MICROSCOPIC COLITIS SUPPORT

Thank you, Fredi. I do chew sugar free gum but I checked and it doesn't contain Xylitol. I'll buy some & try the humidifier. I drink a lot of water & do keep some by my bedside.

Thank you, Tex. I appreciate everyone's efforts!

Thank you, Marta. I will try the oil pulling. I always have coconut oil on hand.

Thanks, Tex. One of the recommendations is to drink a lot of water, which I do and have always done. I'll keep researching for a healthier mouthwash to use at bedtime. My hygienist said using one of the products would also help with the plaque that forms. I go every six months for a cleaning but the...

Hello. I have very dry mouth at bedtime. I asked my hygienist & she recommended Xylimelts (Xylitol). While it worked very well, it really disrupted my sleep & one night I woke up sweating! Biotene is also recommended but I read the ingredients and one is listed as being bad for the endocrine...

Happy New Year, Pam! So nice to hear that you're coming off of a flare and not beginning. I wish you & our interrnet family a wonderful 2025!

Good morning! I hope this finds everyone well. I haven't visited for a while. Life is busy! I'm in remission for around 10 years, thanks to this group. I went for a facial yesterday, which isn't common for me. It was wonderful to lay on a heated table for an hour & be pampered for a bit. But sad...

Paula, it's scary what we're eating without being aware that we're eating it. Our country is so far behind other countries in keeping our food supply safe. I hope you soon find an end to the flare. Take care!

Hi, Sonya. Glad that you're doing well! This forum is the best and I hope that it's a help to others as well. Have a great week!

Thanks, Jen & Tex! I am very grateful for being able to live an active life & I am so glad that I was able to encourage you, Jen.

Hello, friends! I haven't checked in for a while. Retirement life is busy! I recently had my 10 year LC anniversary. While it's not an anniversary that I really want to celebrate, I am doing incredibly well. I attribute my success to this group! I recently had annual bloodwork and other than my chol...

You're very welcome! Sorry for the late reply. Life has been crazy lately.

Hello. Soaking in Epsom salt always helps me.
