Greetings all.
I have had chronic neck pain forever. I'm used to it and I am medically supervised. However, this post is about ulcerative colitis. I am watching my partner suffer at its merciless hands. It lets her up for air for a day, and then BAM, its back, wreaking havoc with acute pain after eating. Can anyone help me with things that have worked for you or someone you know who suffers from ulcerative colitis? I was just thinking PeptoBismol would be a solution, like pop one before eating, but then the Pepto package says don't take with ulcers!
Thanks gang!

usually each patient needs to discover which foods work the best for them. taking a multivitamin helps get in any nutrients missed due to a restricted diet. for me a low residuals diet with low insoluble fiber and eating smaller meals with plenty of protein, lots of protein shakes, and staying well hydrated helps keep issues to a minimum

Thanks! I relayed this info to her and it sounds like a great plan!
 
This just in: I read on a UC forum elsewhere that people have had positive results using nicotine. Well, to be precise, they had bad reactions when they quit using nicotine. Still, this makes me wonder whether nicotine could be of assistance to a UC patient during "flare-ups?"

nicotine is an interesting one with UC. some physicians are using nicotine patches or enemas as an add on treatment to mesalamine. but mesalamine remains first line. nicotine does reduce inflammation and has shown positive results for UC particularly when combined with mesalamine

my diagnosis actually came after I quit nicotine, I have started again and it seems to reduce my symptoms but definitely follow a physician's recommendations. they typically won't have you start nicotine if you aren't already using it and will try to manage the inflammation with other drugs
 
My Sister got a fecal implant,healthy shit,she barely eats now but is happy and looks fantastic,I mean glowing ,stunning,slim yes but whoa

I had life threatening UC for close to 10 years. Standard treatments didn't work. I refused colectomy and requested MAID more than once, but was able to pull myself through before pulling the trigger. UC destroyed my entire life. I call it the lost decade now. Because my gut is permanently scarred, I still suffer from disability, like an inability to digest certain foods, and my stress tolerance is lower. But at least I'm otherwise healthy.

I used Dr. Pravda's reductive theory of disease to put myself into permanent remission.

One of his patients made this site and it pretty much explains everything:

Redox therapy is the only real way to get UC into remission. The body's own excessive productive of oxidants (mainly hydrogen peroxide) corrodes the bowel wall and leads to ulceration. Reduce the hydrogen peroxide to water, and the UC goes away. There are only certain antioxidants that can enter cells directly, where the hydrogen peroxide is made to excess. I flared non-stop for the better part of a decade, and after taking RDLA, my UC went into remission within 2 weeks. I was also on prednisone at the time, but was able to start my taper and get off of it. Prior to that, I had spent thousands of dollars and lost years of my life chasing other natural treatments, and useless modern medicine.

If your husband's UC is bad, he may need to continue immune suppression for the first while, just to get the inflammation under control. But RDLA is the treatment.

The GI doctor community is not allowed to consider this treatment because RDLA is simply the reduced form of RLA, which is a generic supplement that has been on the market for more than half a century. It can't be patented into a drug form, so they can't make money off of it, and they're not going to spend billions researching it. You just have to figure it out yourself.

I have enough RDLA to last a lifetime. I take a single 50mg pill per day with food and I remain in remission. It's clown world how simple it is, given everything I had to go through with modern medicine (including the expense) to get to this point.

Nicotine works because it partially inhibits Complex I of the mitochondrial electron transport chain. The ETC has four major complexes, and at the end of the chain the spent electrons get reduced to water (H2O). The process isn't perfect, and sometimes instead of H2O you get super oxide instead (O2-). The enzyme Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) converts superoxide (O2-) into hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), which is still an oxidant but a less dangerous one to cell structure. H2O2 then gets reduced to harmless water (H2O) by glutathione peroxidase.

The problem with UC patients is that glutathione peroxidase is somehow impaired. Either there is a genetic mutation making the peroxidase less effective, or there are other secondary causes (like heavy metals) blocking its function. The H2O2 then builds in the cell, and diffuses passively out into the bowel environment, causing UC because hydrogen peroxide damages the gut wall. Then gut bacteria and other stuff that shouldn't come into contact with the immune system seeps through the gut wall, and you get the immune/inflammatory cascade. Immune cells (like neutrophils) show up to address the damage, they themselves using hydrogen peroxide to break down dead tissue. So it just gets worse and worse until you're in trouble.

The level of peroxide damage depends on the person's antioxidant capacity. Mild UC probably still has some glutathione peroxidase capacity. Severe UC has very little. Hence why some people can modify their diet and get better, because the source of oxidation is the diet. While others like myself have severel cellular level oxidation happening that requires a strong medical antioxidant to fix.

In reality this toxic H2O2 affects the entire body, but because the colon has the highest oxidation rate in the entire body, that's where inflammation gets the worst.

If you introduce a strong reducing factor via an antioxidant into the cell, which provides protons H+, it allows antioxidant enzymes like glutathione peroxidase to regenerate, so they can then reduce peroxide to water.

The reaction is 2 H2O2 --> 2 H2O + O2

Ulcerative Colitis is an oxidative disease. Anything that increases oxidation in the body (stress, crappy food, emotional turmoil, pollution, drugs, etc) can increase hydrogen peroxide and cause UC to flare.

Hi Foreigner,
Thanks so much! Where have you found to be the best place to find RDLA?
