Conquering Ulcerative Colitis WITHOUT SURGERY : Prologue

This is extremely unscripted, unrehearsed, and off-the-cuff, so please forgive the grammatical errors and the occasional realignment of the train of thought. However, I ABSOLUTELY HAD to post a video after becoming DISTRAUGHT over the amount of videos and comments on YouTube from people suffering from Ulcerative Colitis (of which I've been diagnosed with a chronic case). This is the response of a person who is ABSOLUTELY CONVINCED that UC can be overcome, WITHOUT invasive surgery, WITHOUT a J-Pouch, and WITHOUT living your life connected to a washroom.

100% raw vegan diet of juices and blended foods is the cure for ulcertive colitis. symptoms will go away within a week to a month, you have to not do heating foods- cayenne, garlic or onion.

Well, if this worked for you, then congratulations, I'm happy for you. I had to interject on this because when I first went to my naturopath, he _insisted_ I eat meats. Not only that, but he insisted I eat _red_ meat, which was something that I was against (and that he, normally, would be against). Why? He explained it was because I'm Type O (the traditional "meat eater", so he said) and that of all that I couldn't eat, I should eat what I actually _could_. Chicken stayed, in came pork and beef.

Mind you, I do strongly believe in juices... Especially freshly-pressed juices, _especially_ red cabbage juice (in small doses, blended into other fruit/vegetable juices). Seen my seventh video in this series?

Thanks for taking the time to post! Glad to hear you're doing better... I figure people who've recovered from UC (or who have gone into remission) have very active lives... but if everyone took the time to just leave a quick message to say, "Hey, I'm back in great health," _that_ would be sending out a message to everyone to say there's hope. Not to make light of people's suffering, but there's a lot of the suffering side of UC on YT, how about we build up some of the success stories thru text?

bye bye colitis bravo

I even got remicade (it worked for 2 infusions, but then it stopped working) and this whole anti-immune drug stuff was just not right at all. I wasn't able to sleep at all till november, was on the toilet 30+ times a day and now I'm able to sleep till 10am and my colon is really happy. Also believe me - stop anything stressrelated. It's not good anyway, but it's especially bad for the colon.

[oldjimi]

I was diagnosed with UC in 2006, had a really really bad 2009 and almost got my colon removed, was and i'm still on prednisolon since late 2008, but i'm now on a really small dosis. I got a non-yet-approved medicine since october last year and i'm now almost fine. The problem is definitely not my immune system BUT a defect in the intestinal mucosa. This defect lets bacteria get where it shouldnt be and that's why this whole mess actually happens. I'm now even able to eat whole grain food again!

Thanks for your compliments! Drugs (try to) mask the symptoms without treating the root cause. You can believe you're doing everything healthily (as I was) without realizing that much of our diet is heavy on the same ingredients over and over again (wheat, corn) and filled with additives and overprocessed food (starches and "protein isolates" (aka "maybe MSG"). The typical North American is unaware of what eating healthy really is: eating a _true_ variety of ingredients. Best of luck to you :)

[burgmail]

Thanks Chut0y, and best of luck to you! Pills _may_ and _may_ _not_ work, but either way, they usually (try to) mask the symptoms instead of providing a cure. My personal belief with UC is that we've been brainwashed into a type of diet heavy on the same ingredients (wheat, corn) and excessively refined ingredients (can you say "cornstarch" and "(insert vegetable) protein isolate"?) and our bodies end up not being able to handle it any more. We don't know how to eat healthily anymore: variety!

good for u man, keep on keepin' on!

[kirbythehun1]

when i would eat vegan steamed foods i wouldn't feel as good as eating all raw foods, raw foods have enzymes which digest food in the body.. enzymes are what give the colon time to heal when.

things that helped me are slippery elm bark, mint, juices, blended green smoothies- no salt, cayene pepper hurt me pretty bad, you can even do raw cacao butter which makes you feel incredible but I highely sugest you google and find you're ayurveda constitution anyway i'm just stoked i'm better

:/

eating raw food in the whole form is too rough, eating salt will hurt the wounds obviously, and heating foods seems to be what cause colitis by all ayurvedic doctors(mind that no else claims they know a caues) ayurveda says all uc is cause by a "pitta imbalance" too much heat in the small intestine(emotional heat and heating foods) i never understood that and after three years finally eliminating all the heating foods all symtoms cleared up almost instantly within a month.

but even

[kirbythehun1]

yea.. i'm gonna have to disagree with the naturopath on the meat even though you're a type o have been told to eat meat by a number of doctors too, don't know if you've seen david klien's book on healing colitis

raw vegan food is pretty radical but it seems to be a miracle

you just have to do it right, if you're bleeding juice and do smoothies.. with cooling foods cucumber, celery, cilantro, no heating foods that will work 100% of the time

i messed up a bunch
