Low Starch Diet Could Help IBS Sufferers

Carol Sinclair suffered from irritable bowel syndrome for most of her life. After watching a documentary in 1986 on food allergies she gave up eating starch and experienced immediate relief. When Carol discovered that IBS was also a symptom of an arthritic disease called Ankylosing Spondylitis, it explained the chronic back pain she had been suffering for most of her life.

Her findings were in line with the result of research by one of the world’s top immunologists which led to the discovery that starch is a significant contribu¬tor to many forms of chronic arthritic pain.

Carol then collaborated with Dr Alan Ebringer (Professor of Immunology at Kings College London) to write a practical guide to help reduce the arthritic symptoms that prey on millions of our population, whose pain to date has been relieved only by regular medication, with sometimes dangerous side effects. Other symptoms are often misdiagnosed for years.

What’s so astounding is that a gradual reduction of starch in one’s diet can help to dramatically reduce pain in days, to a point where drug usage is reduced and in some cases eliminated completely.

Details of Carol’s discovery—along with case histories and a practical guide—make Carol Sinclair’s IBS Low-Starch Diet a first in the world. The IBS Low-Starch Diet also contains over 200 delicious starch and gluten-free recipes, along with a comprehensive guide to eating out.
