Synopsis

This book is written for people who suffer from Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis or who have relatives or friends who are affected by one of these diseases. People with irritable bowel syndrome can also benefit from my experience.
My name is Joachim Braun, I have Crohn's disease since 2004. Until the end of 2016 my course of the disease was chronically active - i.e. instead of relapsing, the affected mucous membrane was moderately to massively inflamed for about 12 years, especially in the last section of the small intestine and in the descending colon and sigmoid. In addition, I was addicted to cortisone for many years.
At the time when I am writing these lines, it is July 2019 and I have been in stable, colonoscopically confirmed remission for about three years, without having suffered a Crohn's flare-up in between. So there is no more inflammation to be seen, just a few scars. In addition, I do not currently need cortisone or other immunosuppressants.
How did I do that?
This is exactly what this book is about: The first chapter describes the nutritional measures I took to stop my chronic active colitis. The second tells you what supplements I take to stabilize my condition. And the third chapter anecdotically shows you which mistakes I made throughout my medical history with Crohn's disease so that you can learn from them without committing them yourself.
Here is an overview of the content:
How I made a long known diet even more effective for me
• 7 things I have changed in my diet
• Which guideline I follow when introducing new foods
My Top 5 Supplements
1. Probably the best prebiotic so far
2. Condensed Immunity
3. Champion of Antioxidants
4. All-round helper for the organs
5. Fire drencher for the mucosa
Deep-dive into my story
• How Crohn's disease manifested itself in me
• Main Mistakes I made in the course of my disease
