About this blog

This blog examines current ideas on alternative treatments for Crohn's disease. Although the medical community will tell you that diet doesn't matter, or that alternative treatments are worthless for treating Crohn's disease, this is only because there hasn't been as much double blind clinical testing for most alternative treatments. Therefore they cannot with certainty offer them to you. But, the truth is, many treatments can have an effect on Crohn's disease, or at least improve your general health. We attempt to examine them here.

Human Para Foundation: Test and Treat MAP to Cure Crohn's Disease

This article recently appeared in my inbox from Human Para Foundation:

The fascinating videos on this page describe a case study of a woman with some Crohn's features to her disease who was successfully tested for MAP and treated for it with a cocktail of antibiotics. The first video describes the study, and the second video is the question and answer session that followed.

Also on this page is the following video:

In this video, a man testifies that he was cured of severe Crohn's through antibiotic anti-MAP drugs. It also says that there is a doctor in New Mexico that treats Crohn's with anti-MAP drugs.



There is also now a test that is claimed to detect MAP:

It is $250, and you must get your blood drawn locally and have them send it to the lab, which is in New Zealand. The test is also not FDA approved.

Should we do this? I do not know.
