Of course giving advice is tricky, but some things are just common sense. When you're dealing with colon issues, what you eat and how you eat it is everything. It’s only the people who skim the surface—those who rationalize everything because they can't live without their "comfort food"—who claim diet doesn't matter for colon health.
I know exactly what I'm talking about because I've been there. Honestly, I never could have imagined how brutal it is to walk away from certain foods and the habits tied to them. These are things people do for decades; they become part of your DNA. When the day comes where you have to quit something you've eaten your entire life, it becomes a massive uphill battle. Very few people actually win that fight.
I know, we're surrounded by vegetarians, vegans, and macrobiotic enthusiasts at every turn. But I'm almost certain very few actually live out what they claim to believe. It's just human nature, isn't it?
I truly hope your sister finds the strength and wisdom to win this fight. And she *can* win it. I recommend strict macrobiotics. Just remember, you don't fix everything in a few days. The illness won't vanish overnight. But in a few days, she will definitely feel some relief. That's what will give her the fuel to keep going. Don't listen to all the noise from people around you. Everyone thinks they're an expert these days. We are too diverse for one-size-fits-all solutions, so your sister needs to develop her own strategy and find her path to victory. She needs to listen to her gut, trust her instincts, and think logically with a healthy dose of optimism. Like someone who isn't afraid—someone certain of the win.
Avoid spices, fats, and...
Cut out all animal products entirely! Why? Because that's what animals are bred to eat.
For example:
Humans don't need cow's milk; that stuff is designed for calves. When a calf is born, it needs that milk to survive, to build bone density and muscle so it can graze with its mother in a few days. Once it's strong enough, the calf doesn't need that milk anymore. The mother instinctively pushes it away. That's just how nature works. THE LOGIC IS RIGHT THERE IN THAT EXAMPLE.
It's only humans who thought they could rise above natural laws. Only humans think they're "smarter" than nature. You see that human "intelligence" everywhere.
Have her try eating nothing but grains for one week. Mostly brown rice and maybe some seaweed. Soak kombu in cold water. Grind the rice using an old-school manual coffee grinder. Mix it and cook it for 20 minutes in the water used to soak the seaweed. She’ll have to ignore the taste for a while. Adjust the consistency so it passes through the digestive tract without pain. Tell her to stay away from honey. Grains provide everything a human needs. She should try to stick to grains for as long as possible.
SHE WON'T DROP DEAD IF SHE HAS A LITTLE MEAT OR COFFEE, BUT SHE SHOULDN'T DO IT. HER BODY WILL THANK HER, AND THE ULTIMATE REWARD WILL BE RECOVERY.
Recovery! Why even doubt it? Do winners really sit around doubting their own victory? She just needs to be persistent and consistent at the start. Seeing progress will give her the courage to push forward. Don't let others brainwash you with endless unsolicited advice. She absolutely needs to get some books on macrobiotics and use logic, just like most "other inhabitants of nature" (and no, I'm not talking about humans).
OF COURSE, DON'T OVERTHINK THE ILLNESS (easy to say, right?). It'll be much easier to stay upbeat when she starts seeing real progress. A lot of what's written in macrobiotic literature was written by people who wouldn't know your sister's symptoms if they hit them in the face. So, for starters, let her rely mainly on grains. That worked for me. And tell her not to forget to listen to her "inner voice." That way, she won't go wrong. She shouldn't stop taking her medications abruptly, but let that be a long-term goal. The fewer medications (especially corticosteroids), the better.
I'm rooting for her.
