RE: probiotics--> I use MetaGenics UltraFlora DF (dairy free) at it is really awesome. It definitely helps. UFDF has the highest concentration of live organisms you can get, but you have to go thru a supplier i.e. a naturopathic dr or someone (I'm not sure if you can order online).

Wow. I am overwhelmed with the responses and support. Thank you so much guys, you have given me much to work with and look over. yay!
Have read David Klein's book though i thought it heavy on fruits which didn't really work for me, though I agree with some of the principals of natural hygeine. Def agree with doing the green juices - those work best for me esp. to calm down that sweet tooth a

Thanks for the comments.
I was able to go off the meds for a year via juice fasting and eating 80 - 90% raw ... unfortunately I had a bad flare recently and am back on the meds (probably due to poor eating habits as well as stress), though I am committed to getting myself healthy as naturally as possible.
Harmony, I requested a copy of that book and looking forward to reading it. Sometimes I

I've read conflicting advice on fasting and juice fasting for people with ulcerative colitis. Does anyone know if juice fasting is too cleansing is considered 'too harsh' for a tender colon?

Thanks guys.
I actually have David Klein's book and that is how I got on this path to begin with a few years ago... I guess I am just wondering if people think that UC is 'curable' b/c I am a bit confused about it right now after all that has happened. I am not invested in acting like a victim whether the disease is curable or not - all there is to do is manage myself and my health. So the qu

Is there anyone on here with experience being raw or other diets (macro?) with U.C.? I'm interested in your stories.
While in remission, natural hygeine / 80% seems to work really well for me, but I am coming out of a flare and the drs have me eating a low-residue diet (low fiber) - not what I want or think is good in the long run but it's too stressful on my system right now.
For a while I r

Like a lot of people finding out about raw food was a big wake up call for me as well. When I was 16 I had my gallbladder removed and a year later I was 'diagnosed' with ulcerative colitis and told I would be on meds the rest of my life.
Now, 8 years later I am clean of all drugs and healed. I left behind allopathic medicine and started listening to my body. It was a slow process, but necessary

Hi EarthAngel et al.
Update.
Sooo things are going well with RAW... I think I've stabilized at 80%-90% for the past two weeks and I'm having fun with it. I'm actually to the point where I can't eat a whole cooked meal without feeling gross - so I think that is a good sign that my body is telling me what it wants. It really hit home for me seeking a raw chef to cater! We would do it ourselves b

I'm posting this press release and the link to www.pcrm.org - there is more info and some good videos on there too.
It's not raw, but it's vegan and it might be easier to transition to vegan first and then to raw if you have good results as vegan ... of course you can be high-raw vegan, that wouldn't hurt!

For my family of two we try to stay around $80/wk but often go over .. esp when it is time to purchase oils. The kicker is superfoods if you eat them b/c you have to order them, around here anyway in Central NY state. The really nice thing is that here we have bunches of organic farms and farmers markets and CSAs and Asian markets {even sell durian there!}, also there a few places to get bulk

Hey everyone -
I did not drop off the face of the planet, just off the raw bandwagon. David Wolfe got me any my hunny back on it now. We are reading his book the Sunfood Diet Success System. I highly reccomend it as it is totally wholistic and powerful stuff. I esp. like the chapter on Food and Karma.
I'll update you when I have a chance. Right now I am at work putting the June magazine togeh

fuzzysox - I live upstate not in the city ... it's not like NYC at all. the good thing is I live in a rural city ... I mean there are organic vegetable farms and farmer's markets all over the place... and also lots of hunters, hicks, meat eating immigrants ... I don't know. that's a snapshot. I'm still looking though! I finally found another Animal Rights activist!

raw apple cider
whole mustard seed
ground mustard seed
black pepper and sea salt
mix these things to taste (it WILL be spicy) in a sealable jar. You let it sit out so it ferments a bit. Also put a punctured clove of garlic in it to infuse it.

I've noticed that many people on this site eat very simply with 80/10/10, so this one might now be for you. If you like to try new things though this might be for you!
Adapted from the Complete Book of Raw Food:
I made a smaller batch than here, but this gives you the idea

2 cups almond pulp
1.5 cups shredded coconut, ground to fine powder
3 tbsp honey

Ok so I ended up doing a juice fast most of the day yesterday after eating lots of cooked food Friday. Then I had the raw sushi to break the fast.
Also had the most amazing coconut lime tart I will post it on the recipes section.
Also had a succesful experiment of making seasoned sprouted peanuts. I had raw pnuts but I don't like how they taste so I spouted them, seasoned them with chilipowder

the same thing happened to me about going into the hospital after being raw.
