How To Cure Crohn’s Disease

by Andrew Gubb on November 27, 2009

So this is an article I’m directing more at people who will find this site through the search engine. Read on anyway if you’re a regular reader or anyone who doesn’t actually have Crohn’s disease, though, as I think there are some useful lessons here for everybody – particularly, anyone who has a serious medical condition in general, or who might one day have one (…anyone).

I started showing symptoms of Crohn’s disease when I was about 9. Ten years have passed since then. Crohn’s disease is a chronic disease which can shorten the life of the guy who has it – mostly by taxing their energy and preventing them from absorbing nutrients from their food, weakening the body for infections to come in. The symptoms are nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, and acute pain in the gut. When it’s bad, it hurts a lot.

Excuse me, by the way, if I talk like an expert in this article. I am not an expert, but then the experts who thought they knew how to look after me didn’t have Crohn’s disease.

Anyway, Crohn’s disease is capable of being mortal for the person who has it. I came very close at one point. I was in hospital, unable to eat anything, and getting infection after infection*. Eventually they had to operate. My parents and doctors had a policy of glossing everything over for the sake of my fragile teenage mind but I could see in my parent’s expressions that I might not make it out of this one.

*I will elaborate as to why later.

Fastforward to nowadays, and I’ve had a year in which things have been pretty OK. Perfect? No. But pretty damn OK. I’ve gotten sick maybe once a month on average, and only for one night – as long as it took to vomit up whatever was in my stomach. Then I spent a day fasting and it was under control.

Luck? A miracle? Fuck you.

I did this myself.

And I’m pissed, because from where I’m standing, it looks like the years in which I spent more time in hospital than in school were the result of the negligence of those who were given the responsibility to take care of me.

No, negligence is too kind a word.

“Fascism” would be closer to the mark.

And I am not exaggerating, because millions upon millions of people have been killed already by the medical industry. They are more insiduous, more effective, and perhaps therefore more evil than the Nazis were.

Do you know they gave me drugs to reduce my immune system function? The doctors and my parents (my parents are biologists) lied to me, telling me that it only reduced the immune system in the gut (as if that were possible). At one point I had infection after infection for months, from colds steadily getting worse until I had pneumonia, until I was at the point where I couldn’t sleep at night for the coughing, and nearly died before I experimented with leaving off the drugs without telling anyone.

Do you know they wanted at one point to remove my stomach and replace it with a plastic bag, which would hang out of my chest forever more with the contents of my lunch on display for any girl who cared to remove my shirt?

Some guardian angel put a stop to that, but I do have a scar on my stomach and a HUGE amount of anger to sort through.

Nevermind that, though. This has been therapeutic but I want this to be an informative article.

How to treat Crohn’s disease

I do believe that people have been cured of Crohn’s disease. I have greatly improved my own case, something which doctors would either call coincidence or impossible – and I know I will end with curing it once and for all. I know this as strongly as I know anything – because I have come to this earth to do a job, and not even Satan himself is gonna stop me.

I can’t give you a cure, then, but I can tell you what worked for me. But more important than the specifics, I can teach you how to find out the truth for yourself. I’ve read the accounts of people who have cured Crohn’s disease, so I “know” how to cure Crohn’s disease – theoretically. I don’t “know” well enough to cure my own, though, and even if I did I wouldn’t be able to teach you… because here’s the secret.

Healing is a path you have to walk alone.

It doesn’t matter what other people say. They are not you. Everyone is different, everyone is special, and in the end the only one who can do what’s necessary to change your life is you.

YOU.

Your doctors can’t heal for you. You do the healing. At best a doctor can help you heal yourself. That’s a subtle difference, but an important one, from the mentality which they have: “Poor helpless patient, don’t worry, we’ll do everything; everything will be so easy; just sit back, and we’ll fix you.”

Do you see how this destroys you, if you meekly accept your role as pathetic, powerless, stupid patient? Besides, doesn’t it stand out how incredibly arrogant this is? “We’ll fix you! Science owns nature! We are in control!” Yeah right, dickhead. When you die and are confronted with the light at the end of the tunnel I’d like to see how in control you feel then.

I spent years accepting my role as the stupid patient, passively taking the cure from godlike medical practitioners. And more than once it came close to killing me. If I’d only accepted that the healing had to be done by ME from the beginning, it would not have taken so long to find the ways I know now to get it under control.

But giving my power away was so easy. It felt so comfortable to think I could just place my life in the hands of another and just… stop thinking.

It sure is comfortable. Maybe, reading this, you still want to sink back under that warm duvet. Maybe you’re angry at me for being the guy who whips the duvet off against your will because the fucking house is burning down. But just as in that situation, you’ll thank me in the end.

1: How to deal with doctors

I’ve already mentioned that the medical system is evil. The medical system is actually controlled by the pharmaceutical industry, which makes money from selling drugs and brainwashes doctors to prescribe them. Don’t take my word for it; do some research. Google a few choice strings such as “pharmaceutical industry scam”, “pharmaceutical industry scandal”, and so on. I’ll leave that to you. Just keep an open mind, that’s all I ask: if you’re critical of everything and take time to read both sides of the argument, the truth will out. You only need to worry if you absolutely refuse to believe that there’s even a possibility that you could be wrong. Do I smell fanatism maybe?

Assuming at this point that you agree that the medical system is evil, I now want to explain that there are two types of doctors. Evil ones, who only care about money. They knew that being a doctor is a great way of making a very good living, so they took the degree. That’s all there is to it. They might be conscious that there are better ways of healing people, or they may have cared too little to even do the research. Doesn’t matter though, they don’t give a shit about you.

The other sort are actually to me more painful to behold. These are people with a heart of gold, who studied to become a doctor because they wanted to help. They REALLY want to help! The last doctor I had was like this. It hurt me to see she had wasted her life – worse than wasted her life. Though she had good intentions, she had let herself become an instrument of evil. I tried to tell her, I thought she might understand, but I guess she had invested too much to have the courage to re-examine what she was doing.

It’s like Akemi said: “You can’t be effectively evil if what you do is obviously dark and malevolent.” Evil pretends to be Good: that’s one of its most basic defining qualities. How would the world look if you could see through every false appearence? Let me tell you, I know a few psychics and not one of them has a very good opinion of the world in general.

Anyway, I was getting at this: doctors, whether they are nice doctors or nasty doctors, are not good. They are the pawns of a larger game, one way or another, and they do what Evil people designed them to do. Laws, rules, and six years of doing everything to please an external agency who would have the last word on who was given the right to heal people and who wasn’t… a doctor has NO FREEDOM in how he does his work. A pawn, as I said.

Can they help you at all? Well, I admit that I am radical. Sometimes being radical isn’t so good. On the other hand, if someone offered you a cyanide pill I think it’d be healthy to be radical instead of saying, “Well, once in a while it couldn’t hurt…”. In all my experience in looking after myself, I really am not sure if a disease like this can be helped in any way by doctors. OK, if you have a case that is really far gone, then surgery can help – but that is a really radical solution. A surgery can kill you, and even if it doesn’t, your body will bear massive system shock – guaranteed. (The days after the times I had surgery were the most painful in my life, and coming from me, that means something).

The other way I could recommend use of a doctor to you would be if they offered you infliximab. This stuff really did help me quite impressively. However, when I did some research on it, the possible side effects, as for most drugs, were disconcerting:

…upper respiratory tract infections, urinary tract infections, cough, rash, back pain, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, headache, weakness and fever.

In the end, I had learnt to tread carefully with doctors. Everything for them is a battle, man against nature, and if you get caught in the crossfire then you were just a necessary loss.

In summary, doctors can be good for:

Infliximab as a last ditch effort

Surgery as a really last ditch effort.

However, these are hardly solutions. The real solution is to never need them. We’ll go over how later.

DO NOT let your doctor give you:

Immunosuppressants

Steriods

Antibiotics

Modulen or any other liquid food diet

And especially not anything you don’t understand!

DEMAND that your doctor explain their actions to you and REFUSE to do anything where you don’t clearly understand why, the potential upside, and the risks. Your doctor is unlikely to understand that they are in the control of dark interests, so it is up to you to go to the internet or a university library and research what they intend to give you with a lot of caution. If you end up refusing pretty much everything they want to give you, then I’d say you’re doing well.

Beware of manipulation techniques:

Belittling (Doctors love to make you feel small, stupid and helpless. When you feel helpless you have nothing to do but give your power up to an external agent. Remember, there is nothing the doctor can understand that you can’t.)

Fear (Talking about everything as if it were the end of the world. Fear might come naturally to a doctor, but it won’t help you heal. You need to take it easy and to some extent, put it in God’s hands)

Dehumanisation (“Put the patient face down on the table and insert an anal probe. If the patient refuses to comply, explain to the patient that this procedure is necessary for their continued survival and that a bit of humiliation is a sign that the treatment is going as planned”).

Remember:

THERE IS NOTHING A DOCTOR CAN UNDERSTAND WHICH YOU CAN’T.

DO NOT BELIEVE A DOCTOR WHEN THEY SUGGEST YOU ARE HELPLESS TO LOOK AFTER YOURSELF!

Hellow Andrew,

As you may remember me, I am a subscriber of yours, and I have recently been useing Fennel Seeds, and cinnamon.

I did start to read your diet which has helped you , but somehow have lost it, I had come across where you were useing Fennel too, so please could you send me your diet.

I have had Crohns now fo 48 years.

Cheers,

Carmen

The other article I wrote on Crohn’s Disease is here: http://www.andrewgubb.com/crohns-disease/ and it’s the one that mentions the diet.

Fennel is really good – not sure about cinnamon, but if it works for you? I also eat avocadoes when I need to settle my stomach, they are excellent, very anti-inflammatory. You can buy fennel “bulbs” – a fleshy vegetable – and it has a similar effect. You can make a juice out of it with a juice machine to get lots of the nutrients in without having to spend ages chewing.

The 80/10/10 diet is the one I mentioned. It’s the cleanest diet out there – though I think some on crohn’s may need a transition diet. First I’d go vegan, then remove gluten and coffee (important things for anyone, but for crohn’s especially so). Some fasting, too, will help purify your body. In the meantime get in plenty of salads (focusing on non-abrasive greens such as lettuce, especially the iceberg variety) and eat as much healthy fruit as you can. Don’t push yourself if you find it hard to manage – let your body set the pace. Have plenty of avocadoes, they’re raw and won’t cause any problems for crohn’s.

So yeah, I hope this helps. :)
