My mother is 62, I am 27 and have been so wrapped up in m own life, I didn't pay attention to what was really going on in my mom's. She got some of her small intestines removed. I am not sure why, but most of it is gone. When she told me this years ago, I didn't think too much of it(even though she had gotten really sick afterwards due to something coming undone i believe) because I always thought hospitals and doctors knew whats best. Well years have passed I've grown up, A LOT, and now she has been complaining about losing weight, and headaches, depression, hair loss, etc..So, i'm guessing by putting 2 and 2 together..she's not getting her fuel. I have researched all night, and basically need to start with someone who can guide her and let her know how serious it is to follow a good diet for the rest of her life. I want her to absorb nutrients as if she had all of her small intestines. Are b12 shots good for her? Are there organic super foods out there? Is malnutrition her problem? CAN YOU HELP? Please let me know either way. Thank you for your time.
