I'm 53 and have suffered with Crohn's for about 10 years, tried hundreds of things to overcome it, but still in pain, mostly on my right side below my ribs, but below my left ribs too. I have never had diarrhea like some folks complain of, but sometimes blood in my stools.
I went on a Primal diet last December 15th of 2008, then had a consultation with Aajonus on January 31st of 2009. He said my biggest issues are Crohn's and Lymphatic Congestion.
When I began Primal eating I weighed 170 pounds, but after 3 months it increased to 185, then by August to 192. I'm 6 foot 3 inches, so this is a good sign. But my Crohn's pain is still 100%, with no sign of improvement.
I just did a bit of a fast, so I'm starting over now and thinking about leaving out the milk, butter, cream, cheese and honey. I was eating some fruit before, but I'm also going to cut out all sugar. So no dairy, honey or fruit. I was thinking of basing my new approach to healing on meat, fish and eggs, with some green juice, with no nightshades
If anyone out there has healed Crohn's, or can suggest any helpful ideas for dealing with inflamed intestines, I am interested.
