Ulcerative Colitis
Colon Bacteria
The
colon is home to tens of trillions of bacteria. One would think that
surely, somehow, there must be a role played by these bacteria. To date,
however, there has been nothing specific demonstrated, although the
gas, hydrogen sulfide, which is produce by certain bacteria in the
colon, is suspected by some researchers to be a factor. Again, you are
referred to Ulcerative Colitis Dietary Therapy for further considerations of this aspect of the disease.
