 Excellent Diet Book/Root Cause January 8, 2009
Just read "Eating for IBS" and thought that Heather did an excellent job at providing dietary tips and eating healthy foods for dealing with this miserable and very frustrating condition. Its important to remember that "IBS" is just a catch-all phrase that the Drs. use when they can't find anything to explain your symptoms. This being the case, the cause can be anything!
Maybe you shouldn't have meatloaf and a vanilla shake for breakfeast? Or maybe the "Root Cause" could be an overgrowth of Bacteria in your intestines?? Its been proven that many "IBS Cases" started after having a bad case of Food Poisoning. I would highly recommend Dr. Mark Pimentel's Book, "A New IBS Solution" This is the ONLY book that discusses bacteria overgrowth and how to diagnose and treat it! It might be the best investment you've ever made!

this IS SO IMPORTANT IF U ARE EXPERIENCING BACK PAIN WITH YOUR IBS AND PAIN AND FATIGUE AND MEMORY LOSS AND SLEEP PROBLEMS PLEASE READ THE BOOK what your doctor may not tell you about fibromyalgia and start the treatment for it please this is fibro it is NOT ibs!!! thanks!
It would be best if you can see contents of this before you buy September 22, 2008
My wife was told she may have IBS so we decided to gather info and see about working on a better diet since it helps with IBS. The challenge for us is she had limited tastes in food and adverse reactions to other foods. Once we got the book. she scanned through it to discover maybe three recipes she would enjoy.
I would advise anyone considering this book to find a physical copy so you can see all the recipes and then decide if you want to buy it. Amazon has great prices, so come back here and buy it. My your local library might have it.
 A life-saver! September 11, 2008

I love love love this book! Finally someone who knows what she's talking about and who truly understands the pain that we're going through. The recipes are absolutely delicious and easy to make. I buy all the groceries for the recipes on the weekend and then cook some meals for the coming week and keep them in the freezer. It's good to avoid the stress of worrying about what to eat when there's no time to cook, and you're not sure what you can eat without dying from pain anyway. I can especially recommend the Sweet Cinnamon Zucchini Bread and the Italian Lemon Tuna & Basil Salad. Yum, yum, yum... :-)
 4.5 stars - A top rating for reducing IBS August 31, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
It is about 70% for attacks of IBS when it comes to food for me; however that 70% is reducing. This IBS cookbook was a blessed find and money well spent. The recipes range from 'everday' meals to fancy dishes when having company.
Some recipes I have tried and absolutely melt for are:
- Louisiana Barbecued 'Catfish' sandwiches. (I followed the recipe and used the sauce on Tuna filets. Not a catfish person - those are 2 animals that should not cross breed)
- Jamaican Chicken with Ginger Peach Dressing (yum)
- Gingerbread
- Fettucine with Creamy Butternut Squash Sauce
The recipes are neutral, for additional special needs. They call for Soy based products, which is an added bonus for milk allergy.
The recipes are sometimes time consuming, but indeed, worth the effort. Having a guide with IBS friendly food allows for your own personal creativity.
