So, anyways I was checking and found this.

http://www.ihaveuc.com/the-drink-that-saved-me/

"

I’m speaking in past tense because for a few months I’ve been symptom free. I literally tried everything and even contemplated surgery. One day, I noticed my brother drinking this new drink and I decided to try it. (He does not have UC.) I tried the drink and it had a nice taste, so I went back to the place he brought it from and got myself one. I started drinking it pretty regular for the taste at first. Then I noticed my symptoms started to deminish. I was experiencing fewer BM’s at first. Then the bleeding stopped. Then overnight as it seemed, I was going regularly without any UC symptoms."

The drink is: "Marley's Mellow Mood"

Why is it working? Well the reason it's working is because it's infused with Bob Marley's soul in every bottle. Bob was a cool cat so whenever the liquid flows in your intestines, it tells U.C. to be: Cool. Just chill...no need no inflammate no mo'. Everything' gonna be aiiight. So the colon is like: Yeah, it's true Bob. I'm a chillax.

Anyways, go click the facking link and read the story.

somedude

please do extensive drinking research and report back, even if you have to fly to Jamaica to continue research. Do it for Man and Womankind!

On a similar note--I've been reading about why/how beer came to exist and it's because water was too dangerous (cholera, dysentery, etc) so a boiled beverage that had a preservative (hops) was created. The whole family drank it including children, it was fairly low alcohol as a daily drink. There is more to it than that and a long line of ancient drinks but that's the nutshell.

Hops is anti-inflammatory although who knows what is in modern beverages.

Perhaps the lady who posted this did not have UC rather a pathogen that hated this drink. We've been seeing posts about black walnut curing someone else. If it works more power to those people.

edit: this drink doesn't contain alcohol. whoops. Valerian, a calming herb was mentioned. I also saw a report that people got sick drinking it. oh well.

Wait. Marley's Mellow Mood has hops?

Bob Marley:

"
open your eyes, look within. Are you satisfied with the life you're living? "

I'm a go get that drink and live life, cause I ain't satisfied with the life I'm currently living.

I'm just impressed she was able to type such a cogent response in the comment section while driving.

Man, she's a girl. Girls are Arch-Grand Masters level 10 at typing on the Iphones to their girlfriends. So being in the car and typing...it ain't no thang.

I have some of this in my fridge right now. my sister really likes it and says it relaxes her. she skips her Adderall on days she has it. I guess it's powerful stuff. It's too sugary for me though. like pure sugar haha. there's almost 40 grams in one small bottle.

MAN, the cure was sitting in the fridge all this time and you didn't know it. You're looking, but you're no really seeing. You're looking at the shell: "It's too sugary for me though. like pure sugar haha. there's almost 40 grams in one small bottle."

When it really is a piece of Bob's soul. Sometimes, you just have to trust.

SHerlock Holmes once said:

"when you have eliminated all that doesn't work, then whatever remains, however improbable, must be the cure. "

That's a whole bunch of herbal sedatives! Hope no one is driving after drinking that.

Emancipate yourself from intestinal slavery?

Good find. This is actually interesting to me. Just this week My naturopath has suggested that I start adding these teas to my protocol. Guess what they are?

Lemon balm
Chamomile flowers
valerian

All good to calm the gut. Lemon balm also good for the immune system. She also suggests lavender flowers and withania root. I haven't started them yet however.

Three little herbs pitch by my doorstep...

there's also some scuttlebut that Marley's MM includes melatonin which would be a bit iffy if it didn't say so on the packaging.

London lurker, no wonder it makes my sister so tired haha on the bottle, it says you shouldn't drive after you drink it. I had some but it's really sweet. she likes the peach raspberry flavor or something sweet like that. i usually dilute everything i drink with water so i think that's probably why it's like candy to me.

Part of my job at work is Search Engine Optimization (ranking higher in Google and Bing)for a legitimate business. This site is a screaming Affiliate marketing site... they are trying to get your cell phone number, email address, they have an affiliate link to Amazon for the drink (which they are making money on), they are trying to sell an E-book and some banner ads...pure money making site.

I wouldn't believe anything that you read on this site, they are probably paying someone in the Philippines or India to write some of or all of these articles....that's just my opinion about sites that look like this site. I could have something like this up and going within a few weeks if I wanted to and making money.

They're always sampling that at Whole Foods. I've never tried it, but I think DH did once. I don't need to drink my calories, so I rarely have sugared drinks. The Estate of Bob Marley is involved with this one.

I bought some last night. Only the 16oz bottles have valerian root. The 12oz "citrus" cans only have camomile.

FYI.

Great! Another cure to add to the list. And who says there is no cure for UC?? Poppycock!

I wish I really had been keeping a list because I have forgotten some. The ones that spring to mind:

-20 bananas a day
-Stop **********
-THINK (remember that one?)
-Bob Marley's soul
