Ulcerative Colitis 

 Ulcerative colitis is a chronic health problem where the mucous membranes lining the colon become inflamed and develop ulcers, causing bloody diarrhea, pain, gas, bloating, and hard stools. The colon muscles have to work harder to move these hardened stools through the colon. This can cause the mucous lining of the colon wall to bulge out into small pouch like projections called diverticula. This normally occurs in the lower left section of the large intestine that is called the sigmoid and is “S-shaped” part of the colon; however, it may occur in any part of the colon. Enteritis and Ileitis are types of inflammation of the small intestine often associated with colitis. Ulcerative colitis can range from mild to severe. Common complications are diarrhea and bleeding. A rarer complication is toxic megacolon, in which the intestinal wall weakens and balloons out, threatening to rupture. The cause or causes of most cases of colitis are unknown, but risk factors include: poor eating habits, stress, and food allergies.

You would not think of exposing yourself to an Atomic Bomb fallout or excessive X-rays. But not getting enough vitamins and minerals is just as dangerous. Cells in your body not getting their vitamins and minerals suffer both DNA and mitochondrial damage. These cells under a microscope look like they have been hit with radiation. This type of damage may cause you to age faster and can lead to Cancer and other degenerative diseases like Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and others.
 

 
"It's virtually impossible to get sufficient quantities of some 
key nutrients from food alone - even with the most healthful diets."
