I had ulcerative colitis from I was 18 until 46 which is a chronic inflammation with blood in the faeces. I switched to the carnivore diet and within some months all my symptoms disappeared. This was also confirmed with a colonoscopy in a hospital. My brain fog is also gone.
I used to be really strict but now I am more like 90-95% carnivore, but I try to get the carbs from potatoes, carrots and Nuts. I aim for under 50-100 grams on carbs a day since I lifts weights and do some CrossFit.
Info:
Ulcerative colitis (UL-sur-uh-tiv koe-LIE-tis) is an inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that causes inflammation and ulcers (sores) in your digestive tract.
- linuxftw 4y agoI was having the same (different age range, early 30's) symptoms, and I was able to eliminate my problems by cutting out coffee entirely. I can still drink caffeinated tea without issue. When I first quit coffee, I cut out all spicy foods and beans. Now I eat spicy foods and beans occasionally without issue. Naturally, the doctor that did my colonoscopy didn't recommend trying any of this, just wanted to slap me on some new drug that messes with the immune system, no thanks.
- carlmr 4y agoCan you drink decaf coffee or is it something else in the coffee?
- linuxftw 4y agoIDK. I cut out all coffee. I had been drinking some decaf previously because I limit my caffeine intake.
- ac29 4y agoI think its generally the acidity. Low-acid coffee exists for people that have issues with normal coffee.
- dendrite9 4y agoSome people make coffee with eggshells to help reduce the acidity. I started an experiment recently with my girlfriend to keep eggshells to see if it helps her. I hadn't looked for low acid coffee, thanks. That's probably also worth trying.
