The IBS starch-free diet - Carol Sinclair

Over 3 million people in the Uk suffer from Irritable Bowel Syndrome, but many may be unaware that the simpe elimination of starch from their diet could bring dramatic relief from pain and discomfort. Carol Sinclair suffered from the pain and discomfort for years. The standard 'cures' seemed only to exacerbate her condition. By monitoring carefully which foods seemed to trigger the symptoms, Carol came to identify STARCH as the offending food which was causing her problems. This book explains the Sinclair Diet System and includes over 200 starch-free recipes to help sufferers adjust to the difficulty of cutting out on of the most frequently used food substances. Written in association with Dr Alan Stewart, a doctor who specialises in allergy related illnesses, this book explains the causes and symptoms of this uncomfortable condition, and gives advice on identifying symptoms, gaining awareness of foods which contain starch, and creating flexible and exciting starch-free menus.
