Myabe I should add to my last para.I have Crohn's, post on the IBD BB and, while I am lucky, I also make my own luck by not taking drugs to get myself into remission. I do take digestive enzymes, etc. and I rigidly stick to my own elimination diet - all of which has worked for over 4 years now.However, most people on that board are very sick, and very scared. Some go to the toilet up to 10, 15, 20 and many even 30 times a day, others wear bags and can't go to the toilet as they used to, others can't go out so they can stay near to a toilet...many are in great pain, most bleed. IBD is very serious.And you'd be surprised how many people try to sell them quick fixes, not appropriate for IBD sufferers.Yes, many could benefit from more alternative options but they are, as I said, very scared.And who wouldn't be if you bled buckets of bright red blood in the toilet, and had such pain you can't function. So one must be careful to whom one offers the cure to make one better. Because not everyone is the same. In fact, not everyone responds or is the same even on the IBD board. We are all different.Having said that, your mangosteen does sound interesting.OHaving said that, yourO
