Buyer beware.
I have suffered with Crohn's disease for the last 15 years. I have been on many medications and finally four years ago, underwent a re sectioning surgery of my intestine. This probably saved my life, but I have continued to have severe symptoms and bouts with Crohn's.
Earlier this year, my symptoms worsened to the point that many days I could not work and would spend hours in the restroom. I became desperate to find a solution that did not involve another surgery or starting again on hardcore drugs with serious side effects.
After reading numerous testimonials about NingXia Red juice success in helping overall inflammation levels in the body, I felt optimistic and ordered a Premium Starter Kit and a month's supply of NingXia Red.
For the first two weeks, I decided the only thing I would do differently would be to start drinking NingXia Red. I started drinking two ounces in the morning and two ounces at night.
As crazy as this sounds, at the end of day two I had already gone from visiting the restroom 22 to 24 times a day down to only 10 to 12 times per day.
At the end of day five, I was only visiting the restroom about 6 times a day. I was in complete disbelief.
I was also experiencing detox symptoms during the first five days, such as body aches, sinus drainage, etc. But I understood that the NingXia Red was assisting with the removal of so many toxins; and many of my candida symptoms started decreasing too!
I was so elated by my improvement that I started adding the DiGize oil blend and Copaiba in capsules every night. I would add four drops of each to a capsule with a carrier oil, and for the first time in years I was not getting sick in the middle of the night and could sleep.
I have continued this regimen of 4 ounces of NingXia Red a day and a capsule every night of DiGize and Copaiba. I cannot believe how great I feel... better than I have in years!
I also carry DiGize and Peppermint essential oils with me during the day so that, if I feel sick at all, I am able to rub a drop of DiGize over my abdomen and then a drop of Peppermint over that. Peppermint seems to drive the DiGize in and also helps with the strong scent of DiGize.
I am so appreciative and happy that I have improved so drastically and have done it all naturally!

| 1. | Associated topics: candida — "As proven in vitro, essential oils [Eucalyptus, Melaleuca Alternifolia, Thyme, Lavender, Lemon, Lemongrass, Cinnamon, Grapefruit, Clove, Sandalwood, Peppermint, Sage] represent a cheap and effective antiseptic topical treatment option even for antibiotic-resistant strains [such] as MRSA and antimycotic [antifungal]-resistant Candida species." | Link |
| 2. | Associated topics: colon-/-gut-/-intestines-/-bowels — "Lavender, mint [peppermint], orange, rose, chamomile, rosemary, and sage were used.... Depression levels in the touch-music-aroma therapy group... showed a larger decrease than in the... control groups [that did not include aromatherapy].... [FMS] symptoms such as restless sleep, headache, morning fatigue, exhaustion, feeling like crying, and bowel complaints were also significantly reduced." | Link |
| 3. | Associated topics: crohn's-disease,colon-/-gut-/-intestines-/-bowels — "Peppermint oil is harmless and acts locally to inhibit GI [gastrointestinal] smooth muscle contraction.... Peppermint oil solution administered intraluminally can be used as an antispasmodic agent with superior efficacy and fewer side effects than hyoscine-N-butylbromide...." | Link |
| 4. | Associated topics: crohn's-disease,colon-/-gut-/-intestines-/-bowels — "A 4 weeks treatment with peppermint oil improves abdominal symptoms in patients with irritable bowel syndrome.... The symptoms evaluated were: abdominal bloating, abdominal pain or discomfort, diarrhea, constipation, feeling of incomplete evacuation, pain at defecation, passage of gas or mucus, and urgency at defecation." | Link |
| 5. | Associated topics: colon-/-gut-/-intestines-/-bowels — "In traditional folk medicine, tarragon [Artemisia dracunculus L. (Asteraceae)] has been used for treatment of pain and gastrointestinal disturbances.... This study reported the peripheral and central antinociceptive activity of the EOAD [essential oil of A. dracunculus] and rationalized the traditional use of the plant in the treatment of different painful conditions." | Link |
| 6. | Associated topics: crohn's-disease,colon-/-gut-/-intestines-/-bowels — "Anti-inflammatory, spasmolytic [muscle spasms], antimicrobial, antioxidant, carminative [flatulence] and immunomodulatory properties of caraway suggest that it might exert beneficial effects on inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).... CHE and CEO [caraway essential oil] at all doses tested were effective in reducing colon tissue lesions and colitis indices and the efficacy was nearly the same when different doses of plant fractions were administered p.o. or i.p..... These data suggest that caraway fractions are both effective and possess anti-colitic activity irrespective of the dose and route of administration." | Link |
| 7. | Associated topics: crohn's-disease,colon-/-gut-/-intestines-/-bowels — "Phytogenic compounds with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties are currently discussed as promising complementary agents in prevention and treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).

We conclude that the phytogenic additives tested have a promising anti-inflammatory potential in vivo and a particular role in the prevention of IBD." | Link |
| 8. | Associated topics: colon-/-gut-/-intestines-/-bowels — "Fennel seed oil has been shown to reduce intestinal spasms and increase motility of the small intestine.... Our study suggests that fennel seed oil emulsion is superior to placebo in decreasing intensity of infantile colic." | Link |
