Do you often suffer from abdominal pain, diarrhea and/or constipation?
When bowel problems come to the fore, it's high time to make a change! This is because intestinal complaints massively restrict everyday life and quality of life.
Irritable bowel syndrome is a collective term for complaints in which no specific disease can be identified. And yet the normal function of the intestine is disturbed. Sufferers report abdominal pain, cramps, flatulence, constipation and diarrhea. Often, other symptoms such as migraine, depression, intolerances or an irritable bladder come along in the process.
The ordeal for people with irritable bowel syndrome is long. For clarity, other diseases must first be ruled out in a series of tests before the diagnosis of irritable bowel syndrome is finally available. A rectal examination, gastroscopy, colonoscopy, blood and stool examination as well as an ultrasound are performed.
➤ 50% of all people with gastrointestinal complaints suffer from irritable bowel syndrome!
Patients with irritable bowel syndrome are often divided into groups based on their different symptoms. However, the boundaries to the other types are often very blurred and intertwine.
➤ Women are twice as likely to develop irritable bowel syndrome as men!
The exact cause of irritable bowel syndrome has not yet been definitively clarified. However, it is very likely that the symptoms come from:
➤ In Europe, depending on the definition, between 2.5% and 37% are affected by irritable bowel syndrome!
Unfortunately, there is no single correct treatment, as the syndrome has various causes and symptoms. However, there are some methods that can alleviate the symptoms.
Fiber can help with diarrhea in particular. Linseed and psyllium (ideally already ground) are particularly suitable. However, other seeds and grains as well as vegetables and fruit are also recommended. Drink plenty of water so that the fiber can swell. If you also have intolerances, avoid these foods. You should also generally refrain from flatulent, fatty or very hot or cold foods.
Tip: Keep a food diary to keep track of what you tolerate well and what you don't. This can sometimes be very revealing.
Nature has a lot to offer when it comes to intestinal complaints. Fennel, aniseed, caraway or peppermint, for example, are suitable for the flatulence type. Probiotics are particularly recommended for constipation and diarrhea, as they help to regulate the intestines and bring them back into balance. Natural painkillers such as turmeric or MSM can provide relief for pain sufferers.
Caution with medication:
Irritable bowel syndrome puts an enormous strain on one's own quality of life. A full 60% of those affected also suffer from depression.
Why is that? Our psyche and our gut are constantly connected to each other in interaction via the gut-brain axis. For example, anger and stress affect bowel activity. The result is abdominal pain, flatulence, diarrhea or constipation. Conversely, digestive problems cause a bad mood, which can even end in depression.
As the psyche and gut health are so closely linked, it makes sense to look after your mental health as well as building up healthy gut flora. According to experts, symptoms can improve by up to 50 % even with placebo administration. This proves that the psyche plays a major role in irritable bowel syndrome.
Tips for the psyche:
➤ 60% of affected people with irritable bowel syndrome also suffer from depression!
Irritable bowel syndrome severely limits the quality of life of those affected. Because the causes and symptoms are so different in nature, there is no single right way. Rather, sufferers should try different methods to alleviate the symptoms.
Irritable bowel syndrome can go away on its own in some people. For others, however, it can also become a chronic problem.
So it's important to get good treatment. This can lead to a strong improvement in symptoms. If the living conditions are right, especially the factors of stress, intestinal flora and nutrition, a cure is even possible in the long term.
