Have had U.C. for 4 years and don't use drugs, only naturopathic/homeopathic items and carefully watch the diet. No roughage, no seeds. Currently have no problems
if I don't violate the strict diet. No dairy, no gluten, no seedy fruits, no broccoli, beets
or similar, no meats. Works for me. Lots of brown rice and rice milk(sparingly).
