When I finally decided to start trying to heal from Ulcerative Colitis through nutrition, the first thing I tried was drinking 32 oz of cabbage juice for 30 days. I was in a two month flare when I started juicing the cabbage, and by day 3 the flare ended and I had my first soft formed stool in months, albeit still bloody. A few years later I stumbled across Dr. Garnett Cheney's research on the incredible ulcer healing properties that cabbage juice has, and my experience started to make sense. Since then, I have gone on to completely heal from UC, but my interest in the ulcer healing compounds of cabbage juice is just beginning to peak.
