Behcet's disease

[Alicia92]

I have just been diagnosed with BD and really do not want to be on doctor prescribed medications. Is there any diet, supplement and all natural way to keep the symptoms away? I've read up on a ton of things I can do I was just wanting to know if someone has tried the all natural route and if it is helping?

Diet, not overdoing things, a good night's sleep, and extra sleep if needed help. I also think Omega 3 oil supplements are helping.

But for me these are in addition to prescription meds.

I have eye involvement.

I went natural, and had a major relapse. Check with your doctor first

I have had BD for the 42 years I have had steroids when I have major flares but no other meds. I take flax/linseed oil tablet daily vegetarian one I use a 100% natural toothpaste greenpeople organic lifestyle. Very rarely get ulcers now used to get 25/30 at a time the pain. Also never put anything which is not natural on my skin otherwise I get body ulcers. Hair shampoo etc all organic washing clothes all natural. I watch what I eat never any process foods organic as much as possible grow vegetables have chickens etc for eggs meat. I know that coffee crisps chocolate and many others give me IBS symptoms so don’t eat. Keep a diary of what you eat and drink. Alcohol not very often as it upsets the balance. Hope this helps. All the best.
