Banish The Post-Christmas Bloat With These Digestive-Friendly Foods
Along with the post-festive flu and fatigue, many of us will be feeling the bloat, tummy cramps and constant wind, following the last week of binge-eating on everything we could get our hands on.
Although the signs of the Christmas feast may still be lurking (yes, we mean those leftovers Quality Street chocolates and mince pies…) lure yourself away from temptation and give your digestive system a much-needed boost.

Top tips for looking after your digestive health this Christmas
It’s the same every year – once the festive season arrives, we abandon all our good habits and dive headlong into a month of OTT indulgence. From mince pies and marzipan to stuffing and stollen, we’re faced with an abundance of food that’s just a bit too hard to resist – meaning that second helpings become an all too common occurrence.
Unfortunately, our bodies aren’t prepared for this sudden binge. Unable to cope with so many rich foods, our digestive systems often start to play up – leaving us feeling uncomfortable at the least opportune moment.
Worried about experiencing digestive problems this Christmas? No one’s saying you have to stick to salad – but nutritionist Amanda Hamilton and the team at Imodium do have some have some helpful advice. Remember these tips and you won’t be left regretting any dietary decisions this festive season...
Canapé catastrophes
Christmas is supposed to be a season of bright colours – so why is most party food boring old beige? Canapés, sausage rolls, sandwiches, cake... it’s all made of beige coloured wheat which is high in gluten and low in nutrients. For some people, repeatedly eating wheat-based products can lead to bloating and an irritated bowel. Try to add some colour to the menu with crudités and dips, fresh fruit and juices to aid your body’s effective digestion.
Under pressure
Love them or hate them, having your in-laws over and your other half’s mother watching your every move in the kitchen would make anyone anxious! Apprehension or stress can imbalance your digestive system, leaving you feeling below par. Try to take measures to ease your stress, incorporating relaxation therapies such as yoga, meditation or music into your festive routine – or just step outside with a calming cup of peppermint tea for a moment to get away from it all.

Digestive System Disorders
The function of the digestive system is to take the food and liquids that we put into our mouths and then either turn these foods and liquids into nutrients or energy needed by the cells of our body, or alternatively turn them into waste products that are then expelled by our body as bowel movements.
When something goes wrong with this every day process and some part of the process doesn’t work properly, the end result is one kind or another of a digestive system disorders. There are many common digestive system disorders.
Common Digestive System Disorders
Colon and Rectal Cancer
Colon and Rectal cancer is also referred to as colorectal cancer.This type of cancer is a malignant cell that is found in the colon or rectum region of the body. The large intestine is made up of the colon and the rectum. Colon and rectal cancers share so many common features that they are referred to as the same cancer which is how the name colorectal cancer came about.
Colorectal cancer is a disease in which cells in the colon or rectum become abnormal and divide without control, forming a mass called a tumor
Colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of death by cancer in the U.S.A. The number of new cases of colorectal cancer has decreased because in large part, the sigmoidoscopic screening and polyp removal procedures initiated by the medical community.
Stomach Cancer
Stomach cancer is also called, gastric cancer. This cancer affected approximately 21,700 Americans during 2001. The majority of those individuals were in their 60s and 70s. The risk factors for developing stomach cancer are Helicobacter pylori infection and a diet that consists of the following: eating large amounts of smoked foods, salted fish and meat, foods that are high in starch and low in fiber, pickled vegetables, and foods and beverages that contain nitrates and nitrites.
Gastric cancer, commonly referred to as stomach cancer, can develop in any part of the stomach and may spread throughout the stomach and to other organs; particularly the esophagus, lungs, lymph nodes, and the liver. Stomach cancer causes about 800,000 deaths worldwide per year.
Diarrhea
Diarrhea is watery stool, or an increased frequency in stool, or both as compared to the normal amount of stool passed by the individual. Diarrhea can be short-term or it can be related to a bacterial or viral infection, or it can be long-term which is usually related to a functional disorder or intestinal disease.
Osmotic diarrhea means that something in the bowel is drawing water from the body into the bowel. A common example of this is "dietetic candy" or "chewing gum" diarrhea, in which a sugar substitute, such as sorbitol, is not absorbed by the body but draws water from the body into the bowel, resulting in diarrhea.
Diverticular Disease
This disease occurs in small pouches that bulge out in the colon. It is an inflammation or infection in the pouches.
These are more common in the sigmoid colon, which is a common place for increased pressure. This is uncommon before the age of 40, and increases in incidence after that age. This is very uncommon but highly dangerous. The diverticulae may bleed, either rapidly (causing bleeding through the rectum) or slowly (causing anaemia). The diverticulae can become infected and develop abscesses, or even perforate.
Gas in the Digestive Tract.
You get gas in your digestive tract by swallowing air or during the breakdown process of certain foods by the bacteria that is present in the colon. Everyone has gas. It can be uncomfortable and certainly embarrassing to pass the gas. The average person produces 1 to 3 pints of gas a day and pass gas through their rectums about 14 times each day.
Heartburn
Heartburn is what most of us get from time to time. Chronic heartburn is a digestive disorder called gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). GERD is caused by gastric acid that flows from the stomach and into the esophagus.
Heartburn, also known as pyrosis or acid indigestion is a burning sensation in the chest, just behind the breastbone or in the epigastrium. The pain often rises in the chest and may radiate to the neck, throat, or angle of the jaw.
Heartburn is usually associated with regurgitation of gastric acid (gastric reflux) which is the major symptom of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).[5] It however may also be a symptom of ischemic heart disease so concluding that it is gastroesophageal reflux disease prematurely may lead to misdiagnosis.
Hepatitis
Hepatitis is an inflammation of the liver that can result in liver cell damage. There are two types of hepatitis – acute and chronic and six main types of the hepatitis virus.
Hepatitis may occur with limited or no symptoms, but often leads to jaundice, anorexia (poor appetite) and malaise. Hepatitis is acute when it lasts less than six months and chronic when it persists longer.
Inflammatory Bowel Diseases
There are several different diseases that fall under this category all of which require a doctor for treatment. Ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease are two of these diseases.
The main difference between Crohn's disease and UC is the location and nature of the inflammatory changes. Crohn's can affect any part of the gastrointestinal tract, from mouth to anus (skip lesions), although a majority of the cases start in the terminal ileum. Ulcerative colitis, in contrast, is restricted to the colon and the rectum.
Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Irritable bowel syndrome – more commonly referred to as IBS – is an intestinal disorder that causes cramping, gassiness, bloating and changes in the bowel habits of the individual with the disorder.
IBS may begin after an infection (post-infectious, IBS-PI), a stressful life event, or onset of maturity without any other medical indicators.
Lactose Intolerance
People with lactose intolerance lack an enzyme that is called lactase. This enzyme is needed by the body to digest lactose. Lactose is a sugar found in milk products. Adults and children are affected by this intolerance. Digestive diseases or injuries to the small intestine cause this intolerance. The symptoms will worsen when larger portions of milk products are consumed.
Stomach and Duodenal Ulcers
Ulcers are open sores or lesions. They are found in the skin or mucous membranes of areas of the body. A stomach ulcer is called a gastric ulcer and an ulcer in the duodenum is called a duodenal ulcer. Lifestyle, stress and diet used to be thought to cause ulcers. Scientists now know that ulcers are caused by hydrochloric acid and pepsin that are contained in our stomach and duodenal parts of our digestive system and that these acids contribute to ulcer formation.

Prevent liver problems by protecting your liver [VIDEO]
Prevent liver problems by protecting your liver.
For example:
For example:
- Drink alcohol in moderation, if at all. Limit the amount of alcohol you drink to no more than one drink a day for women and no more than two drinks a day for men.
- Avoid risky behavior. Get help if you use illicit intravenous drugs. Don't share needles used to inject drugs. If you choose to have sex, use condoms. If you choose to have tattoos or body piercings, be picky about cleanliness and safety when it comes to selecting a shop.
- Get vaccinated. If you're at increased risk of contracting hepatitis or if you've already been infected with any form of the hepatitis virus, talk to your doctor about getting the hepatitis B vaccine. A vaccine is also available for hepatitis A.
- Use medications wisely. Only use prescription and nonprescription drugs when you need them and take only the recommended doses. Don't mix medications and alcohol. Talk to your doctor before mixing herbal supplements or prescription or nonprescription drugs.
- Avoid contact with other people's blood and body fluids. Hepatitis viruses can be spread by accidental needle sticks or improper cleanup of blood or body fluids. It's also possible to become infected by sharing razor blades or toothbrushes.
- Take care with aerosol sprays. When you use an aerosol cleaner, make sure the room is ventilated, or wear a mask. Take similar protective measures when spraying insecticides, fungicides, paint and other toxic chemicals. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions.
- Watch what gets on your skin. When using insecticides and other toxic chemicals, cover your skin with gloves, long sleeves, a hat and a mask.
- Choose a healthy diet. Choose a plant-based diet with a variety of fruits and vegetables. Limit high-fat foods.
- Maintain a healthy weight. Obesity can cause a condition called nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, which may include fatty liver, hepatitis and cirrhosis.
Liver Disease Symptoms - Learning to recognize and understand Liver Disease Symptoms
Liver disease, problems, symptoms and causes
Your liver is the largest organ inside your body. It is also one of the most important. The liver has many jobs, including changing food into energy and cleaning alcohol and poisons from the blood. Your liver also makes bile, a yellowish-green liquid that helps with digestion.
Definition
Liver problems include a wide range of diseases and conditions that can affect your liver. Your liver is an organ about the size of a football that sits just under your rib cage on the right side of your abdomen. Without your liver, you couldn't digest food and absorb nutrients, get rid of toxic substances from your body or stay alive.
Liver problems can be inherited, or liver problems can occur in response to viruses and chemicals. Some liver problems are temporary and go away on their own, while other liver problems can last for a long time and lead to serious complications.
Symptoms

Diagram of the heart
The heart contains four chambers and four valves. The superior vena cava, inferior vena cava, and pulmonary vein are the large veins that empty into the heart; the aorta and pulmonary artery are large arteries that lead out of the heart. The mitral valve and tricuspid valve allow blood to move from the left and right atria, respectively, to the left and right ventricles. The blood is then pumped out of the ventricles to the body and lungs.

Cholelithiasis Diagnosis and Treatment
Epidemiology
The gallbladder lithiasis is a quite entity, over 10% of the adult population .
Etiopathogenesis of gallstones
The etiologic factors:- genetic predisposition
- female sex (women/men ration 2-3/1)
- obesity
- age
- hypoproteinemia
- the number of birth
- diabetes mellitus
Chronic pancreatitis diagnosis and treatment
Definition of chronic pancreatitis
Chronic pancreatitis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the pancreas, with progressive evolution to pancreatic destruction(exocrine and endocrine), evolving towards pancreatic failure.
Clinical features
- abdominal pain, with epigastric or periombilical location, sometimes in the entire upper abdominal region, often appearing after abundant meals.
- steathorrhea (voluminous, pasty, rancing- smelling)
- a chronic alcohol abuse
Gastritis histologic
Chronic gastritis - immuno-competent lymphocytes and plasma cells. It evolves around decades of atrophic gastritis. action rate depends on the presence of neutrophils and the degree of penetration depth and levels. Quiet is characterized by the presence of neutrophils in the lamina propria only. In moderate activity, neutrophils presence of a large gastric foveoles. The degree of activity is a serious, when neutrophils are present in the intraepithelial. Chronic gastritis is activated when neutrophils are absent.
Cholelithiasis diagnosis
Ultrasonographical paraclinical diagnosis: gallstones appear in a photo hyperreflectogenic and launch the "acoustic shadow".
Symptomatic cholelithiasis, which arises billiary colic (colic billiary is hard or violent pain is part of epigastrum or right upper quadrant of the abdomen, sometimes radiating subscapularis usually continue for more than half an hour). Nausea or vomiting, which appear without colic, which do not cause colic billiary.
The differential diagnosis
- renal colic
- chronic pancreatitis pain
- gallbladder polyp
- gallbladder neoplasm
- billiary sludge
- ulcerous pain

Cholelithiasis treatment
Symptomatic gallstones (cholelithiasis) will be discussed at this traetmen is surgical and, more rarely shown by non-surgical techniques.
Medical Treatment of cholelithiasis
- Ursodeoxycholic acid (10 mg / kg / day)
- Ursofalk or its combination with chenodeoxycholic acid (10-15 mg / kg / day)
- Litofalk is 3-12 months until complete dissolution calculations
Lithotripsy is the fragmentation of Extracoporeal cholesterol stones by shock waves Extracoporeal, estimates that one-way or less, preferably less than 15 mm. Lithotripsy resulting fragments were resolved by the administration of bile acids (ursodeoxycholic acid) until the complete disappearance of all stone fragments into the bladder.

Celiac Disease Treatment
A. Dietetics
Celiac disease can have a favorable outcome in the case of a gluten-free diet: wheat, barley, oats and rye will be removed from power.
The disease is curable in general after 3-5 years of gluten-free diet deficient, but the favorable clinical response may appear in 3-6 weeks after starting the diet.
B.Medical
- clear when the response to the elimination of gluten from the diet does not appear.
- Low-dose oral corticosteroids (10-20 mg bid) for a period of 4-8 weeks

Celiac disease
Enteropathy or celiac disease is a chronic Celiac disease may be symptomatic or asymptomatic and can be viewed by all ages.
In the typical forms: diarrhea appear 1-2 hours after a meal (bread, spaghetti, noodles). In advanced forms, steatorrhea and malabsorption.
disease glutenic characterized by diarrhea, steatorrhea and malabsorption caused by intolerance to gluten (a protein found in wheat and wheat products). The morphological element is represented by atrophy of the jejunal mucosa. gluten-free diet leads to reduced clinical and histological disease.
The disease spreads in areas with temperate climate and has a chronic course, with onset or exacerbation after ingestion of wheat products.
The disease is genetically induced, the nature of the family, which is 10 times more common among first-degree relatives of patients and 30 times more common in twins.
