Product Description
If you are one of the millions of people suffering from IBS, immediate help is finally at hand. Contrary to what many judge, eating for IBS does not mean deprivation, never going to restaurants, dull food, or a limited and therefore unhealthy diet. It does mean learning to eat safely by realizing how different foods physically affect the GI tract, and how these foods can prevent or trigger IBS. For example:
* There are two kinds of fiber…one soothes the colon but the additional can cause severe attacks
* Dairy is a common trigger…even in people who are not lactose intolerant
* Peppermint, chamomile, and fennel can prevent attacks better than some prescription drugs
* Featureless foods are not automatically safe foods
In Eating for IBS, Heather Van Vorous, who has suffered from IBS for over 20 years and gradually learned to control her symptoms through dietary modifications, offers sympathetic suggestions tailored specifically to the needs of IBS sufferers that are based on first-hand experience as well as nutritional research. She provides a comprehensive overview of IBS, explicit eating and cooking strategies, travel and restaurant advice, daily menus, supermarket thoughts, and 175 gourmet recipes. IBS sufferers will be tickled to learn that they can delight in traditional homestyle cooking, ethnic foods, rich desserts, food and drink, and party foods—and don’t have to cook unusual or special meals for themselves while their families follow a “normal” diet. Eating for IBS will forever revolutionize the way people with IBS eat—and live.

Hi – When you see a health related topic that has spawned an entire industry you can be sure of two things: A lot of people are suffering and there is small or nothing, beyond the obvious, that can be done about it. (Diet books are a perfect example).
So, to minimize ABS, simply avoid the following: Coffee, bacon, fried food, greasy food, vinegar, pepper, orange juice, grapefruit juice, red wine, all Thai food, all Vietnamese food, all Korean food, all spicy Chinese food, all acidic Italian food and Mexican food. Japanese seems to be a toss up because wasabi–a sort of horseradish–does not smolder the way chili pepper does.
Of course everybody’s different but much of this is a no-brainer, since stuff like greasy flavor burgers are tough on everybody–not to mention, unhealthy. And be aware that “mild” in a Thai restaurant translates to “incendiary…but less so than our additional entries”.
Some will say this is a long list but you know the alternative….and loading up with white rice and bread may or may not help–while giving way too many carbohydrates and possible constipation.
I realize that some things cut both ways (no pun proposed) like alchohol or mint or fiber. Just depends on which book you read. But do you really need a book to tell you to avoid pickles and pepperoni?
Reaseach suggesting IBS sufferers are worriers, agitated, “high strung” or whatever is encouraging. But fleeting of a brain transplant I wouldn’t count on being able to cool your digestive system to a point where you can eat anything you want.

Hi,
Yes, many suggestions in this book works as prevention. But when IBS hits me, I finally establish quick relief – via Acupuncture. Mayo Clinic’s Dr. Sood listed Acupuncture as his top ten alternative medicine. Here is his write up: “In this treatment from traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncturists slot in thin needles into strategic, energy-balancing points on the body. Acupuncture can prevent and treat vomiting and vomiting and help relieve many types of pain, including that from osteoarthritis, low back pain, neck pain, headaches and postsurgical pain. Patients who receive acupuncture typically receive up to 12 treatments, usually agreed once or twice a week. ” One word of advise – most acupuncturists are not excellent. Ours teach at a Eastern Medicine University in Sunnyvale, CA and he is honest and brilliant.

Here is yet another person who cashes in on the misery of people who suffer the multitude of problems that are swept up in the single mark “irritable bowel syndrome”.
Clearly some people get relief from symptoms using the leader’s recipes – predominantly the leader. It is increasingly clear to me that each sufferer of “irritable bowel syndrome” has very different needs. In my case these recipes helped not one jot. Purchasing the book was a perfect waste of money and I wish I could get a refund. I doubt this would ever be in the offing.
The central issue I’ve establish with purveyors of “alternative medical” advice is that they proffer a supposed “cure” – lacking any hard data to support it and certainly lacking any guarantee. They question you to pay up front and then when it doesn’t work you get swept aside as they selectively place forwards testimonials of persons for whom the product “works” (a large percentage of whom are probably hypochodriacs waiting for any placebo – preferably one that accords with their pseudo-scientific beliefs).
I am appalled that the leader should “guarantee” that her recipes will “stablize even the touchiest tummy” – yet she fails to place her money where her mouth is when it comes to a name whose touchy tummy isn’t stabilzed.
At least our (imperfect and regularly impersonal) medical science they offer one certainty; that what they offer is the best known approach to date. It is the “best known approach” even if it is far from desirable. It is the “best known approach” because it will generally the approach that has been tested to the extent possible via the scientific method.
I continue to plumb through the depths of “anecdotal evidence” in the hope that one of these will be of help to me. So far not one has. I marvel when I’ll realise that people like this leader are really just purveyors of fake hope. It might even be that the leader believes in what she says; it’s just a bring shame on that she doesn’t realise that what works for her and a few additional people will not work for many others. As a replacement for she nearly certainly revels in a kind of congratulatory self-denial. Either that, or she is a heartless, calculating profit-seeker. Take your pick; they are the only 2 options.
Buy this book, but caveat emptor; it probably won’t do diddly squat if you have serious irritable bowel. It probably won’t tell you anything you haven’t heard (or tried) before. If, on the additional hand, you really like the “self-help” section of the bookstore and take to every fad that comes about (many of which are wholly inconsistent) then this book can’t disappoint.
If, like me, you are prepared to waste some money in the off-chance that it’ll help and if, like me, you don’t want to pre-judge something till you’ve tried it, give it a go. If (as in my case) it doesn’t make one iota of difference you’ll just lose the $50 odd incl postage, and go on. Your only recourse will be to write an honest review – which I encourage you to do. The more people who stay silent, the more quacks and fake-hope merchants will continue to prey off the misery of persons that modern medical science still hasn’t establish a way to help.

Excellent read, appealing. I have Crohn’s Disease, and this is decidedly NOT a book for the type of Crohn’s I have. Many of the recipes are not low residue, which is helpful for me. A word of caution–my doctor keeps insisting that I have to figure out what I can and can’t eat, and in what quantities. Everyone’s digestive disorder is different–at least no one in my CCFA group can eat some things I can, and I can eat some things they can’t. I establish the low residue information online much more helpful than this book, and IMHO I do not recommend it for anyone with a Crohn’s stricture.
