This Crohn's Disease and Colitis Recovery Guide is based on the goal to achieve certain clear and specific signs of normal (or ideal) digestive health. Such signs of a clean gut are virtually never mentioned in the medical literature or sources and books related to alternative medicine. People with Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis experience severe digestive dysbiosis with pathological microbial films on the linings of the large and small colons with following symptoms: - a heavy yellow or white coating on the tongue - frequent urination and reduced urinary volumes (less than 300 ml) - flatulence, burping, ear buzzing, and offensive fecal smell - use of large amounts of toilet paper due to excessive soiling. Someone with inflammatory bowel disease always require use of toilet paper, while the degree of soiling correlates with the severity of their digestive problem. Most people also require toilet paper. This is an indicator of their poor digestive and general health. While monitoring symptoms of abnormal digestion, a person can find out and address those triggers that cause dysbiosis. These triggers are analyzed in detail in Part 1 of this book series with the title "Crohn's Disease and Colitis: Hidden Triggers and Symptoms". Among common triggers of IBD are: - tap water, most types of bottled and mineral water - poor posture (including slouching and bending forward) - certain types of physical exercise that cause tension in abdominal muscles triggering acute digestive flare-ups - some sleeping positions - non organic foods - other chemical triggers that include essential oils (in chewing gums and toothpastes) and acids. This book is Part 2 from the same series, and it focuses on a detailed treatment guide for people with Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis with the following goals: - normalization of the GI flora and natural elimination of biofilms and inflammation - achievement of a clean tongue (without any thick coating) - an ability to hold up to 1 liter (4.2 cups) of urine in the urinary bladder - elimination of flatulence, burping, ear buzzing, and offensive fecal smell - achievement of no soiling (i.e., no residue is left on the anus after a bowel movement) and regular bowel movements without marks on the toilet bowl. During recovery, it is common that a person with IBD experiences gradual improvements in relation to all symptoms at the same time. Vice versa, when making a mistake leading to GI exacerbation, all these symptoms worsen together (more flatulence, burping, and gas; stronger smell; more ear buzzing; reduced urinary volume and increased urination; more soiling; etc.). Achievement of these goals requires numerous lifestyle changes that relate to diet, chewing, posture, physical exercise, sleep, thermoregulation, breathing patterns, and avoidance of all triggers. Addressing these lifestyle factors creates conditions to heal the gut naturally. With this treatment guide and avoidance of triggers, most people with Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis can achieve no soiling (no need for toilet paper) an a few days and clinical remission in 1-2 months.
