“This book covers the nutritional component of managing inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) … . The audience is healthcare providers involved in the management of these patients. … I have already used this book a number of times in my clinical practice and continue to learn a great deal from it. In addition, I have encountered many questions from patients about what to eat, and this book serves as an excellent guide.” (Sunny Lo, Doody’s Book Reviews, July, 2016)
