Has anyone ever tried therapies for UC such as hyperbaric chamber, Vitamin C and K3 in 100:1 ratio, juicing?

I've tried SCD diet and a variety of supplements. I haven't tried the things you mentioned though. Let us know how it goes.

hyperbaric can help heal fistulas, and maybe mucosal healing - but it cannot alter immune response

Everything's been tried here with varying results at least a few times. What UC meds and treatments are you currently using?

I did hyperbaric oxygen therapy (1.3 atmospheres, 1 hour, oxygen mask) 3 times per week for 10 weeks, 30 hours in total.

Previously my UC was moderately controlled by Entyvio. Colonoscopy looked good except for minor proctitis. But I still had problems with urgency, frequency, pain. I hoped HBOT would help with those remaining symptoms.

Absolutely no effect on my symptoms.
