The irritable bowel syndrome, what is it?


It means a malfunction and / or hypersensitivity of the gut , whose causes remain unknown, and can result in many symptoms , the most common are abdominal pain , flatulence and alternating episodes of diarrhea and constipation .
When the symptoms are very bothersome or worrisome, it is necessary to consult his doctor to confirm whether or not the diagnosis of irritable bowel syndrome . Note that a lactose intolerance for example, can manifest the same symptoms .

The diagnosis of irritable bowel is confirmed if the pain and diarrhea or constipation were observed for 3 months and associated with some of the following signs: abdominal cramps, bloating, flatulence, urgent need to go to stool, mucus in stools, noisy bowel activity, sensation of incomplete evacuation of stools, etc..

A new study also confirms the benefit of probiotics . These naturally occurring bacteria in the intestine and are actively involved in digestion . They thus have a beneficial effect on the intestines . There are food supplements probiotics , but they are also found in yogurt classics. After analyzing a dozen studies on the subject, the authors concluded that probiotics are more effective than placebo in relieving symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome .
