Grain-free, lactose-free, sucrose-free diet that allows only specific carbohydrates (monosaccharides) that are easily absorbed. Eliminates complex carbohydrates that feed pathogenic bacteria. Well-established for IBD.
Strong evidence base for IBD. Gottschall's daughter cured of UC on this diet. Mechanism makes sense (starve pathogenic bacteria). Can be combined with medication. Less restrictive than GAPS but still challenging.
