Is there a cure for ulcerative colitis?
December 14, 2009If you’ve been following my vlog for awhile you may already know what I believe about this. There are many on the Internet that claim a certain supplement, treatment, or medicine can COMPLETELY cure your ulcerative colitis without surgery. I’ve thought before about exposing such nonsense but I think even acknowledging such dubious claims gives them too much credit.
This video covers the real deal: the difference between cures and remission, and how surgery, while substantially reducing symptoms, is an imperfect cure at best.

Question: Where am I going wrong? Is there really a cure that I am not seeing? Please respond to this post and share your thoughts!

Those sentences deserved to be in the video! Well said.
Excellent video, a very open and honest assessment of the question ‘IBD vs cure’. I think you are spot on. Surgery is not a cure, but a crude way to cut uc in its tracks. Sometimes at considerable cost and with residual symptoms or other (health) problems.
