Hi- just to share my experience...I did read and follow Doug's antifungal diet. And yes, it does eliminate grains and foods with higher carbs/sugar initially. I did get well from following the diet after a long history of UC. (I only mention this since I read you also have IBD-Crohn's). If you do some research (pubmed), you will find that fungus/yeast has been implicated in UC and Crohn's. As well, those who have eliminated wheat may find their UC and Crohn's symptoms reduced or disappear. I have been going gluten free since reading Wheat Belly and feel terrific. Used to be prone to IBS-D symptoms but now it is no longer a problem. No need to carry immodium everywhere I go now anyway. Doesn't hurt to try something different, but no one can guarantee that it will, or will not work. I would say, why not experiment with the diet and see how you feel in a few weeks? You have to be vigilant initially on the diet, however. Good luck!
