IBS and Gut Problems
A few of you emailed me about your gut problems. Many of you have
more problems than Seborrhea so perhaps you are seeing the wrong
doctor? Mine was a natural holistic type doctor including the
nutritionist and chiropracter…all with the same philosophy..natural
healing to the root of the problem.
If you’ve read the testimonials on Dr. Natura website you will notice
that there were people with IBS. Read this and decide for yourselves
with the help of your doctor.
Gut Problems…Relief
The food and water you eat and drink the food water you don’t eat and
drink could relieve your IBS and more.
To begin with, IBS or Irritable is not a disease but rather a
denfense system. It is a gut indicator that your body is toxic.
Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting
different results without changing behaviors. Many people want good
health but they want a magic pill to fix them so they can continue
with their life just as it was before their health failed.
Gut problems and most diseases are indicators that you are out of
alkaline/acid balance. Imagine your body as car battery. If you give
your car battery a proper acid and water balance then it will give
your body the boost it needs to wake up in the morning and keep
giving you a proper amount of current to keep all of its electrical
systems. You don’t even think about your car battery unless something
starts going wrong with your electrical systems. If you have gut
problems, your body like a battery may start but it will start
showing signs that it is in decline. IBS and 95% of all health issues
are indicators that should be telling you that your battery low on
water or has an improper amount of acid. It is easy to add distilled
water to your human body but just like a car, many of us ignore the
signal until we have a dead cell. Unlike a car though, you can’t
throw out your body and start over. Our bodies are an amazing battery
though and if you give it the proper acid and water it needs,
you can relieve your IBS, Chronic Fatigue, Fibromyalgia or Leaky Gut,
Hormonal Imbalance, Diabetes, Parasites, HIV, Gout, Allergies,
Psoriasis, Cancer and every other disease.
There may be a cure for IBS in the sense that you may some day be
capable of eating toxic foods and drinking toxic water again but if
you have gut problems then be aware that it is like the red light
going off on the the dash of your car. Many people want to run to a
doctor to get their body to stop sending that signal.Doctors are good
at masking symptoms without addressing the cause of the problem. If
you take drugs to mask the signals your body is giving you then you
may get temporary relief that prevents your body you sending you a
danger signal but consistently ignoring our body may lead to chronic
illness. Make some dietary and lifestyle changes and you may overcome
disease and any gut problems or health condition you might have.
Many other people around you may eat the same food you eat and drink
the same water you drink and they may appear healthy but for you that
same food and water may cause your body to give you a warning signal
that you are poisoning yourself. IBS could be a big red flag that you
need to eat or drink something different than what other people eat
and drink. Imagine there are 5 kinds of people in the world and for 4
of those kinds people, what you eat might be considered food to their
body but for you of the fifth kind of people, what you eat could be
considered a toxic chemical. Eat and drink what is right for you and
your body.
An elimination diet could help to isolate what is causing your body
to warn you that it is being poisoned. Start in the morning and quit
one thing that you normally eat or drink for breakfast. If it is
coffee, milk, tap water, or even a piece of toast, pick one thing to
quit putting in your gut. Give it a week and if you feel some relief,
you should consider eliminating this food and substituting a more
healthy alternative. Move on to lunch then dinner and identify then
eliminate what your body is telling you is toxic. Discover what is
causing your body to send up a danger signal and you may no longer
have IBS related gastro-intesinal disturbances.
Milk and other dairy products- are the end product of a cow that has
had toxins pumped into it from birth and for all of its life.
Vaccines and hormones are pumped into milk cows to fatten her up and
to increase her milk production. Vaccines are necessary to prevent an
unhealthy fattened cow from getting diseases. If you had been
vaccinated with dozens of immunizations and pumped up with steroids,
do you believe your body would be good food? You drink milk or eat
dairy at your peril. I would stop dairy before eliminating any other
food. 100’s of toxins can be eliminated from your body by making this
one dietary change. Dairy does not do a body good.
Coffee is is a diuretic- A body that is perfectly functioning needs
water to eliminate toxins. Coffee cause the body to use fluids you
get from food and water to eliminate the coffee you put in your
system. If you eat mostly raw foods from fruits and vegetables then
your body may be capable of handling small amounts of coffee. If you
drink no water at all then you are going into the negative. Drinking
coffee may be causing your bowels to slow down from a lack of fluids
to move and eliminate food
that is stuck in your bowels. If you are a caffeine achiever, you may
have positive temporary results from increased energy and mental
clarity but you may be aggrivating your bowels. If caffeine is not
causing bowel flare ups, you should still drink three glasses of
distilled water for every cup of coffee you drink.
Sugary drinks- Refined sugar plugs up the gut and prevents it from
functioning properly. 25% on North American’s calories come from
sugary drinks. If you are going to continue drinking sugary
beverages, you will need to drink three glasses of distilled water
for every sugary drink you consume just to break even.
Margarine is a non-food that might be causing your body to reject it
therefore causing your bowels to flare up in disgust. Your body
doesn’t know what to do with non=foods. Eliminate non-foods from your
diet and you may end your flare ups. Margerine is used in many
processed foods and snack foods. Buyer beware.
Wheat Products- may be causing your bowels to be irritated. Bread,
Pasta, and many thousands of wheat based products are not considered
food by many bodies. You may be one of those mixtures of blood type
and genetics that senses that wheat products are toxins and your
bowels let you know it. Eliminate wheat and processed foods for a
week and see if it helps with reducing IBS symptoms. A gluten free
diet is hard to do if you want to eat processed foods but for you it
might be that you are not supposed to eat processed foods and wheat.
If your body is sending you a signal to stop eating
wheat then it may severly limit fast food eating and salty snacks but
is that such a bad thing?
Microwaved food- is the same thing as non-food. In Russia they
outlawed microwaves because they did research and determined that
microwaves destoyed the DNA of food cells and made it nutritionally
worthless(Thanks for the tip Andreas). Cats were fed just microwaved
food and they all died after several weeks from malnutrtion. Your
body may be sensing you are giving it non-food when you microwave
even good food and
then sometimes your body may reject it by giving you a kick in the
gut. The gut doesn’t recognize non-food as food and doesn’t know how
to break it down so it will stay plugged up in your gut until it
recieves the minerals and enzymes it needs to move the non-food out
of your body. Give your body healthy food and you may find relief.
Microwaves take perfectly good food and turn it into non-food.
Eliminate one thing at a time and each time you quit something toxic
to you, you may have more and more relief until one day you are toxin
and IBS free.
Every mechanic knows to use distilled water for filling up car
batteries. The other chemicals and minerals in tap water is not good
for a car battery. Tap water or even spring water could be causing
you to have IBS gut responses. Tap water has many chemicals in it
that might cause your gut to become enflamed. Flouride, chlorine,
lead, mercury, PCB’s and hundreds of other potentially gut irritating
substances may be in your drinking water. Even spring water may be
toxic to you as spring water is stored in plastic bottles and you may
have a reaction from the plastic particles in bottled water. I would
suggest making your own distilled water as a good substitute if
spring water is causing you IBS problems. At the very least, switch
out distilled wateer to glass containers as quicly as you can.
Mineralize your body to give it what it needs. A good friend of mine
suggested that I should put 12 grains of brown rice in three or four
glass containers of distilled water and rotate and replace the rice
when you finish each container of water. This is the perfect water
for our body. Take the toxins out and add the good minerals back in.
If you want to continue eating toxic foods and non-foods, there are
ways to help your body digest the non-foods better but elimination is
always better. The following could be helpful to relieve gastro-
intestinal sufferes;
The Water Cure is the most simple way to improve bowel function and
provide your body with what it needs to eliminate toxins. Your
elimination system may be rebelling against you for not drinking
enough water. Drink 6-8 glasses of distilled water every day with a
pinch of unrefined Sea Salt until all gut and gastrointestinal
symptoms are gone. This will remineralize and rehydrate your water
and mineral starved body. When you no longer have IBS flare ups, back
off on the salt until you are at a maintainace amount of one or more
glasses of salty water each day but continue drinking 4-6 more
glasses of water each day unless you are getting all of the water
your body needs from raw fruits and veggies. When your urine is clear
then you will know that your bodies digestive function is operating
in an optimal acid/alkaline range. I began have two healthy bowel
movements a day when I began the water cure.
* Remember that drinking sugary drinks and coffee are not the same
thing as water.
Apple Cider Vinegar creates good flora with the proper amount of acid
for your gut- Despite what you might think, your gut may not be
capable of digesting food properly because it does not have enough
acid to process food. The little acid it does have is used to yell at
your body for sending it toxic foods. If you want to eat toxic food,
raw unfiltered apple cider vinegar is by far the best way to create a
perfect acid/alkaline environment that will help your body digest
cooked foods, break down non-foods and refined sugar that you have
put into your body. I take apple cider vinegar daily for health
maintainance and I have not had a day of sickness since. Give Apple
Cider Vinegar a try.
Apple Cider Vinegar- is strong tasting stuff and some people give up
on it before they find a way to take it so that it agrees with their
pallet. Some people can slug a tablespoon or two down in a glass of
water and see immediate results. If you can do this, great. Although
I can take apple cider vinegar straight, I try different ways to make
my apple cider vinegar easier to swallow and even better for my
health. Apple Cider Vinegar will give your gut what it needs to
digest food and it may give you a gift of gut and gastro-intestinal
relief. I take a tablespoon or two of apple cider vinegar in a cup of
strong fruit juice, juiced carrots or some other juiced veggies every
day. Strong fruit juices from unsweeted organic apples, grapes,
pomegranetes, and blueberries are tasty fruit drinks that make apple
cider vinegar easier for me to swallow. Veggie Juice and Fruit Juices
have the added benefit of giving your body something good for it too.
Try apple cider vinegar with strong juices.
I mix in herbs and spices into my apple cider vinegar fruit and
veggie drinks. I always add a dash or three of cinnamon to my apple
cider vinegar for taste and cinnamon’s amazing health benefits. I
also add cayenne if I feel mucous coming on. This is a terrific
combination when flu or cold symptoms try to attack my body. Turmeric
is a spice from the ginger family that is also good for colds and flu
plus it is also good for tummy problems. Try little bits of herbs and
spices to add to your juice and apple cider vinegar. Give your body
the right formula that works well for the batch of chemicals that is
your body.
Parasites are common problem for people with gut problems. If you
have undigested rotting food in your gut from improper acid/alkaline
imbalance and improper fluid levels from not drinking enough water or
eating raw fruits and veggies, then parasites that would have been
expelled by a proper functioning body, will find a home in your body.
Wild Oregeno Oil, Sea Salt, and Vitamin C make living in your body
unbearable for parasites. If you have parasites and most people with
gut problems do, I would suggest taking a shot glass full of carrot
juice with a drop of wild oregeno oil and a tablespoon of apple cider
vinegar with a dash of cinnamon every morning when you wake up. Also
add substitute sea salt for table salt in your food. Take mega doses
of Vitamin C for immune function and with all of these combined,
parasites will be sceaming to get out of your body. Nature finds a
way to start sending parasites to break down rotting food. If their
is undigested food in your clogged up gut, parasites will begin to
invade. There may be some flu like symptoms as parasites are dying
off so make sure to drink heavy amounts of water while taking oregeno
oil to kill parasites.
Balance your diet- I did mention veggie juice and fruit juice as
important foods but you should also consider balancing your diet
while adding more and more fruits and vegetables as you reduce and
eliminate toxic foods and non-foods from your diet. You are what you
eat including foods and non-foods. Eat good food and the bonus you
will recieve is a healthy body. What you put in your body is what you
get out of it.
Find what works for you- All in all, there are many ways to relieve
gut problems but each of us is a different animal and there may be
slight diferences between you and everyone else. Even different
brands of car batteries may require slightly different amounts of
water and acid. Finding that perfect balance is what makes what I eat
and drink worth it for me. Your body wants to heal itself. Give it
the tools to do so and it will respond. Stay in tune to what your
body needs and it might not only relieve your gut problems, your
proper functioning body might just make you a more happy and healthy
you.
