If you are reading this, you are looking for the answers on Crohn’s disease. He was told that there is no real cause for it; therefore, consequently, there is no cure. The only option left is treatment with powerful pharmaceutical drugs.
Most likely you are confused. You are afraid of pain, bloody diarrhea, fatigue, the possibility of colon removal, cancer, and the side effects of the medications you are taking. In the jungle of the Internet, thousands of websites promise and sell a miracle cure. The situation with Crohn’s disease is extremely complicated. Even medical authorities in this field write “Seventy-five years after Crohn’s characterization as a single entity, we are still in the dark.”
Let me share some ideas about the causes and possible non-drug treatments for this disease. All I will tell you is information from the medical and statistical literature, the practice of doctors in other countries, and my own 40 years of experience with Crohn’s disease. Yes, we do not know what the real cause of this disease is, but some facts can clarify this problem.
All medical statistics show the growth of autoimmune diseases, including Crohn’s disease, during the last 60 years, mainly in North America, Europe, New Zealand and much less in Southeast Asia and South America. We cannot blame the genes; they cannot change in 60 years. Some scientists regard Crohn’s disease as a disease of the rich and link Crohn’s disease to Westernization.
They told him that Crohn’s disease is an inherited disease, so he didn’t have a chance to escape it. The ultimate role of genetics is only 15%. I personally believe in lifestyle inheritance when people from generation to generation undergo cesarean section, formula feed only and eat unhealthy food, drink alcohol, smoke, receive the same vaccines and infections, take antibiotics, NSAIDs and live or they work. in the toxic environment, etc.
Not surprisingly, lifestyle inheritance is responsible for many disorders and medical articles and books prove it. Therefore, 85% of harmful environmental factors play a role in the development of autoimmune diseases, which have increased over the last 60 years.
They told him that Crohn’s disease is an autoimmune disease when the immune system goes crazy attacking a person’s own tissue. Normally, the immune system is designed to protect humans from invaders such as harmful microorganisms and toxic substances.
There are three common immune system disorders. The immune system can be weakened after viral, bacterial or parasitic infections, chemotherapy, immunosuppressive drugs, radiation, stress, AIDS, heavy metal toxicity, low adrenal glands and thyroid, etc. Second, the immune system can work very high. We can see it in many allergic diseases, food and chemical sensitivities, vaccines, chronic infections, etc. All these factors can trigger abnormal immune responses in predisposed people.
Unfortunately, there are no specific tests for Crohn’s disease; therefore, you should exclude alternative diagnoses, such as intestinal and parasite infections, diarrhea after antibiotics, Clostridium difficile diarrhea, celiac disease, lactose intolerance, exacerbation of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), diverticulitis, NSAID side effects , Candida yeast overgrowth, small intestinal bacterial overgrowth-SIBO, colon cancer and more.
Helping Ulcerative Colitis and Crohn’s Disease patients for many years, I firmly believe that the solution to managing autoimmune diseases is to simultaneously control digestion, dysbiosis (Candida yeast overgrowth, small intestine bacterial overgrowth-SIBO) and heartburn. Chronic of the body.
The key to healthy digestion is healthy pancreatic function and the proper balance of friendly gut flora. Unfortunately, the beneficial gut flora of modern men is diminished and altered. If the baby did not get a mother-friendly intestinal flora through natural childbirth and the breast milk or the baby receives numerous courses of antibiotics from the first year of life, the beneficial intestinal flora is replaced by yeast, harmful bacteria and parasites.
These nasty invaders irritate and inflame the walls of the small intestine, create a leaky and porous intestine, ferment undigested food, and produce large amounts of toxins. This can put a great strain on the immune system with its overwork that is manifested by allergic reactions and allergic diseases. The allergy always exists in Crohn’s disease; is a leading player in all autoimmune diseases.
The modern diet with unhealthy eating habits, the consumption of “dead” food products, sugars, white flour, bad fats and oils, processed cow’s milk, can deplete pancreatic function. The pancreas has to produce more pancreatic digestive enzymes to digest “dead” food without natural digestive enzymes. Poorly digested food passes through the leaky, porous intestine into the blood, placing additional overwork on the immune system.
Furthermore, wheat and milk were introduced into the human diet only 10,000 years ago. From then on, the digestive systems did not adapt well to lectins; protein in grains and beans (for example, gluten) or casein (protein in cow’s milk). Poorly digested lectins pass through the porous wall of the leaky gut into the blood system, adhere to body tissues, and mimic healthy cells. The confused immune system by attacking lectins also destroys healthy intestinal cells. Many scientists believe that it may be a central mechanism for triggering a “crazy” immune response, especially in predisposed people.
There is also some evidence that Crohn’s disease is an infection, and Mycobacterium avium, which causes tuberculosis in cows, may play a role in the development of Crohn’s disease.
The question arises. Can Alternative Medicine Methods Help? My answer is “Yes” because these methods focus not only on the aggressive immune response and inflammation, but also on the possible causes of the disease, the subsequences of the disease, and the treatments. Many of these methods are time-tested, scientific, and clinically based. Some are widely used by doctors in other countries. They are:
1. Strictly lectin-free, anti-Candida, separated and alkaline-forming diet
2. Drink healing mineral water prepared with genuine Karlovy Vary thermal spring salt
3. Super Strains, Bile Resistant Probiotics
4. Herbal formulas, herbal extracts and teas.
5.High quality and potency variety of nutritional supplements such as minerals, trace elements, vitamins, amino acids and essential fatty acids, various supplements for immune support, reducing pain and scaring, controlling Candida yeast, bacterial and parasite overgrowth , healing the intestinal lining and neurotransmitter precursors
6. Acupuncture: Chinese body, Japanese scalp, Russian earlobe, Korean wrist-foot, cupping, electro acupuncture
7. Medical hypnosis, deep relaxation, personalized self-hypnosis CD, etc.
Some of these healing methods are practically unknown in the US For example, one of the unknown methods is drinking healing mineral water for ulcerative colitis or Crohn’s disease. For more than 500 years, European doctors sent their patients with chronic diarrhea or bloody diarrhea to the small Czech town of Karlovy Vary to drink healing mineral water from the hot spring.
Realizing that the mineral content of this water is a main therapeutic ingredient, Czech doctors suggested producing the real Karlovy Vary thermal spring salt. By dissolving this salt in water, everyone can produce healing mineral water at home. Through scientific research, Karlovy Vary Healing Mineral Water
• Normalizes the acid-alkaline balance
• Improves liver and pancreas function.
• Increases the quantity and quality of digestive pancreatic enzymes
• Promotes the growth of friendly intestinal flora
• Heals the damaged intestinal wall, reduces inflammation
• Restore the balance of water, essential minerals and trace elements
Almost all patients with ulcerative colitis or Crohn’s disease are aware of probiotics and may already be taking them. On the other hand, not many people realize that mixing probiotics with antibiotics, immunosuppressants, and steroids does not work or may have a potential risk.
We can make the analogy of the gastrointestinal tract with the garden. It is difficult or impossible to grow roses if the garden is full of weeds, pests, rodents, chemicals, and the soil is drained and poor. The roses alone also have to be of acceptable quality. No one can improve the condition of the garden without the help of a qualified professional. Restoring friendly gut flora is vital, but it is not a quick fix and self-treatment.
Based on clinical studies and my experience, it is not practical to achieve stable remission without restoring normal function of the pancreatic gland. The poor function of the pancreas, the low quantity and the poor quality of the pancreatic digestive enzymes aggravate all autoimmune diseases; I explained that in my eBook. Chronic bloody diarrhea plagued humanity for millennia. Therefore, ancient doctors faced this problem some time ago and gained experience in treating chronic diarrhea mainly by healing foods, herbs, and acupuncture.
So Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis are the result of the interaction of multiple factors between genetic, immunological, environmental, digestive, infectious triggers, and possible medical triggers. Accepting that, I don’t believe in a panacea or miracle in this case. Only hard work and cooperation between the patient, their friends, family, PCPs, and licensed and knowledgeable physicians can lead the patient to a stable remission. The customized and simultaneously performed combination of natural, holistic, and non-pharmacological alternative medicine methods can be very beneficial for people with ulcerative colitis or Crohn’s disease.
The goal is to improve pancreatic function and complete digestion, restore friendly intestinal flora and normalize acid-base balance, regulate immune response and inflammation, and replace deficiencies.
Rush doesn’t help. Abruptly stopping medications can cause a rebound effect that can make things worse. Therefore, after we help achieve clinical remission, the patient and their physician will decide on the safe withdrawal of medication with the following overlapping by using more non-pharmacological methods.
