New Approach for Gas Problems - Diverticulitis and Flatus Retention
Is it possible to get little personal?
Hope you co-operate. Thanks for that anyway!!
There is a major problem that torments large number of people in this culture from the middle of our life.
This is found to be culture specific and it is the westerns who are the real sufferers. The medicine of today doesn\'t know the actual reason behind this. This is called Diverticulitis.
Diverticulitis is a pain for a large number of the population as colon or the rectum is involved in this. As the time passes, the walls of the colon get impaired out of increased pressure whose reason is unsolved.
The weakened and impaired areas are pocketed outwards due to this pressure leading to the formation of sacs where digested matter gets collected.
These sacs are named as diverticula. These sacs present in a person are said to have diverticulosis. Those diverticula’s, which get infected it leads to diveticulitis. This is a very painful condition like appendicitis thereby leading to the rupture of colon wall. This is a very serious condition.
This situation ends up in formation of increased pressure with large intestine. Sacs are formed due to the pressure exerted by this.
The fiber which was considered as the reason for this was later found to be a wrong assumption as reducing the level of fiber caused prevention of proper elimination process occurring in the body. Diverticulitis is common among both vegetarians and non-vegetarians.
Though certain diets found to prove good against it in one research, the contrast was found in the other. Therefore there were no conclusions that could be drawn from the research as far as the increased colon pressure is concerned.
Thus, there is no particular treatment for it. It can be prevented by proper fiber intake and emptying the bowels. It is the reason that is to be blamed. We hold in our waste products inside our body to maintain certain guidelines and manners.
Holding waste products in is the reason for increase in colon pressure. It is true that everyone would have undergone such situations one time or the other.
You need to have experienced it in a social situation inconveniently. The culture and rules that we set for ourselves makes our waste management an issue leading to procrastination. The final outcome is the increased colon pressure and sac-creation (diverticula).
Holding in the gas is a major problem than holding in the waste alone. The term used for this is called flatus retention. The higher status refers to more flatus. That is the reason why medicine finds no reason for diverticulitis.
There is a cultural issue surrounding this, which doesn’t think honestly the actual problems caused by it. An article published in British medical journal was titled “Flatus retention is the major factor in Diverticular disease”.
It was neglected and medicine finds certain drugs and surgeries are more preferable than conveying the people the actual reason for it and preventing it.
Self-analysis of your body is necessary for those suffering from diverticulitis. You should keep a check on the number of ties you are made to eliminate, pass the wind and how often you don’t and try holding it in.
A medical anthropologist and director of the institute for the study of culturogenic diseases named Sydney Ross singer believed that our bodies are healthy but due to cultural and mannerisms hinder our lifestyle it causes problems and take our health in their way.
The body gets healed when elimination process is done properly.
This approach has led to the finding the reasons and some cure for common diseases caused by culture. Mrs. Soma Grismaijer, the wife of Mr.Sydey is a co-researcher who has published books of several path breaking and mind-boggling health issues.
Sydney’s qualification includes B.S in biology from Utah University, an M.A degree in biochemistry and anthropology from duke university, PhD in medical humanities and 2years of medical training at UTMB.
