In the event that you have never had a dysbiosis, you are hardly worried about its causes, which are not so many, since not all factors have a negative impact on the intestinal microflora. However, everyone should know what causes dysbiosis in adults.
Antibiotics are not the first reason for the occurrence of dysbacteriosis. Such funds can be taken as recommended by a specialist, and without it, and mostly uncontrolled and not really thinking about the consequences. Many antibiotics are taken alone with:
- Cold.
- Cough.
- An upset stomach, and an unrelenting diarrhea.
- With dental pain.
- Prevention of influenza.
And if you often prefer to use such drugs, then you can be sure - a certain harmful effect on the intestinal cavity has already been applied. Antibiotics have the property to destroy not only pathogenic microorganisms, but also useful bacteria, as a result of which there is a dysbacteriosis - a violation of microflora. And with the systematic influence of antibiotics, it will definitely start to develop. Therefore, there is a rule: you need to use antibiotics only if there were medical recommendations because of a particular disease in the optimal dosage during the prescribed time.
Parasitosis is one of the causes of
dysbiosis Parasitosis is another factor for the development of dysbiosis. Lamblias, ascarids and pinworms are so spread that they can feel like "masters" in the intestinal cavity. The cause of the disturbance of its microflora is that they can not coexist peacefully with useful microorganisms. As a result, the natural microflora begins to yield.
It is worth noting that not so long ago there were data, indicating an unusual role of parasites in dysbiosis. American scientists conducted an experiment on monkeys, in which animals suffering from chronic diarrhea, specifically infected with eggs of parasitic worms. A few weeks later they decided to compare how the composition of the microflora changed.
As it turned out, it began to change in a positive way. Along with this, they began to speculate that parasitic worms can positively influence the microflora. Therefore, it is by no means a fact that in the near future they will be considered as a cause of dysbacteriosis.
What causes dysbiosis?
As a cause of intestinal dysbiosis in adults, pathological processes of any part of the digestive tract are considered. For the normal functioning of the microflora, it is required to maintain all the indices at the same level:
- In the stomach cavity - a certain indicator of the concentration of hydrochloric acid in the gastric juice.
- In the cavity of the duodenum - a certain amount of intestinal juice, bile and enzymes of the pancreas.
- The liver should produce a specific measure of bile volume.
- In the cavity of the bile ducts - free delivery of bile to the intestinal cavity.
If the work of at least one department of the digestive system is disrupted, all of the digestive tract will suffer. The reason is that the intestine begins to accumulate undigested food, intermediate ballast substances, in particular, having toxic properties, which leads to the development of dysbiosis.
The causative agent of the dysbiosis
Another cause of the disease is infection. Such a cause is rare, but if the infection is still present, then in 100% of cases there is a dysbacteriosis. As the most common pathogens of dysbacteriosis are dysentery, pseudotuberculosis, salmonellosis. To counteract these pathogens imbalance microflora, useful microorganisms just not in force. In addition, the treatment of such infection is possible only with the help of antibiotics, which causes a second stroke on it.
What causes dysbacteriosis?
Another reason for the occurrence, which is more common among the female sex, is the purification of the body by taking laxative sorbents and enemas. This is explained simply: women more than representatives of the male love to engage in self-medication. And it is in the race for slenderness that the reception of specialized teas and uncontrolled cleansing of their intestines begins in various ways, from which there is a violation of microflora.
And for greater efficiency, that is, to derive the causes of slags, sorbents are added. Undoubtedly, these are really effective means, however, at what cost is this "beauty" achieved!? The appearance of dysbiosis!
Along with unnecessary waste begins to go away and a useful microflora, from which the intestinal disease begins. Moreover, with so many cleansings, the wall flora begins to wash out, which is the cause of even greater complications.
Why does a dysbacteriosis occur when dieting?
As well as the previous one, this cause of dysbacteriosis is more common among women. They do not see much work, that would limit themselves from taking certain products in order to achieve harmony. At the same time, most newfangled diets are limited to only a dozen products. And if the lady decided to stick to the mono-diet, then in general one should eat only one and the same thing.
The danger of such diets lies in the deficiency of dietary fibers that are required for the nutrient medium of the healthy intestine. From the fact that the body stops receiving useful substances, the microflora of the digestive system begins to die.
Causes and symptoms of dysbiosis
If you still adhere to any of the above lifestyle, then you should know what signs the disease has:
- The condition of the stool changes. So, mainly diarrhea begins, although constipation is also one of the signs of the disease. In some cases, there is an alternation of these symptoms. The fecal mass has a liquid characteristic with the presence of putrefactive or sour smell and mucus.
- Flatulence, manifested simultaneously with increased intestinal peristalsis.
- Abdominal pain.
- Nausea and vomiting.
- Itching and peeling of the skin, dryness in the mouth, manifestations of an allergic reaction.
- General condition worsening.
It should be noted that the listed symptoms of dysbiosis in adults are nonspecific.
Causes and treatment of dysbiosis
The main treatment will be aimed at eliminating the cause of dysbiosis. Along with this, there is a therapy to restore microflora. However, the use of some medications to treat the causes and symptoms of dysbacteriosis is not enough, therefore, it is required to take measures to restore its own bacteria by the body itself. This requires compliance with a specialized diet. In any case, with the correct definition of the causes of the disease, and if you follow the recommendations of a doctor, then you will quickly get rid of the disease.
