Nopal water works.

I agree NSSG, but it's free so why not try it eh!?

Some regulars here have had pretty good luck!

Day 6. Still doing good. I find that response is very dose dependent. One should drink right amounts of the water to get the right effect. I'm still trying to adjust the dosage. I've been drinking 1/2 liters per day.

My poops are getting solid, I've been defecating far less then before, less abdominal pain, less blood, I've gained 1 kg in 6 days which is impressive.

Me and some others would like to hear your scope result. Let us know if it is ok for you.

Gas can be a sign of healing for us.

While it wasn't totally clear, it was pretty darn good! I am happy!! Nopal really does work! Here's the post about the scope:

Ya let's all trash this idea, keep guzzling prednisone, and all have a colectomy party. maybe we can get a group discount. Seems like some of you need to get over yourselves and stop hating on the results he's been able to achieve using a natural and very safe treatment. Considering that prickly pear is native to Cali, Texas, Arizona, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and part of Colorado, this treatment could be free for about half the country. I am a rancher and I can assure you that nearly any land owner would let you cut down their cactus. They would likely be ecstatic to find someone that has use for it. I'm not saying it works for everyone but you can bet I will be trying this ASAP. I guess some of you would rather have had him not tell anyone about this. Sorry for ranting but I'm so tired of hearing the negativity. Maybe you've tried some natural alternatives and they didn't work so you gave up. That's fine, if you're tired of experimenting and want to rely on conventional medications I can totally understand. But why try to shoot down folks who have the willpower and desire to exhaust every single possibility to achieve their health goals? I think it's absolutely stupid to see folks going on remicaid without trying any natural alternatives but if they choose to do that I'm not going to post a negative response or shoot down their decision. If that's what they decide then I absolutely hope it works wonders for them and support them 100%. Everyone wants to get caught up on the word cure. I don't give a flip about what words we use. Bottom line is are your symptoms gone? and are your scopes clear? Never once did this poster refer to it as a miracle cure but if it works this well I'd say it IS a miracle for them. Stop the negativity, open your mind, and be happy that our friend here seems to be achieving and maintaining remission naturally. That's all.

I leave them in the entire time until I drink all of the water.

Previously in this post I said that I drink 12 oz in the AM and 8 oz in the PM. My water doesn't get that thick -- it's definitely thicker than water, kinda slimey but not grossly so, flavor is sort of like cucumbers. It's possible you are either using more nopal or less water than I am. I use about 1/4 pound of pads (I have a little scale and weigh it because the pads come in all different sizes) in 2 qts of water. Once the water has been consumed I toss the shells and make a fresh batch

Aren't you afraid of getting some of these small spines down your throat? I had some in my fingers. They are hard to see, but you can feel them.

I stopped taking it again! Dang it!!! I just think this is great and need to stick to it! Gonna make some fresh soon!

Yes, I just cut the pads (approx 4-5 oz in weight) into pieces (after cleaning them well if they haven't already been cleaned) and put them into 2 qts of water. Soak it overnight in the refrigerator and keep the pieces in the water until you drink all the water. I don't remove the skin, but I do split the thicker pieces down the center to expose more of the inner flesh. Once I drink all the water I toss the rest and make a new batch.

I don't know what species I get. It's what is carried at the Mexican grocery store I buy them from. It's what they use to cook with so whatever that is. I talked with them one time about this and they wrinkled their noses when I told them how I make this. Apparently when they cook these they cook them in water to get rid of the slimey stuff and then eat the skins -- just the opposite of when we do! I think when they cook it the stuff gets really thick so I don't blame them for not wanting to drink it. When I reach the end of the pitcher of water the water is getting thicker and I wouldn't drink it if it was any thicker than that.
