By Andrew Agoado AP – Parkland, Florida – Acupuncture is the ultimate answer to your digestive problems – At the moment, somewhat north of 70 million people in America are suffering from digestive issues that have always made them prone to dementia ,allergies, acne, fatigue, autoimmune diseases, arthritis and physiological illnesses.
In order for you to stay healthy, you need to maintain a healthy, robust digestive system. The problem stems from the standard diet of Americans, which is known to have highly processed foods laden with chemicals. We also as a culture deal with daily dosages of stress at all levels.
Optimal health starts with a sound diet. The sides of your digestive pathways host 75% of the cells of your immune system. This is why our holistic physicians here at our Parkland Florida location feel that if you want to stay healthy, then you need to take good care of your gut.
Causes of Digestive Imbalance
- High levels of stress – work, family, finances
- Unbalanced diet with highly processed foods and poor food choices
- Side effect of many medicines
- Overgrowth of parasites, bugs and yeast
- Underproduction of digestive enzymes and HCL
Your gut has a very instructive role in the body. It breaks down the food substances you consume, filters nutrients and isolates toxins. Because of this burden, it must always stay in top shape.
There is a wide range of digestive issues faced by the regular American, and they could be relatively mild, such as constipation, diarrhea, bloating, reflux, and heartburn or a lot more serious like ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease.
Over the years, we have come to the realization that digestive issues can be successfully treated if the patient makes dietary and lifestyle changes, as well as incorporating some acupuncture with other forms of holistic Chinese treatments.
Here is a look at some of the conditions we have successfully treated with acupuncture:
- Leaky Gut Syndrome
- Small Intestine Bacterial Overgrowth
- Irritable Bowel Syndrome
- Candida Albicans
- Ulcerative Colitis
- Constipation
- Diarrhea
- Diverticulitis
- Heart Burn
- Acid reflux
Always keep in mind that digestion is a key player in the way you feel and function. A compromised digestive tract spells can spell all kinds of trouble for the patient. Sometimes, the resulting issues can be mild and at other times they can turn chronic. At our Parkland Florida location, we have a long-held belief that digestive issues should be nipped in the bud.
