Hello Paola, first of all I would recommend to take Boswellia serrata which is a powerful anti-inflammatory, hang up the habit of drinking aloe gel in the morning on an empty stomach that burns and is soothing and to avoid whole foods in the acute phase of colitis, better semi-whole foods , excellent almond milk to relieve spasms and oat flakes. A herbal tea made from fennel seeds and aniseed helps to deflate the intestine. Good day

spastic colitis diagnosed by gastroenterologist? then it is always advisable in the first instance to reduce the unpleasant effects of colitis until their cessation with specific remedies and / or drugs, however if this colitis (as often happens) is connected to stressful events or a personality sensitive to stress then it is always preferable to have a psychotherapeutic evaluation and an intervention aimed at completely and forever eliminating the causes of colitis by associating the intake of remedies with a targeted psychotherapy course

Hi Paolo, in the meantime, to start I would advise you to take probiotics that help restore the intestinal bacterial flora and strengthen the immune system.In addition, I recommend the consumption of cooked vegetables and fresh fruit, brown rice is excellent, dried fruit, artichokes, cabbage , chicory, carrots, beets, barley, fennel, such as fruit: apples and pears are excellent; avoid fried foods, cold cuts, fatty and heavy foods, sugar and coffee. Obviously I recommend you to steam cook. I also recommend the use of Aloe vera drinking gel. Sleep at least 8 hours a night.

As a nutritionist who treats digestive diseases, I recommend that you reduce foods rich in fiber such as leafy vegetables and containing seeds such as tomatoes, peppers, aubergines. Eliminate any source of wholemeal which further risks inflaming the intestinal mucosa. Take a trial period by eliminating even leavened products such as pizza, wraps and focaccias and any source of dairy products and cheeses. After a few days it will check the changes. Regards.
