies DO held relieve the symptoms of Crohn's. I should note that she is taking a very small dose of anti-anxiety medication — from my reading, 65% of people with Crohn's have anxiety issues — and that has helped also. Blessings Be.

Sorry, my post was "too long," so I had to break it in two and now the second half needs to be approved.

We took her off all foods for which she showed a "severe" reaction (eggs, dairy; the test was for 90 foods). I started her on a morning smoothie with rice protein powder, coconut milk, soymilk (I just recently started using soymilk without carageenan, a known intestinal irritant), flax oil, a powdered multi-vitamin, etc etc. She also started on a very low dose of anti-anxiety (I've read that 65% of people diagnosed with Crohn's also have anxiety). She now weighs 105 pounds, has grown 4 inches, and, best of all, the local IBD specialist has agreed that "nutritional therapy has successfully placed her into remission" and her "eating doctor" even anticipates a full healing of her colon by next year (fingers crossed). So, in answer to your question, YES! It is possible to treat Crohn's without steroids, etc. It requires a fine mix of MDs who are willing to look outside the box, ardent advocates for alternative ways to approach it and lots of research. Many blessings to all of you.

Our 14-year-old daughter was diagnosed with Crohn's this last summer. Had we received the diagnosis a year ago, we, too, likely would have gone the medical route, mostly b/c we felt desperate. At that time, she weighed 60 lbs and didn't have the energy to walk to the car to go to school (and, of course, every MD we saw told her she was anorexic b/c she was a high-achieving, skinny, girl; that really made her mad!). One year ago, her wonderful "eating doctor" (who confirmed it was not anorexia), credited the food "allergy" tests (some MDs call them "food intolerances") we'd gotten from an alternative MD we'd seen.

Thanks for this article; my sister-n-law was recently diagnosed and struggling. I'll pass this along.

Thank you for posting this, as it is very timely for my family – my sister has just been diagnosed with Crohn's.
