Here is a list of some good books you can read to learn more about diets which have worked for many people who are struggling with UC, also books to get you more familiar with UC if you are newly diagnosed. You can buy them by clicking on them which will take you to Amazon’s site.
This is the book “Breaking the Vicious Cycle” that I base my diet off. It is the same book that the girl who explained how she got better from UC with diet used. Basically, I wish this book was handed out when people come out of the colonoscopy, or when they are talking with their doctor about bleeding/bowel movements. It’s a must read in my book. If you can’t afford your own, I will mail you mine, just as long as you mail it back. So send me an email at ihaveuc@ihaveuc.com My name is Adam.
Here is another book with all kinds of recipes based off the guidelines from the Breaking the Vicious Cycle book. At the end of the day, the diet is a super healthy one, and it takes time getting used to, so having some ideas for nice meals makes it that much easier.
This is a book my dad got me and it actually still sits on top of the toilet which is where I read it back in the early days after being diagnosed. It gives quite a bit of great overviews as to the disease and what is going on. Its very simple reading and mine is about 308 pages all the way to the end of the index at the end. I enjoyed being able to read about what was happening, even if it was on the toilet.
Another Book with great food ideas for people like us with UC.
