The Starling Diet for Outwitting Chronic Digestive Disease

The Starling Diet for Outwitting Chronic Digestive Disease is authored by Phyllis Starling Wallenmeyer with a foreword by Theodore M. Bayless, M.D.

The Starling Diet is a highly successful research and evidence-based diet therapy that Phyllis Starling Wallenmeyer developed for her Crohn's disease and Crohn's colitis, by combining advice from her Johns Hopkins physicians with the very latest research from the National Institutes of Health, Johns Hopkins, Harvard, the University of Pennsylvania, and other leading medical institutions and institutions.

Using the best medical protocols, applying the latest pharmaceuticals and being advised by the top gastroenterologists in the world is not enough; a healthy diet and lifestyle must also be followed in conjunction with medical treatment. An unhealthy diet and lifestyle can prevent the carefully and thoughtfully prescribed medications from working properly.

The Starling Diet is named as a tribute to the distinguished British endocrinlogist and physiologist Dr. Ernest Henry Starling (1866-1927), who in 1902, with Dr. William M. Bayliss (1860-1924), discovered and labeled Starling's Law of the Heart, Starling's Law of the Intestines, the Starling Forces, and other digestive processes described in medical textbooks today.
