Symptoms of dysbiosis.
In the human intestine - a normal microflora, which facilitates the digestion of food. These are lactobacilli, bifidobacteria, several types of Escherichia coli and the like. But along with the useful microflora in the intestine, there is constantly a certain amount of opportunistic microflora actively multiplying under certain conditions and causing various diseases. Moreover, the conditionally pathogenic microflora interferes with the process of digestion. The condition, when the amount of opportunistic microflora is increased, in fact, is called dysbiosis.
During dysbiosis, not only digestion is disturbed, but also immunity. People who suffer from it often fall ill with colds.
Dysbacteriosis can appear against the background of antibiotic treatment, during severe illnesses, eating disorders, lack of vitamins and the like. Almost always the dysbacteriosis takes place together with chronic diseases of the gastrointestinal tract.
Symptoms of dysbiosis are flatulence, constipation, diarrhea, abdominal pain, weakness, increased fatigue and various allergic reactions.
Nutrition for dysbiosis.
Due to the fact that the mechanism and causes of dysbiosis can be different, then the diet should also be more or less individual. However, there are some general recommendations for proper nutrition in this disease.
For example, the diet of patients with dysbacteriosis should not include digestible carbohydrates. With prolonged diarrhea, flour foods are not recommended, at the same time, vegetables and fruits are absorbed quite well. However, it happens, raw vegetables, which contain a lot of rough fiber, are poorly digested by patients with dysbiosis, so they should be replaced with stews.
If the disease in the dysbacteriosis in the intestines lead decay processes, then fruits and vegetables are simply irreplaceable. Vegetables should first be eaten in boiled or stewed form, and then gradually go over to salads from fresh vegetables, freshly squeezed juices and fruit salads. Brake the progress of food and reduce diarrhea products, which include tannin (strong tea, bilberry, cocoa), food in a grated form, mucous soups, concentrated food and small amounts of liquid.
When constipation is advised to use dishes that stimulate the movement of stool in the intestines: fruit juices, dairy products and purees. However, if the constipation continues, then the food should be enriched with the fiber of fresh fruits and vegetables. Most useful is a salad of fresh cabbage, which was called "broom for the intestines." Promote the progress of food and cereals (oats, buckwheat, pearl and millet porridge), as well as cold dishes.
Patients with dysbiosis should exclude from the diet products that irritate the intestinal mucosa. These are smoked, pickled, spicy, fried, sour, spicy dishes, as well as some vegetables: radish, garlic, onion, sorrel, sour fruits and berries. Negative effects on the intestines of strong meat, mushroom and fish broth.
The "average" products include meat and fish in chopped form, a little dried white bread.
Some patients with dysbiosis can not tolerate fatty foods. This indicates that they have violations of the bile-forming function of the liver.
Nutrition for the disease dysbiosis should abound with vitamins and minerals that take an active part in digestion. With dysbacteriosis of the intestine, a positive effect is produced by apple puree. When the disease worsens, it is prepared from stewed apples of sweet varieties. After reducing the exacerbation, switch to apples in grated form. Puree from apples is a prebiotic, that is a good nutrient medium for intestinal microflora. Moreover, due to the content of sufficient amounts of pectic substances in apples, they have an astringent effect, which makes them especially useful with a tendency to diarrhea.
At a dysbacteriosis it is not recommended constant observance of a correct delivery as it can aggravate a current of disease. Therefore, dieting is recommended only if the disease worsens.
