[QUOTE="Annb, post: 2147602, member: 25851"] My No 1 son has Crohn's disease and he manages his symptoms with diet exclusively. He has cut out anything fibre-rich and only uses olive oil or (occasionally) soya spread on his own home-made bread. He is also seriously allergic to many things, including foodstuffs so his diet is severely limited. Food for him is just fuel so he refuels at intervals he has set for himself whether hungry or not and only has a limited amount at each refuelling. In order to support this regime he has to take a vitamin and mineral supplement and the whole regime does seem to work because although he gets an occasional flare-up, and sometimes that is a severe one with serious inflammation of his gut, he has, over the last 25 years, never had to resort to surgery. Doctors originally tried to treat him with drugs, which his system could not tolerate and now they leave him alone and let him self-treat because it seems to be more successful than they are in other cases.
