Birth, old age, sickness and death are the laws of nature, and no one can escape them! As a medical worker, even if you know the importance of healthy eating and living habits, you will inevitably get sick. I already had a bad stomach, but not long after I survived the epidemic, I fell ill and suffered from ulcerative colitis, which is a common person.
Causes of poor quality of life in patients with ulcerative colitis:
1. Worry about malignant transformation: If colitis is not treated in time, there is a certain malignant transformation rate, generally between 1% and 2%, which does not heal, and the malignant transformation rate is increasing year by year, and ulcerative colitis for more than 10 years must go to the hospital for regular colonoscopy follow-up.
2. Fear and embarrassment: find a toilet for abdominal pain and diarrhea, and when an acute attack occurs, the stool is bloody, pus and bloody stool, many times a day, which is frightening. Frequent visits to the hospital, it is uncomfortable to have colonoscopy, and it is also frightening to worry about the damage of colonoscopy to the intestinal mucosa.
3. Pain and discomfort: unformed stool, mucus stool, many times, sometimes vague abdominal pain, sometimes bloating, sometimes diarrhea, sometimes constipation, tenesmus, want to pull but can't pull, swelling and uncomfortable, etc.
Fourth, recurrent attacks: simple drug treatment, often effective, stop the drug recurrence, long-term treatment is difficult to heal, the more serious the treatment, some doctors simply tell the patient, the disease is not cured, need lifelong medication.
5. Drugs hurt the body: long-term consumption of Western medicine for the treatment of colitis has strong toxic side effects, in addition to hurting the liver and kidneys, there may also be allergic reactions. Even if it is traditional Chinese medicine, there are certain toxic side effects when taken for a long time, after all, "it is a medicine with three poisons".
6. Life is boring: colitis is not in the inflammatory attack or stable period, we must strictly pay attention to the diet structure and lifestyle, which can not be eaten, that can not be drunk, can not sit for a long time, can not be tired, can not stay up late, there are many precautions, mental pressure, long-term anxiety, fear, depression, doubt.
As a medical worker, when I was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis, I couldn't avoid the above six situations, the difference is that I have a deeper understanding of the disease itself than ordinary people, I don't follow the crowd, I know how to use science and practice to help myself, and find a suitable method for my own recovery.
Ulcerative colitis is refractory for two reasons:
One is that the etiology is complex, and it may be related to many factors such as genetics, recurrent infections, stress, dietary lifestyle, autoimmunity, etc., which may aggravate the symptoms of enteritis or lead to recurrence of enteritis. My parents, grandparents and grandparents have never had this disease, ruling out the congenital genetic factors, since it is caused by nurture, we will definitely be able to defeat it, as long as we find the pathogenic principle of each factor, solve it, or avoid it, enteritis can be solved!
The second is the imbalance of intestinal microecology and changes in the structure of microflora. Our intestinal tract parasitizes more than 100 trillion bacteria, known bacteria as many as 1000 species, including beneficial bacteria, harmful bacteria, neutral bacteria, healthy people's intestinal beneficial bacteria are absolutely dominant, harmful bacteria and neutral bacteria are imprisoned; beneficial bacteria also build a protective layer on the surface of the intestinal mucosa, which is called "bacterial film barrier" in medicine, which plays a triple protective role of chemical barrier, biological barrier and immune barrier. Once you have enteritis, this healthy balance is disrupted, and the bad bacteria take over, the good bacteria take over, and the neutral bacteria also go bad, harming the intestines together. The reduction of beneficial bacteria leads to the disappearance of the bacterial membrane barrier, the intestinal mucosa is directly exposed to the intestine, and the inflammatory ulcer surface is engulfed by harmful microorganisms, stimulated by toxins and chemicals, and rubbed by feces every day.
The medical community has compared and analyzed the top six probiotics that are very beneficial to ulcerative colitis, namely: Lactobacillus reuteri, Lactobacillus casei, Bifidobacterium longum, Bifidobacterium youth, Lactobacillus acidophilus, and Lactobacillus paracasei. As long as we supplement these probiotics, or find more effective strains, we can restore the healthy balance of the intestinal microbiome and reconstruct and repair the bacterial membrane barrier, which will help the comprehensive recovery of ulcerative colitis.
Following the above two difficulties, I found the "five carriages" of ulcerative colitis recovery, and I feel very reasonable, and I have benefited so far, and my ulcerative colitis has been completely cured:
The first carriage: follow the doctor's instructions and receive systematic treatment in a regular tertiary hospital.
During the inflammatory phase of colitis, it must be treated with medication promptly. At this stage, the intestinal flora is seriously imbalanced, the beneficial bacteria prevail, the bacterial membrane barrier disappears, the harmful bacteria are rampant, the inflammatory reaction is strong, and the symptoms are severe. The fastest anti-inflammatory and sterilizing drugs are Western medicines, commonly used are mesalazine, norfloxacin, prednisone, infliximab, etc. If the inflammatory response is not strong, traditional Chinese medicine can also be used to anti-inflammatory and sterilize, commonly used are intestinal inflammation, spleen and intestinal pills, Gubenyi intestinal tablets, intestinal antidiarrheal pills, etc. Drugs are like airplane cannons, entering the colon position to bomb and destroy most of the harmful bacteria, quickly control symptoms, and avoid deterioration of the condition.
In the stable phase of colitis, the inflammation disappears, the symptoms are controlled, and in order to prevent the return of harmful bacteria, the drug must also be combined with treatment for a period of time until the ulcer surface of the intestinal mucosal inflammation is completely healed during colonoscopy. Even during the recovery period, the drug should be gradually reduced to stop according to the doctor's instructions, because the drug has a certain dependence, especially the strong dependence on Western medicine.
Some people are worried about the toxic side effects of drugs, refuse to treat Western medicine, or stop taking drugs at will are not allowed, there are many kinds of Western medicines, doctors can choose different drug treatment according to the patient's different physique, different conditions, the toxic and side effects of the drug are within the controllable range of the doctor's prescription, even if individual people have allergic reactions, doctors also have a way to deal with them.
The second carriage: adhere to the health management of the intestinal microecology of Huojun No. 1.
Whether it is Western medicine or traditional Chinese medicine, while treating enteritis, anti-inflammatory and sterilization, it will also mistakenly kill the necessary beneficial bacteria in the intestines, which is even worse for the microecological environment of intestinal flora imbalance, losing the protection of beneficial bacteria and bacterial film barriers. Therefore, probiotics should be supplemented from beginning to end of drug treatment for enteritis, including the recovery period and prevention period after drug withdrawal. Probiotics are like the People's Liberation Army, entering the colon position, killing harmful bacteria, not harming beneficial bacteria, restoring the healthy balance of intestinal flora, and reconstructing the bacterial membrane barrier that protects the intestinal mucosa, so that the cured enteritis is not easy to recur.
When the inflammation of the colon disappears and the damaged mucosa heals, the drug can be stopped and the recovery period of the disease begins. At this stage, the patient's painful symptoms basically disappear, and it is easy to be paralyzed and careless. However, the intestinal microecology is still in a state of imbalance, the bacterial membrane barrier has not been repaired, and without the control of drugs, harmful bacteria are easy to resurge, and probiotics should continue to be supplemented. Otherwise, you will fall into a vicious circle of effective medication and recurrence of discontinuation.
Even if the colitis has completely healed, the intestinal microbiome has returned to a healthy balance, and the bacterial membrane barrier has been repaired, it should not be taken lightly. Air pollution, water pollution, soil pollution, oil smoke, exhaust gas, food pollution, pesticide and fertilizer residues, electron radiation, infection, medication, disease, unhealthy diet and lifestyle, etc., will make the human body ingest or produce a large number of free radicals, excess free radicals will attack the normal immune cells of the human body, making it abnormal, and abnormal immune cells will attack the intestinal mucosal cells, resulting in colitis or recurrence. Free radicals are the source of all diseases, the culprits of immune diseases, aging, tumors, free radicals can also cause intestinal flora imbalance, we can not avoid, only to resist! Supplement some special functions of probiotics help to remove excess free radicals in the body, maintain the healthy balance of intestinal microecology. Therefore, after colitis is cured, probiotics should be supplemented for a long time or irregularly to prevent recurrence.
Probiotics I chose is Huojun No. 1, it is the only one I know on the market for ulcerative colitis Chinese invention patent formula probiotics, six expensive star strains, pure raw powder, 0 additives, 0 excipients, 0 dependence, the real content of each bag of six live bacteria is not less than 50 billion, whether it is with drug treatment, or the recovery of intestinal microecological health balance after discontinuation, or the prevention after healing, it has a good effect, my ulcerative colitis can recover from the root, Huojun No. 1 has contributed a lot.
The third carriage: adhere to mental and emotional health management.
The reason why my ulcerative colitis is getting better is closely related to my good management of mental and emotional health, first, I have a colonoscopy, there are no intestinal polyps, no malignant transformation, as long as active treatment, there is no need to worry about malignant transformation; The Het's extinction reaction of probiotics and so on, everything is temporary, as long as we adhere to the combination of systematic and standardized treatment and nourishment, I will definitely be able to recover; third, I took a year of sick leave, away from the noisy, nervous, stressful, and fatigue scenes and work in the hospital, and the pressure and fatigue have been released; fourth, I have a stable temperament, do not drill the horns, do not fear hardship, do not fear pain, and advocate the spirit of revolutionary optimism.
Modern neuroanatomical medicine has found that the gastrointestinal tract is a barometer of emotions, and the gastrointestinal tract has its own nervous system, which is affected by intestinal microorganisms, which is responsible for eating, digestion and absorption, peristalsis, and waste discharge, and connects the brain through the brain-nerve axis. Mental stimulation, mood swings, unhealthy mental activities, etc., will be transmitted to the gastrointestinal nervous system through the brain-nerve axis, causing gastrointestinal disorders, endocrine disorders, and immune system disorders, resulting in the production of a large number of free radicals in the body, attacking healthy cells, destroying the healthy balance of intestinal microecology, causing mucosal inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract, aggravating gastrointestinal clinical symptoms, and indigestion symptoms, etc., It is also a functional gastrointestinal disease, autoimmune diseases (including ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease), metabolic diseases (including fatty liver, pancreatitis, diarrhea, etc.) and one of the important predisposing factors for malignant tumors of the digestive tract.
Adhering to the management of mental and emotional health requires us to face up to the disease, not to be nervous, not to be anxious, not to be irritable, not to be angry, not to be depressed, not to doubt, not to compare, not to be in a hurry, through self-encouragement, deep breathing, abdominal breathing, meditation, listening to music, appropriate exercise, chatting, playing chess, dancing, walking, diverting attention, etc., adjust the mentality, control emotions, and firmly believe that our disease will be recovered!
The fourth carriage: adhere to the healthy management of dietary structure.
A large number of food additives and unhealthy dietary structure will not only lead to the production of more free radicals in the body, but also cause intestinal flora imbalance, affect gastrointestinal function, and induce colitis. Ulcerative colitis is strictly managed on a diet:
(1) Mainly warm, avoid eating raw and cold food, avoid irritating the intestinal mucosa and aggravating the symptoms. If you want to eat fruit, it is advisable to eat it warm.
(2) Mainly liquid food, such as porridge, millet porridge, avoid greasy and indigestible food, increase the burden on the stomach.
(3) The diet should be as light as possible, no alcohol, no strong tea, no coffee, avoid spicy and irritating food, aggravate congestion and inflammation, and poor discharge.
(4) Avoid gas-producing foods, which cause abdominal pain, bloating, bowel sounds and other discomforts.
(5) Avoid rough food, which may stimulate gastrointestinal peristalsis and increase the digestive burden of the intestines.
(6) Avoid seafood to avoid some foreign proteins that are easy to cause allergies, aggravate inflammatory reactions, or cause bleeding.
(7) Avoid foods that promote excretion and lubricate the intestines, as well as foods containing lactose.
(8) It is forbidden to eat overnight food, stale or out-of-season food, too salty food and pickled products.
(9) Avoid overeating, which will cause gastrointestinal disorders.
I usually pay great attention to a healthy diet, and my working meals are also very nutritious and healthy, but after I got this disease, I paid more attention to the healthy management of my diet, even if the inflammation disappeared and the medicine was stopped, I still paid attention to a healthy diet, which is one of the main reasons why my colitis does not recur after healing.
Troika 5: Adhere to lifestyle health management.
Ulcerative colitis is related to, or the result of, a combination of microbiota factors, immune factors, environmental factors, psychiatric factors, genetic factors, and infectious factors, and the life and health management of ulcerative colitis is to reduce the possibility of these factors. We must prohibit or avoid any lifestyle that leads to dysbiosis, decreased immunity, depressed mood, disease infection, and excessive free radicals. Healthy lifestyle management includes:
(1) Eat a regular and healthy diet, eat three meals regularly and quantitatively, and do not overeat.
(2) Regular work and rest time, do not stay up late, do not work, combine work and rest, go to bed early and get up early with lunch break, and maintain sufficient sleep.
(3) Exercise properly, sit for a long time, stand for a short time, do not do strenuous exercise, maintain physical strength, you can walk or jog, Tai Chi or yoga, and rest in bed during the bleeding period.
(4) Keep the abdomen warm, prevent cold, prevent air conditioning in summer, and prevent body cold in winter.
(5) Be peaceful, honest and friendly, do more things that make you happy, and keep smiling. For example: chatting, reading books, planting flowers, or participating in some relaxing public welfare activities.
I was in June last year with Huojun No. 1 intestine nourishment, and went to the hospital for a re-examination in October, the colonoscopy results showed that the whole colon was smooth, and the inflammatory ulcer surface was completely healed, and the western medicine was gradually reduced in November, and the drug was completely stopped last month, and only insisted on the last four troikas, and there were no signs of recurrence.
At the end of the article, I would like to talk about my personal experience:
First, these five troikas are very scientific, consistent with the pathogenesis and rehabilitation premise of ulcerative colitis, and also conform to the law of chronic diseases of "three points of treatment, seven points of nourishment", we must believe in doctors, drug treatment is essential, but only account for three points, equivalent to the first carriage; we should also believe in ourselves, their own intestinal microecology, psychological emotion, dietary structure, lifestyle and other aspects of health management is more important, accounting for seven points, equivalent to the second, third, fourth, fifth troika.
Second, probiotics I recommend Huojun No. 1, it's not that I took the benefits of Huojun No. 1, I'm the same as everyone, I also participated in Jingdong 618 in Jingdong Huojun No. 1 flagship store to participate in Jingdong 618, double 11 activities to buy nine boxes of thanksgiving, the day before yesterday to take advantage of the Jingdong New Year's Festival promotion, I bought nine more boxes of thanksgiving, I spent the same amount of money as everyone, especially affordable.
Why should I recommend Vivo One Probiotic?
Reason 1, Huojun No. 1 is the only one I found on the market for ulcerative colitis Chinese invention patent formula raw powder probiotics, six expensive star strains (Lactobacillus reuteri JYLB-291, Lactobacillus casei L.Casei21, Bifidobacterium longum JBLC-141, Bifidobacterium juvenile BBF-06, Lactobacillus acidophilus JYLA-191, Lactobacillus paracasei JLPF-17) have strong activity, acid, oxygen and room temperature resistance, and the survival rate, colonization rate, The reproduction rate has reached more than 95%, and a large number of relevant medical literature has recorded that clinical trial reports have confirmed that these six probiotics have good health effects on ulcerative colitis.
Reason 2, Huojun No. 1 patented strain Lactobacillus reuteri JYLB-291 won the Chinese invention patent number ZL 2021 1 1566079.0 for "improving ulcerative colitis", I have verified that the invention patent is true and effective in the Patent Office of the State Intellectual Property Office, and the total effective rate can reach 95.7% for ulcerative colitis caused by fecal mucosal pus and blood, abdominal pain, increased stool frequency, loose stool, etc., and the patent details announced the results of the experimental group:
Reason 3, Huojun No. 1 patented strain Lactobacillus casei L.Casei2 "treatment of diarrhea" won the China invention patent No. ZL 2021 1 0242478.5, I have verified the invention patent in the State Intellectual Property Office and Patent Office is true and effective, for abdominal pain, diarrhea, frequent bowel movements, and lukewarm limbs caused by colitis, the total effective rate is as high as 92% in 30 days, and the patent details have announced the results of the control test:
Reason 4: Huojun No. 1 patented strain Bifidobacterium longum JBLC-141 "scavenging human free radicals" won the China Invention Patent No. ZL 2021 1 0227019.X, and I have verified the authenticity and validity of the invention patent in the Patent Office of the State Intellectual Property Office.
Reason 5: Huojun No. 1 patented strain Lactobacillus acidophilus JYLA-191 "lowers blood cholesterol content" won the China Invention Patent No. ZL 2021 1 0237827.4, which is very beneficial to me with high blood lipids and blood pressure. Huojun No. 1 patented strain Lactobacillus paracasei JLPF-176 has obtained the Chinese invention patent number ZL 2021 1 0066239.9 for "inhibiting Helicobacter pylori infection", which is great news for nearly 700 million people infected with Helicobacter pylori in mainland China.
Reason 6, Huojun No. 1 is the only raw powder probiotic on the market that I found, except for six kinds of probiotics and a prebiotic, there are no other ingredients, no food additives, no allergic excipients, and long-term food safety is guaranteed. Although the original powder probiotics are expensive, they are safe to eat, and the real content of live bacteria is high, with no less than 50 billion live bacteria per bag, and the effect is faster, stronger and longer-lasting.
Reason seven, I have checked the past and present life of Huojun No. 1, it originated from Wang's bifidobacterium in 2005, upgraded to the second generation of live bacteria No. 1 in 2016, and upgraded to the third generation of Huojun No. 1 in 2023. Filial piety is priceless and ingenuity is commendable.
3. Probiotics regulate the stomach and intestines, first of all, we must fight against harmful bacteria, and we must go through a period of competition, a period of stalemate, a period of reversal, Advantage period, in order to give full play to the health effect of probiotics, especially the patent effect, generally takes 3 to 6 months, must not eat a month to have a little effect, just see the good that you receive; can not because you eat half a month to feel that the effect is not obvious, you will give up the chance of recovery; there are a very small number of people who eat probiotics may also occur Herce's extinction reaction, the symptoms feel aggravated, in fact, it is a kind of improvement reaction, not only should not give up, but should be cherished.
Fourth, I am writing this article in the hope that through my experience, I can help more patients who are suffering from the pain of colitis.
