If you have been told that you have Inflammatory Bowel Disease you are likely in the dark about what initially caused this condition. Your doctor may have told you that the causes of your ailment are unknown. That is not true. Your doctor isn’t holding back useful information from you. The truth is that doctors are not taught in medical school what causes issues like irritable bowel syndrome. As a result, physicians don’t have any helpful information to relay to their patients. Inflammatory bowel conditions were never discussed before the 1950’s. This is because they did not exist. There were certainly many stomach and bowel maladies but these were temporary and aside from homemade elixirs they just passed with time. For these simple conditions, plop-plop-fizz-fizz was all we needed.
Now there is a new kid on the block. It all happened just after WW2 when manmade synthetic antibiotics were unleashed into our environment and in our bodies. These have a devastating effect on our gastrointestinal tracts. Being very effective they killed everything bacterial that crossed their path. There was nowhere that was more affected than our gastrointestinal tract. The inside of our bowel is protected by a good bacterial culture known as the mucosal lining. We need this to survive.
This is the beginning of the history of inflammatory bowel conditions. Prior to this, there was no substance that could kill off the mucosal lining. No one ever suffered from any IBD. There are graphs available that show the parallel increase of antibiotic use and the increase in inflammatory bowel conditions. None of this is coincidental. Don’t look to your doctor for help with this. They have bought the antibiotic treatment concept hook, line, and sinker. In fact, if you go to them with a bowel problem you are likely to leave their office with just a prescription.
