  • How to manage and treat the cycles of your disease, including flare-ups, using entirely natural methods.
  • How to become and remain drug and surgery-free
  • How to transform pain and control your bowels – no more embarrassing accidents
  • How to get in touch with your body’s unique needs and take control of your healing process – resulting in greater peace and confidence
Who is Jini Patel Thompson?Jini is a health writer and consumer health advocate who healed herself of widespread Crohn’s Disease (small intestine & large intestine). She has remained drug and surgery-free for over 18 years.

Jini is a recognized expert on natural healing for digestive diseases and has been featured on numerous popular radio shows like The Deborah Ray Show (syndicated to 76 different U.S. cities) and TV shows like Your Health Matters with Doug Kaufman (syndicated to 113 different U.S. cities).

Her articles on natural healing have been published in journals and magazines in the US, UK, and Australia. Her DVD on healing colic in babies was recommended in the number one parenting magazine in the U.S. (Parents magazine, March 2006). And her books on digestive health have sold over 9000 copies via the Internet alone.
What exactly is in the book/program?In a nutshell, this program (book & CD-Rom) has EVERYTHING you need to heal your Crohn’s, colitis (in all its varying forms), or irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). It gives you the complete tools you need to heal all the underlying conditions and causes of these diseases, like:
  • Your damaged mucosal lining (ulcers, fissures, pus, bleeding, pain, leaky gut, etc.)
  • Your existing, or ongoing infection in your gut and all the consequences of this; diarrhea, constipation, strictures, fistulas, acid reflux, pain, spasming, etc.
  • Your lack of a good, protective bacterial flora
  • Your systemic damage due to prescription drug use (endocrine/hormonal system, immune system, nervous system, etc.)
  • Your inability to properly digest or absorb nutrients from food
  • Your emotional trauma or wounding being carried in the cells and tissues of your gut.
  • Your ongoing stress and emotional events that continue to produce harmful biochemical reactions in the gut (neurogastroenterology).
Herbal RemediesListen To Your Gut contains all the herbal remedies you need (and Jini tells you exactly which brand and in which form to buy) to heal all your symptoms. There are herbal supplements to heal the causative, underlying condition (which can take time) as well as supplements to provide quick relief from immediate symptoms. Diarrhea provides a good example of this:

e.g. Diarrhea

In order to get your diarrhea under control and lessen bowel movements, Jini prescribes effective supplements like L-Glutamine, Bentonite Clay or Psyllium powder – and tells you exactly which form to buy them in and how to use them.

However, while these supplements will provide immediate relief, they will not heal the underlying cause of diarrhea. To heal the root cause of diarrhea, Jini first prescribes Jini’s Wild Oregano Oil Protocol to clear the pathogens from the gut (yeast/Candida, bad bacteria, parasites), then oral probiotic supplementation (in powder form – capsules are not effective, because the transit time through the digestive tract is too quick) and Jini’s Probiotic Retention Enema to implant a large dose of probiotics directly to the colon.

But again, all of these supplements have to be the correct species and subspecies, in the correct form, and taken in a gradual manner. The schedule and way in which you take these supplements is just as important – to avoid overwhelming the gut and triggering unpleasant consequences like the Herxheimer Reaction (also known as the “die-off effect”).
Healing DietsListen To Your Gut also contains all the dietary guidelines and restrictions you need to avoid triggering unpleasant symptoms (like gas, bloating, pain, diarrhea, etc). There is a series of Healing Diets that you follow according to which symptoms you currently have. Then, as you begin to heal yourself, and symptoms resolve, you move up to the next, more lenient Diet, and so on, until you are completely healed and can eat pretty much anything! Of course, no one should eat things like processed foods, msg, nitrates, artificial flavors, sweeteners, colors or preservatives, etc.
Mind/Body TherapiesListen To Your Gut covers all of the emotional and bodywork tools you can use to heal yourself holistically. Jini has probably tried just about every therapy modality in existence, but she only presents you with the ones that work effectively. These therapies will help you heal things ranging from intestinal adhesions to the abdominal wall, to insomnia.
Detoxing Your Lifestyle & EnvironmentJini takes you through your entire home and day-to-day life and teaches you what is toxic and compromising your health, and how to get rid of it, or replace it with non-toxic alternatives. Checklists and step-by-step instructions make this easy to do.
Drugs, Surgery & Your DoctorListen To Your Gut also provides detailed guidelines for weaning off prescription drugs. How to assess whether a surgical procedure is really necessary – or are there natural alternatives you can try first? It also covers testing and exploratory procedures (like colonoscopies) – when are they really necessary, and how you can protect yourself before, during, and after to minimize damage and adverse effects.
Pregnancy & Women’s Chapter Jini (who has 3 children herself) provides special guidelines for pregnant woman with Crohn’s, IBS, or colitis, or, women who would like to become pregnant and create healthy babies. Other issues specific to women like non-toxic menstrual products and safe, non-toxic birth control methods are also discussed. For both men and women, Jini talks about the particular stressors of parenting infants/toddlers and how people with already burdened immune systems can protect themselves and safeguard their health during this wondrous, but stressful time.
Everything has been extensively trial-testedAnother reason this program is worth its weight in gold is because Jini has tested all of these supplements and protocols on herself first, and then they have been tested by over 7,000 people as well! The first edition of Listen To Your Gut was published in 2000, so Jini has since received over a thousand emails from readers with their detailed feedback.

You can rest assured that any treatment protocols in Listen To Your Gut have been extensively tested by thousands of people with colitis, irritable bowel syndrome and Crohn’s disease.

Jini understands firsthand how incredibly sensitized people’s bodies become when they have IBS or IBD and how so many things that work perfectly well for other people, can trigger a flare in someone with Crohn’s, colitis or IBS. This is why, even if you’ve received treatment from a naturopathic doctor, or a Chinese Medicine doctor, you may not have had good results.

Two different ways to use Listen To Your GutDepending on your needs and your preference, you can either use Listen To Your Gut as a detailed, thorough, step-by-step, comprehensive healing program. Or you can just pick and choose different herbal supplements to address one or two symptoms at a time, whilst using the Healing Diet guidelines for that symptom profile.

You don’t even need an official diagnosis to successfully use Listen To Your Gut, since all the treatments and protocols are based on symptoms.
Why is this book worth $79?Because, this is not just a book, it is a complete healing program along with charts, workbook, self-tests, food diary, etc. all on a CD-Rom. So you have to think of it like a college textbook, or an instruction manual for an advanced computer program. Once people get a look at it (and feel its weight!), we’ve had them ask, “Is this a textbook for doctors only?” Do a search on Amazon to compare prices of college or technical textbooks and you’ll soon see that Listen To Your Gut is reasonably priced.
Click here to see what readers themselves have to say about whether Listen To Your Gut is worth the price…
I know the price seems discouraging, but it is the equivalent to a college level text book in content. And compare that to all the money I've wasted searching for other options. The price of the book was small compared to the improvement in my health! Well worth it. Offering a money back guarantee should help people feel they can buy it. Because once I show someone that book I can't get it back!
- Kami N,California,USA
By the way, our return rate on Listen To Your Gut has remained less than 1% since its publication – that alone tells you whether people feel the book/program is worth the price. But so you’re really clear, you need to know we offer a:
365 Day, No-questions-asked Money Back Guarantee
This gives you plenty of time to read through and try the protocols and therapies in Listen To Your Gut, at no financial risk. We offer such an unlimited guarantee because we know so many of you have already tried so many things that didn’t work – and we don’t want you to be afraid that this is just one more disappointment.

Just wanted to pass on to you my thank you's for your program and the help I received from it. It is by far the best book I have read for my symptoms of IBS, Diverticulitis, and Lactose Intolerance. I followed many of your suggestions and within 3 weeks the pain is gone, the burning has eased, the nausea has subsided and the dreadful diarrhea has stopped!! Keep up the good work!
- Debbie F., Arizona, USA
 
My daughter was diagnosed with Crohn's Disease a few years ago. After a terrible scare with Remicade I searched the internet for other solutions and found you! We have tried many of the suggestions in your book and carry it around for easy reference all the time. Recently she experienced another blockage and we decided to try your natural methods at home (no hospital) using no pain meds or prednisone… she made it through after five days! Yeah!!! As a parent I know you understand the love you have for a child and the pain you experience when they are so ill. I truly feel that your information saved her life. I can't thank you enough! She is now 22 about to graduate from college in December and planning to be married soon! Just not too long ago we thought those things weren't possible. I forward your website to people all the time!

No one can be less satisfied with conventional medical treatment for these complaints that the medical profession itself. Patel Thompson gives excellent dietary advice and the clearest message from Listen To Your Gut is that one should cease to be a victim of illness and make a determined effort to take charge of one’s fate and welfare.
- Dr. David Bamford (MD), Gloucestershire, U.K.
 
I come from Slovakia and my problems started 7 years ago after stressful period of my life. At the beginning I had only mild inflammation, and after colonoscopy was diagnosed with proctitis. As I had problems with constipation, my stools were often bloody. Than I ordered Jini's LTYG book. This book is full of useful information one can find nowhere else, I have to admit I did not expect such a complete healing program. After couple of weeks I lost all the symptoms and slowly started with less strict diet according to the book. Since last November I am like normal healthy person again. What I find as most important is the fact that in the case the symptoms reappear I know exactly what to do.
- Maria N. California, USA
 
I was told I would need to take pills for the rest of my life and now I take none! The initial diet was quite strict however, I now have quite a regular, normal diet and consume small portions of alcohol. Obviously this is a fantastic situation from the prospect of being told I would need to take pills for the rest of my life to where I take none. Many thanks for the advice in your program.
- Max R., Dublin, Ireland
 
I've gained weight, my cramping has just about completely subsided and my stools are formed and normal! Your program was extremely helpful and supportive when others (including my doctor) could not be. The more I talk about IBD the more I realize that so many folks have to deal with it. At this point I am doing well. I am off Entocort and am up to 123lbs. My cramping has just about completely subsided and my stools are formed and occur about 2 to 3 times/day. Thanks again!
- Erin B., Vermont, USA
 
My doctor had never seen anyone getting better from Crohn's and he was very surprised! I followed many of your diets, and after just a few months I began feeling better. A year later I went for another Colonoscopy, and the doctor could not find anything wrong with my small intestine. My illness really took away my energy, and I could not do the activities I loved. But now I am my old self and enjoy running, skiing etc. I hope you are feeling well too, and once again thank you!"
- Kjersti W., Oslo, Norway
 
Conventional medical therapies aren’t for everyone, Listen To Your Gut is an excellent tool and resource guide for people looking for viable alternatives.
- Dr. David Wang (ND) Vancouver, Canada
 
“Almost immediately my husband and I noticed a change in our son. I can't thank you enough! The program is fantastic! My 14 year old son takes all of the supplements willingly because he has noticed the change also. I carry the book with me and refer to it all the time. Again, I really can't thank you enough for the change in my son - if we listened to the doctors and did no homework on our own, I am convinced he would still be curled up on the couch popping his megadoses of pills. Thank you, thank you, thank you! I tell everybody about you."
- C.D., Pennsylvania, USA
 
"Two years ago I bought Jini Patel Thompson's book/program, LISTEN TO YOUR GUT, and this program helped me a lot to change my life and heal myself. This program was and is a big inspiration, in taking control of my sickness, not being a victim, but helping myself and my body to heal. The result of this program was that I weaned off my Immuran. I have been eating fairly normal now for the last 1.5 years (still careful with milk products and try to eat as natural as possible). My hair and skin look very healthy again, I follow salsa lessons and sport every week. And I made a mindset: I am in charge now, I am more fine tuned with my body. Of course I talk with my doctor, but not to ask him how I am, I tell him how I am! And that's nice....I hope I told this clearly, I could go on and on."
- Miranda M., Amsterdam, Netherlands
 
"Over the 10 years I have had IBD the flare-ups were very debilitating. By changing my lifestyle and diet I have improved significantly. The original thought of doing without medication after almost 10 years of constantly taking drugs was a scary prospect, and it has helped me a lot to have your book/program. So far I have been pleased and hope to continue as I have been. My last flare-up was short (3 months or so) and I did not lose any weight. I was able to still go to the gym (although not as frequently). A far cry from 5 years ago when I had to take two naps a day, lost 25 pounds and took 9 to 12 months from first symptom to resumption of "normal" activity levels."
- Paul R., New Hampshire, USA
 
“I have never felt better, and I just find it hard to believe I even have UC. I refuse to have another colonoscopy either. I want to THANK YOU for giving me HOPE and especially for your program which has changed my life and got me back to the way I used to be. I can't thank you enough. You are the kind of person they talk about when they say there are angels on this earth among us. Forever grateful ”
- D. E., Pennsylvania, USA
 
“I feel great and am not experiencing any symptoms. At particularly stressful times, such as exams, my symptoms can return but I'm learning how to cope with that. I'd like to thank Jini for helping me realise that in order to feel better I had to change not only my diet but also my lifestyle and the way I thought of my IBS. Thanks again Jini."
- Lisa D., Edinburgh, Scotland
 
“I loved your program. I feel like it gave me my life back!”
- Deb G., Ohio, USA
 
"Jini's program 'Listen to Your Gut' helped me a great deal. I have put on weight and feel better than I have in years. This better feeling is also a cleaner one because I am weaning myself off the drugs as I continue on the shake diet. There has been a sea change in my stomach since four weeks ago when I was on the verge of another flare. What I am most grateful for is knowing that there is another avenue to maintain health and stem flares rather than steroids.”
- L.R., California, USA
 
“Your program is the primary reason my UC is in remission and I am also feeling the best I have ever felt. That is due to following many of your tips on diet. One significant change I made as per your book was to eliminate vinegar from my diet. Unbelievable! Everyone who has Crohn's or UC will have a food that is a flash point - mine I believe was vinegar. I also followed many of the other steps. Great book/program - I refer to it often. I also recently finished 5 months of acupuncture. 3 days a week, 40 minute sessions. Never felt better!"
- Tom C., Ontario, Canada
