Biography
My name is Emily Ross. I am 13 years of age and I attend East Wiltshire Intermediate School in PEI. I am in a grade 8 late immersion progam, and I have been since grade 7. I enjoy many sports and I am envolved in karate and field hockey. I participate in inturmurals and I play purcussion in the grade 8 school band. I enjoy listening to music and being active. I enjoy all water sports, and I love to knee board, boat and swim. I also enjoy the outdoors and I love to go camping and hiking in the summer. In the future I am aiming to be a gastrolgist and open my own clinic. I am interested in biology, health and math.

Abstract:The aim of the project was to determine a suitable alternative to replace medication to alleviate symptoms of Irritable Bowel Syndrome, (or IBS). The question posed was “Which types of foods digest easier in the colon?”. My aim was to create a diet to help control IBS. The testing consisted of soaking selected foods in vinegar solutions, which acted as the gastric acids.
