Re: RE: Vascular flushing and antibiotics.

[Guest guest]

Tony,

I couldn't send this to your Email address for some reason so I'm posting it

on here and hoping you read it.

Sorry if I've asked you these questions before but I'm confused.

LGS damages the Lymphatic system? So does this mean the argument could be

made that LGS caused by long-term antibiotic use could be responsible for

the facial swelling I am suffering from? (I am sure part it is caused by

cea, but there's another part of it that I know definitely is caused by

something else) Also is there a way to be tested for LGS? I am thinking of

sending away for a test from Great Smokies Lab for digestion/candida, is

there a test for LGS also?

Also, if food allergies maintain LGS even after Candida is eradicated, how

do you get rid of LGS? I definitely have food problems now after longterm

Minocycline use.

Thanks a lot!

Adam

chronic health care complaints, in today's society. In LGS, the epithelium

(outer surface of cells) of the small intestine becomes inflamed and

irritated, which allows metabolic and microbial toxins of the small

intestines to flood into the blood stream. This event compromises the liver,

the lymphatic system, and the immune response including the endocrine

system. It can be a e primary cause of the following common conditions:

asthma, food allergies, chronic sinusitis, eczema, urticaria, migraine,

irritable bowel, fungal disorders, fibromyalgia, and inflammatory joint

disorders including rheumatoid arthritis. It also contributes to PMS,

uterine fibroid, and breast fibroid. Leaky Gut Syndrome may also be the

basis for chronic fatigue syndrome and pediatric immune deficiencies.

This quickly led to septicemia that might be treatable, or more probably,

ended in death. Outside of trauma, the body maintained a wonderfully

effective selective barrier in the small intestine, one that allowed

nutrients to enter, but kept out metabolic wastes and microbial toxins

rampant in the intestines.

> What modern event allowed such a breakdown? Primarily it has been

antibiotics, secondarily non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).

NSAIDs are commonly taken for various pains, and include ibuprofen (Motrin,

Advil). They are quite damaging to the small intestine mucosa lining. Since

their entry into mainstream medicine in 1939 antibiotic use accelerated.

Among other conditions, they have been heavily prescribed for pediatric ear

infection, bronchitis, and sore throat. It is sadly ironic that many of

these infections are viral in nature. In this instance, not only are the

antibiotics damaging, they are also unnecessary.

> Antibiotics create their damage in two ways. The first is by destroying

beneficial bacteria. The small intestine and large intestine host over five

hundred different kinds of beneficial bacteria. These bacteria perform

hundreds of functions required for healthy metabolism and immune response.

Through enzyme secretions, bacteria transform metabolic and microbial wastes

before the body discharges them. These wastes include cellular debris,

hormones, chemical wastes, bile, pus accumulations, viral toxins, bacterial

toxins, etc.

out of the liver, but also, by its cold and bitter nature, to detoxify many

of the poisons accumulating in the liver. Bile however is extremely caustic

to large intestine epithelium. When bile enters the small intestine via the

common bile duct, beneficial bacteria break the bile salts down into a less

caustic compound, making it non-dangerous by the time it reaches the large

intestine. When you take antibiotics you destroy these bacteria and the bile

salts freely enter and damage the large intestine. I believe this

contributes significantly to the high incidence of colon cancer plaguing

today's society.

from the liver to the small intestine. If you lack the bacteria to break

down estrogen and the intestinal permeability has been altered, the patient

is now reabsorbing estrogens in their original state. The body will deposit

these in estrogen sensitive areas such as the breast, uterus, or ovaries,

contributing, if not causing, fibroids and tumors. The same scenario is

responsible for premenstrual syndrome as well.

growth of Candida albicans and other pathogenic fungi and yeast. This event,

more than any other, precipitates Leaky Gut Syndrome. In a healthy situation

the small intestine epithelium maintains tight cell junctions, which

contributes to the physical barrier involved in intestinal absorption. In

addition to the physical barrier, there is an important chemical barrier

within the mucus. This barrier contains immune agents that neutralize any

toxin that comes in contact.

epithelial cells to shrink. This allows intestinal toxins to infiltrate

through the epithelium and into the blood. The secondary barriers, immune

agents in the epithelial mucus, remain the sole agent for neutralization.

Eventually, the immune system becomes exhausted rising to this challenge.

> Many people have an erroneous belief that the Candida itself enters the

blood stream, allowing it to be deposited elsewhere, such as the brain.

Unless the immune response is completely depleted, as in AIDS, Candida is

quickly destroyed in the blood. The real damage done by Candida is to the

intestinal epithelial barrier, allowing the absorption of serious toxic

agents and chemicals, which then enter the blood and affect numerous organs,

including the brain.

> Food Allergies: The Complicating Factor

> When the integrity of the intestinal barrier has been compromised,

intestinal toxins are not the only pathogens to be absorbed. The barrier, in

a healthy state, selectively allows digested nutrients to enter the small

intestine when all is ready. With leaky gut, nutrients can be absorbed

before they are fully digested. The body's immune response, through specific

antigen-antibody markers, will tag some of these foods as foreign irritants.

Every time that particular food touches the epithelia, an inflammatory

immune response is mounted which further damages the epithelial lining. What

started as a Candida irritation with shrinking of the cells has now been

complicated with active inflammation every time a particular food is eaten.

Food allergies are a common secondary problem to Candida, and if present,

will maintain the leaky gut continuously, even if the Candida is eradicated.

> The most common food allergies are dairy, eggs, gluten grains (wheat,

oats, rye), corn, beans (especially soy), and nuts. There are seldom real

allergies to meat, rice, millet, vegetables, or fruit, although an allergy

to garlic is not uncommon. We have to distinguish a real allergy - that

which causes a histamine inflammatory reaction at the site of the small

intestine (SI) epithelia - from sensitivity, which may cause uncomfortable

symptoms, but seldom is damaging. Sensitivities are usually due to low

stomach acid or pancreatic enzyme secretion, that is, poor digestion.

> In the healing of the intestinal lining, exposure to a significant allergy

can sabotage the treatment. For example, one may be very good at restricting

wheat, dairy and eggs, but then compromises the treatment by taking garlic

tablets.

A great book about probiotics is:

Probiotics nature's internal healers

by Natasha Trenev

Isbn: 0-89529-847-3

I bought mine att amazon uk. One thing the book take

up is the importance of choosing the right probiotics,

cause many brands doesn't live up to standards.

I really recommend it.
