Nobody will give you the specific reasons for IBS. Some experts believe IBS is a motility disorder. This suggests that IBS patients are sensitive or hyperactive bowel and respond to changes in stress, nutrition and hormones.
In a typical chaotic bowel, IBS, it is not surprising that it is considered motility disorders. The transit time of a meal with the release of an anomaly.
Sometimes it is slower than normal causing constipation and other times, it is faster, which causes diarrhea. IBS is generally divided into two groups, diarrhea or constipation predominant predominate. Some of them have diarrhea and constipation other.
In general, however, the transit time in IBS is unpredictable and may at any time be faster or slower, which is why the chairs vary in frequency and consistency of watery droppings hard and shapeless.
Some say that IBS is a food problem.
Certain foods will trigger IBS and others seem to help.
IBS ResearchUpdate.org gives a list of foods that cause IBS, and others that are useful. Some of the items mentioned in both lists. It is the nature of irritable bowel syndrome.
Just food stimulates intestinal muscle activity. This is normal and is the most common gastro colic reflex. This reflex is strongest after breakfast. In IBS, large meals, fatty foods, or simply poor diet can cause very severe stomach cramps reflexes. This leads to abdominal pain and diarrhea.
There is no evidence that food causes IBS, but certain foods, and the amount consumed at one time can cause symptoms.
One suggestion is that the fault causes IBS is in the nervous system. Intestine is a complex network of brain cells called the enteric nervous system. He has more than nerve cells of the spinal cord. The Gut Brain "" associated with the brain. Some researchers believe that the understanding of Irritable Bowel Syndrome, we must understand how the enteric nervous system.
Gut has the richest Combined serotonin in the body. This chemical is closely related to the nervous system. At present, many studies have focused on gut serotonin receptors.
Serotonin affects the nerves in the intestine and regulates smooth muscle contraction of the intestine. This result is peristalsis, a smooth rhythmic contraction along the gut that facilitates the movement of fecal matter in the colon.
Low levels of serotonin leads to constipation, diarrhea and upper levels due to normal.
If the gut and the brain are connected to the gut-brain axis, a variety of factors that affect the central nervous system (brain), can influence events in the intestine. This includes psychological factors such as anxiety, stress and depression. Apart from trauma, such as physical, psychological and sexual abuse can affect the gut. Statistics show that there is a high incidence of psychological trauma and violation of IBS. It is assumed that, in addition to the treatment of IBS, taking into account other issues will give you the best long-term results.
Gastroenteritis and IBS: Between 20-30% of patients who develop severe gastroenteritis will go on developing IBS. Common infectious organisms are Campylobacter jejuni, Salmonella and Shigella and E. coli. Gastroenteritis causes inflammation of the intestine due to the overproduction of serotonin. In the thirty percent who develops IBS, the serotonin imbalance continues.
For some women, symptoms fluctuate during the menstrual cycle. Two hormones that control the menstrual cycle estrogen and progesterone. These hormones can affect the colon and the passage of residue along the gut. In some women IBS is worse at some point in their cycle.
Professor Jonathan Brostoff of Middlesex Hospital believes that yeast is involved in some cases of irritable bowel syndrome. These patients reducing bacteria, lactobacilli and bifidobacteria in the colon. This leads to an overgrowth of Candida
Low yeast-free diet was increased to IBS. This plan includes a stop cheese, all cheese is not just blue cheese, and change the bread soda bread, rolls, chapattis and any other unleavened bread. Sugar should be avoided. Avoid alcoholic beverages, spirits, but at a high level and have little or no yeast. Eat in moderation.
