I think that it is important here to know that nobody is personally against anybody else. We are bonded by having a desperate disease. I think that there are some who are willing to accept things quite easily, whereas there are others who want to question things, to find the truth. Eventually, to find the truth is important. There is a possibility that there COULD BE some who have improved AS symptoms, because the disease has naturally gone into some form of remission. That group of patients could be suffering a restrictive diet unnecessarily . Medical research is not going to happen because of funding problems. So it is up to us here in the forum to try and find an answer. That is why, i think the best thing one can do is to try the diet, but also report it to the forum, positive or negative. The forum is currently heavily "pro diet", which may put people off in reporting negative outcomes of the diet.
