Diarrhoea

Diarrhoea is usually caused by an imbalance in the intestinal flora or an increase in the number of pathogenic microorganisms such as rotaviruses and bacteria such as Clostridium difficile. With acute diarrhoea, therapy lasts up to several days, while in the case of chronic diarrhoea, it takes at least three weeks. This is a common problem and generally does not pose a health risk but can cause discomfort if not addressed on time.

Did you know that stress, anxiety and other psychosomatic causes can cause diarrhoea?

Travel-related diarrhoea is common when travelling, which can, in spite of being mild in most cases, significantly deteriorate the quality of life.

A more serious problem is diarrhoea caused by an antibiotic treatment (AAD). 40% of children and 5-25% of adults suffer from it. It probably occurs as a result of change of the microflora and the metabolism of the osmotically active substances.

The seriousness of AAD is proven by the fact that 1 to 2.5% of such cases can result in death. The administration of probiotics in the treatment of acute diarrhoea has been well documented in specialized literature. Taking additional, chosen probiotics (BB12 , LGG, L.paracasei CRL-431) can significantly reduce the occurrence and seriousness of diarrhoea.

Gastroesophageal reflux disease

GERD most often occurs due to a dysfunction of the lower oesophageal sphincter (LOS), a muscle that closes the lower oesophagus and prevents the return of gastric content to the oesophagus, oral cavity and airways. The action of stomach acids irritates the oesophagus, oral cavity and airways, which leads to problems that can impair the patient’s quality of life.

H. pylori is a spiral bacteria that can be found on the human stomach lining and is the most common cause of gastritis, a chronic inflammatory reaction of the stomach.

Ulcer disease

A peptic ulcer is an injury to the walls of the stomach, duodenum or oesophagus caused by the aggressive action of gastric juices. A typical symptom that indicates the presence of peptic ulcer disease is pain that occurs immediately after a meal (in case of gastric ulcers) or a few hours after a meal (duodenal ulcers).
