These cookbooks cover ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease and also extend to related digestive conditions such as irritable bowel syndrome and other IBD-related disorders noted in the book descriptions.
Some titles provide explicitly allergen-free recipes (noting freedom from the top eight common allergens), while others include adaptable options and plant-based substitutions for vegan, gluten-free, and allergy-conscious diets.
Authors include people with lived IBD experience and credentialed nutrition professionals — for example, a Crohn’s disease survivor who is a certified health coach and holistic nutritionist, and a registered dietitian (MS, RDN, CSO).
The listed cookbooks are published in English, and many entries specify a suggested age of “22 Years and Up.”
Many include practical planning aids such as shopping substitution cards, sample menus and worksheets, symptom trackers, and meal plans with shopping lists (for example two-week or 28-day plans with daily shopping lists).
