>>> GOOD
>>> GOOD MORNING EVERYBODY. IT IS WELLNESS WEDNESDAY AND
WE HAVE GOOD NEWS FOR KIDS
THAT SUFFER FROM CHRONIC
STOMACH PAINS.
STOMACH PAINS. DR. DAVID SUSKIND WORKS AT
SEATTLE CHILDREN'S AND HAS
BEEN RESEARCHING TREATMENTS
FOR KIDS WITH US CONDITIONS
AND HE IS ADVOCATING A UNIQUE
DIET THAT HAS PUT SOME KIDS IN
REMISSION WITHOUT DRUGS.
>> IT IS AMAZING.
WHAT DIET DOES TO THE BODY FOR
MANY CONDITIONS IS REMARKABLE.
WE HAVE TO LOOK AT IBD OR
INFLAMMATORY BOWEL DISEASE AS
AN IMMUNE ATTACK.
>> THAT'S WHAT IT IS.
IT'S AUTOIMMUNE.
IT'S AUTOIMMUNE. >> ABSOLUTELY BUT THERE'S
SOMETHING THAT TRIGGERS THE
IMMUNE SYSTEM. THAT IS THE
MICRO-BIOME.
MICRO-BIOME. >> THAT IS A GOOD THING, NOT A
BAD THING.
BAD THING. >> IT HELPS BREAK DOWN FOODS
OVER THE LAST CENTURY THEY
HAVE CHANGED. THE ENVIRONMENT
HAS CHANGED.
HAS CHANGED. OUR DIET ENVIRONMENT HAS
CHANGED.
CHANGED.
CHANGED. IT CHANGES WITHIN THE MICRO-
BIOME AND BECAUSE OF THAT
CONDITIONS LIKE INFLAMMATORY
BOWEL DISEASE HAVE INCREASED
OVER TIME
OVER TIME
OVER TIME >> HOW COMMON ARE THESE
PROBLEMS WITH KIDS?
>> THEY ARE NOT UNCOMMON AT
ALL.
ALL.
ALL. OVER
ALL. OVER THE LAST 50 YEARS WITH
CROHN'S AND COLITIS HAS RISEN
DRAMATICALLY.
DRAMATICALLY. WE SEE OVER 900 CHILDREN AT
SEATTLE CHILDREN'S
SEATTLE CHILDREN'S >> SO YOU WERE THE LEAD ON THE
STUDY ABOUT THIS.
YOU HAVE HAD SOME PATIENTS WHO
HAVE COMPLETELY GOTTEN OFF
MEDICATIONS AS A RESULT OF
CHANGING THEIR EATING.
>> THE FOOD YOU EAT CHANGES
YOUR MICRO-BIOME.
YOUR MICRO-BIOME. THE DIET WE ARE LOOKING AT AND
IT CHANGES THE MICRO-BIOME IN
A POSITIVE WAY.
IT MAKES THE IMMUNE SYSTEM NOT
ATTACK THE BOWEL.
USING THIS DIET WE HAVE
ACTUALLY MADE PEOPLE FEEL
BETTER.
BETTER.
BETTER. >> WE GET INTO THE SPECIFICS
WOULD THIS BE A GOOD THING
ANYONE TO DO TO REDUCE
INFLAMMATION OR PROBLEMS OR IS
THIS SPECIFICALLY TARGETED TO
CERTAIN TYPES OF IBD?
>> AS RESEARCH GROSS WE MAY BE
ABLE TO REASSESS ANOTHER
CONDITIONS AS WELL.
>> LET'S START WITH COOKIES.
COOKIES ARE GOOD FOR YOU I AM
SO HAPPY.
SO HAPPY.
SO HAPPY. >> WHEN WE THINK OF DIETS WITH
THINK OF RESTRICTION. HERE WE
HAVE PHENOMENAL COOKIES.
THESE COOKIES ARE DELICIOUS AND
THEY ARE ADJUSTED. INSTEAD OF
USING PROCESSED SUGARY IT USES
HONEY AS A SWEETENER.
IT CHANGES THE MICRO-BIOME AND
IT CHANGES THE BACTERIA TO
GOOD BACTERIA THAT DO NOT
ELICIT AN IMMUNE RESPONSE.
>> SO JUST GETTING RID OF THE
REFINED SUGAR BUT TO ALL OF US
A WORLD OF GOOD.
>> EATING HEALTHY IT DOES NOT
MATTER IF YOU HAVE A MEDICAL
ISSUE OR NOT.
EATING HEALTHY AND FOCUSING ON
WHOLE FOODS IS ALWAYS AN
IMPORTANT IDEA.
IMPORTANT IDEA. >> THIS LOOKS DELICIOUS.
TELL ME ABOUT THESE?
>> THESE ARE CHEESY CRACKERS.
AGAIN A DELICIOUS ITEM AND
VERY SIMPLE TO MAKE.
IT USES CHEESE AND ALMOND
FLOUR.
FLOUR.
FLOUR. THE SUBSTITUTION HERE IS THE
ALMOND FLOUR.
ALMOND FLOUR. >> GETTING THE GLUTEN OUT.
>> IT REMOVES ALL DRAINS AND
BY REMOVING ALL OF THE GRAINS
IT CHANGES THE BACTERIA IN THE
G.I.
G.I.
G.I. TRACT AND INSTEAD IT USES A
ALMOND FLOUR AND COCONUT FLOUR
TO MAKE DELICIOUS CHEESY
CRACKERS AS WELL AS THE
BREADS.
BREADS.
BREADS. >> YOU CAN STILL HAVE CRACKERS
AND BREAD THEN YOU HAVE A
HEALTHY FAT.
HEALTHY FAT. >> THE FATS ARE NOT
NECESSARILY A FOCUS BUT
DEFINITELY FOCUSING ON
VEGETABLE OILS IS A GOOD
THING.
THING.
THING. >>
THING. >> SUGGEST IN THIS CASE WE ARE
TRYING TO GET RID OF THE
GRAINS.
GRAINS.
GRAINS. >> I TAKE YOUR WORD THAT THEY
ARE DELICIOUS BUT TRUST AND
VERIFY.
VERIFY.
VERIFY. >> THESE ARE SOME IMPORTANT
COMPONENTS. IT IS A WHOLE
FOODS DIET SO LOTS OF FRUITS
AND VEGETABLES BUT THERE ARE
OTHER IMPORTANT COMPONENTS AS
WELL.
WELL.
WELL. THESE ARE CHOPPED NUTS.
NUTS AGAIN CAN BE USED TO MAKE
BREADS THREE FLOWERS AND
BANANAS.
BANANAS.
BANANAS. WHEN THIS DIET CAME ABOUT IN
THE 20s AND 30s IT WAS CALLED
THE BANANA DIET BECAUSE IT
REALLY FOCUSED ON BANANAS.
I GUESS THERE WERE A LOT OF
EXCESS BANANAS BACK THEN.
THEY PROVIDE A CARBOHYDRATE AND
PROVIDES AN INGREDIENT FOR
MANY OTHER RECIPES.
>> DOESN'T MATTER WHAT KIND OF
NUTS?
NUTS?
NUTS? WE
NUTS? WE HAVE WALNUTS HERE.
>> YOU HAVE SEA SALT HERE.
DOES THAT MATTER?
>> I THINK IT IMPORTANT TO
REALLY NOT RESTRICT AND MAKE
SURE THAT WE ARE ENJOYING THE
FOODS WE EAT.
IT IS CINNAMON AND I BELIEVE
THOSE WERE USED IN THE
COOKIES.
COOKIES.
COOKIES. >> THEY ARE LOOKING FANTASTIC.
SO FRUITS AND VEGETABLES.
>> SO IT REALLY FOCUSES ON
FRUITS AND VEGETABLES AND THAT
INCREASES THE FIBER WHICH
AGAIN CHANGES THE TYPE OF
BACTERIA TO THOSE THAT ARE
BENEFICIAL FOR US.
>> WHO ARE THE BEST CANDIDATES
FOR THIS DIET?
>> INDIVIDUALS WITH MILD TO
MODERATE INFLAMMATORY BOWEL
DISEASE OR ULCERATIVE COLITIS
OR CROHN'S ARE THE MOST
APPROPRIATE INDIVIDUALS TO USE
THIS DIET.
THIS DIET. FOR THOSE INDIVIDUALS THAT ARE
HAVING ISSUES WITH WEIGHT OR
THOSE WHO HAVE VERY
COMPLICATED DISEASE THE DIET
ITSELF MAY NOT BE THE BEST
THING FOR THEM.
>> AT LEAST THIS IS HOPE FOR
THAT CATEGORY.
THAT CATEGORY. CAN YOU FIND ONLINE?
HOW DO YOU ACCESS THE
INFORMATION.
INFORMATION. >> ALL OF THE INFORMATION IS
ONLINE.
ONLINE.
ONLINE. YOU CAN GET THERE THROUGH THE
SEATTLE CHILDREN'S WEBSITE OR
