While Janowitz covers many digestive problems in this book, I was specifically interested in Chapter 12: What Should We Feed the Inflamed Intestine? Ulcerative Colitis and Crohn's Disease.He spends a great dealof time outlining a "low-residue" diet as well as a low-oxalatediet, both of which are purported to assist persons suffering from IBD. Since both diets are quite nutritionally sound, they are certainly worthtrying and his discussion on lactose sensitivity is one of the mostbalanced I've read.With only one chapter pertaining to IBD, it might bemore practical to request this book interlibrary loan rather than purchaseit, but if you have other family members with other digestive problems, theother chapters may have increased relevance and applicability!Click Here to see more reviews about: Good Food for Bad Stomachs (Paperback)
