10 Ways to Improve IBS
From an energy science point of view IBS(irritable bowel syndrome) pain occurs because of an imbalance in the GIT(gastrointestinal tract) From our previous blogs it's apparent that the imbalance in the mindbody occurs due to imbalance of qualities beginning in the GIT This is particularly important for those who have associated conditions such as GERD, IC, chronic prostatitis and fibromyalgia
So the key is correct the imbalance in order to get your life back before IBS changed it and turned into a shambles
The Precious Gift
One of the keys to help improve health is to develop a healthy GIT which will go a long way toward improving your feeling of well being But what does it mean to have a healthy digestive system?
Again from an energy science view it means that you have a strong digestive fire which is defined molecularly as all the digestive enzyme systems from the mouth to the anus including all the organisms that help with digestion, the so called probiotic population
In fact it is said that all we need for great health is a good digestive fire! It is indeed a fortunate person born with a strong digestive fire and is able to maintain it through her/his lifetime It is a precious gift that Momma Nature gives us With such a strong digestion like we had when we children, teenagers, and young adults we could eat anything and we thought it wouldn't effect us In part that is true but over time it catches up with us and the fire begins to deteriorate
It's unfortunate that the matter science view of the human physiology does not have such a concept but that's the way it goes
