Twenty per cent of the UK population suffer IBS-related symptoms. This guide aims to help millions to reduce their arthritic symptoms. It features a diet which shows that a gradual reduction of starch in one's diet can reduce pain in days, to a point where drug usage is reduced and, in some cases, eliminated completely.

Carol Sinclair came to live in Britain in 1979 from her native New Zealand. Married twice with one daughter and three grandchildren, she lives in Wiltshire and Wellington. A writer of both fact and fiction, she has always believed that fact is stronger than fiction. The story of how she learned that her low-starch diet for IBS was, in fact, treating an arthritic condition she didn't even know she had, is an example. She worked in advertising, radio and television before becoming an author, and has published two adults novels, a biography of her husband Ray Harris Ching and a children's novel.
