I have told I have Ulcerative Colitis and have very few options to correct as the Meds are some I have Allergies to so the Doctors has said to add fiber and try Steroids. Has any body had any luck with Herbs and a different approach to a cure. I don't mind fiber but I am unsure what kind of fiber and how much and will this help or am I stuck with this for ever. Any help with be appreciated.

I am sorry to hear that you are dealing with it. I have had it for years but have been able to control it over the last few years without dr prescriped meds.

Acidophilus - normalizes the intestinal tract ( take as directed on laberl

1 Tablespoon of Psyllium in water or juice on an empty stomach in the morning

Vitamin A with mixed caotenoids - aid in mucus membrane healing

Red Clover, Slippery Elm, and Dandelion tea are benefical

Drink Nettle Tea Infusions - lots of iron and minerals

Drink a lot of water for flushing

Proteolytic enzymes - vital for proper digestion and to control inflammation

Remember to take care of yourself..... Rest and relax

live well,
