"Sticking to this diet has made a huge difference to me as someone with Crohn's disease and I would recommend it to anyone with this condition. (It's also got a very interesting chapter on celiac disease which would explain why so many people who are not diagnosed as celiacs feel they're intolerant to wheat, and is also recommended for people with ulcerative colitis, diverticulitis, etc and even autism in a chapter called "the brain connection"). The first part gives all the explanations about the science and research behind it, going back many years, and the second half gives recipes. Warning: it takes willpower! However if like me you know how very seriously Crohn's disease can affect you there's a serious incentive. The author Elaine Gottschall was a Canadian nutritional scientist who had a daughter who suffered as an infant with ulcerative colitis. This is what prompted her to formulate the diet based on her own knowledge and on previous research which she expands on in the book.
The diet itself involves eliminating not only wheat from your diet, but every other cereal too including oats: you'll also need to say goodbye to potatoes and rice as all these starch-based foods promote the bacterial imbalance in the gut which produces damage to the intestine as in Crohn's disease, which typically features inflammation, ulceration and bleeding in the gut. Also excluded are liquid milk (you can have yogurt although you're meant to make your own to get every trace of lactose out! and most cheeses although not all are allowed) and, very importantly, sugar, which adds significantly to fermentation in the gut. You replace sugar with honey in your diet, which is much easier to digest. Basically you have to cut out the complex carbohydrates in your diet, and not just for a day, but for a long period. So much for what you can't eat: what can you eat? Well, meat, fish, eggs, butter, fruits and vegetables are all fine, and nuts are used instead of flour to make cakes, biscuits etc using egg and baking soda as raising agents instead of flour and yeast. Other recipe books have since been written using principles from this book (eg "Grain-Free Gourmet" by Jodi Bager and Jenny Lass, and "Eat Well Feel Well" by Kendall Conrad): but my advice would be to start by reading the science: it will make it a lot easier to remember why you're doing it.) Sounds quirky? Yes, you might say it is: it's certainly radical. But it certainly works for me."
"This book details the diet found in Gut and Psychology book I read early this year. The book does not contain the introduction to the diet, this is found on the internet. The diet is aimed at healing damaged intestines to reduce symptoms of if not cure many intestinal ailments."
"Essential reading for anyone suffering from digestive ailments. Look it up on Amazon and check out all the positive reviews from people who have reversed their conditions!"
