Guest guest Posted November 12, 2006 Report Share Posted November 12, 2006 Hi Barbara, Crohn's is a serious disease that needs to be tackled from several angles. Diet, stress management and herbal support all play a role. It is not just a matter of " here, take this pill " , and be done with it. Are you doing the GFCF diet thing? That stands for Casein-free, gluten-free. It is getting easier all the time, with more cookbooks etc. Do some Googling. If your husband is indeed sensitive to gluten, all the herbs in the world wouldn't do him much good unless he also modified his diet. ITA with the Yeast factor. Crohn's leads to leaky gut, and that in turn makes it worse, etc. Indeed, peppermint tea is a great comforter. But if there is a single miracle herb for Crohn's disease it might be Una de Gato, Cat's Claw. http://tinyurl.com/yfhzhc This link will take you to a place where you can download part of Dr James Duke's research into the herb.
