Fluids
Diarrhea and vomiting causing by ulcerative colitis might lead to dehydration. Thus, it is important to drink plenty of fluids to complanate for these losses. These might include diluted fruit juices, low-sugar sports beverages, and water. Avoid ice-cold drinks and caffeinated beverages such as tea or coffee as they would worsen your diarrhea. Aim for at least 2 liters of water on a daily basis, including fluids from drinking and eating. Drink slowly to avoid irritating and cause discomfort in your digestive system. A simple way to monitor sufficient fluid intake is to examine the urine color. It should be clear or pal. [8]
