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.
If you’re struggling to digest meat or suffering from gas, bloating, and GERD, you most likely have low stomach acid.
