Has anyone read this or tried her diet? What kind of probiotics did you use? TIA

I haven't read the book but I use Dr. Ohhira's probiotics, recommended by several women on the forums and approved by my doctor. Great stuff!

Yes, I get them from Amazon as they generally have the best prices. I've used both the regular and professional (I think that is what they are called) and both worked well. We started off with the professional and after a few months, transitioned to the regular strength for maintenance. The professional are for more serious issues which we don't really have but wanted to really lay down a good foundation, if that makes sense, lol. Although we don't get sick very often normally, we both have noticed that we tend to not get sick as much as everyone else around us, even when people have been sick out our house for days. I attribute it to using the probiotics.

Are you supposed to take her probiotics? Has anyone finished the book? Would you recommend buying it? I have so many diet books that have been a waste of money so I am hesitant to buy another one. I can't get any help from doctors so I am wading thru the gambit and hopefully I will hit the right one and start to loose weight. Right now I am walking 3 miles a day, eating healthy as all get out. I haven't lot a pound, not gaining either. But I need to loose 20 pounds to be on target for my height. soooooo depressing!!!!!!

Don't be depressed; I've got to loose about 140 and most of mine is pure inflammation! I've got a low thyroid and have a very difficult time loosing weight, but I can loose and gain 10-15 pounds in a few days and back and forth just with inflammation and my flaring fibro!

I think this book is worth reading for you both! It is really interesting. It tells the science behind everything. (I took a lot of antibiotics when I was young, so im thinking i may need my gut fixed.) It also looks like an easy plan to follow .

I had been looking for a new probiotic, and not as well-informed as many are.

I happened to purchase, Renew Life Ultimate Flora RTS Critical Care 50 Billion 30 Vegetable Capsules.

I recorded the PBS show with Brenda Watson, scanned through, then saw this thread, looked at the box I just got and saw her face on it. Renew Life must be her brand, again new at this, and will look at Dr Ohhira’s products recommended above.

I'm new at this too, still reading her book. I had seen her on pbs a long time ago, is she on again? How do you like her probiotics?

I read her book. I find her to be very informative. I use her Skinny Gut protein powder, enzymes, probiotics and omegas. I guess I trust her products. There are so many choices out there it's hard to know but I will say I feel better on her products. I have not lost any weight because I didn't follow her diet plus I have graves disease and no thyroid or very little left. She just makes sense to me.

I just read your response and depending on your area, I believe she is on twice this Sunday the 8th with Skinny Gut on PBS early morning and evening. The show I recorded was on February 28.

Maybe check with PBS http://www.pbs.org/search/?q=brenda%20watson ....if you can find information for your area. Clocks go ahead this weekend, I hope this site can help.

I have only just started with her probiotics, I sort of feel cleaner, but it is still early.

Gosh now I may have to get her book, prior to her probiotic I had tried some OTC brand and I just did not think it was going to do the job for me, my gut instinct he he. I have yet to check out the Dr Ohhira line.

I know there is yogurt, I have Kimchi, pickles (refrigerated) and sauerkraut all that help.

I do not have digestive issues, I eat very well and this is for me is one more avenue to live really well.

happy gut live culture to all

....sounds like pseudo science, quakery to me. First you buy the book then you buy all her "products" and whatever results you get are totally subjective.

Thanks for sharing your experience with Skinny Gut, I feel the same about trusting her products at this time, and it was just easier for me.

I am glad you are feeling better and I hope that continues for you.
