How paracetamol might cause a flare of ulcerative colitis

I found this:

I have many studies that show that free radical activity is causing
major damage in the intestines of people with ulcerative colitis..
That's why DMSO works so well for many people (it's a potent radical
scavenger)..

Read the free radical theory here:

I don't think the tiny amount of starch in the paracetamol caused the
flare..
I think it's more probable that the anti-''free radical scavenging''
property of the paracetamol caused this.

Try lipoic acid, msm, dmso, vitamin C, bioflavanoids..
Also be sure to read

Let me know what you think of it.

I think that breaking the cycle again can be done by the scdiet, but it
will take much longer if you don't supplement the right antioxidants to
help reduce the free radical damage.

Good luck,

Let us know how you fare..

** Then I remember that you can't buy any antioxidants in Germany
without prescription **
Consider a trip to The Netherlands where you can buy these in every
health shop..
