So I have been drinking this shake for the past week or so in the AM and it has made my tummy feel so much better.
Here's the recipe (it's very easy):
1 banana
2 scoops of peanut butter (if your stomach tolerates it, otherwise you can leave it out)
tsp of honey
1 cup of chocolate rice milk or 1 cup of fresh goat milk
handful of ice and blend! SOOOOOO good and refreshing to the gut! :o) enjoy!

It would have me writhing in absolute gas cramping and agonising pain.

Soothing...uh, not for me.

Careful with those bananas......they'll catch up with you eventually if you overdo it.

What do you mean? They actually make me feel better.

I have one a day. I think they effect some people differently than others. I've always had success with bananas...even when I am having my period, the added potassium really helps.

Actually bananas if you can tolerate them are quite good for Crohn's and UC. I will research later tonight to see if I can find the link, but I read an article about how good bananas are for the colon or something in them, I can't remember. But when I flare I start eating at least 2 a day and it always seems to help!

I think you will find that those of us who cannot tolerate bananas have IBS as well as UC.  I do and can't eat bananas - gas/stomache/etc.  I do eat peanut butter every morning on toast for breakfast - white toast - no problem.  I hate rice to I would not want that - maybe soymilk for some or just skim for others - sounds good!
