I agree with other reviewers that you must sift through some pseudo-science, and it could definitely use an easier user friendly format. However if you are on the road to understanding gut health, bacteria and how diet can help or harm that ecosystem.... then this should be in your artillery. Donna Gates has years of study & credentials under her belt and the foundation of her practice starts with treating mom's during pregnancy. This is the core area to really help the population and prevent infants from suffering just after being born. Many adults who now suffer, are in in this situation because their gut was suffering for years and years (likely since birth after eating rice cereal & being given antibiotics/vaccinated too early) before the symptoms showed up. So, just like every book out there...you should not believe or practice 100% of what any book tells you. Using common sense and doing research will show you where Donna is on point. And those points are at the foundation of gut health. She knows what she's talking about when it comes to gut flora. Also, she is releasing a cookbook soon and I intend to own that as well.

I use this to heal cold sores, to keep scrapes and cuts clean, and my husband uses it as an antifungal ointment for his feet. I have used a few different brands in the past, and I feel that this one is very good quality and I would purchase it again in the future.
