Recipes that are specifically designed for people diagnosed with IBS.

It is estimated that about five million people suffer from IBS worldwide. The primary treatment for IBS is lifestyle changes, not medication, so a cookbook for healthy living is essential. Paying special attention to what you eat may go a long way toward reducing symptoms and promoting healing. It is generally recommended that people diagnosed with IBS eat a low fiber, non-dairy diet. (Some people find their symptoms are made worse by milk, alcohol, hot spices, or fiber.) However, Recipes for IBS provides readers with recipes that extend beyond just bland foods, allowing them to eat a 'normal' diet, such as comfort foods like macaroni and cheese and shepherd's pie, baked goods like brownies and pumpkin pie, as well as other sweets like ice cream and smoothies. The book features full-color illustrations, patient testimonials, and offers recipes that will make eating easier, enabling people diagnosed with this disease to live a more active, enjoyable life.

      Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) affects ten to 20 percent of the American public and is the most common diagnosis made by gastroenterologists. IBS creates culinary challenges, and Koff, a registered dietitian, has developed a colorful cookbook to address those issues. Since several conditions are associated with IBS, Koff codes each recipe in terms of the symptoms it helps to prevent or treat. Recipes are coded for loose stools and diarrhea, fiber, motility and lubrication, indigestion, and "really bad days." While the coding is a bit startling at first, for those suffering from these symptoms, the recipes are a welcome aid in the kitchen; most feature a color photograph, are attractive and appetizing, and all include nutritional analysis, which make the work appealing to anyone interested in healthy eating. The Veggie Chips would appeal to any vegetarian, and the Spinach-Artichoke Dip would work at any party. Koff's work adds a different dimension to collections of health-related cookbooks.Deborah Lee, Mississippi State Univ. Libs., Starkville
