The Quickest Way to Escape a Flare of Ulcerative Colitis 

Your channel is amazing I can’t stress enough to encourage you to keep helping people ! Yeah

Thank you Chris. This is a great starting point of what I need to do. I’ve been struggling and needed this framework to move forward. Thank you

Absolutely best information ever can not thank you enough your more information than a bloody doctor or accident emergency department as well as a specialist I’ve seen thank you thank you so so much you are absolutely brilliant

I am glad to hear your experience

Absolutely extensively explained Tysm

I leaned more from this video then from most of what the Dr has been telling me the past 24 years and I’m not exaggerating. You have a real good sense on how to explain and get people to understand what you want them to learn about this disease and how to handle it. I just subscribed, I’m glad I found this..

Im glad to have read this as currently enduring an agonising flare due to Crohns. Rest and sleep is the only thing that is currently giving me any relief. I have cancelled nights out with friends in preference for rest and am making sure I rest the bowel to allow it to heal. Great advice and hopefully this will subside soon and take its course.

Bro thanks for that info really helpful

Thank you for sharing, really helpful.

It seems as though fasting is a life saver. Helps me so much.I am a firm believer of drinking chaga mushroom tea, lion's mane, kefir, and of course kombucha. Your digestive system deserves it 🙏❤️ any advice for those who get dermatological reactions from flare ups? I get really bad lesions on my face and groin. It's really really terrible. Sorry for the disclosure of such personal info, it's something I've failed to control upon recurrence P.s. you are doing God's work, my friend. Thank you for what you do

Hi, so good information shortly. Encouraged by this video I started once again. After 48 I have no blood, and wc time decreased 5-10 to 3-5 times a day. But it’s only a start. Thank you for really good information and motivation too. Pce!

Hi, I do agree with a majority of what you said in your video here. I've been diagnosed with Crohn's for a little over 20 years. I do agree that the inflammatory response does require 'running it's course' and is yoir body's natural response to heal itself. I personally believe that while yes, one should give the opportunity for the aforementioned, (letting it take its course naturally, while altering diet and nutrition to cater to the flare etc.) there does however come a point where a combination therapy may be of interest and/or benefit to the individual. I am coming off of the first flare I've had in about 4.5 - 5 years. It has lasted 2 months now, however I believe I am at the 'tail-end' of the flare and while the internal bleeding/inflammation hasn't fully subsided, it is far less than it once was. Personally, what I noticed is that I was losing far too much weight and starting to bleed out after 5 weeks. That's with eating gluten/dairy/refined sugar free. Sometimes, pharmaceuticals do have their place, (as much as that kills me to say because I believe big pharma is a disease to the world for the most part). Things like Dexamethasone, in combination with a careful diet, positive mind set/stress management, natural remedies, (guy healing herbs, probiotics, etc) are all part and parcel. Probably preaching to the choir here, however I hope that this will help someone as well. I was personally quite stubborn on introducing dexamethasone to the treatment plan, and if I'm being completely honest/could go back 2 months, I would have started it as part of the process almost immediately, as well as labs etc to check for infections and things of that nature. Lastly/to be clear, I will always favor natural remedies/a clean sensible diet catered to a person's individual health, over any pill of pharmaceutical. They do however, have their place and personally, I don't think it's worth months of mine of anyone's life in recovery, just because your immune response is botched, (Crohn's after all is an auto-immune disease). Thank you for the content and I enjoyed your video! God bless 🙏🏽

Damn!!!!! This was extremely informative!!!!!! Cheers!

I rlly appreciate this video 👌🏾👌🏾

this is very help full

I get it. This guy knows his stuff

Thank you!

Auto immune inflammation is not the same as normal inflammation (like a cut or sprain) it's the body attacking itself, so it can't 'run it's course' you need to managed the inflamation to help uc !

Thanks for the great video. I have started to fast on weekly basis. Which is also part of many prophetic/religious traditions. I think It's in early Christian tradition as weekly Wednesday and Friday fasts. In Muslim tradition monthly (Ramadan) and weekly Monday, Thursday fasts. Apart from allowing body to heal, fasting allows enhanced spiritually/feelings however it probably varies from person to person. My personal experience is that it gives my digestive system a break and comfort, and it gives me mental clarity, better focus and stronger/balanced emotional feelings.

Well said. I healed after 5 years of daily bleeding when I went carnivore in combination with intermittent fasting.

My personal definition of a flare is having blood in my poop while also having troubles going number 2 and feeling like my butt is an open wound.

Thank you Chris and here l am eating parsnips carrots and potatoes nearly every day not counting my favourite macaroni cheese oh my goodness l describe a flare up as bloating and a achey pain in my stomach on the lower right sometimes diarrhea and other times constipation extreme tiredness stiff aching joints dry itchy skin anxiety and depression plus bad insomnia a complete mess really!!! However you have thrown me a lifeline in these recent videos although implicating it all when you feel bad is also a huge challenge l am aware that you understand that yourself from your own experience 👍

I wish I would’ve seen this sooner.

Thanks for the advice. Do you know if Marijuana causes flare ups? Should Marijuana be avoided? It helps with my stress.

Amazing video!! Thank you! How about tofu and tempeh for vegan ?

UC is a very complicated condition and through trial and error the following helps me enormously. I hope it helps others. Cabbage Juice is a good help. It is packed with L-glutamine which helps heal the ulcers. I take 4fl oz after a fast of 24 hours. Once a day on an empty stomach, then after 20 mins eat a keto type diet. Fruit and veggies are an absolute no no for me. No carbs, no sugar including honey for at least 3 days.

So, I appreciate many of you who suffer with IBD are finding my channel through this video. This was information that I put together quite a long time ago, so I highly recommend checking out my more recent videos; which go into detail about how we may be able to influence inflammation of the gut through targeted brain-based exercises - hope to see you there! 💪 I suggest checking out this video first - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JSvpGGt_Ud4.html&ab

Thank you so much, this is excellent! What do you think about eating nut butters? I've had to do this to keep the weight on. I've been eating them a lot.

I swear natural kefir got me out of a severe flare up of UC. Dropped down to chicken soup with a bit of bread and drank at least a pint of kefir daily. I make my own now too.

Whenever I feel bloated, feverish for a day, I would just go to a semi liquid diet especially lentil Soup with rice... if it advance to nausea/vomiting I take colonoscopy prep to flush all the grease inside and then start with steamed rice cakes, lentil soup, boiled chicken, spiced water, curd(most important), boiled rice etc.,

For me a flare is gut pain, losing weight and shitting blood all day

I appreciate the help. I’ve had ulcerative colitis for 10 years and just recently I’ve developed the hiccups and I can’t get rid of them for up to three years now if you have any thoughts, I’m open to suggestions again, thank you for your insight.

I've had Ulcerative colitis for 18 year's and the carnivore diet has put my Ulcerative colitis into remission for over 3 years and I'm off all medications

Inflammed skin I see personally as a big indicator of flareup, it took me 6 years to figure out that acne on my face was due to UC and not hormonal which the derm wrongly diagnosed . During a flareup the acne marks pop up more and remission its calmer but in waiting when triggered. Its been 6 months getting off mezalmine and taking holistic treatment to deal with UC , just in the last 3 months faced my 1st flare up and its still going on . Paying a close attention to your diet and as Chris says and your body will tell you what feels good and what is causing inflammation.

How often do you recommend eating then? I’d like to go on a two meals a day diet, which I also want to do when I’m going to bulk at 4000kcal after this flare up

Hello friends, I had colitis and now it has healed completely, if you have flare then I will advise you something, eat banana, stone apple, they will help you, soon i will make video on it

just a question for you, are you diagnosed with any IBD condition if so your story and tips will really help

I'm wondering if there are any additional considerations for someone who is a non-secretor (FUT2 genetic issue)? Would love your input on this! Thank you :-)

A flare to me is diarrhoea, gut pain , and fatigue. This is particularly bad for me as I am also a student pilot.

Hey there! 😀 What are your thoughts on the differences, and similarities, between IBD and IBS? Thanks.

Recently diagnosed colitis but had it for years , i cant have any form of dairy as it causes anaphylaxis, i carry epi pens. Every thing i eat hurts , my colon becomes so inflamed I get severe constipation. So many diffferent opinions its confusing on what to eat and not eat. I'm doing lots of reading and I'm on a sulfa med and this flare is coming up on five weeks. Very painful to say the least.

When mine gets really bad I can't eat anything but ive lost quite a bit of weight lately was around 250 ive lost 60 pounds in 6 months have to make myself eat some days and still might not hold it down mylanta kinda helps me some but have zofran and something called bentol too its hard to get a doctor to listen to me sometimes but there might not be anything that will help

what if the carrots and vegetables are juiced? are they stil a no?

Any particular foods to help with the extreme urge to urinate that comes with uc?

I am also a type 2 diabetic and fasting is not do able. The diet contradicts the ulcerative Proctitis diet. Im at a loss.

Hi . Are you still in remission?

❤Brillent advice sir on the real side 🙏🏿📖🙏🏿👍🏼👍🏼👉🏽🙍‍♂️Thanks

I had a blood test which showed normal white cell count then day after was crippled in crohns flare again

I am taking omnacortil, salfalazine 1g, since 2 months, my uc symptoms have completed stopped. Facing side effects too

Hello from Miami Florida.. will almond milk help? Thank you 😊

My calprotectin is 1050, the norm is 50 to 100. Been flared for 6 months on prednisone and entivio. Soo many diets for crohns flares contradict each other, its hard to know what to do. Thanks for your posts

Chronic inflammation, especially as autoimmune response (Crohn's) is NOT GOOD and advising to not take immunosuppressants, where biological ones are available, can lead to serious illness and hospitalisation. I am not saying your method won't work in mild cases.

Hi, I’m in a really bad flare. Whatever I eat hurts like hell. So since yesterday I have noy eaten. Only water, tea’s, bone broth, water from vegetables. Basically water liqued only. I’ve got meds, but they are not working (or very slow). Doctors have prescribed stronger ones, but I refused them after seeing the side effects. My question is, what are you thoughts of eating yoghur/kefir in my state. It will hurt 100% eating these, but from seeing your video maybe I need to get these to get out of the flare up faster. And how about raw honey and meats in my state?

Do i need to take medicine still when I do this trick?

Seriously though……….is physical activity good or bad in this situation? I have been told that it robs the energy needed for healing but I don’t understand that…….

So can I still go to the gym if I have a flareup because I read number five don’t put added pressure on your life, pushing your body to the physical activities that it can’t handle Will keep it inflamed?

Heat helps a lot brings blood to replenish

I’m currently going through a flare, I have not eaten because it hurts so bad. Every 4-6 minutes I get a turning sensation in my stomach that feels like Someone is stabbing me or running a brick through my stomach. I get very little sleep and when I do I wake up in a puddle of poop. It’s emotionally and physically draining. I get this “flare” about once a month and it last 6-7 days. I try and drink water as often as I can. But I just don’t know what to do..... I’m scared to go to the doctors because I know it’s going to be so painful but idk....

Hey not sure ur get this but what would u advice for myself being a competitive powerlifter with a flare up and needing to get a lot of calories and protein in a day.

Aren't potatoes necessary as they carry high probiotics and replenish the gut microbiome

I must disagree with you on just letting inflammation taking its course. Yes, it’s the body’s natural response, but you can stop it altogether. Fasting is the number one course of action. Secondly, once you begin eating again you must cut out the carbs completely and cane sugars. Your diet must consist of fruits and veggies. No Dairy products and no wheat. You need Vitamin D and Curcumin AND probiotics are a must! The above list will absolutely take care of UC and IBS.

I'm in the hospital for Colitis flare. And no releif after 5 days on 60 mg Iv of prednisolone. Why? Why is my CRP levels not lowering remains around 20. I am in so much pain. And doing a colonoscopy tomorrow. I'm wiped out.

Flare: constant bathroom breaks, gas, and mucus/bloody stools when bad. Gas and sometimes mucus when not bad.

My flares are basically the worst stomach mainly the lower right section imaginable and a lot of gas

Yea I was past flare up and doing good on raw primal and than I decided to try raw goat soured milk and after 3 weeks of eating it I got myself a huge flare up. And that yogurt was even more than 24 hours. Now I have a another flare in my hands to go through, previous one for almost a year. I want to die at this point I can not stand it anymore.

Does anyone know their vitamin D level? It calms the immune system and most of us are deficient. Get to around 100 ng + and see how you all go.

Thanks a lot man. I wanted to ask how long do i need to follow the strict diet (eating small portions of food and cutting some foods) and will i be able to eat everything again after i heal gastritis?

I have UC. Unfortunately I have to be on blood thinners. Will this help.

Prednisolone I tried for one day thought I was gonna die made me feel awful I'm on cortiment today. I tried fasting and eating meat it does slow it but didn't stop.

Its funny the things that ised to affect ke like dairy doesnt anymore. I find that wheat makes me stiff as a board. Avoiding stress and garbage processed food helps me with My colitis. What affects one person food wise may not affect others.

I am from Trinidad and tobago 🇹🇹 and I have colitis and I need help don't believe our medical personels can't deal with this illness

My crohn’s is very sensitive to any dairy

I can't leave the inflammation alone. it gets so bad it closes off my small bowel. It happens over and over. I have to go to the hospital and they open up my bowel with steriods and send me home. You can't live with a blocked bowel. I don't know what to do.

How about a good whole milk kefir? I can’t find any raw milk or raw milk yogurt in my area.

What about coconut yogurt

Everytime i pooped, may left side hurts really bad. So scared 🥺

Hi Chris! Happy to find your channel!! My biggest problem is to sleep at night. I start with pain befor midnight and goes on until morning and i cannot fall asleep. Any tips for that anyone? (:

We have a cow at our home, so we get milk from the cow. Do I need to boil the milk and consume or without boiling ?

I wish things like raw dairy were more readily available.

How can stop bleeding in ulcerative colitis flare anemia is seen please advise I am from india

My inflamiation healing naturaly 10years 😢😮 only diet kinda helps

I cured my crohns by kicking out sugar and ref carbs, any kind of sugar and veg seed oils, those 3 things and will be fine

That advice sounds like what I already am doing, just deal with it.

What if you arelactose intolerant?

So basically only eat meat eggs and raw dairy?

😊

Do you think getting a colonoscopy done during a flare is recommended?

Hello

wish i didnt have to go work with this.

Thank you so much sir for sharing such an informative video with us, my friend had also been diagnosed with this problem in January 2020, then he started using ayurvedic treatment of Planet Ayurveda, after using their treatment and their diet chart for 3-4 months his condition got improved alot.

I get hives in my arms anyone go through this.. kinda like a scabby rash

I have a reaction even to 48-hours homemade yogurt.

So……dump my girlfriend and eat yogurt and pickels…….got it…..lol

At 50 these comes up but guess what i did to cure it, half glass of gin after lunch n dinner. Then i stop eating beef, chicken, milk n coffee for 2 or 3 weeks, just veggies n vinegar n mayo n fish.

Yes, figure out why you're inflamed, don't just stop inflammation. Auto immune is caused by things, it's not coming out of the blue.

Get rid of the raw milk drink oat milk nd no coffee no tea

Umm what? I could give you a real good counter argument. Some yeah some wtf no.

Stop the cap

Should I consider taking up heroin ? I’m thinking this might just work, keep me off the toilet and help with the pain.

Poop blood every time
