Breaking the Vicious Cycle: Intestinal Health Through Diet
Elaine Gottschall
“Diet for Crohn’s Disease, Ulcerative Colitis Diverticulitis, Celiac Disease, Cystic Fibrosis and Chronic Diarrhea”
Personally, I think this food plan is a good one for those battling Food Addiction and other issues with food, with some minor tweaking.
This food plan starves out the “bad bugs” in your gut and restores the proper balance. A must have book for those with the above conditions.
