Why dry fast? Is drinking water bad for the gut?I would try supplementing boron and betaine, and do intermittent dry fasting.
I can explain why I think that it could help if you are interested.

Yes, definitelyS
So, do you think that the best carb sources for people with digestive issues are juices with no fiber, sugar, milk and honey (no starch, no fiber)?
I was on the SCD for about 10 years it helped me initially however, I could not tolerate the nut and coconut flours. I found that a starch free diet is effective.Hi everyone,
Could you please help me figure out how to resolve ulcerative colitis?
Diet helped me avoid biologic but there's still inflammation and symptoms.
Things that I've tried:
-Carnivore diet (helped reduce symptoms but no energy)
-Animal based diet with white rice and honey (reduced symptoms with energy but no complete remission)
-Helminthic therapy is (2+ years, no effect)
-Low dose Naltrexone (does impact my sleep but not my AI)
Also, sleep, stress and lifestyle factors are under control and optimized.
I don't do well with raw milk and dairy unfortunately + raw milk is illegal here in Canada, also sugar makes things worse.
I'm all ears and ready to try any suggestions ?it's been a hell of a ride!
Thanks in advance
for anyone, because fiber and starch feed bacteria. Look at this: Fungi / Bacteria, Not Autoimmunity, Cause IBD (Chron's, UC) And IBSSo, do you think that the best carb sources for people with digestive issues are juices with no fiber, sugar, milk and honey (no starch, no fiber)?
I used to be on remicade too, for a few years, until I started to form antibodies against it and got nice vasculitis from it. Georgi/haidut has talked about that it's tnf alpha blocking is good, however its toxic to the thymus, which was a surprise for me, but makes sense now that I look back. I used to be constantly sick with "flu" aka low grade endotoxinemia. Probably some fungal issues too. But it did help induce "remission" where I could eat anything and have no pain, and my inflammatory markers were good. Although I had some flare ups. With remicade/humira if you go off of them you might form antibodies and not be able to come back on them if things go bad. Georgi talked about ketotifen and that it could also block tnf-a and leukotrienes without the toxic side-effects. Its an old school antihistamine and might be hard to get but I got some from romania. Haven't tried yet, as Im dancing with bacteria and fungi now. I suggest you try to stabilize your intestines as much as you can when on remicade. That ***t cannot be taken forever.I also have a question re UC. i have been on Remicade for 6 months and now feel fine and i am very keen to stop but the doctors are using fear tactics to keep me on it citing other patients who have stopped in the past and have had bad flare ups leading to forced colon removal surgery.
Ideally i would like to stop the remicade and continue with a morning and evening mesalazine tablet and eventually come off that as well. My thinking is to have a colonoscopy or endoscopy to see whether the intestinal situation is indeed better and use that as leverage with the doctors.
Are there any tests or biomarkers i could check as to whether the UC is healed and/or in remission? Any other advice from those who have refused biologics and cured themselves? Many thanks in advance.
