Research Notes on Ulcerative Colitis and Coconut Oil


Ulcerative colitis is a form of colitis wherein there is ulceration of the large intestine. The main symptom of active disease is usually gradual onset of diarrhea mixed with blood.1 Some researchers claim that coconut oil helps relieve symptoms associated with gastric conditions, improve digestion and bowel function, reduce inflammation, relieve pain and irritation caused by hemorrhoids, and aid in tissue healing and repair.2
