IBS (IRRITABLE BOWEL SYNDROME)
Definition:
Inflammation of the colon or large intestine, especially its mucous membrane. This disorder is commonly known as IBS or irritable bowel syndrome.
Symptoms:
This is characterized either by runny or constipated bowels, mucoid discharge from the bowel, weakness felt in the abdomen, often headache, pain, dizziness, etc. There is often a connection between colitis and stress. We see diarrhea, pain, cramps, and even in the later stages, bleeding and dehydration. Calcium deficiency is common.
Cause:
This is caused by faulty diet, too many food mixtures irritating the stomach and bowels, hasty eating (insufficient mastication and saliva), taking liquids while eating, excessive use of cathartics, and foods cooked in aluminum. The infection of the bowel, which results from meat-eating, also gives rise to colitis and causes a spastic or contracted condition of the descending colon, a condition found in the most obstinate forms of constipation.
