I know of someone who has Colitis and will not try this. If I had Colitis, I would definitely give it a try.

Ted from Bangkok, Thailand replies: "Daniel: An ulcerative colitis is caused by a certain bacteria that is needed to kill them, a baking soda alone and alkalinity would not work as well, without the added magnesium citrate and perhaps some zinc supplements. One simple remedy, which had to do with ulcerative colitis was about a 1/2 teaspoon in one full glass of water using milk of magnesia plus 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda in a full glass of water, would have reduced the pain along its path by killing off, at least initially, but since magnesium hydroxide is poorly absorbed, a magnesium citrate 250 mg/day is still needed along with some zinc acetate supplements.Technorati Tags: ulcerative colitis, crohn's disease, baking soda, magnesium citrate
As to why baking soda causes acid urine, it is a result of the hyperosmolarity of sodium portion of the baking soda causes the acidity inside the cell to rid of easier. Apparently the improvement condition came as a result of intracellular fluids being acid to leave the body in larger amounts causing the extracellular fluids to be acid, resulting in a more acid urine. This little known fact is mentioned in medical enclyclopedia at the time I was reading up on alkalinity. To prevent this kind strange occurance, it means the body needs more alkaline electrolytes using both potassium citrate and magnesium citrate along with the baking soda. Since obtaining potassium citrate are relatively difficult I think it is more easy to find the magnesium citrate, which may be found in the ingredients of some common laxative medicine. However, the dose taken is much smaller than as per instructions on the bottle, about at least anywhere from 1/4 to 1/10 less than whatever is mentioned. But technically a 250 mg of magnesium citrate is about 1/8 teaspoon of magnesium citrate, roughly speaking and that is mixed in 1 full glass of water.
So the simplest possible remedy is 250 mg of magnesium citrate plus 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda with 1 full glass of water.
This is irresponsible to post. Crohn's disease is idiopathic, meaning no known cause, so the first statement by "Ted" makes everything to follow based on fiction. If the cure was this simple, there would not be hundreds of thousands of individuals in incapacitating pain due to this disease. You should take down this post.
ReplyDeleteThere are many simple cures to many simple things that people don't believe because the media and the major drug corporations don't want you to know. If simple cures replaced drug therapies, those corporations would no longer make money, would they? Some drug corporations are the biggest and most powerful companies in the USA.
ReplyDeleteThat said, this blog post is just a suggestion and the therapies it includes are all natural so even if it doesn't work, there is no harm in trying.
