Natural Cures

Follow the simple instructions described below to keep the bouts of diarrhea caused by colitis under control. Remember that these suggestions will not cure colitis but they will help to alleviate the symptoms.

	Consume plenty of fluids such as plain water, lemonade, light lemon tea, and clear soups
	Avoid foods that are high in fiber, fat, grease and spiciness until diarrhea is controlled. Also avoid most dairy products including milk, cream and cheese but consume yogurt because it contains acidophilus (healthy bacteria) cultures which may aid in reducing colonic inflammation.
	Consume frequent, small meals that may be easily digested. Learn to eat slowly and chew food thoroughly
