Putting an End to Ongoing Stomach Problems

For too many people, recurring stomach problems are an accepted way of life. They feel as if it is normal and there is nothing they can do about it. Or they resort to medications to relieve their stomach issues instead of addressing the underlying causes. There are better ways to stop your recurring stomach problems.

Common Recurring Stomach Problems

Recurring stomach problems can range from annoying to almost debilitating. Symptoms can range from running to the bathroom at inopportune times to burning pains and sensations. The most common recurring stomach and digestive problems include:

  • Diarrhea
  • Constipation
  • Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD)
  • Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
  • Leaky Gut Syndrome
  • Hemorrhoids

Here are several useful ways to put an end to recurring stomach problems:

Better Water

The cause of ongoing stomach pains and digestive problems could be your water supply. While the vast majority of the water supply in modern countries is managed and controlled by municipal authorities to prevent contamination, the unfortunate reality is that unwelcome particles and microbes can still make their way into our tap water.

The solution is to change the source of your water. Moving somewhere else is an option, but that’s a bit much. Instead, consider a home water dispenser or faucet-mounted filtration system. These devices can keep your water clean and pure, which can help put an end to your stomach problems.

Probiotics

The type of bacteria we have in our gut is probably the most important factor in determining the state of our overall health. We have good gut bacteria and bad gut bacteria. The more good gut bacteria we have, the healthier we will be, and the more likely we will not have recurring stomach problems.

Probiotics are good gut bacteria. When we take probiotics, we are helping to fill our gut and digestive system with good gut bacteria. The best time to consume probiotic drinks is just before the first meal of the day. This will get the good gut bacteria into your digestive tract and gut.

Eat a Healthy Diet

Probiotics are the good gut bacteria and prebiotics are the foods that good gut bacteria need to eat in order to thrive. The kinds of foods that good gut bacteria need are foods with fiber. The only foods with fiber are plant foods like vegetables, fruits, beans, lentils, potatoes, and whole grains. Animal foods like meat and dairy have no fiber.

Most Americans only get about 15 grams of fiber per day, and that is too low. We should get at least 25-30 grams per day. Making sure to add more plant foods to your daily diet will help the good gut bacteria multiply and thrive, and can help you get rid of recurring stomach problems. A healthy diet also includes drinking plenty of water, which can cure stomach problems like constipation.

Reduce Stress

Chronic stress can cause numerous stomach problems because of the brain-gut connection. If you can learn to reduce and manage your stress, you can reduce or completely alleviate recurring stomach problems.

Exercise is a great way to get rid of chronic stress. Yoga and tai chi are also excellent ways to relieve stress. Meditation can help relieve stress and it’s not hard to learn.

Elimination Diet

You can see these ads for antacids that say you can eat all the bad food you want to and just take a pill to get rid of recurring stomach problems. But wouldn’t it be easier to find out exactly what foods are causing your stomach issues and stop eating those foods.

Keeping a food diary can help you pinpoint what food or foods are causing your stomach problems. Start by eliminating the most common foods known to cause stomach problems. These foods are usually peppers, wheat products, coffee, dairy products, and fatty meats.

Check Your Medications

Prescription and over-the-counter medications can have side effects that cause stomach, gastrointestinal, and digestion problems. Make sure to read the side-effects of each medication, and talk to your doctor about any stomach issues you are having and how medication might cause these problems.
