I have ulcerative colitis and have had it for many years. There are three things I have cut out - it is red meat, beer and brown liquor. Hope this is helpful for some!
Fish and chicken. Stress has a major impact on the gut flora and such as well.
Anyone else struggling with the stomach? Struggling especially with dinner, eating a little too, I have to run to the bathroom. Anyone have tips and advice?
Camilla: I struggle a lot with that too. Reacts specifically to lactose and too much gluten. Uses lactose-free and gluten-free where possible.
Unni: Then try and mix a tablespoon of potato flour with water. About half a glass. Responds to lactose and smoked foods. Must use lactose free and keep away from smoked foods. Try drinking biola and buy lactic acid pills at the pharmacy. Also noticed that too much pork aggravates the stomach. Withstands poor fat, sugar, acidic things and acid (carbonic acid). As for nuts, it is also very different from person to person. In my case, I can't eat nuts that irritate my stomach.
Solveig: Stay away from sugar, coffee, dairy products and use probiotics as well. There are probably many types - I use Bio-dophilus (8 billion lactic acid bacteria).
Nadine: Take an intolerance test. I found that the cause of stomach pain was two powerful intolerances. Didn't realize it was just the two foods because I ate them everyday.
Chris: I struggle with milk protein, gluten and everything else. General indigestion. Occasional diarrhea, occasional constipation. So daily. Nuts are sweet, fresh vegetables and pork the same. No one can tell me why and it's frustrating. Has diabetes, FM, thin-fiber neuropathy, etc. autoimmune diseases.
Can recommend as much fish as possible, I myself only eat fish for all meals from mackerel in tomato to saithe, cod, trout and salmon. The sweet potato and spinach can and are recommended. Nuts, pizza, a lot of bread do not work for my stomach at least, nor a lot of banana - one goes well.
Stress is no no. Activity helps and for the stomach, walk at least half an hour every day. Has mild to moderate Ulcerative Colitis.
