There are no ulcerative colitis cures as of now so no you cannot cure ulcerative colitis permanently as of now.

In the future someone might come up with a cure for ulcerative colitis but for now all you can do is ease and heal the symptoms of ulcerative colitis by changing your diet and watch what you eat to prevent flare ups.

Cruciferous Vegetables and Fermented Foods can help prevent flare ups and inflammation of ulcerative colitis.
