Product Description
Researchers have attempted to unveil the mystery of Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis for years. The intricate complexities of these diseases still are not understood fully, and scientists persistently search for the missing puzzle pieces. While studies have been done on the effects of a restricted sugar diet and also the effects of probiotics, research combining the two approaches is lacking. However, preliminary scientific evidence has revealed clues to the credibility of the treatment that Dr. J. Rainer Poley recommends. His approach of suggesting a sucrose restricted diet and taking a reliable probiotic, such as the one containing Lactobacillus GG [Gorbach and Goldin], has initiated the continued remission of Crohn's disease for the author's daughter and others.J. Rainer Poley, M.D. currently practices as a pediatric gastroenterologist at the Brody Medical School at East Carolina University in Greenville, North Carolina. He graduated from the Medical University of Innsbruck, Austria and completed his pediatric and gastroenterology residency at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota.Martha Kalichman, a registered nurse, graduated from Norfolk General Hospital School of Nursing in Virginia. For many years she has diligently researched health issues that have affected her husband and two children. ... Read more

Simple, Without Side Effects and Effective Long Term
Imagine a prescription for a devastating disease that is simple, relatively inexpensive, without side effects and effective long term.

Author Martha Kalichman did just that when faced with her fifteen year old daughter's diagnosis of Crohn's Disease. She called upon her knowledge as a registered nurse, her interest in medical research and her faith to find a better answer than the harsh medications currently offered.

In this reader-friendly narrative, Martha shares the journey her family traveled in search of better options. The result is an incredible discovery that is backed by medical research.

Written in conjunction with a pediatric gastroenterologist, J. Rainer Poley, M.D., who completed his residency at the Mayo Clinic and now practices in North Carolina,this powerful little book contains Martha's story and guidelines for this "prescription." Medical references are provided for those interested in looking into the research themselves.

Reaching for Answers to Crohn's Disease will live as a trailblazer for improved health and quality of life for sufferers of this potentially debilitating disease.

An inspired book that gets us "back to basics."
I was first given excerpts of this book to read when my 12 year old was hospitalized for acute ileitis.Her symptoms were similar to that of Crohn's, and following the advice in this book has been a blessing.How long will it be before we wake up and realize that sugar is not good for us in any way, shape or form?How long before the medical world can come out from under the drug industry and get back to basics?My child had doctors that listened, and I told them about this book.It was literally a gift from God for our family. ...

Product Description
The management of Crohn's disease is still a challenge due to the complexity of therapeutical decision-making, which has recently become even more difficult because of novel biological therapies. Thus, criteria to assess the appropriateness of therapeutical options are called for. One well-accepted method is the RAND Appropriateness Method, integrating a systematic review of the medical literature with personal experience of experts in the field. The so found appropriateness criteria may then serve as a basis for guidelines concerning therapy and to assist individual clinicians in their treatment choices. Aiming to apply the RAND Appropriateness Method approach to the treatment of Crohn's disease, the European Panel on the Appropriateness of Crohn's Disease Therapy has been organized under the auspices of the European Crohn's and Colitis Organisation. The publication at hand presents the literature reviews produced for the purpose of the panel. ... Read more

Excerpt: Crohn's disease (also known as granulomatous, and colitis) is an inflammatory disease of the intestines that may affect any part of the gastrointestinal tract from mouth to anus, causing a wide variety of symptoms. It primarily causes abdominal pain, diarrhea (which may be bloody), vomiting, or weight loss, but may also cause complications outside of the gastrointestinal tract such as skin rashes, arthritis, inflammation of the eye, tiredness, and lack of concentration. Crohn's disease is thought to be an autoimmune disease, in which the body's immune system attacks the gastrointestinal tract, causing inflammation; it is classified as a type of inflammatory bowel disease. There has been evidence of a genetic link to Crohn's disease, putting individuals with siblings afflicted with the disease at higher risk. It is understood to have a large environmental component as evidenced by the higher number of cases in western industrialized nations. Males and females are equally affected. Smokers are three times more likely to develop Crohn's disease. Crohn's disease affects between 400,000 and 600,000 people in North America. Prevalence estimates for Northern Europe have ranged from 2748 per 100,000. Crohn's disease tends to present initially in the teens and twenties, with another peak incidence in the fifties to seventies, although the disease can occur at any age. There is no known pharmaceu...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=63522 ... Read more

Haven't read it but just the title is offensive to me - I'm a recovered alcoholic
This book is a fraud.A strong immune system provides no protection against alcoholism.It's the opposite, drinking alcohol excessively damages the immune system.I'm not a medical expert but I'm a recovered alcoholic with 27 years of sobriety.

It worked !!
I was very skeptical, but I used the methods in this book.
It was the wisest thing I have ever done for my health and my family.
It truly works!

Product Description
In March 2001, the National Institutes of Health issued the following warning: "The number of Web sites offering health-related resources grows every day. Many sites provide valuable information, while others may have information that is unreliable or misleading." Furthermore, because of the rapid increase in Internet-based information, many hours can be wasted searching, selecting, and printing. Since only the smallest fraction of information dealing with Crohn disease is indexed in search engines, such as www.google.com or others, a non-systematic approach to Internet research can be not only time consuming, but also incomplete. This book was created for medical professionals, students, and members of the general public who want to conduct medical research using the most advanced tools available and spending the least amount of time doing so. ...
