I am so super confused by all the info that exists out there regarding natural ways to relief Crohn's symptoms and start to heal the gut. What natural remedies are you all using? I'm just so lost!

I am gluten free. I take flax seed oil in addition to my meds. I also take 2.5 mg of psyllium every day.

I take fish oil, curcumin tablets, and probiotics. If I'm having trouble then I also take l-glutamine and aloe vera juice. I see an acupuncturist regularly. Like the medications what supplements help vary with each person.

I take fish oil and frankincense resin. The frankincense really works for the gas and bloating, it starts within minutes of chewing it. There's only three types of frankincense you can take internally, royal, green and yellow hojari. It took me along time to find a good source, Google "the frankincense store" they have every type avalible. If you research frankincense you'll see a bunch of stuff about it helping with digestion problems there's a lot of stuff it helps with. There's a reason its been around for thousands of years. This is the first natural supplement where ive actually been able to feel it helping almost immediately. if you do use frankincense you have to drink alot of water because it draws it out of your body(not a good idea if your dehydrated) .Good luck and hope you find some healing.

I started the SCD diet in 2007 and after 7 months of fanatical dedication to the diet abnd eating home made yogurt,  two large rectal fistulas were completely healed up, and all my other symptoms of CD were gone like blood and mucus in my bms and pain in my side. Since being on the scd diet, I have not had one flare or one symptom from CD since 2007. The only drug I take is pentasa.

Read the book "breaking the vicious cycle"  .  You have nothing to loose and all to gain.

Make sure nothing you eat has GMOs in it. Go all organic, it is expensive but wayyyy worth it. I am not on any medications after I switched by diet to non-poisoned food. I think that is why there is such an increase of disease and cancer. Research it and you will see. We should not be this sick!!!!
