Nathan’s Story

I was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis back in 2009 after months of constant flare ups and abdominal pain. I was placed on medication Aminosalicylates and Thiopurines to help control my condition. After years of working with my gastroenterologist we came up with a roadmap to how I could live my life without being reliant on medication, remain symptom free and give myself the best chance to remain in remission for the rest of my life.

I made some lifestyle choices such as meditating and exercising regularly to help reduce stress and modified my diet by introducing foods to help assist my condition and avoided foods that may cause my bowls to flare up. I have been medication free since 2020 and have been in remission still till today.
