Can One Heal A Chronic Illness?
Irritable bowel syndrome is the number one reason for general practitioner referrals to specialists. In over 80% of the cases, tests reveal overgrowth of fungi, parasites or pathogenic bacteria, most often blastocystis hominis and candida. The mainstream thinking on IBS is that it is caused or triggered by stress. The only stress associated with IBS is that which is generated by infection and the leaky gut syndrome. If allowed to persist without the correct treatment, IBS can progress into more serious disorders like the candidiasis syndrome, multiple chemical sensitivities, chronic fatigue syndrome, many autoimmune diseases and even cancer. IBS is rarely cured by mainstream medicine. Treatments must include the removal of the cause, improve the gastrointestinal function and heal the lining of the gut.
