Chlorophyll

I have tryed Kyro-Green from the GNC store, and I mixed it when I started juicing when I was on a diet. It didn't taste bad at all, and sometimes I would just drink it with water. It says that it helps the intestional track, so I guess that is why you are feeling better drinking this chlorophll drink.

That's great you found something that helps with your bleeding and pain....I actually use bee propolis which is a natural anti-inflammatory, anti-fungal and anti-viral which stopped all my bleeding and all my pain as well...I've been taking it daily for over 4 yrs now and my GI is thrilled that I've had such success with it, it even helped cut back some of my daily BM's....however I found that taking one thing just isn't enough so I added some other things, omegas 3-6-9, prodiem stool bulker, probiotics (primadophilus reuteri), eat healthy, no processed anything, and this along with chamomile tea daily has brought me from 30 BM's a day to 5 or less, formed, pain-free, blood-free BM's a day.

Do you take any prescription medication?

I'm only skeptical because I've spent the last 23 years trying countless combinations of natural remedies and haven't noticed anything (except negative results). You name one and I've probably tried it and some are very difficult to accomplish
It annoys me whenever I think someone is trying to pull one over on the desperate folks in here. Two years ago I tried the very products you said benefit you but I had no improvement, once again. Not to say it doesn't help you, though.

I sure wish I could get by with just using the natural stuff.

Wooky, I didn't think you were profit modivated and thanks for sharing. My skeptisism peaked with your statement "all the nutrients of plants"--sorry, but that statement requires more explanation for me. I know chlorophyll is what plants use to convert CO2 and H20 into carbohydrates or food--the photosynthesis process. I am extremely skeptical that companies are selling chlorophyll for humans as cure-alls. I'm skeptical but open for a logical explanation. I'd like to know how it stopped your pain within 1/2 hour of drinking it (that's not really enough time for it to reach your colon so it would have to work systemically. Unless the product you are taking has a pain reliever in it I conclude that your pain relief may be from a placebo effect. This is not bad, if it works for you then glad to hear it. Some are helped by yoga as well. 

These chlorophyll extractions come mostly from alfalfa which provides some nutrition but it's not the best nutritional plant source for humans. Alfalfa is mostly used to feed cattle because it provides a lot of food at a minimal cost. How much nutrition it has depends on how it's grown (soil, fertilizer, etc.). Since we already have plently of other green vegetables that taste much better and provide even more chlorophyll and other vitamins and minerals I see no reason to buy this product just based on anecdotal evidence of it helping someone named wooky on a health forum (no offense to you).

To answer your question I am two years into a remission but have started to take some probiotics and am looking for more stuff to try as over the last 10 years I don't stay in remission longer than a few years. What usually happens is I get sick with some virus then 2-3 weeks later I start a flare. I figure I'll use stuff that shows reasonable evidence of helping. I've been burned a lot on gimmics (SCD just about killed me--I was really sold on that one after reading the book and all the testimonials).

Thanks.
