Gastro-intestinal Issues

1. Gastritis

Gastritis is the inflammation of the stomach lining, often caused by infections, excessive alcohol use, or stress. Naturopathy focuses on balancing stomach acidity and reducing inflammation using herbal remedies such as chamomile and slippery elm. A diet rich in anti-inflammatory foods and the use of probiotics can also help restore a healthy digestive system and prevent further flare-ups.

2. Hypertension (High Blood Pressure)

Hypertension, or high blood pressure, is a serious condition that can lead to heart disease, stroke, and kidney damage if left untreated. Naturopathic treatment focuses on reducing stress, improving circulation, and addressing the root causes of hypertension. Herbs like hawthorn and garlic, alongside lifestyle changes such as reducing salt intake, increasing physical activity, and managing stress, can help maintain healthy blood pressure levels.

3. Chronic Constipation

Chronic constipation can lead to discomfort, bloating, and digestive issues. Naturopathy addresses this by promoting a high-fiber diet, staying hydrated, and using herbs such as aloe vera and senna for gentle bowel stimulation. Probiotics and digestive enzymes may also be recommended to improve gut health and regularity, ensuring the digestive system functions optimally.

4. Ulcers (Peptic Ulcers)

Peptic ulcers are soring that form on the stomach or duodenal lining, often caused by infections or overuse of painkillers. Naturopathic treatment focuses on healing the gut lining and reducing acid levels. Licorice root, slippery elm, and aloe vera are commonly used to soothe irritation and promote healing. A nutrient-rich diet that avoids spicy or acidic foods and an emphasis on stress management can also aid in the healing process.
