No-starch diet

I have ankylosing spondylitis and am positive for the HLA-B27 gene, and I know that there is one line of thinking out there that related IBS can be managed by removing all starch from the diet. Has anyone here heard of this, and if so, what are the thoughts? It's obviously a very different school of thought than Heather's, and my point isn't to argue--I'm just curious if anyone here has tried it or studied it. (I did try it a few years ago, but moreso for some mild AS symptoms. The only thing I experienced was weight loss, but my AS and IBS symptoms are so minimal that I might not have been the best candidate to try such a thing expecting to see much change.) I'd be eager to hear any insights anyone's got.
