Intestinal dysbiosis is characterized by an imbalance of the intestinal bacterial flora that decreases the absorption capacity of nutrients and vitamins, causing symptoms such as:
- Flatulence;
- Motion sickness;
- Abdominal discomfort;
- Diarrhea;
- Constipation;
- Hair loss and weakening of the nails;
- Headaches;
- Repeated candidiasis;
- Irritability and fatigue.
Dysbiosis can be caused by taking medications, such as antibiotics or laxatives, or using alcohol excessively. In addition, a diet low in fiber and rich in sweets and processed foods can also favor the onset of dysbiosis.
Treatment of intestinal dysbiosis
The treatment of intestinal dysbiosis can be done by a nutritionist by increasing the intake of probiotics and fiber-rich foods that help restore the absorption of nutrients, vitamins and, consequently, of the intestinal flora.
The treatment of dysbiosis is very important, because when it is not done, the bad bacteria in the intestine can get into the blood and cause an infection throughout the body, which can be fatal.
