It looks very interesting. I have had Ulcerative Colitis for 30+ years and it currently is in remission. I had a cousin, many many years ago who suffered with Crohns. Unfortunately, she was stubborn when it was flaring really bad and wouldn't go into the hospital until after the holidays. She ended up with systemic infection and they couldn't save her.

We have so much new information all the time about these diseases. After a talk with my masseuse today (a registered nurse as well), I'm convinced my Ulcerative Colitis and the severe damage from the major flares, has contributed to my overall pain with fibro, etc.

Some of the things she encouraged me to do was to cut wheat, dairy and sugar from my diet and to start getting acidopholus+enzymes into my system to try and help the digestion and help repair all of the damage and scarring.

This book looks very good. Thanks for the info.
