Ulcerative Colitis: Symptoms And Treatments

1. Supplements

People with ulcerative colitis may have a hard time absorbing vital nutrients; therefore, taking a whole food based multivitamin is recommended. Probiotics are “good” bacteria that help restore the health of the gut, especially after a round of antibiotics or other harsh medications. L-glutamine is an amino acid that boosts the immune system and has been shown to reduce bleeding associated with irritable bowel disease. Turmeric, Bromelain, and Boswellia are potent anti-inflammatory agents that may be able to reduce intestinal inflammation.
