My dad was diagnosed with U/C last year and was given tons of medication. What actually helped him to get completely better and he hasn't had any more symptoms is he started having ginger tea. All he does is buys fresh ginger, cleans it, and then boils it is water on the stove for about 20 minutes. He drinks it a few times a day (like 2 mugs) and he is better. He mentioned to me this morning that it started making his gums turn a little colored so he now drinks it through a straw. I hope this helps because my dad doesn't have the flare ups.
