I don't know how I missed it back in December. I put myself on a low-carb diet several years ago and shortly discovered that my crohn's symptoms disappeared. As a result, I took myself off all medication for crohn's and the only time I have experienced flares since then have been when I have been too liberal in my eating and resumed consuming too many carbs - baked goods, particularly breads - and my last colonoscopy revealed that my colon looked the best it ever has. Crohn's aside, I know that eating too much or eating the wrong foods make me lethargic, lazy, and unproductive. Hardly the way to live to the glory of God! Great post, Dan.
