Qing Dai (Indigo) put me in remission and I was able to come off all meds after two years of non stop flares. They use it in China to treat UC. I order it online in pill form so super easy to take. I...

Is this an oxymoron considering you have colitis now? The point is it builds up. Bromine builds up in the body and is corrosive to tissue. Also Carageenan can be organic however there are two ways...
