Challenges in Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), is a book for gastroenterologists and surgeons, and for trainees who know the tried and tested information, but now want to know about the areas of controversy in this fast-moving area. Suitable for gastroenterologists, surgeons, and trainees who know the tried and tested information, but now want to know about the areas of controversy in this fast-moving area, this title focuses on modern issues, and covers various aspects. From a review of the first edition: "The editors and publishers have succeeded admirably in at least three respects... Firstly, they have assembled an all-star cast of contributors ... Secondly, they have constructed this monograph ingeniously. Each chapter title is phrased as a question, which is then examined critically with scores of references that are pertinent and up to date. As a third defining feature of this ambitious volume, the editors have demanded and received from their authors highly critical analyses of "the most recently available evidence." The authors analyse and interpret the evidence in ways that allow each chapter to reach reasonably well founded conclusions.

Diet is a huge priority for anyone living with Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis. The authors provide crucial guidance for sufferers, families, friends and caregivers in helping to manage IBD (inflammatory bowel disease) symptoms. In a very informative and easy-to-understand manner, this updated third edition provides all the necessary guidelines regarding the specific foods that might cause problems, as well as IBD-tailored recipes that can be enjoyed without compromising taste and overall nutrition. The reliable answers from one of the world’s top gastroenterology teams cover everything from the facts, causes and symptoms of IBD to the latest and most relevant information on drug therapies and surgical therapies — all in straightforward and easy-to-follow format. With its informative charts and graphs, the book’s additional 25 new recipes provide sumptuous breakfast ideas like Banana Cinnamon Quinoa Waffles, comfort foods like Old-Fashioned Tuna Noodle Casserole and vegetarian favourites like Slow Cooker Squash Couscous. And all with the most current nutritional information.
