I'm surprised at that. I thought it was helpful for IBD too.
The strangest-sounding treatment I heard of a few months go, although it isn't new at all, is fecal transplant. Very interesting in how it can relieve symptoms of UC quickly by introducing needed bacteria into the gut. I was fascinated hearing about it on a radio program. I listened very closely after saying to myself, "Is she saying what I think she's saying?!"
