Relation between Gut Bacteria and the rest of our body
Our gut is the beginning and end of our health. How we treat it on a
daily basis determines our longevity and how disease free we’ll be.
If you would like to heal yourself and get back on the wellness bandwagon, you need to treat your gut right. The good news is that simple changes to diet and exercise can reverse the damage.
How Gut Bacteria Affects The Brain And The Body
We've more bacteria in our body than it was earlier known. Research now shows that the bacteria living in our digestive tract, play a significant role in our health. Some physical and mental health conditions that have been linked to imbalance in gut flora.
Depression- More than a 3rd of depression sufferers have a leaky gut, or permeability of the gut lining that allows bacterium to seep into the bloodstream.
Anxiety- Pre-biotics can have anti-anxiety and anti-depressant effects. Consuming beneficial bacteria can also positively charge the way the brain responds to the environment.
Schizophrenia- Studies in mice have been linked to a lack of normal gut bacteria with changes in brain development, but the genetics of the disorder are complex and not fully understood.
Autism- Autism often co-occurs with gastrointestinal issues like leaky gut or irritable bowel syndrome.
Parkinson's disease- People suffering from this disease have different gut bacteria than healthy people.
Obesity and diabetes- A number of studies have linked instability in the gut microbiome to obesity and obesity linked health disorders.
Crohn's disease- Crohn's disease- Abnormally high levels of certain bacteria strains may be present when Crohn's disease develops, possibly triggering an atypical immune response.
Colon cancer- Sugar loving microbes in the gut- along with the carbs that feed them- can fuel colon cancer. High carb diets may even be contributing to the rise of colon cancer.
Ulcerative colitis- Imbalance in the gut flora may be the main factor in both the onset and continuing symptoms of ulcerative colitis.
Rheumatoid arthritis- Studies have found a link between low levels of certain good gut bacteria, high levels of unhealthy Prevotella copri bacteria and auto immune joint disease.
Irritable bowel syndrome- There is a definite link between IBS and an overgrowth of bacteria in the small intestines.
There are thought to be more than 5,000 species of bacteria living in your gut. Here are a few main ones-
Helicobacter pylori - most common bad bacteria causes ulcer.
Lactobacilli- May ward off stress and anxiety.
Methanobrevibacter smithi- responsible for the majority of methane production.
Bifidobacteria- effective in treating many intestinal conditions.
Lactobacillus Helveticus- associated with reduced anxiety and depression.
Bifidobacterium Longum- associated with reduced anxiety and depression.
A smoothie to help the gut in good shape-
carrots 3
green apple 2
garlic clove 1 small
lemon juice 2 tbsp
ginger 1"
blend all together in a mixer jar with enough water and enjoy to keep you gut in good shape.
