A staggering one in four women suffers some kind of gastrointestinal disorder. Some conditions, like irritable bowel syndrome, afflict more than twice as many women as men. Yet all too often, women... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I am a retired nurse and I thought this book was very well written, covered many areas of digestive problems, was easy to understand at all levels, and gave very good solutions.The author had a good sense of humor while dealing with some delicate female subjects. I would recommend this to anyone that has digestive problems.
Fantastic!

Dr. Yoshida has taken a complicated subject, and rendered it into terms the average lay person can understand. Her no-nonsense solutions make sense and can be applied by everyone, male and female. The book is an outstanding contribution to the field of gastroenterology. I look forward to more books by this expert.
Informative and Helpful

I picked up this book because of Yoshida's qualifications, research and dedication to women's health issues. No book can replace a visit to your doctor, but this book helped me to understand my some of my tummy problems a little more. Yoshida looks great on the cover and if she is the result of her endorsement for a well-balanced lifestyle...then more power to her and the words she shares with us. I hope she continues her research and continues to write and share her findings with us.
Helpful book loaded with lots of good info!

I absolutely loved this book! I've been looking for information to help me to understand many of the digestive problems that I've experienced. Women ARE different than men...especially on the insides. This book clearly explains some of the causes and brings forth solutions to help you avoid some of the not so comfortable problems. This not only helped me to understand the inner me and what's potentially going on in there, but also helped me to be more prepared for my next doctor's visit. I like Dr. Yoshida's whole approach to patient care and especially for her genuine focus on women and their well-being.

This book is what every woman should know about their insides. A "must-have" to refer to at every stage of a woman's life. Yoshida explained complicated biological processes into easy to understand terms and helped me to get to know my body in a whole new level.
