More to Consider in the Battle Against Ulcerative Colitis (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780982827659)

A significant proportion of patients do not tolerate existing treatments because of their adverse effects and about 20% to 30% of patients fail to respond to the drugs given for induction of remission. Consequently, new alternatives for the treatment of UC constantly are being sought. Sood, et al., 2009

Ulcerative colitis is an inflammatory disease involving the rectum and the colon-causing pain, bleeding, diarrhea, and tissue damage. More than 750,000 North Americans have this disease (or it has them). It can be devastating. It can be deadly. Remission in ulcerative colitis is often difficult to achieve and maintain. We use powerful drugs to treat this disease, drugs that can cause serious side effects and may not stop its progression. But help is on the way.

More to Consider in the Battle against Ulcerative Colitis explains, in layman's terms, what this disease is all about and offers suggestions on how to treat it more effectively than by drug therapy and little else. Here you will learn from the experiences of others who achieved remission in their struggle with this disease by the use of alternative and complementary measures. This book only exists because of the careful observations I have made, unique experiences that have come my way, and a lot of hard work and dedication. Eugene L. Heyden, RN
