A recent study found that inflammation (there’s that word again) is responsible for bad bacteria gaining a strong foothold in the gut.
Intestinal inflammation produces nitrate, which then feeds these bad bacteria and thus worsens intestinal damage while crowding out probiotic bacteria.
When bad bacteria multiply and take over, a condition known as gut dysbiosis, they can cause a multitude of symptoms such as cramping, bloating, diarrhea and abdominal pain.
These symptoms are common in disorders like colic, ulcerative colitis, inflammatory bowel disease and Crohn’s disease.
Thus, learning to control inflammation is a key component of getting these conditions under control.
Did you know that gut dysbiosis, which means there are too many pathogens outnumbering probiotic bacteria, is linked to autism, PDD-NOS, ADHD, allergies, asthma, sensory processing disorder, colic, eczema, IBS and autoimmune diseases like lupus, fibromyalgia and rheumatoid arthritis?
Having a son with a developmental delay was very hard on me. He didn’t walk until he was 20 months old. This was extremely hard for me because he didn’t walk until 3 weeks before his little brother was born, and I was having to carry him everywhere.
