Crohn's & Colitis Diet Guide: Includes 150 Recipes

I have colitis, so the book has been very helpful with meal choices. The recipes are delicious !

A lot of good information, but...

This book has a lot of good nutritional information that someone with Crohn's or Colitis needs to be aware of, in a very readable format. However, some of the recipes sound questionable for people with these conditions. My family members with Crohn's and colitis cannot tolerate foods with chili powder, peppers, etc. Some of the recipes use these type of ingredients, but you can modify them to suit your individual needs. All in all, a good nutritional book for Crohn's & colitis.
