More than a million
Americans suffer the pain, fevers, and bleeding of Crohn's disease,
colitis, and other incurable inflammatory bowel disorders (IBDs), whose
numbers are rising every year. While most patients are treated with
harsh prescription drugs or invasive surgery, these merely mask or
postpone the symptoms.
All
her life, author Virginia Harper had suffered from the debilitating
effects of Crohn's disease. Even with heavy medication her symptoms
persisted, and so she turned to a natural treatment regimen consisting
of simple changes in diet and lifestyle. The results were truly
remarkable. Within a year, she was not only pain-free, but
symptom-free. Some twenty years later, Virginia's diarrhea, painful
indigestion, cramps and bleeding have never returned.
In
this important book, she shares her life-changing experiences with you.
You'll learn about the eating program that has worked for her: which
foods to consume, their preparation, and how to combine them in the
most effective ways. You'll also receive her advice on easy activities
to help restore your energy. Plus she discusses the latest drugs and
surgical procedures, including their side effects, and tells you how to
work with your doctor to become a more effective partner in your IBD
treatment.
