Crohn’s Disease, Colitis, IBS - Liver/Lymph Connection
FUNCTION Digested food (chyme) passes into the cecum as a semi-liquid concoction that includes enzymes from the liver, pancreas and small intestine. It is here that friendly bowel flora performs its magic and completes the process of extracting valuable nutrition from the chyme. This material moves through the ascending colon, hepatic flexure and transverse colon to the splenic flexure via peristaltic action. What remains after this process is ‘feces’, which now moves into the descending colon. Any toxic material from the blood and lymph are also transported through the feces and out the rectum. Optimal transit time depends on the initial input of roughage and on numbers of other conditions experienced throughout the process. How well did you chew your food, just how stressed are you, and how toxin-free was the food you ate? The characteristics of your stool upon arrival in the toilet bowel and how frequently it occurs is the ultimate indicator of food choices and organ health and is strongly indicative of potential trouble down the road. It’s important to pay attention! THINKING TWICE If we take a look at bowel dysfunction and disease, we can see a direct relationship between the nervous system and intestinal health. Stress alone causes interference with peristaltic action and the production and release of enzymes. Other factors such as chemicals, pollutants from air, water and foods, and spinal subluxations act as stressors and directly or indirectly affect our digestive function ability. Simple trouble shooting uncovers the reasons behind bowel conditions.
You can suspect Crohn’s disease if you experience:
There are many similarities between Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis but the primary difference is the degree of involvement of the intestinal walls. Ulcerative colitis is limited to the mucosa and sub mucosa, which are the two layers of lining closest to the mid passageway. Crohn’s disease goes deeper and involves the muscular layer and connective tissue layer. So what causes Crohn’s disease? The cause is unknown and there is no conclusive evidence that infection is responsible. The exception is when the colon becomes irritated and narrowing or obstruction of the ducts draining into the liver occurs. The backup of debris and toxins provides the perfect breeding ground for bacterial infections. Contrarily, more than half the population is infected with cytomegalovirus (CMV), which is part of the herpes family. CMV is present in 36% of patients with inflammatory bowel disease. Crohn’s patients consistently experience a deficiency in such minerals as calcium, copper, gold, iodine, iron, magnesium, manganese, potassium, selenium, sulfur and zinc. A Penn State study found vitamin D to be lacking with Crohn’s disease. Vitamin C and E have also been identified as deficient in sufferers of this condition. Irritable Bowel Syndrome Unlike Colitis or Crohn’s disease, there are no physical manifestations of the condition that can be observed therefore it can be classified as a functional disorder where the bowel becomes extra sensitive, especially under emotional duress. No pathological or tissue changes confirm its presence and the intensity of symptoms vary and include:
Eliminating the possible infection of the protozoan called Blastocystis Hominis, from contaminated food or water is important. Parasites such as Giardia and Amoeba share many of the same symptoms as IBS and should be ruled out. IBS is caused by such things as diet, lack of fiber, nutrient deficiency, antibiotic use, overuse of laxative, stress, nervousness, fructose intolerance, poor combination of foods, bacteria or viruses, or sugar over consumption. Large amounts of mucous form to create a buffer between the toxins and you. Some research indicates a strong relationship between emotional factors such as being abused as a child and IBS. Ulcerative Colitis Ulcerative Colitis is a chronic condition where ulceration can potentially perforate intestinal walls and become cancerous. It may involve the rectum, the last few inches of small intestine where food is moved to the large intestine, but is not isolated to this area. One of the eminent dangers once the walls of the colon become affected is that Diverticulitis can develop. Enteritis and ileitis are other inflammatory processes often involved in Colitis. Colitis, Ulcerative Colitis and IBS exhibit a sodium and potassium ratio that is greater than 6:1 therefore manifesting an excess of inflammatory hormones. Liver, Lymph and Bowel Connection Colon Complications Diminish Health and Vigor Improve the bile secretion for proper intestinal elimination using specific enzymes Check out your Thyroid efficiency. Thyroid plays a major role in all detoxification processes and strongly affects the intestines. If it is under functioning, normal bowel elimination is not possible. Keep minerals reserves up. Proper mineral balance eliminates cramping and other symptoms so that healing can take place. WE ARE WHAT WE EAT Never Fear, Help is Near!

This newsletter brings you the topic that so many find difficult to breech. The state of your colon. The colon is often the most ignored organ in the body yet the most important to maintain. Many highly regarded practitioners will agree that all health starts and finishes in the colon, therefore making its function of primary concern. Let’s first take a look at what the colon is responsible for.
Crohn’s Disease
Any pain associated with Crohn’s is generally in the area of the appendix, therefore is sometimes confused with an appendicitis attack. Complications of Crohn’s disease may include bowel obstruction, bowel perforation, formation of pus collections, fistulae, cancer of the bowel and intestinal hemorrhaging. Any of these symptoms can extend and generate problems in joints, spine, eyes, liver, bile ducts, and cause abdominal distention, nausea and vomiting.
Anyone who realizes that there is a direct relationship between disease and their food intake is already ahead of the game! Vitality, energy, endurance, and well-being depend on the perfect biochemical state of our bodies. Food is the nourishment that provides the raw materials we need to maintain health and heal disease and supplements become the building blocks that assist the life force within. Extra fiber and Omega-3 oils along with potassium help heal and clear toxins from the colon. Friendly bacteria in Soil Based Organisms directly aid Crohn’s Disease, Ulcerative Colitis and Irritable Bowel Syndrome. Aloe Vera specifically calms and soothes inflamed and ulcerated tissue within to quickly relieve and heal.
OMEGA-3 FISH OIL A study published in the New England Journal of Medicine found that pharmaceutical grade fish oil greatly reduced the pain of Crohn’s disease, IBS, and Ulcerative Colitis. The test was done using a dose of 1 gram per day but Dr. Barry Sears highly recommends using 5 - 10 grams per day. He has seen that doing this for two weeks is very successful! Once pain is less or eliminated, reduce the dosage in small increments until pain reappears and adjust accordingly from there. Each person will find their own dosage level.
