I have a different brand, collagenous colitis (6 years). I manage it by avoiding NSAIDs (like aspirin). Legumes can also cause flares with me. I'm also gluten free (celiac). Stress is a big trigger for colitis. You might consider keeping a food log or an elimination diet, just to see if any foods make it worse. I have a friend with ulcerative colitis, and it is a very nasty disease. Collagenous colitis mostly turns my colon into a large water balloon, but it is stable through diet and stress management.
