In this study the complete dietary histories of forty cases of irritable bowel syndrome were examined in infants and children aged 6 to 42 months.
It was found that the majority (92.5%) of these patients had been on high carbohydrate, high protein and low fat diets.
Advice was given to change to a diet that increased dietary fat and lowered carbohydrates and even proteins intake. This resulted in the irritable bowel syndrome been cured in 76% of the patients.

Strip or cut leaf from stems. Discard stems. Cut collards into one-inch wide strips. Add collards to beef broth in pot and stir well. Taste broth and add salt if you think it needs more.
