The intestinal inflammation and pain has gone

"Hi Gary

The stuff you gave me a month ago has worked.  The intestinal inflammation and pain has gone as well as the unpleasant symptoms of ulcerative colitis.  I feel much better now.  I just have to try and stay calm because I think stress triggers it. 

When I had colitis before, I had to go to the specialist and was on all sorts of drugs and steroids and it took ages to see any benefit.  A year I think.  This way is much easier."

This feedback downplays just how difficult it can be to get on top of nasty health issues like ulcerative colitis.  The key to success is not getting too tied up with chasing and suppressing symptoms, but with trying, as best we can, to identify the root causes of the ill health.  Everyone is different in their own quirky ways and it is for this reason that one-size-fits-all therapies are more often only partially successful.

In the end success comes to those who are patient and take their time.  Unlike drugs nutritional therapies are slow and subtle and, thankfully, without nasty side effects!

If you have a chronic health issue and tired of taking drugs with unpleasant, harmful side effects, contact me and we will see what can be done with regards to your nutrition and lifestyle:

Healing Crisis? Irritable bowel? Crohn’s disease? Ulcerative colitis?

"These are not incurable diseases. But you do need to know what you can eat while you allow your gut to heal. In the first stage, because your gut is damaged, it will be easily inflamed and unable to digest food and absorb nutrients for you. Eat nothing but soups, stews and broths made from bone stocks until the crisis has passed. These have many minerals and other nutrients in an easily absorbable form, and also contain gelatine, which has magical water holding properties. This enables your digestive system to be soothed at the same time as allowing transfer of these healing minerals and nutrients to your bloodstream. Then you can start to re-colonise your intestinal system with life-supporting organisms. Natural probiotics like colostrum, raw milk, whole milk, yogurt and sauerkraut will all help you to do this."

Ulcerative Colitis, Deep Vein Thrombosis, Pulmonary Embolism and Clexane

I suffer from ulcerative colitis since 15 years. Since 2002 I have been diagnosed with ITP. Last year I developed DVT and extensive PE. I have an IVC filter implanted since March 2008.

I am taking ayurvedic treatment for colitis and low dose anticoagulant (Clexane injection) for DVT.

I read on one of the ITP Forum about the combination of Vitamin C, Pomegranate juice and Wheatgrass juice as a successful treatment for one ITP patient.

Do you think this formula can do the trick, increase the platelets level?  Would this combination be harmful in any way, like increase in platelets could trigger another DVT?

I take
Clexane injections 40 mg daily
Nattokinase (NattoSEB) 100 mg twice a day
Cobadex (Vitamin B complex)
Folic acid 10 mg
Hollarhena Antidysentrica (herb for colitis)

Boiled Eggs and then Butter + sugar sandwich for breakfast
Green vegetable (oily and spicy) + Rice + green salad + some sweets (Indian traditional) for lunch.

Gary responds:

• DVT = Deep Vein Thrombosis
• PE = Pulmonary Embolism
• ITP = Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura
• Clexane = Blood thinner

The wheat grass and other supplements you are taking should be just fine from a safety viewpoint.  Whether they have a measurable benefit on your blood platelettes is another matter.  The main thing to watch for is if any supplements augement the actions of the blood thinner.  If they do then ask your doctor to reduce the Clexane accordingly.  Please read my articles about deep vein thrombosis.

I think all of your health issues are inter-related.  They indicate that you are simply in poor health and poorly nourished.  It is possible that you are suffering a degree of adrenal fatigue which is a leading factor in a weak or dysfunctional immune system.  Please read my articles about adrenal fatigue.  There is also a Cytokine treatment for Ulcerative colitis and ITP (contact me direct about this).

As an observation, there is a lot of work to be done on your diet which is far from ideal.  Supplements are wonderful when prescribed according to need but not when the diet is poor.

Please have a look at my pages on diet and nutrition and use the Keywords tab to the right to search for dietary advice on any number of conditions related to your health issues.  It may be worth your while doing a liver and digestive tract detoxification programme.  The Herbal Detoxification programme would best suit you.  It comes with an excellent booklet full of advice and delicious recipes.  It is not an extreme programme.
