The Escalating Incidence of Gut Problems! – (Leaky gut syndrome)
And the Escalating Incidence of Lung Problems! – (“Leaky lung syndrome”)
(*This is an article by Marc J. Bielski, M.D. - longer than a post, and NOT spam or AI generated.)
Let’s put aside the food supply issues – the increasing amounts of food recalls, etc., and focus on what’s important…
Most people that suffer with gastrointestinal problems have one or more infectious invaders residing within their gut interior…
And…
Candidiasis usually begins within the gut!
And it can easily progress to establish invasive and systemic candidiasis, including colonizing your gut wall, its tissues, and blood.
Just get a “Live Blood Cell analysis” and you’ll see the fungi and bacteria that are living within your blood. – Live Blood Analysis Training - Naturecure Academy
The Basics…
• The gastrointestinal tract is a warm, moist, and nutritionally rich environment, which supports the growth of microorganisms.
• Many beneficial (good) bacteria perform numerous activities to help the body digest and absorb food. We need them and their byproducts; for example, some produce vitamin K, required by the body to clot blood.
• Although your gut is within you, it is not a closed system and is part of your external environment because its two openings (mouth and a**s) allow substances to enter and exit from your surroundings.
• Contamination occurs when an infectious invader gains entry, which can involve disease-causing yeast, parasites, bacteria, molds, and/or viruses.
• Given all the solids and liquids that enter your mouth, the primary environment for the presence and colonization of disease-causing yeast is within the gut; they readily colonize the mucous membranes, anywhere from your nose and mouth to your a**s. For them, it is a wonderful environment to exist within, survive, and reproduce.
Fortunately for us, there are beneficial bacteria that live and survive within our gut. Normally, they prevent the infectious invaders from taking over. Unfortunately, disease-causing yeast are opportunists that wait for their chance to colonize their surroundings.
Disease-causing yeast versus the beneficial (good) bacteria!
• According to many researchers, the beneficial (good) bacteria’s health is inversely proportional to the prevalence of candidiasis.
• In other words, the greater the population of beneficial bacteria, the less likely disease-causing yeast will cause problems.
• So, anything that injures or destroys the beneficial bacteria will permit the proliferation and colonization of disease-causing yeast.
• Numerous factors adversely affect our population of beneficial bacteria (“Unraveling Candidiasis” – chapter 2), encouraging the colonization and mischief of disease-causing yeast, creating gastrointestinal candidiasis.
• In addition, with respect to invasive candidiasis, evidence indicates disease-causing yeast do not tend to invade the gut wall unless the beneficial bacteria have been disturbed.
• In short, the beneficial bacteria are essential for the health of our gut.
Research reveals some of the ways disease-causing yeast can infect the gut.
• Simply put, disease-causing yeast infect the gastrointestinal tract by directly adhering to the gut wall, sticking to its mucus, being trapped within it, or attaching to a microorganism (fungus or bacteria) colonizing the gut wall.
• And some species and strains (variants) have the enzymes to invade into and colonize the gut wall and its tissues, creating leaky gut syndrome… And what I refer to as leaky lung syndrome.
• And to be complete, let’s acknowledge that disease-causing yeast can invade into and colonize the genitourinary system, contributing to UTI’s, and other urinary disturbances.
A multitude of studies establish candidiasis as a legitimate medical malady!
And not just in third-world countries!
• From my knowledge and over 35+ years of clinical experience in holistic-integrative medicine, most people with frequent, persistent, and chronic medical conditions have some magnitude of candidiasis.
• Yes, the constant presence of one or more species and strains (variants) of disease-causing yeast can promote their infectious and allergic consequences, including an abundance of inflammation.
• And, when you add in the participation of other infectious invaders, including harmful molds, parasites, bacteria, and viruses… That’s when you need to know what you’re treating and why.
• Since the presence and assistance of the beneficial bacteria is essential to prevent this condition, candidiasis has been highly correlated and associated with the use and abuse of antibiotics (chapter 2).
• In fact, anything that disrupts the beneficial bacteria strongly predisposes someone to candidiasis, especially assaults by other infectious invaders. When the number of beneficial bacteria overwhelms the infectious invaders, little or no problems occur. When this balance is disrupted, problems will arise.
