Question
First, thank you for responding to my question regarding my granddaughter who has crohn's disease.  Her mother tried breastfeeding but didn't do it very long. They have recently taken her off of dairy products and are trying soy milk.
My son is very interested in alternatives and is going to check into it.  There is a company called Reliv that has supplements for younger people and he is going to try that. Her mom & dad
are willing to do anything as the doctor in Portland was talking about possible surgery in the
near future and they desperately against that. Are there any other things she shouldn't be eating other than dairy products? Thank you for
the recommendation of slippery elm and pine bark.
I truly believe in natural products and we will do
all we can in this direction for her.  

Answer
The books that are out there and you need to research I'm not sure of the names of the book. My firend said no grains i believe. At leat corn and wheat.  No red meats.  Take enzymes with meals and do the aloe for sure.  No sugar for her .   When yo find the books I'm sure you'll find out more to do for her. Good luck Jayne
