UC is disease of nature with in between symptom free periods. In con-temporary science there is no curative treatment for UC. Symptomatic relief is provided with steroidal drugs and drugs like salphasalazine. So, this is need of hour that a protocol should be designed to provide relief to patient suffering from this disease.

A three months of treatment with proper lifestyle led to complete relief in symptoms. Keywords: Ulcerative colitis, Rakta atisaar, inflammatory bowel disease
