Summary

Calm your belly—and relieve bloating, indigestion, IBS, and Crohn’s disease—with this varied, comforting, and delicious diet!
Digestive disorders such as IBS and Crohn’s disease are rapidly increasing, and many sufferers are struggling with their symptoms. Cecilie Agotnes understands; IBS nearly derailed her life until she learned about the low-FODMAP diet, which eliminates common carbohydrates that may trigger a reaction. But getting rid of such everyday staples as onions, garlic, milk, and bread can make cooking challenging. Fortunately, Calm Belly Cookbook features more than 80 tasty, tried, and tested recipes that are extremely low in FODMAP but tempting enough for the entire family to enjoy. In addition to providing such delicious dishes as Miso and Mushroom Soup, Salmon Poké, Lasagne, and Dreamy Chocolate Cake, Cecilie breaks down the relevant medically proven information into easily assimilated, bite-size pieces.

Author Biography

A native of Oslo, Norway, Cecilie Agotnes is a living testament to the success of low FODMAP eating. She had a successful career as a world champion nail artist but had to give it all up as her IBS worsened and became too difficult to manage. After extensive research she discovered the low-FODMAP program developed at Monash University in Melbourne, Australia, and supported by Kings College in London. For the last 10 years she has documented her developing understanding of her condition and the medical theory behind low FODMAP on her blog lavfodmap.no (also in English at lowfodmapblog.com). As a fantastic home cook, she has also developed original recipes that taste delicious yet are on the lowest FODMAP rating (applicable to the elimination stage of the diet) and have very low risk of upsetting the stomach. She regularly speaks at conferences and to hospital patient groups on the low FODMAP diet and mastering IBS.
