Developmental Influences On Medically Unexplained Symptoms
Medically unexplained (functional) symptoms (MUS) are described as ‘physical symptoms that prompt the sufferer to seek healthcare but remain unexplained after an appropriate evaluation. They may affect as many as one third of people seeking medical care. In a provocative article, Tony Buffington of Columbus, Ohio suggests that BPS/IC and feline interstitial cystitis may be manifestations of MUS, and categorizing these conditions in that way may explain many findings that have been difficult to account for.

That was a nice read
After over 20 years of suffering with autoimmune problems and Irritable Bowel Syndrome, I was finally diagnosed with Celiac disease a couple of years ago. The long-term damage to my system was so pronounced that I have also developed allergies to casein and nuts. Needless to say, I’ve been desperate to find something that will help me “normalize” my system (to the greatest extent it can be), and cleanse it as well.
The Dr Max Powers 15 Day Cleanse was EXACTLY what I was looking for. Excellent, effective, and allergen-free. Two-a-day along with an allergen-free diet and my IBS is a thing of the past. Best of all–no prescription medication needed now! The price is pretty great, too.
