There are some very good books I have read about colitis and some very bad ones as well ! Here are my reviews of them -
New Colitis Breakthrough , This is a very interesting e-book about what the root cause of colitis is. It discusses your inner ecology in great depth and describes simple steps you can take to improve your general cell health and thereby heal your colitis. I picked up some really useful information in this book especially about cell health and how it affects your whole body and specifically Colitis. Well worth getting
Restoring Your Digestive Health, This was one of the best books I read early on when I was just out of hospital. What was good about it ? Firstly the bloke who wrote it had worse problems that me, it describes what he went through and how he recovered completely from Crohn’s Colitis. Secondly it describes all the alternative therapies he tried – and he tried just about everything – and which ones were worth it, this alone probably saved me hours of my time and loads of money ! Thirdly it gets you on the right track as to how to start to eat, which is basically like your paleolithic ancestors. It also has a great Chicken Stock soup recipie which i’m still using today ! Well worth a read
Exercise Book -The Way of Energy , This is one of my favourite books, its not about Colitis specifically but the exercise system it teaches is I think one of the major contributing factors to keeping me in permanent remission from Ulcerative Colitis, get it and start doing the exercises – they will help you to be very very healthy and stay that way.
Ulcerative Colitis Diet Book – Protein Power Life Plan , This is an excellent book about diet in general and also has some brilliant information on Ulcerative Colitis. It is clearly written and easy to understand and will get you on the right track in terms of eating the right Diet for Colitis.
Probiotics for Crohn’s and Colitis, written by a sufferer this is a very well researched book in to the positive effects of probiotics in IBD, its quite technical but it has some wonderful information in it. Well worth a look.
Meals That Heal Inflammation, this ones not specifically about Colitis, but it is about diet and we all know that has a big effect on Colitis. It is an excellent book about how to eat an anti-inflammatory diet. Find out more here
