If you or a loved one is diagnosed with colitis you know the misery it can be. Not only is colitis painful it’s inconvenient and can cause the sufferer great distress. My mother was diagnosed with colitis. She was house bound for months because of fits of explosive diarrhea with no warning. She went on line and searched for colitis diets. She found a wealth of information. She has been able since following a colitis diet, to control some of her symptoms. A high fiber diet has made a world of difference to her. She is able to get out and about now without worry.
