A health project

On Wednesday, October 12th, the Crohn’s & Colitis Caucus held the first ever Congressional IBD Briefing. The Caucus Co-Chairs, Representatives Crenshaw and Jackson Jr., hosted the event in collaboration with CCFA. 13-year old Megan Cohen, a local patient, shares her moving story of diagnosis.

In this video, I documented 5 days of meals from the morning until going to sleep. My goal was to stop the colitis flare up and symptoms from getting worse and turning things around. And of course, I am trying to continue medication free like I have been most of 2011. As the week went on, I started to see some improvements in my bowel movements and also a reduction in bleeding. By Saturday after the video, I had a great day (you can decide what that means.) I follow the SCD diet very closely, but if you watch carefully, you will see a minor deviation from the diet in terms of the bacon I eat which contains some sugar which is SCD illegal. more information can be found at www.ihaveuc.com and colitis diet information www.ihaveuc.com have a great day, and I always love hearing from you! -Adam… and yes, I too have UC.
