Effectively treatment for Colitis

Colitis (also called ulcerative colitis) is an acute or chronic inflammation of the membrane lining the colon—your large intestine or bowel. Colitis causes inflammation and sores, called ulcers, in the top layers of the lining of the large intestine. Ulcerative colitis rarely affects the small intestine except for the lower section, called the ileum.

The inflammation makes the colon empty frequently, causing diarrhea. Ulcers form in places where the inflammation has killed colon lining cells. The ulcers bleed and produce pus and mucus. You may have abdominal pain, diarrhea, rectal bleeding, painful spasms (tenesmus), lack of appetite, fever, and fatigue.

For home remedies use this simple alternative treatment:
  • Take the normal dosage of two teaspoons cider vinegar and honey with water
  • An enema of teaspoonful or more of molasses is also very helpful
The cider vinegar and honey treatment has been used effectively in treatment for this colitis.
