Ulcerative Colitis is a disease that causes inflammation of the lining of the large intestine, resulting in ulcers in the walls of the digestive tract.

This is caused by the shedding of the inflamed intestinal lining.

- Fruits and vegetables that stimulate the intestines,
such as fresh fruits, uncooked vegetables, vegetables with skins, dried fruits, berries, corn, and grains. Because they tend to cause gas in the stomach and stimulate the intestines. Which may make stomach pain and other illnesses worse. - Spicy foods can cause diarrhea and may trigger or worsen symptoms.
- Caffeinated beverages such as tea, coffee, แทงบอล UFABET ราคาดีที่สุด ไม่มีขั้นต่ำ, chocolate. And energy drinks can stimulate the intestines, causing diarrhea and causing the body to lose water.
