I agree. Do you have IBD?Absolutely incredible.
Unfortunately I do. It comes and goes, peating has helped a lot. But I still get flares. This therapy looks like it actually healed the patient, instead of just putting the inflammation into remission.I agree. Do you have IBD?
we've seen an extraordinary study showing vitamin E enemas cured ulcerative colitis without side effects.
What has helped your IBD so far, could you share?Unfortunately I do. It comes and goes, peating has helped a lot. But I still get flares. This therapy looks like it actually healed the patient, instead of just putting the inflammation into remission.
Sure. My flares are more linked to stress than a particular food irritation. However, I do much better when I have lots of insoluble fiber and I keep things moving by any means necessary. Sounds counterintuitive - with inflammation you would think you would want zero fiber - but when I have inflammation I lose peristalsis and get constipation. The food sitting there just irritates it and makes it worse.What has helped your IBD so far, could you share?

I’ve tried a lot to improve peristalsis. Thyroid activates adrenaline too much which immediately halts peristalsis for me. Cascara makes me too crampy and gassy. I have found triphala and Thorne GI encap taken between meals works well. Milk of magnesia at night is also helpful. I recently started taking jujube which is supposed to help mental stress and improves peristalsis but haven’t seen any improvements yet. I read somewhere it has quinone actions similar to cascara, but I haven’t asked Peat about it.
To soothe and clean the intestines I do warm water or saline enemas and eat lots of coconut oil. Oral vitamin e helps too. Charcoal every once in a while if I’m producing a lot of mucous but have to be careful of increased constipation.
Daily carrot salad does genuinely help a lot, but isn’t enough to stop a flare from extreme mental stress. Peat also recommended oat bran to me which works, but the fiber in raw carrots is better IMO. I also find that the consistency and fiber content of boiled sweet potatoes works well with my system. Stokes purple sweet potatoes are great if you can find them.
Just my experience, anyway.
No, haven’t tried that. But my A and D levels have both been confirmed low with blood tests. I use 8 drops estroban daily. Haven’t rechecked labs since I started but it’s only been about 4 months.Do you supplement high dose Vit D ?
Thank you for sharing, @nikkmm. If you try the coconut oil enema, let us know about your experince please. It would be great if you could update on your experiences with it in this thread, so that everyone could follow and learn.
By the way, taking magnesium might help with bowel regularity. It is a laxative, and it also reduces stress, increases sleep quality and energy levels.

I think the Vitamin D is a good idea. Peat also recommended I bring my levels up. I'll increase my dose. Interesting that Coimbra recommends avoidance of dairy and calcium while on the 10,000 iu/day of D he recommends.
