ulcerative colitis diet

Ulcerative colitis, also referred to as colitis, is a chronic disorder in which the mucous membranes which line the colon become inflamed and develop ulcers. Symptoms of ulcerative colitis are bloody diarrhea, pain, gas, bloating, and/or hard stools. Since the colon muscles have to work hard to move the hard stools the colon wall can bulge out into small pouch-like projections called diverticula. It is in the diverticuli that stools can gather and cause gas, bloating, and pain.
Several factors need to be addressed when talking about an ulcerative colitis diet: foods, supplements, and stress.

foods to avoid in the ulcerative colitis diet

The ulcerative colitis diet involves eliminating the following foods from your diet: wheat, rye, corn, milk, peanuts, whole nuts and seeds (eat only ground ones such as almond butter), oranges, grapefruit, and refined white sugar. For information on some of these common allergy-causing foods click here.

Other food instructions:

Eat melons only if you have an empty stomach (first thing in the morning, for example). Limit the consumption of, or eliminate, pork, beef, and lamb.

release stress

Find an activity that is relaxing for you such as taking a 20 minute Epsom salt bath daily or meditating 15 minutes twice daily.
