There are 2 million cases of Crohn’s disease diagnosed in North America and 95,000 in the United Kingdom. It is thought to be related to an auto-immune response by some scientists while others think it is a low stomach acid response but the causes and cures remain unknown. The joints and eyes can also be affected by this disease in addition to the alimentary canal.

A flare up of symptoms can occur after months of an individual having been symptom free. It is essential to understand your flare up triggers in order to avoid them and these triggers can vary between individuals. To circumvent taking medications or because medications are unaffordable, many Crohn’s disease sufferers use natural remedies. Natural remedies help the natural healing processes of the body and may reduce chances of relapses.

For natural treatments to be successful, it is crucial that suitable diets should be followed. Avoidance of products containing gluten and lactose will bring relief to many individuals with Crohn’s disease. The risk of developing Crohn’s disease is lessened and the chances of attaining remission are improved by having a proper intake of Omega-6 fatty acids (sesame seed, corn oil) and Omega-3 fatty acids (Flaxseed oil, fatty fish such as trout and salmon).

A well balanced oil which contains Omega-3, 6, and 9, is Hemp oil – its anti-inflammatory properties impact positively on inflammatory processes if taken daily (initially one teaspoon, steadily increasing to one tablespoon). Candida is another Crohn’s disease related problem – a fungal overgrowth caused by destruction of the good bacteria in the digestive tract through use of steroids and antibiotics. Usually occurring as harmless yeast in the bowel, an overgrowth of Candida can spread in the blood and cause low energy levels in those with compromised immune systems.

The natural remedies, Wormwood and Zell Oxygen, are helpful for those with Crohn’s disease and candida infections. If an individual is in remission, a diet, high in natural fiber should be taken and for those experiencing symptoms, a low residue, low fat diet is recommended. Proper nutrients promote self healing in the body and are important in helping the intestines recover from inflammatory responses.

Intestines with less or no inflammatory responses are better able to absorb and process nutrients, the risk of obstructions, fistulas and ulcers is lowered and cramping, pain or diarrhea is controlled. A nutritious and well-balanced diet is extremely important to stick to. If you are a sufferer from Crohn’s disease or other inflammatory bowel diseases and want to stay healthy you should avoid processed and high fat foods, caffeine and milk.
