For those specifically dealing with IBD (Ulcerative Colitis or Crohn’s) – WELL NOW: Reclaim Your Life from Ulcerative Colitis is your guide to lasting relief
Are you tired of UC controlling your life? Ready to find relief that goes beyond medication? This book is your roadmap to reclaiming your health.
“Well Now: Reclaim Your Life from Ulcerative Colitis” by Jacki McEwen-Powell, a certified Integrative Nutrition Health Coach, offers you a comprehensive, science-backed approach to managing UC. Drawing from her own battle with UC and years of research, Jacki shares the strategies that have transformed her life—and can transform yours too. This is the book she wishes she’d been given when she was first diagnosed.
What You’ll Learn:
How to Tackle the Root Causes of UC: Understand and address the “troublesome trio”—inflammation, leaky gut, and the gut microbiome—rather than just masking symptoms.Actionable Strategies for Real Relief: Get practical advice on diet, stress management, and natural therapies that go beyond traditional medicine.A Holistic, Personable Approach: Jacki’s engaging style makes complex topics easy to understand and apply, blending humour with valuable insights.
This isn’t just another book on UC—it’s a guide that empowers you to take control of your health with strategies that work. From dietary changes to alternative therapies, this book covers everything you need to know to live well with UC.
Why This Book Stands Out:
Personal Experience: Jacki knows what it’s like to struggle with UC, and she shares her journey and success to inspire yours.The Book She Wishes She Had Been Given: Written from the heart, this is the book Jacki needed when she was first diagnosed—a comprehensive, supportive guide for anyone with UC.Holistic Healing: Learn how to manage UC from every angle—diet, stress, lifestyle, and more.
Join the growing community of readers who have found hope, relief, and a renewed sense of control over their health. Your journey to long-term remission starts here.

Buy! This! Book!
Buy! This! Book!It doesnât matter if you are a âvictimâ of Ulcerative Colitis, the parent, friend, partner or spouse of one who is, this book will help you to reach the point of understanding it from start to remission. My Husband has this brutal condition, and in my journey to help him learn to âtreatâ it better, I purchased the book. It is so well written, and easy to read and filled with valuable information I didnât know I needed to have. I understood UC better, was able to put 2 and 2 together, having watched him struggle for years, and know how and what could help him walk in a different path to restructure his burden. Being written by this remarkable woman who, herself struggled with it and found her way to a freedom in spite of UC, the journey, understanding, path, and life changes as well as challenges come from not just the first hand experience, but from the heart as well. This book was written to be shared and to help those of us who have this life-long condition in some way touch our lives and show us how we can address it and âsilenceâ it in many ways, and often long term. I read many articles and watched a crazy number of videos on UC which were often over my head, or even boring. Because I personally didnât have UC I never fully understood what it truly is like. For me, Jacki McEwen-Powell covered so many âbasesâ so I was able to see and understand the path we were on and the journey ahead. So often, while reading, a bell went off in my head. Ding Ding. Because I could connect and better relay things to my husband. He isnât a reader so this helped me be in a position to help him understand it too. If you are on the fence, just buy it. Itâs inexpensive and worth the read, especially if you are new to this, and if you have had it for a while, but still not making progress, this can help, if for nothing else, to understand. Plus, it is super easy to read and not be able to put down. The author needs a YouTube channel. I am more adaptable to âwatchingâ than reading. And yet, this book proved easy to read and so very helpful, to me. And more helpful than many videos I viewed. Itâs surely not the only resource you need, but itâs on the top of my list.

So positive and helpful
I think this book should be a must read for everyone with Ulcerative Colitis. I read it first then gave it to my daughter who has UC. Am now ordering it for son-in-law. It was easy to read and gives you hope for dealing with this disease. The information is practical and doable!

UC Warrior must read!!!
This book is the UC answer I have been looking for! I read the entire book in one day and took 14 pages of notes! The chapters are short and there is no “fluff.” It is easy to read and understand. She even includes chapters on the importance of mindfulness, breathing and grounding, and explains how all of our body systems can impact our digestive system and gut biome.She shares personal stories, which humanizes the author, showing her depth of knowledge and experience.I cannot recommend this book enough…whether you have a family member with UC, have just been diagnosed yourself, or have been a UC warrior for years, I promise you will get something out of this book!

A must have resource for UC
This has been the most comprehensive and informative UC resource that I have read. This book is well organized, explains causes, treatments, lifestyle changes, diets, personal experiences from others with UC. Each chapter has a recap of information. This book is a must have for newly diagnosed people with UC or those that are searching for modifying diet and lifestyle to reduce medication usage.

A literal goldmine of practical & applicable information!
Itâs absolutely tailored for UC however Iâd argue that anybody suffering from health issues would benefit from flipping through these pages. Fantastic advice & the âtakeawaysâ after every chapter make for quick & easy bookmarking

Very informative!
My son was diagnosed when he was 17. It has been a battle, even more so because he left home for college. It helps to put myself in his shoes.

If youâre tired of quick-fix solutions and misleading promises when it comes to managing Ulcerative Colitis, Well Now: Reclaim Your Life From UC is the honest, reliable guide you need. The authorâs deep understanding of gut health and the realistic approach to achieving remission through diet and lifestyle changes makes this book a must-read. Having been in remission for over two years, the author shares her detailed journey, providing valuable insights into what truly works in the long term.What sets this book apart is the balance between medical information and practical strategies. The science behind UC is explained in a way thatâs easy to understand, and the recommendations are not just theoryâtheyâre things that can be realistically applied to everyday life. From gut-healing foods to stress management tips, this book covers it all without overwhelming the reader with jargon or unrealistic expectations. If youâre serious about taking control of your UC, this book is an investment in your health that you wonât regret.

There is so much useful information in this book! It has advice and practical ways to solve gut health issues even without having UC. I particularly like the âprimary foodâ section which isnât about food at all but lifestyle tips. Iâve read books dedicated to fasting, meditation and gut health but this book is an all-round self care book Iâll dip into again and again. Would thoroughly recommend.
