In my personal opinion (I'm no doctor, but am a nutritionist), IBD is a bunch of crap. I was diagnosed with it by 4 doctors over the course of a year, when in the end, I have gluten intolerance. I would suggest, before you accept this"trendy", catch-all diagnosis doctor's are liking to use these days, try looking at your diet first. Write stuff down and look for patterns pertaining to what you eat and when. Like someone else said, the culprit really could be an intolerance to wheat, dairy, soy or something else. I believe food intolerances is the culprit behind many digestive disorders. If you do determine none of these foods are making you feel any worse, then exercise and a diet filled with lots of fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains and lean protein is the best you can do.
