Specialists say that when patients first come to them, they often say they have consulted many doctors, followed the rules, and taken the prescribed medicine, but have seen no improvement. They ask what they should do next. Then, the doctor asks what kind of oil they consume daily. Patients often say they use soybean oil, and others mention sunflower oil, believing that sunflower oil is better for their gut health. These patients do not eat much rice, avoid oil, and eat boiled food but still see no improvement.

They do not pay much attention to sleep, anxiety, or depression. We must understand that gut health is related to these factors. In such cases, patients cannot eat properly, and if they cannot eat properly, how can they lead a better life? Some common symptoms of these diseases include poor digestion and pain after meals. Some people believe these conditions are incurable, but the truth is that eating healthy foods and leading a healthy life can help manage these diseases.

There are two types of gut diseases, with IBS being one of them. IBS, or irritable bowel syndrome, is functional and does not involve physical damage. Today, we will discuss inflammatory bowel disease, which involves inflammation in the bowel and is a serious condition. Inflammatory bowel disease comes in two forms: ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease. Since it involves inflammation, it can lead to issues like indigestion, leaky gut, and damage to the intestines and colon. To diagnose whether it is ulcerative colitis or Crohn’s disease, some tests are necessary. Their symptoms are similar, but in ulcerative colitis, blood flow is more prevalent. A biopsy and a colonoscopy are required to determine which disease the patient has. Without these tests, it is impossible to diagnose whether it is ulcerative colitis or Crohn’s disease.

Crohn’s disease does not affect the entire gastrointestinal tract. It occurs in the last part of the small intestine and the first part of the large intestine. Ulcerative colitis, on the other hand, occurs in the rectum. Ulcerative colitis is more dangerous than Crohn’s disease because it can increase the risk of cancer. These two conditions are serious and are classified as gut diseases.

Our immune system will react if a foreign invader enters our blood. Two things should be remembered: one, the immune system will attack, and two, how it attacks. Autoimmune disease means the immune system is out of control. The immune system becomes overactive, attacking whatever it encounters, often too forcefully and aggressively, leading to what we call allergies, which are hyperreactions to specific substances.

If we want to discuss inflammatory bowel disease, we need to understand that something remains in the body, causing the immune system to become angry and attack these remaining elements, mistakenly targeting the colon. The immune system perceives something in the colon and doesn’t know the exact location, so it attacks healthy colon tissue, causing inflammation. In medical science, when autoimmune diseases reach an advanced stage, surgery or medication is needed to stop the inflammation. As the immune system becomes hyperactive, doctors prescribe medication to calm it down. Ozone therapy can help control this problem and regulate the immune system.

By following some tips at home, we can reduce these problems and restore our immune system to its original state. We know the cause of immune system damage is foreign invaders in the blood, such as undigested food or a leaky gut. We should remove these quickly. To do so, follow these rules:

1. Do not eat foods that cause inflammation; consume fiber and healthy fats. This will help close the leaky gut and restore the intestinal lining.
2. Improve digestion. On our website, we share many tips on how to improve digestion.
3. Balance the microbiome by eating probiotics and prebiotics to increase good gut bacteria.
4. Manage stress and engage in daily physical activities.

By following these steps, our gut microbiome will balance, and our gut health will improve. If our gut health is good, toxins, viruses, or harmful bacteria will be eliminated, and the immune system will become stronger.

Patients with ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease who want to treat it at home need to cleanse their colon first. Coffee enemas are the best way to cleanse the colon. Read our article on Benefits of coffee enema for cleaning the colon. Bacteria, toxins, and viruses can remain in the colon for many years, and if we don’t clean it, gut inflammation cannot be resolved. So, colon cleansing is the first step in preventing these inflammatory diseases. Ozone therapy can cure these conditions. By using ozone, it destroys all bad bacteria and viruses in the body, and the amazing thing is that ozone does not destroy any good bacteria, which are beneficial for our gut and colon. This therapy works selectively, targeting only harmful elements in the gut. During colon cleansing, good bacteria will grow naturally, so probiotics are not necessary.

One important point is that some gut experts say that taking probiotics rectally is more beneficial for improving gut health. When we ingest probiotic capsules, they pass through the stomach, where the stomach acid can destroy the good bacteria. On the other hand, if we take probiotics rectally, there is no acidic environment in our colon, so all the good bacteria can reach the gut and colon, making it very effective. However, do not attempt this at home without first consulting a doctor who can guide you on how to do it properly.

IBD patients often suffer from other conditions like anemia, asthma, and weakness because their bodies cannot absorb the nutrients they eat. They lose weight over time, lack energy, and develop other health issues. Therefore, it is crucial to stop this disease immediately, which is easier than it might seem. Ozone therapy can be very effective. By following some home remedies and tips, you can stop the disease and improve the symptoms without taking medication. Some helpful tips include:

• Eating healthy food
• Performing coffee enemas
• Avoiding alcohol and caffeine
• Consuming fiber-rich foods
• Managing stress through exercises like yoga and breathing exercises

Some IBD patients come to the hospital complaining of severe pain, weakness, thin bodies, and lack of energy. Some even have suicidal thoughts due to poor mental health and severe depression. When gut health is compromised, mental health is also affected. Patients like these should follow some tips, such as:

Coconut Oil:

They can consume coconut oil because it is beneficial for all gastrointestinal problems. It can heal ulcers and sores in the gastrointestinal tract and is also beneficial for conditions like gastritis, IBS, and IBD. It should be consumed in high doses—5 to 7 spoons a day. However, do not start with this amount; begin with 2 to 3 spoons, and gradually increase. Taking 5 to 7 spoons at once may cause vomiting and other problems. This coconut oil will eliminate harmful bacteria and viruses from the gut, strengthen the intestinal lining, and help patients regain energy.

Protein and Nutrition:

They need to consume adequate protein and nutrition to improve absorption and regain energy. Some patients cannot eat vegetables, so they can blend vegetables with coconut oil and consume them. Eating vegetables will improve absorption and aid digestion.

Bone Broth:

Bone broth is a good source of calcium and helps increase absorption. There are no side effects, and it is also helpful for cancer patients. After consuming it, patients often feel more energized.

Crohn’s disease is very dangerous. In this condition, the colon can burst, and without immediate surgery, the patient can die. Ulcerative colitis is the final stage before cancer. If not treated properly, it can lead to cancer. On our website, there is another article titled “Inflammatory Bowel Disease [IBD],” where you can learn more about the symptoms and other aspects of IBD. If you are in a serious condition, consult a doctor and consider ozone therapy. If you are in the early stages, you can follow some of the rules we share in this article. By following these guidelines, you can stop the progression of the disease or see some improvement, but ozone therapy is the only definitive cure. Simple lifestyle modifications and eating healthy foods can cure this condition without any medication.
