Editorial Review:How to Cook for Crohn's and Colitis is a cookbook for anyone who suffers from inflammatory bowel disease (IBD, not to be confused with irritable bowel syndrome) or cooks for someone who has the disease. While there is no known cure for Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis, their symptoms can be controlled in part by following the dietary guidelines of the American Dietetic Association and those outlined in Dr. Fred Saibil's Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis: Everything You Need to Know and by other experts.
Brenda Roscher provides sound nutritional advice and outlines the unique dietary needs of people with IBD, showing how to incorporate this information to make healthy choices about which foods to eat.
The recipes in How to Cook for Crohn's and Colitis are designed for the home cook, with easy-to-understand directions and ingredients found in local grocery stores. Because they are simple, many of the recipes can be prepared quickly, which makes them convenient for busy cooks. Finally, the recipes are designed with families in mind, to create meals that everyone can enjoy.
How to Cook for Crohn's and Colitis also contains informative sidebars on such topics as: Tips on Dining Out, Organic vs. Non-Organic Foods, How to Read a Nutrition Label, Kneading Bread Dough, and Tips on Skimming Fat from Broth. It also contains a reading list for anyone who wants to learn more about IBD and nutrition, plus a comprehensive index.
The recipes are organized into the following categories: appetizers, chili-chowders-soups, salads and salad dressings, sandwiches, breads savory and sweet, beef and pork, poultry, fish and seafood, past and sauces, side dishes, condiments and sweets.

I'm sad to speak ill of a fellow Crohnie, but Brenda Rocher is doing the same thing most people do with Crohn's cookbooks: irresponsibly generalizing. Like a few other reviewers, I picked this book up thinking, "Ooh, recipes without insoluble fiber or complex sugars," but nope. It's just your typical "as long as it's low fat and talks about nutrition a lot, it's a Crohn's diet," book. I couldn't believe it when I saw recipes calling for ingredients that are known, common agitators for Crohn's ... Read More

The recipes in this book are standard cookbook fare. If you can eat spicy Creole dishes and a tossed salad with baby spinach, tomatoes, and sliced onion, you hardly need a special cookbook! If you can't eat those things, you'll be picking through this looking for appropriate recipes just as you would with any other cookbook.
The only difference between Roscher's recipes and traditional versions lies in her paranoid avoidance of saturated fat. For example, she recommends replacing butter ... Read More

The cookbook is very informative and the meals look very easy to plan and make. Picture of the menus looks very inviting.

DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK. It is terrible, and completely not as advertised. The title led me to think that this was a book of recipes for those suffering flareups of Crohn's or ulcerative colitis. However, most of the recipes have ingredients that are NOT good for IBD patients at least during flare-ups. Red meat, frying, spices and insoluble fiber are spread throughout these recipes and anyone who knows anything about this knows that these are not advised. Maybe these things work for you Brenda, and ... Read More
