Gastrointestinal Disease

Gastrointestinal disease is a common and frequently-occurring disease, with a total incidence of about 20% of the population. The older the age, the higher the incidence, especially in middle-aged and elderly people over 50 years old, and men are higher than women. The gastrointestinal disease has historically been regarded as a difficult disease by doctors, it is not a specific disease. First of all, it must be diagnosed, once you get the disease, it should be treated in time and long-term medication to control or cure the disease, otherwise, it will recur and easily develop into tumors. The fundamental cause of the gastrointestinal disease is the imbalance between the protective mechanism and the injury mechanism of the body. Traditional medicine kills not only harmful bacteria, but also necessary beneficial bacteria. Although the symptoms are relieved and inflammation is eliminated, the reduction of beneficial bacteria reduces gastrointestinal immunity, which makes it easy to re-infect once the drug is stopped. There are many factors for gastrointestinal disease, including genetics, environment, diet, drugs, bacterial infections, smoking and excessive alcoholism.
