There are many sites on the internet offering everything you need for a healthier approach to IBD. Be it supplements, books or anti-anxiety meditation guides. However, it’s really rare to find this all in one place. That’s where Crohns.net comes in.
Crohns.net offers everything you could ever need for IBS, IBD and leaky gut syndrome. While there’s the basic gut health supplements (such as Slippery Elm and L-Glutamine) it also offers rarer finds only avaliable in the US- such as paperback copies of ‘Breaking the vicious cycle.’ Although based in America, crohns.net also offers delivery to all around the world. I’ve picked six products that are definitely worth checking out. If you’re struggling with where to start, you might also want to read up on their crohn’s and colitis programme.
- If you’re thinking of checking out SCD or just want to learn more about the gut, I’d highly recommend giving ‘Breaking the Vicious Cycle‘ a read. A bit of a cult classic, it’s quite tricky to track down in the UK so it’s definitely worth seeing if you can order it from the US.
- Garden of Life’s FYI is a multi-combination anti-inflammatory. I’ve never seen products such as turmeric and cats claw combined into one supplement so if you are looking for an easy way to get your anti-inflammatories in then this it!
- Glutagenics is a super-strength L-Glutamine supplement.
- The site also offers stool analysis tests. While these absolutely can’t replace tests by your medical professionals, they seem to be able to find all sorts of useful things like enzymes, parasites and even CRP (which doctors often use as an IBD marker) It could definitely be worth given this a go if you are wanting a general overview of your gut health.
- VSL#3 has a cult following as one of the few proven probiotics.
- I love Slippery Elm so will always recommend it. This is 100% pure powder which is much more effective than taking the capsules.
I’d love to know if you’ve ever tried any of the above and what your thoughts are on digestive health supplements in general.
A quick disclaimer: Obviously, I would not recommend the above replacing any tests or advice of your doctor. But this site does offer all sorts of digestive products in one place, which is a great help if you are suffering with IBS, IBD or just general gut issues.
A second even quicker disclaimer! This is a sponsored post but I selected the products I found interesting and made my own recommendations. All opinions are my own.
I have been struggling with suspected IBD for several months. I have been waiting for a gastro appointment for 10 weeks, and so have had no medical advice or intervention. I was in severe pain every day, and feeling completely miserable and depressed. I happened upon this post by chance and ordered Breaking the Vicious Cycle, as I’d never heard of SCD. I am a scientist and am naturally very sceptical of magical diets that claim to change your life, but I was desperate. I’ve been on SCD for a week and I already feel my life has changed. For the last 4 days I have only sporadically experienced very low levels of pain, I’ve bee able to sleep, and can feel my energy and personality returning. I’d just like to thank you for posting it here!
