You deserve something special that's kind to your delicate digestion. This easy, not-too-sweet treat will satisfy your cravings, provide a light protein boost, and won't weigh you down. Rice Cake Candy Treats
Melt the chocolate chips and optional coconut oil in a small bowl in the microwave or in a very small (preferably nonstick) saucepan over very low heat.
While the chocolate chips are melting, spread the top of one of the rice cakes with the peanut butter. When the chocolate chips are fully melted, stir well, then drizzle half the chocolate over the peanut butter in an random pattern. Spread the remaining chocolate over the top of the other rice cake, then sprinkle with the seeds and/or nuts. Serve at once or chill briefly in the refrigerator or freezer, just until the chocolate is firm. Makes 1 or 2 servings.

One last question: I know you state in your book that a gastrointestinal infection can instigate or worsen IBS, but parasites contribute to it?

It's important to make sure the parasites have been fully eradicated. Parasite infections can mimic IBS symptoms. That said, post-infectious IBS is real and can last from a short while to many years. So it's very possible the infection you contracted instigated your IBS.
