Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | Re: Heather, what the hell?

I sort of know where you are coming from. I followed Heather's diet and I haven't had much success either. I've actually been getting worse over the past six months since I've started following it. I also have been reading other books and have a few questions as well. Not to attack you Heather but I am very confused. I've been reading "Patient Heal Thyself" by Jordan Rubin. He says sugar is bad, bad, bad. He also says that white bread is harder to digest than proteins and it's been suggested that I cut out all fruits, fruit juices, sugars and reduce to a minimum pasta, breads and baked goods and that I should eat whole grains and rice instead. The pasta and the bread are very processed and for my digestive tract right now I need more easy to digest protein to rebuild than heavy loads of starch that need lots of enzyme to digest.

And this in only the beginning of the conflicts. They have their research and ideas and you have yours. Who's right? I want to get well and it's just hasn't been happening. I hope you don't think you are being attacked. I just need some answers and I'm sure there are others out there as well.
