Julianne,

This is not a question directly related to the Zone, but I have seen many of your posts and am impressed with your approach and results.  So, I was talking about what I have seen you post, as I was chatting with a co-worker. 

My friend has IBS and has recently cut out sugary-sweets out of her diet, and noticed an improvement in her symptoms.  I talk to her all the time about the Zone, but she does not ever seem to be interested much in following the diet, at least she has not been interested until now.

I mentioned some of the things that you have recommended regarding gluten, avoiding those agricultural grains, soy, legumes.  She asked me if you would be willing to post a more detailed list of foods to avoid and foods to concentrate on... so I thought I would post this for you here. 

If you would be willing to help me out in advising her, could you post some info?  Or, if you want, you could email me:  cranberrycat@hotmail.com. 

Thanks!

(I will see if I have time to go back to older posts, because I know you have given more specific information in previous posts, but I have been so busy lately, just never seem to have time to do the research!)
