Hi Everyone,

I have had mild UC for over 15 years and when I moved from Maryland to Arizona I was fortunate enough to meet Dr. Heather Wolfson who helped me with my UC in A HUGE WAY!!!!

I was doing daily enemas as well as 16 PENTASA per day....within 3 months I was off of all medication and that was 13 years ago, and have never looked back...thankfully!!

I highly recommend the cave man diet and using things such as ULTRAINFLAMUX and Healthy Priobiotics which I can share more information on, they are not in front of me at the moment...

The Cave Man diet, basically, is eggs at breakfast, salads w/ only olive oil and salt, plain meats and only certain vegetables like broccoli, no fruit, no soda, no caffeine, only water..... Feel free to reach out to me if you have more questions, I would be happy to help you smile

Tony

It's all well and good to be a caveman if you are, but what of us non-caveman? What shalt we eat? We don't live primitive-apestyle

I have posted this several times before. A "caveman" type of diet has been shown to be beneficial in IBD in a number of small studies. The diet has many different names: Paleo, Paleo IAP, SCD, IBD-AID, GAPS- the results are the same as are the basic tenets of each diet...cut out processed foods and eat foods with only one or two ingredients and see a reduction in IBD activity. I'll be the first to admit that I do not follow any of these diets at the moment and find them extremely difficult to adhere to. I tried SCD for over one year and could not draw any conclusions from that experiment.

Studies show improvement in gut dysbiosis, reduced inflammatory markers, improved symptom control. Unfortunately, there are not enough large studies to say anything for sure, but to me, there is enough there to say everyone should at least try an all natural style diet if they feel their medication is not enough. Google all of these diets and their studies to draw your own conclusions.

See the link below regarding paleo-IAP.
