Hi

Has anyone given the Juice diet by Jason Vale a try? I watched the super juice me documentary which is on YouTube for free and there was a guy on there who had ulcerative colitis and he had it quite bad with constant flare ups. They put him on fresh fruit and vegetable juices and smoothies for 28 days and after his colitis had gone. They incorporated red cabbage juice with Apple everyday along with the normal programme and it worked for him.

I've never really gone for it with juicing but did know of the obvious health and nutrition benefits of extracting the minerals and vitamins from the fruit and veg leaving behind the fibre which is what ulcerative colitis sufferers need to avoid in a flare.

I started researching cabbage juice and there's quite a lot of success as it contains the amino acid glutamine which is very healing for the bowel.

I decided to go for it! I got the Jason Vale app on my phone and started 6 days ago. Im going to go for the full 28 days to give my bowel a well deserved rest. It's not easy as I miss food but it's mostly cravings as I can juice when I like. I've noticed less blood, no mucus, less cramps and I even had a firmer stool. I think this is the way to heal ulcerative colitis the natural way as steroids in my book are a road to nowhere with the eventual operation to remove the colon which I'm not too thrilled about!

I'll let everyone know how I get on and if it works. I've had ulcerative colitis now for 10 years. I'm really hopeful and feel like this is really going to work.

If anyone has tried juice? Is thinking about it? Has had success with healing their ulcerative colitis through juicing? I'd love to hear from you.

:-)

Ive done long juice fasts but had no success. You need a plan for after the 28 days. Your disease wont just go away from drinking juice.

No I'm not a spammer thank you, been a long sufferer of ulcerative colitis for years and have seen other people have the same results from juicing and then doing a raw food diet.

Everyone's different but the healthier the better. :)

Also I've never been on medication and have always dealt with it naturally as I don't really like drugs, that's just me.

Banana girl what diet did you use after your juicing? I'm not sure what to start with after I come off the juices?

I'm not sure how a fresh all natural diet full of nutrition can wreck your body? You do detox on juice but that's just purging all the crap that you've put in your body which everyone admittedly does. Well I'm feeling good for the first time in months, my skins softer, my energy is so much better in the mornings and strangely I'm thinking more clearly as I always used to feel foggy headed.

So for me so far so good. I'm determined to get better this time no half baked stuff. And sometimes vegans can be very unhealthy as they eat pizza and crap not wholesome food, it's wise choices.

I'm on day 7 not a huge amount of time spent out of my life to work on my ulcerative colitis lol. I'll let you know how I get on!

This is a good link from a normal guy from the US who was on the documentary. Changed his life.

You look at the world from your own prejudiced viewpoint and are unable to look at things with an open mind. You have been indoctrinated and brainwashed into believing in your way of life and can't comprehend that it doesn't necessarily apply to all (especially in relation to UC). You only have a small handful of posts and I have been on here long enough to see tens of thousands, many from people who have tried juicing with no results with some of those reporting that they got much worse and it's not because they ate pizza and 'crap". In fact, there are several who developed UC who had led your lifestyle and several others who came down with UC immediately after changing to this lifestyle. Are you naive enough to believe you are the first person to post here with this idea?

Many UC'rs are low on the digestive enzyme DAO, which helps metabolize dietary histamines. Fruits and certain veggies are high in histamines. The riper the fruit the more histamines it has. This can actually cause a histamine overdose and worsening UC symptoms. When juicing you are actually digesting higher concentrations of these things than if you just ate them whole, making things even worse. None of that explanation even takes into account that you may have allergies or food intolerances to certain veggies and fruits in particular so yes, a fresh and all natural diet full of nutrition can wreck a UC'rs body. Everyone is different. You can't ever automatically assume that what works on one will apply to many, be it meds or juicing.
