Diet success anyone?

Digestive health

Hi all,

I've suffered what they thought was IBS for many years. I collapsed last year twice and was diagnosed with UC. I'm now on Mesevant xl, which isn't too bad for side effects.

Has anyone helped or cured their UC with diet please? I've had some success, but I am curious about other stories?

Thanks

Hi, I've had ulcerative colitis for years and have kept it under control with diet until a few weeks ago when I started to bleed badly. I,m sure mine was down to diet and not resting more.i was given suposatries that helped, I suggest you go and see your GP or consultant. Hopefully you feel better soon. X

Hi thanks. I eat vegetables fruit rice can't eat bread, nuts or seeds due to diverticulitis, with the UC I can't eat fried foods..it's very difficult. I make sure I know where the toilets are when I,m out. I use a salufaulk tablets and suppositories.they all help.

I got the books below and my diet is still early trials I cut bread sugars fried foods etc out, and a helpful book from hospital helped loads dispite dr's saying eat what you want diet doesn't matter!!  And I am not rushing as much to the loo, high protien low carb for me and fruit with skin off and cooked helps too
