Why should IBS - Colitis - Crohn's sufferer's read this?

Question

I'll answer my own question here as I wasn't sure how else to get this information out there for everyone to read and judge for themselves.

I strongly urge you to read this story. It's my own battle with severe ulcerative colitis. I'm not a Dr. & I'm not selling anything. This is just valuable information.

I suffered for years and years before making a life or death decision. What I learned saved my life, and if you suffer as I have, hopefully you'll look into the same answer that I found & start feeling better yourselves.

It's a miserable illness and there is no official cure. I can tell you this though...I have it as severe as one can, all throughout my large intestine up to the ileium, and today...I can eat ice cream and fruit with the skin on it, and thai food, and so can you. Please read on & get well soon.

Thanks CumQuaT for sharing that. I too have had the ulcers in my mouth, in fact I had those for the first time 2 months before my initial break out of Colitis, but it was passed off from the Dr as stress (considering my life at the time it made perfect sense) He explained the occurrence similar to "hives" (which one can get when extrodinarily stressed.)

This is also why I'm a firm believer that in time Dr's will come to acknowledge that stress (along with other factors) indeed can "cause" Crohn's & Colitis...not just cause the relapses.

Deal with the stress factors in your life if you want to help deal with these diseases at least.

As for coffee...well... I'm drinking some now, lol...with cream I might add :-) Carbonated beverages are the only thing I shy away from, not entirely...but mostly.

Answer 1

So what's your question?

Answer 2

Oh how I feel your pain! Your story sounds alot like mine except for the abuse part. I have had my share of bad times in the hospital, the last time & had a ng tube & told the nurses if they didn't take it out of me right now I would do it myself, needless to say I did it myself! My dr. was irrate. I just laughed. I totally believe stress if a big factor, any body who says different is a complete QUACK!!! I have tried herbal meds, & just about everything out there, nothing has worked for me so far. I had a foot of my ilieum removed in 1999, & was in remission until May 05. I am currently taking remicade infusions until that quits working my next option is another resection involving another 8" removed. IBD Sucks! I hope they find a cure soon!

Answer 3

I have had Crohn's in my mouth, oesophegus, stomach large and small intestine right through to the illeum for eight years. And you're right. It is absolutely horrifying, and you are very generous for sharing your success story and information. Any help that the community can get is a blessing :-)
For me, I cut caffiene and alcohol out of my diet and I went into remission within two weeks. I'd like to share this, too.

Thanks!

Go to www.GoXanthones.com and listen to the audio link by Dr John Edwards on Crohn's disease. He uses mangosteen juice to treat some of his patients.

If you'd like to try mangosteen juice and/or find out more information go to www.mangosteendiscovery.com. It's all natural, has no side effects and tastes absolutley wonderful. Fully patented. definately worth a try as opposed to meds that are experimental, expensive and have massive side effects.

Answer 6

This products helps with leaky gut syndrone, ulcerative colitis, since it healts the gut. Maybe will help you with your condition.

Peptizyde

Peptizyde is a powerful state-of-the-art enzyme blend designed to completely digest gluten and casein proteins commonly found in wheat and dairy products. Dr. Wakefield believes that many autistic children incompletely digest these proteins, creating opiate-like molecules from wheat and dairy products during digestion. These opiates then leak through the intestines into the blood, finding their way to brain and flooding the brain with opiates which interfere with proper neurological development. Peptizyde is designed to break down gluten and casein molecules preventing the formation of these harmful opiates. Peptizyde is so powerful that a capsule of it mixed in a tablespoon of yogurt will liquify the yogurt in seconds.

Zyme Prime

Zyme Prime is an blend of 10 different enzymes that address the digestion of other food components, including proteins, complex carbohydrates, and triglycerides. It appears to provide some benefit for children with sensitivities to phenols, which are problematic for a significant number of autistic children. Zyme Prime designed to be used with Peptizyde, providing complete digestion for the food components that Peptizyde does not digest. Used together, all forms of Peptizyde and Zyme Prime provide full-spectrum digestion.

AFP Peptizyde
AFP Peptizyde™ was developed in response to parents request for a high DPP IV-containing enzyme product that did not include fruit-based enzymes such as papain or bromelain which some children are sensitive to. Like Peptizyde™, it is a combination of three different proteolytic enzymes isolated from fungal plant sources. It can be used instead of Peptizyde by children with sensitivities to papaya or pineapple. If your child is sensitive to papaya or bromelain, then you would use Peptizyde exclusively and not use Zyme Prime as it also contains fruit enzymes.

No-Fenol
No-Fenol™ was developed in response to parents request for an enzyme to help children with sensitivities to foods with high levels of phenols, such as tomatoes, apples, or grapes. Some children exhibit behavioral problems or physical symptoms such as red ears and cheeks, after eating foods with high levels of phenols.

Recommended Dosages
Typically, 1 capsule/scoop of each of Peptizyde and Zyme Prime per major meal or major snack. For more detailed information, please see Enzyme FAQs. For the chewable flavored forms of the enzymes, 3 chewable tablets is the equivalent to one capsule, and 2 chewable tablets is the equivalent to 1/2 a capsule. For No-Fenol, 1 capsule/scoop is to be used when the child consumes foods/drinks containing high levels of phenols - this dose may be adjusted higher or lower, according to the amount of phenols consumed and how the child reacts to No-Fenol.
