IBD is constantly labeled as an autoimmune disease but it is not an autoimmune disease but a chronic inflammation due to the immune system attacking itself.

Dr. Jay Pravda claims to have found the cure for Ulcerative Colitis.
- Individuals with ulcerative colitis do not have anything wrong with their immune systems. There is no evidence of any pre-existing immune abnormality giving rise to this condition.
- The evidence clearly identifies excess hydrogen peroxide produced by the colonic epithelium as the cause of ulcerative colitis.
- Treatment to clear the colon of excess hydrogen peroxide completely heals ulcerative colitis because once the hydrogen peroxide is gone the white blood cells are no longer attracted into the colon to cause ulcerative colitis. As long as hydrogen peroxide remains normal the condition is cured.
- The 50-year research odyssey trying to find an immune abnormality to explain ulcerative colitis is a dead end and will never uncover the cause or cure for this illness. Immune-focused research just begets more research and endless fundraising, while children and adults with ulcerative colitis face a lifetime compromised by chronic illness, hospitalization, expensive non-curative drugs, a high risk of major surgery, and constant worry about their uncertain future.

"If the colonic inflammation causing ulcerative colitis (UC) was just a one-time event then the inflammation would not keep coming back when the initial bout of ulcerative colitis is resolved.
Exposure to environmental factors called oxidative stressors increase cellular hydrogen peroxide in individuals that are unable to deal with a high oxidant load of hydrogen peroxide. This is the genetic predisposition. The excess intracellular hydrogen peroxide exits the cells that make up the colonic epithelium (inner lining cells of the colon), which attracts white blood cells into the colon causing UC. At the same time, the hydrogen peroxide permeates every organelle in the cell including mitochondria. The resulting oxidative mitochondrial genetic damage leads to a continuous overproduction of cellular hydrogen peroxide, which causes relapse when the medication is withdrawn.
An amphiphilic reducing agent can neutralize intracellular and extracellular hydrogen peroxide, which induces remission but, since many biological oxidation reactions are reversible, a reducing agent also has the potential of reversing the mitochondrial genetic oxidative damage. This would lower the excess cellular hydrogen peroxide produced by mitochondria and preclude future episodes of relapse. Avoidance of oxidative stressors (dietary and lifestyle modifications) is important to prevent a future rise in colonic hydrogen peroxide."
Based on this paper, his treatment is the following: "The treatment consisted of a combination enema (5-aminosalicylic acid, budesonide, sodium butyrate, and sodium cromoglicate) administered simultaneously with a systemic oral reducing agent (alpha-lipoic acid)."
I'm willing to try this on myself as diet and supplements alone don't seem to cut it for me. Even if we don't have the exact protocol, all of the agents have been individually studied in IBD patients. Based on that the protocol should look something like this:
5-amino (Pentasa) - 1G/100ml
Budesonide Enema - 2G/100ml
Sodium Butyrate Enema - 1.1g/100ml
Sodium cromoglycate - 600mg/100ml
The difficult thing here is to find get ahold of these things. Does anyone know an online pharmacy where I can buy Budesonide Enema and Sodium cromo/butyrate?
What are your thoughts on this protocol?
