Message: <blockquote data-quote="Brunneria" data-source="post: 1777361" data-attributes="member: 41816">Thanks [USER=408573]@Guzzler[/USER] and welcome [USER=473199]@Valeria[/USER] I can't comment on Crohns I am afraid.  Although I have known someone with it, and it was very difficult for them, they hadn't had any operations, but were heading that way.  Very tricky managing it on a day to day basis.My own experience is MUCH milder, and probably not at all comparable.  But this is how it has gone for me:Just before Xmas I got a bad tummy bug that kept coming back over Xmas and January.  Not pleasant.Trial and error led me to realise that while my guts had recovered from the tummy bug, they were still absurdly sensitive to fibre and only wanted to digest certain foods.Things are slowly improving, but now (5 months later) I find myself able to digest meat, fish, eggs, cheese, some dairy, and a few small oddities like chocolate, potato and (bizarrely) nuts, without any problems at all.  However fruit, veg and grains cause very unpleasant repercussions.Faced with this, I spent a while researching what is known on the Web as 'Zero Carbing' where people aim to get ALL their nutrition from meat, fish and eggs.  And I have been doing that since just after Xmas.  I would much prefer to eat a wider range of foods, and when my guts recover enough, then I expect I will do so, but in the meantime, I find carnivory a sustainable option.Hope that helps!If you do a google search for 'zero carb', 'zero carb zen' and 'eat meat drink water' you will find quite a bit of info come up.<img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
