what exact etiology of the disease?
Best answer:
There are many causes of ulcerative colitis just like there are many reasons why someone can be crying. The bleeding and diarrhea are simply symptoms of your immune system losing its ability to tune the good and bad bacteria in the gut and even in remote places as the sinus cavity behind your nose. Researchers are even investigating the bacteria in the mouth as potential triggers for colitis.
Some researchers try to suppress the inflammation by blocking various molecules that control the immune system. This can be dangerous if the cause in a particular person is a bad bacteria. This approach is like taking the cops off the street in a bad neighborhood. For a while it will be quiet as there will be no fights between the cops and bad guys but eventually the bad guys will really start to hurt a lot of people. Oversuppressing the immune system can lead to a lot of side effects such as secondary infections. As a result, researchers are trying to block inflammation in a more targeted manner. However, due to the complexity of the body, immune targeting will be risky.
The best treatment for most patients is a fecal transplant. As disgusting as it sounds, check out the link below. The science behind it is quite deep. One general situation where colitis occurs when the populations of good and bad bacteria get out of control when the good bacteria start to die off prior to a flare. This is like when the police or the parents stop supervising the inexperienced folks. Transplanting pre-screened healthy flora back into a colitis patient is like putting the cops and parents back into the system to reteach and discipline the bad guys. Borody is the doctor in Australia who has performed nearly a thousand transplants successfully. Check into it below.
There are many things you can to to ease colitis. Review the following list of KEYWORDs and go to http://www.pubmed.gov and type in: "ulcerative colitis" KEYWORD
to see the results of the peer reviewed journals. Here is the list...
lactobacillus and bifidobacteria: Kyodophilus by Wakanuga
lactoabacillus GG: Lactobacillus GG by Culturelle
sacchromyces boulardii: a gut friendly yeast by Jarrow
Pepto Bismol
Fish oil
bromelain
papain
quercetin
boswellia
vitamin C
vitamin E
magnesium in citrate or ionic form: traceminerals.com
pig intestine worms
The best but unpleasant treatment is a human fecal transplant. In pubmed type in: fecal Borody TJ
and you will see the articles. Download and review and you will learn that some people can be cured of ulcerative colitis. According to Borody, about 1/6 colitis patients get cured. You could be one of the lucky ones. I know folks who are doing well with this treatment.
Secondary possibilities
capric acid (not much research here but shown to be good against a Candida infection)
caprylic acid (not much research here but shown to be good against a Candida infection) modulation can be a risky approach.
