Colitis (or irritable bowel syndrome) is inflammation of the lining of the colon, which is located in the end zone of the large intestine that connects to the rectum. It seems to be an increasingly common disease, whose symptoms can include diarrhea, abdominal pain and swelling, nausea, fever, fatigue, loss of appetite and weight, etc.

Colitis may originate because of tension, anxiety and prolonged and constant states of stress.

  • 8 slices of day-old bread
  • 4 cloves of garlic
  • 1 and 1 / 2 l of water
  • 1 green pepper
  • A couple of sprigs of mint
  • Sea salt

Preparation

  1. Peel, seed and chop tomatoes. Also peel the garlic and onion, chopping all very fine. Remove seeds from green pepper and chop well. Put oil in a clay pot to the fire and a sauce made with garlic, onions, peppers and tomatoes.
  2. Gently fry everything and add the water. Boil for 15 minutes. Now add the bread and the mint, leaving to a boil. Finally add salt to taste and serve.

Olive soup

Ingredients

  • 1 can of tuna (in olive oil, because you can use the oil as well)
  • 1 can of red pepper (we also use the liquid)
  • 1 can of peas
  • pitted olives (1 bag)
  • pre-soaked brown rice (a handful per person)
  • water
  • 1 vegetable bouillon cube

Preparation

  1. In a pan, incorporate the contents of the can of tuna (oil too), red pepper, cut up into strips (the liquid too), peas, add olives into rings.
  2. We'll let the ingredients are browned a little, then add water and when it starts to boil, add the stock cube, and a handful of rice per person. When we see that the water returns to boil, add or drop of vinegar.
  3. I believe that the grace of this soup is in the vinegar, and the contrast of the other flavors.

    I have read many things and you say that all the organic and raw food is good for all the problems of life, maybe it’s true, but sounds too simple…

    Sometimes I wonder if I have irritable bowel syndrome. I frequently experience odd gastrointestinal side effects after eating foods that aren’t considered “healthy”, but that regardless, most other peopel can still tolerate. I throw up after eating hamburgers, and a lot of foods give me gas. I’ll have to try these recipes out.
