CURE FOR COLITIS?


Mon, July 16, 2018 8:12 AM

HI Everyone,

I was diagnosed with colitis just before my 25th birthday ( 4 years ago) 

I had the usual symptoms: Blood & Mucus in stool, dirrhea, cramping, urgency.

+ i developed severe cystic acne

I was prescribed asacol 2x per day.

I started to do research and tried to find the cure. Is been a long way since but i stopped my meds 2.5 years ago- no blood/ flare since.

THE "CURE" 

I started juicing a lot- carrot + cabbage juice ( freshly pressed) is great- i was drinking this every day at 1x sometimes 2x per day.
Add some ginger root + tumeric root.
Skip cabbage if you cant handle it for now.
Test drinking only celery juice + other green juices

I stopped dairy, gluten, sugar ( only fruits now), bred, coffee, alkohol etc - this + juicing and eating anti - inflammatory diet. + lots of berries( strawberries, blueberries) Bananas  are great- soothing in smoothies 

But you need to try what fruits, berries, veggies work for you.

For the past 2 years i was eating veggies with lean protein (chicken + salmon)

Now for 9 months i have been reating raw vegan- to cure my acne as i dont have colitis symptoms ( some urgency and fatigue sometimes but otherwise ok) 

But i have acne and i cannot take accutane so i need to cure it naturally- 
Ive done juice fast- really good for colitis to give digestive system a rest!

Check documentary " Fat sick and nearly dead"
Check out FullyRawKristina, Montreal Healthy Girl ( Youtube), Dr Robert Morse on youtube.

+ research and test- there is NO one cure but i belive that eating anti-inflammatory diet is a must if you want to heal.

 Smoothies are great with fresh berries and fruit you can tolerate, cooked, steamed or raw veggies, fasting on juice, ( carrot juice is very healing + cabbage juice cures ulcers)

If you need more info write to me in Instagram @Rawfoodel- im happy to share what i know and glad if i could help someone- thats why i write here <3

I belive its possible to cure colitis without medication- it takes time, consistency and determination.
