Since symptoms are currently controlled and bowel movements are normal, focus should now be on healing the gut and preventing flare-ups. Do not stop steroids or Mesacol suddenly without your doctor’s advice. Avoid spicy, fried, sour, packaged foods, alcohol, and excess tea/coffee. Prefer soft, freshly cooked, easy-to-digest meals. Kutajghan vati – 2 tablets twice daily after food Bilwadi churna – 1 teaspoon twice daily with warm water Shatavari churna – 1 teaspoon with milk at bedtime Buttermilk with a small pinch of roasted jeera can also help digestion if tolerated.
