contents

According to the Digestive Disorders Foundation, one in ten people suffer pain and distress from illnesses involving the stomach and intestines. These conditions account for approximately one in sixteen deaths in the United Kingdom.

This book is about a remarkable, often misunderstood and frequently embarrassing part of the human body the gut. The message is simple: eat to take care of your gut and it will take care of you.

While the gut, or digestive system, usually works so well we ignore and often abuse it, things can go terribly wrong. As sufferers of Crohns disease or irritable bowel syndrome know, a damaged gut can seriously reduce your quality of life. Fortunately, most digestive problems are minor and self-limiting, but even repeated bouts of these can interfere with normal good health and lead to more serious conditions.

Avoiding digestive disasters often requires little more than changing dietary habits. Here is one example of how a poor diet can lead to problems: failure to eat enough high-fibre fruits and vegetables each day can lead to constipation; repeated bouts of constipation may stretch the delicate walls of the lower bowel which, over time, encourages the formation of pockets or diverticula. These pockets may be trouble-free for years. Then infection and inflammation suddenly develop and cause a serious condition known as diverticulitis. It might have been avoided. Instead of risking pain and illness, why not follow medical advice and change your diet? When it comes to fruit and vegetables, the five-a-day slogan is a good one.

The Healthy Gut Cookbook aims to change attitudes about diet and the gut. Thanks to Marguerite Pattens story in Chapter 1, concerning her work and her personal experience with irritable bowel syndrome, we have first-hand information about how food has been used over the decades to combat ailments of the digestive system. At the heart of this book are more than 60 recipes Marguerite has written to promote foods that help maintain a healthy gut and restore one that is flagging.

Written by a nutritionist and health writer, the remainder of the text reflects modern research with contributions from nutritional therapy, traditional Chinese medicine and Ayurveda. (Look for more information about these approaches to healing in the Glossary.) Along with a brief tour of the digestive system and advice on how to maintain a healthy gut, there is a chapter on the special foods that heal and protect the digestive system. A major section describes 20 common and serious illnesses of the digestive system. For each, lists of healing foods and foods to be avoided are provided, along with the names of two or more of Marguerite Pattens healthy-gut recipes.

Information on important related subjects is presented throughout. For example, you will read about how to enjoy eating, which medications affect your gut, tips on food hygiene, and why probiotics is finding wide acclaim. It may come as a surprise that no single diet for a healthy gut is recommended. This is because everyones needs are unique and change with the ever-shifting circumstances of living. Selecting foods that comfort and balance your digestive system today provides a foundation for a happier and healthier life tomorrow.

If you suffer from a gut disorder and are under a doctors care, always check with him or her before changing your diet.

So heres to good eating and a very healthy gut!

Jeannette V. Ewin Ph.D.

When I was young, few people especially women used the term gut, as it was not considered ladylike. We would have talked about stomach or inner disorders. Nowadays we appreciate the fact that gut is the right word to describe the various internal parts of the digestive system, each of which plays an essential role in keeping us healthy. It is when one or more of these organs is not working properly that we begin to feel unwell.

Throughout most of my life indeed until quite recently I have experienced little gut trouble. Over the years, some friends and colleagues have told me of their digestive and internal problems. As I listened to them, I felt extremely relieved that I had not experienced similar complaints. When I think back, the first time I felt really unwell was during pregnancy. I not only suffered from the fairly common morning sickness but I also experienced nausea and some vomiting throughout many days. It was 1942 and I, like so many other people, was worried all the time about the safety of my husband, who was flying in the RAF, and my brother who was at sea. I tried to stay calm and relaxed, as I felt anxiety could only make me feel worse. I had just started work as a food advisor to the Ministry of Food. I held a senior position so had to be efficient and on the ball as I demonstrated ways to make the best use of the relatively limited foods available. I consulted a local doctor, who had never met me before. Although she was sympathetic about my problem, she simply advised me to take sugar in my tea and get as much exercise and fresh air as possible. She gave me an examination and assured me that all was well with the baby.
