What symptom is intestinal cold? What caused it?

Intestinal "cold" and whole body "cold"

Needless to say, all the nutrients needed by the human body come from the digestion and absorption of food by the intestine, which has become a well-known physiological common sense. Let's talk about the waste cleaning and excretion after human metabolism-how serious the consequences will be if the intestine does not perform its mission meticulously. Please read the following information-

First, the intestine needs to be "cleaned" every 18 to 24 hours. Don't say a little slack, that is, there is a little deviation in operation, and food residues will slowly accumulate in some parts of the inner wall of the intestine. Research data show that the thickness of these fecal residues can reach 5-7 cm, and its hardness can be comparable to that of tires! In the long run, they will hinder the absorption of vitamins and minerals by human tissues, leading to nutritional deficiency. Anemia, vitamin deficiency, osteoporosis and other diseases follow, making you a "sick body" like Lin Daiyu.

The second is to induce excessive secretion of mucus, thus covering up allergic symptoms. In recent years, medical scientists have clarified that protein in food is related to many physiological or psychological diseases. Excessive intake of a certain food is the primary cause of food allergy, and almost all foods that are eaten every day have the risk of causing allergies, especially those that are essential and have a single nutritional component (such as chocolate, flour, sugar, food coloring, etc.). Once these irritating ingredients are encountered, the human body will secrete mucus and reduce the absorption of allergic substances by intestinal mucosa to protect itself. Unfortunately, the allergic symptoms that some allergic substances will show when they are absorbed are not noticed. In other words, although it temporarily protects the human body, it also covers allergic diseases and eventually causes health losses.

Third, the retention of food residues causes malignant stimulation to the inner wall of the intestine, which can induce inflammation and even spasm. This situation will further disrupt the absorption of the intestine and aggravate the lack of nutrition. To make matters worse, harmful bacteria multiply and secrete toxins, leading to chronic poisoning of the body, which is called autotoxicity in medicine. Studies have shown that the contrast between excessive intake of meat and sugar and insufficient intake of polyunsaturated fatty acids is the "culprit" leading to self-poisoning. The greater the contrast, the more serious the consequences. The former makes a large number of undigested substances accumulate in the intestine, and these substances rich in protein provide favorable conditions for the breeding of harmful flora, which makes these flora produce toxins and harmful gases at will; The latter will force the surface membrane in the whole human tissue to be brittle, especially the particularly fragile intestinal membrane, and then open the channels for these germs and toxins to invade the whole body organs and tissues. As a result, you gradually feel tired, insomnia, trance, dysmenorrhea, joint swelling and pain ... Don't be nervous, this is just a "little witch", and "big witches" such as rheumatism, heart disease and cancer are still waiting in line behind you!

A healthy angel in the intestine

Speaking of which, it may surprise you. The intestine of each of us is actually a kingdom full of bacteria, with as many as 100 trillion special "small residents". What is the concept of 100 megabytes? For example, there are about 4.5 billion people on the earth, and 100 trillion is equivalent to more than 20,000 times of 4.5 billion. If a person's intestinal "small residents" are arranged in a row, the length can circle the earth for more than 2 times. Like human beings, these small residents like to live in groups. Generally, the same bacteria gather together to form a large family, and scientists name it "intestinal bacterial flora" or "intestinal bacterial flora". Because under the microscope, these flora are just like flowers and plants, so lovely.

In fact, in the earliest days of human life, there were no bacteria in the intestines. This is the period of living in the mother's womb, which is called fetal period in medicine. After leaving the uterus and falling to the ground, it remains sterile for only a short time. In less than 24 hours, some bacteria took the opportunity to enter the body and "settled down" in the intestines, becoming the first batch of "immigrants". Since then, more and more "immigrants" have gradually formed a huge "kingdom".

According to their impact on human health, these "immigrants" can be divided into three categories: one is good bacteria, also known as beneficial bacteria, which are friends of human beings, represented by Bifidobacterium (including Lactobacillus). ). They can prevent pathogenic bacteria causing food poisoning, intestinal infection and diarrhea from invading the intestine; Can inhibit the reproduction of spoilage bacteria and keep the intestinal environment clean; Can produce lactic acid and acetic acid, promote intestinal peristalsis and prevent constipation; Can improve the body's resistance; It can make vitamins necessary for human body, such as B, K, folic acid, etc. It can prevent the generation of carcinogen nitrosamines and reduce the incidence of digestive tract cancer.

The other kind, on the other hand, is called bad bacteria, which are represented by Welsh bacteria, Clostridium, Staphylococcus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and so on. They can be described as bad, and the list goes on. For example, protein in the intestine or amino acid corruption forms substances harmful to the human body; Or promote the increase of blood pressure and accelerate human aging; Sometimes it produces carcinogens. ...

As for the third category, it is mainly Escherichia coli. This kind of bacteria not only has a good effect of synthesizing vitamins or preventing intestinal infection, but also may sometimes become a "murderer" of disease. Generally speaking, sin is greater than merit, and it is among the bad bacteria. Especially when the number is too large, it will bring negative effects to the human body.

These three kinds of bacteria are constantly fighting and filled with smoke, turning the intestinal cavity into a battlefield of "germ warfare". Although the earliest "immigrants" to the intestinal cavity were Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus and other miscellaneous bacteria, Bifidobacterium "appeared" three or four days after birth, but they "came from behind" and took the lead in driving away Escherichia coli on the fifth day, turning the intestine into their "unified world", and the number of other bacteria dropped sharply to below 1%, which remained until about 3 years old. After 3 years old, although the proportion of Bifidobacterium decreased (down to about 10%) and neutral bacteria such as Bacteroides increased, with the addition of lactic acid bacteria, the whole beneficial bacteria still dominated. This model can run through the whole adult life of healthy people.

Unfortunately, with the increase of age, the intestinal flora is also facing aging. Especially the influence of Bifidobacterium is declining. After 60 years old, only 1% of Bifidobacterium remains. The rapid expansion of bad bacteria, led by Welsh bacteria, leads to the deterioration of intestinal environment, the decline of health quality, and gradually enters the aging stage.

It can be seen that the health quality of human body is closely related to the growth and decline of two kinds of bacteria in the intestine. Scientists have introduced a new concept of age to express this trend-intestinal age, that is, the more beneficial bacteria in the intestine, the younger the intestine. The younger the intestine, the healthier the intestine and the better the overall health quality. For example, infants and young children have the highest proportion of Bifidobacterium, accounting for 99%. This stage is indeed the cleanest intestinal environment and the most vigorous life.

Having said that, I believe readers will experience the true meaning of health and longevity with the author, that is, to keep the advantages of beneficial bacteria in the intestine and keep the intestine young. As stated at the beginning of this article, human health begins with intestinal health care.

Self-test your intestinal condition.

You might as well use the following test questions to evaluate your intestinal function-

Do you:

● Like meat and hate vegetables?

● Often fart and stink?

● Does your stomach often purr?

● Life pressure is too great?

● Diarrhea more than 3 times a week?

● Constipation more than 3 times a week?

Stomach pain for no reason?

● Sudden weight loss or sudden weight gain?

● Often flatulence?

● Bloody stool, bloodshot stool, or too dark stool?

If 2-3 answers to the above questions are "yes", it means that your eating habits are not good and your intestines are beginning to protest; If the answer is "yes" more than 5, it means that there is something wrong with the intestine and the age of the intestine is on the high side. It's time to pay attention to intestinal health care.
