    Crohn or not?

    Was the blood red like the same colour it would be if you cut your finger? If so it's likely to be a fissure, this can happen for all sorts of reasons but bad diet is a common cause, constipation/spicy food/ alcohol etc. They heal relatively easy if you stick to a good diet and ease the stress...

    I am now in remission

    Here's a blog post highlighting the issues with the study you posted and why you should take it with a pinch of salt. Whilst it would appear there are a number of factors in the study that need ironing out before any conclusion can be made the biggest one is the one I mentioned earlier. We know...

    Anxiety Attacks

    One of the stranger chrons symptoms I used to suffer from was anxiety attacks. Real intense panic attacks that would result in me shaking uncontrollably, my legs becoming weak, my heart racing, my lungs feeling like they were contracting making it difficult to breathe etc. I was just wondering...

    I am now in remission

    Yes I've seen many studies citing red meat as a culprit in cancer, heart attacks etc. but diving deeper into the data it would appear that none of them are conclusive. The most common problem is the studies tend to show people eating a western diet without red meat then a western diet with red...

    I am now in remission

    I would agree if it was something chemically medicinal. However as it's merely a dietary change I thought the risk/reward was well worth it. That's not to say there won't be randomized studies in the future I would imagine, it's just early doors right now. However they are honest about patients...

    I am now in remission

    I haven't looked through everything she or the other paleomedicina staff have published, there's tonnes of it out there. I just looked at the stuff related to chrons which were multiple case studies. The stuff she's done recently has been mainly focused on cancer. Using the same diet as a...

    I am now in remission

    Hi, yes that is a great way of putting it. Current biologics are a placeholder, because they don't really fix the problem, they just stall it sometimes. The medical literature on PKD is growing, the exciting thing about this is it's not just helping chrons but a wide range of chronic...

    I am now in remission

    Yes my blood inflammation was slightly raised but PaleoMedicina aren't looking for just that, I don't understand the science behind it but my blood list is a mile long and they check everything, apparently they somehow deducted from it that my absorption was really low and this has improved...

    I am now in remission

    Thankyou for your well thought out and reasoned response Regarding being confrontational, I apologise if anyone was offended by my demeanour, I certainly didn't intend to be rude or insulting but I do think it's best to confront challenges from people head on, particularly when the challenges...

    I am now in remission

    Just to be clear. The Paleolithic-Ketogenic Diet I am advocating for is not the same as the Lion Diet. Whilst they start off similarly they diverge over time with the PKD introducing other foods including fruits and vegetables. Having said that, this article you have posted is full of...

    I am now in remission

    A few people have direct messaged me regarding this asking how easy it was to do. Yes I found it easy to do and no I didn't cheat even once. The reason why is because I was so determined not to go on immunosuppressants and that was the alternative. However it's also easy to stick to because...

    I am now in remission

    Yes, Mikhaila stumbled upon the diet by trial and error and only later found out how much evidence there was to back up her theory. Paleomedicina actually got in touch with her at one point because she was struggling with folic acid (she put all of this on her twitter) and she decided to start...

    I am now in remission

    I could be wrong but so far the science is on my side considering I am in remission and there hasn't been a patient who has tried this we know of that it hasn't worked for. Please don't say you won't change my mind, that is an incredibly poor way to approach any new treatment for disease no...

    I am now in remission

    You have to change the amount of water you drink dependent on what stage in the diet you are at. It's lots of water at first until your uric acid levels stabilize and then later as you get better it's less and less to increase the levels of acidity. More acidity = faster healing apparently. I...

    Paleolithic-Ketogenic diet. It's what I used to put myself in complete remission.

    I am now in remission

    This is not a fad diet. It's a clinically tested and proven diet for the treatment of auto-immune conditions and certain cancers, all of which can be read on the paleo medicina website or you can view any number of the talks Dr Zsofia Clemens has given at conferences regarding this via youtube...

    Good luck, if it isn't working aswell as you'd like I recommend going PKD and then building back up from that

    I am now in remission

    The chance of experiencing unwanted side effects of immunosuppressants is nearly 100% according to NHS UK literature, this is why the treatment must be tailored over time usually taking between 4 months and 2 years to do so. Even when this has happened the chance of experiencing unwanted side...
