Tamara Duker Freuman, a highly trained and sought-after nutritionist, knows something many doctors don’t: every unhappy belly is unhappy in its own way. That’s why Tamara’s clients call her “The Bloated Belly Whisperer,” and for good reason - for many years she’s successfully helped her clients accurately describe their symptoms and find a course of treatment that delivers rapid and lasting relief.
In this book, Tamara guides readers through the same steps she would use in a consultation, first with a quiz to help them hone in on their specific symptoms, and then by discussing the latest research and patient stories to offer dozens of solutions that will reduce abdominal bloating in a week or less by:
· Helping identify the specific cause of bloating
· Equipping readers with the right terminology and questions to take to their next doctor’s visit
· Teaching the most effective dietary remedies for each particular brand of bloating
· Laying out the tools and healthy practices to end abdominal distress and bloating once and for all
I've long had problems with my belly, so I picked this one up to get tips about how to straighten everything out. I liked how the book was laid out, with the first few chapters outlining information on stomach problems and then a quiz to help you narrow down your issues and the rest of the chapters meant for the reader to browse according to what their specific problems were. I felt a lot of the tips and information were general in nature but there was a lot of information provided. A lot of it tended to lean towards Paleo, something I haven't tried but I found a lot I could incorporate into my diet. It's a good resource for fellow belly sufferers and definitely recommended.
