What would you give to finally be able to eradicate your IBS for the rest of your life? Do you think it is worth a 30-45 minute consultation?

Irritable Bowel Syndrome affects millions of Americans. Both male and female are affected.

First, you must understand that there is a cause or multiple causes to this annoying condition.

Now, this bowel disorder is really a malfunction of your bowels. You may feel alternating periods of diarrhea and constipation. You may feel bloating and cramping immediately after eating meals. In some cases, this bloating and cramping may even develop several hours after eating. You may even feel that you cannot empty your bowels completely. Sometimes a white mucous can even be noticed in stool.

IBS – or irritable bowel syndrome – CAN cause other health problems to develop. Actually, most other health concerns can be directly related to gastrointestinal disorders. And yes, IBS can cause defects to occur in your gastrointestinal lining.

Now, since you are reading this you must have already been diagnosed by another physician with IBS. And you must have already tried some recommended dietary changes, medicines, therapies, etc. and you still suffer. And like most patients, keeping a diary has not helped you to pinpoint what is the cause of your condition, right?

So, let’s get right to the point. IBS can be caused by one or more of the following:

Neurotransmitter imbalances: in your brain, there are specific regions which control your colon. In each of these regions of your brain, there are chemicals called Neurotransmitters. Neurotransmitters can become excited or inhibited caused by stress. So neurotransmitter imbalances can lead to organ malfunction.

Food sensitivities: all of us have certain food sensitivities. Most people often have food sensitivities which go undetected.
Blood tests and stool tests will determine exactly which foods are causing gastrointestinal irritation. Like some people eat certain foods and break out in a rash or hives…you may be allergic / sensitive to foods and IBS is your expression of the sensitivity.

Blood sugar imbalances: Most commonly people who suffer from IBS have insulin resistance aka pre-diabetes or possibly diabetic. A comprehensive blood test can determine what state your blood sugar levels are on a daily basis.

Gall Bladder function: some people have their gall bladder removed. This will cause regular irritation of their intestinal digestive process. If the gall bladder has not been removed, most often the gall bladder needs some support. Blood tests can determine if there is an underactive gall bladder. Regular bile acid production is one of the keys to normal intestinal function.

Stomach Acid: Hypochlorhydria aka irregular stomach acid production – even without GERD – can lead to protein fermentation in the intestines. This will always cause irregular bowels.

Adrenal Gland Stress: stress hormones are created by the adrenal glands. Regular function can become impaired due to stress. An adrenal stress test can help to pinpoint another piece of the puzzle related to your IBS problem.

Furthermore, mineral deficiencies can lead to IBS also.

As you read this information you can definitely understand there may be one or more causes to your IBS. And you may begin to understand there is definitely an answer for you and relief for you too.
