Healing Interstitial Cystitis Without Medication – My Raw Food Success

Cassie Stratton November 13, 2013 Source

I was told by medical doctors IC is a chronic, life-long condition I would have to live with.

I was 2-3 months living with IC. It had debilitated me so bad from the pain I was not walking upright anymore. I was bedridden, I had no energy, and could hardly sleep at night the pain was so bad, it was painful day and night! With no let up.

I found Dr. Robert Morse and started watching videos back to back. I realized if people were healing from a variety of conditions, it’s possible I could too.

Robert Morse said if you can’t afford an appointment or herbs at this moment the best thing you can do is start eating fruits berries and melons.

Well that’s what I did, I ate mostly berries and stopped eating the S.A.D [Standard American Diet]. Within 24 hours I had no pain, I kept this up for 20+ days high raw if not 100% at times and hit a healing crisis, at day 20+ which lasted 3-4 weeks of cold and flu like symptoms from hell lol.

I got IC symptoms Oct 2012, and by January within 24 hours of the raw food diet no pain or symptoms ever again. It’s now mid Nov 2013 and I am still completely healed, thank goodness I found Robert Morse.

Challenge Faced

Persistent UTI-like symptoms; severe chronic pain 24/7; inability to sleep; difficulty getting out of bed; limited daily functioning; symptoms unresponsive to multiple rounds of antibiotics; bladder pressure and discomfort; interstitial cystitis (IC)

Approach Taken

Cassie adopted a raw food diet, starting with berries and smoothies for the first 24 hours. She maintained a 100% raw diet for 20+ days, followed by a 3-4 week detox period. The approach focused on alkalizing the body and eliminating toxins through dietary changes.

Results Achieved

Complete elimination of IC symptoms within 20 days; removal of bladder pressure sensation; ability to function normally again; sustained recovery for 9 months; improved overall health; gained knowledge about healthy food preparation; freedom from chronic pain; returned to normal daily activities; restored sleep quality

Special Notes

While this success story is inspiring, it's important to note that many people with interstitial cystitis are initially sensitive to fruits and may experience increased discomfort.

A gentler approach is typically recommended, starting with mild green smoothies (using minimal fruit) and simple salads. As healing progresses, fruits can be gradually introduced based on individual tolerance levels. Everyone's healing journey is unique, and patience with the transition process is key to long-term success.
