Dr. David Dahlman of the Hyde Park Holistic Center in Cincinnati, Ohio found his patient population has responded favorably, with most reporting a complete cessation of IBS symptoms after Dr. Dahlman's treatment investigated these nine separate variables as possible causes: re-establishment of beneficial gastrointestinal bacterial levels, identification of pathogenic levels of abnormal bacteria, yeast or parasites, restoration of normal gastrointestinal chemistry, restoration of normal digestive enzyme levels especially after gall bladder surgery, patient specific IBS diet identifying intolerances to dairy, fructose or gluten, the diagnosis of celiac disease and detection of possible delayed-sensitivity food allergies.
Though each variable is well known for affecting healthy gastrointestinal function, it is the step-by-step process that Dr. Dahlman has pioneered and designed into an easy to follow protocol to help each patient determine which of these variables are responsible for the Irritable Bowel Syndrome symptoms they are experiencing.
