I can appreciate the diet you have come up with. One thing you should notice is that you have eliminated a lot of fructose from your diet. I have had UC for 10 years and got the book, "The Self-Help Way to Treat Colitis and Other IBS Conditions" by De Lamar Gibbons. The theory behind inflammatory bowel is that we are fructose intolerant!!! How does that sound? If you eliminate fructose (i.e. fruits, high fructose corn syrup) from your diet, you won't have the syptoms. Artificial sweetners such as sorbitol and mannitol will destroy the bowel lining also.
The reason behind this is we lack the enzymes neccessary to digest the sugars properly. The food goes down to our intestines and ferments....which leads to the horrific syptoms that we all know and hate.
I was on my last leg with UC and was ready to have my colon removed. I was on 30 mg of prednisone and sulfasalazine and was not reponding to either. I got the book form Amazon and Mr. Gibbons, who is a doctor with UC, said if you follow the diet and avoid fructose, you'll see results in 2-3 days. I saw results in 2-3 days!!! I'm off of all medicines and am living a normal life!!! Please try this and pass it on!!! It's real and it's now!!!
Our next step would be to get the drug companies to stop making the drugs that have the bad side effects and make a digestive enzyme that will help us digest fructose. The over the counter "essential enzymes" that are everywhere don't work. There is nothing out there that will help. That's why we need to get the drug companies to hear this!!

Thank you.
