Besides a genetic predisposition, the role played by diet and lifestyle as disease-causing factors is increasingly coming to the fore. These aspects represent adjusting screws we can turn to regain our health. Nevertheless, in so-called evidence-based medicine, IBD is considered chronic and incurable.\u003cbr\u003eAfter her son's diagnosis of ulcerative colitis, the author quickly realises that conventional medicine has nothing to offer for the 16-year-old Luca than lifelong, purely symptomatic drug therapy. Therefore, she takes the treatment of his colitis and a contamination phobia linked to it into her own hands. As a team, she, her son and her partner embark on a challenging healing journey. She writes her own prescription for Luca, which comprises the Specific Carbohydrate Diet (SCD), the GAPS diet, her unconditional love and her son's right to self-realisation, absolute self-care and authenticity.\u003cbr\u003eLuca's journey back to health involved many setbacks, demanding determination, patience and trust in his self-healing powers. Today, his colitis belongs to the past, and he can live without symptoms and without being medicated for life with drugs that have severe side effects.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Caro Beth\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 8390730391\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798390730393\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/01\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 260\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.57lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.81h x 5.06w x 0.55d","brand":"Caro Beth","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44652270354687,"sku":"9798390730393","price":13.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_976cd38a-ba76-47a9-8042-220199295669.jpg?v=1704215335","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/ulcerative-colitis-not-for-life-caro-beth-9798390730393","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
