Self-care of chronic colitis is the key to prevent recurrence and cure the disease.

1. Besides avoiding colds and controlling emotions, diet is a very important aspect. Do not eat gas-producing foods such as beans and bean products, wheat and flour products, garlic, leeks, sweet potatoes, preserved eggs, Chinese cabbage, peanuts and melon seeds during the attack and remission period. Because once eating, the gas in the gastrointestinal tract increases, and gastrointestinal peristalsis is affected, which can induce diseases and even aggravate symptoms.

2. Persimmon, pomegranate and apple all contain tannic acid and pectin, which have astringent and antidiarrheal effects. Chronic colitis can be eaten in moderation.
