At first this is bad news. Unfortunately, there is no effective and safe way to improve pancreatic function in the treatment of chronic pancreatitis. Unfortunately, it is difficult to verify chronic pancreatitis at an early stage using routine tests. Chronic pancreatitis is often diagnosed when only 10% of pancreatic function remains, and treatment approaches are very narrow.
I am sorry that now there is not much attention to the pancreas compared to hollow digestive chambers, such as the stomach and large intestine. It is simply impossible to have a healthy lifestyle without the normal function of the pancreas. The pancreas is an important organ with many tasks in a person. Moreover, the pancreas is only one organ in the human body that can harm itself.
Even one attack of pain in the upper left quadrant, with nausea, vomiting, gas, belching, fever, diarrhea, constipation, as a rule, after drinking heavy, fatty foods, could be the first alarm signal of the onset of chronic pancreatitis.
Some people with acute pancreatitis get into the ER. Happy enough to get through this life-threatening condition, they are discharged from the hospital with standard advice: "Do not drink alcohol, do not eat fatty and spicy foods, and do not smoke."
A happy person believes that everything is over, and he / she supports an unhealthy lifestyle, which causes full-blown chronic pancreatitis in 8-15 years.
What speeds up this process? By avoiding this, you can save years of your life.
• Unhealthy eating habits
• Food, processed, without food products with natural digestive enzymes
• Consumption of toxic, acid-forming products
• Toxic substances such as alcohol, smoking, drugs, certain drugs, environmental toxins
• aggressive acid bile that causes dysfunction of Oddi's Sphincter, gall sludge, gallbladder stones
• Overweight problem, fatty liver and fatty pancreas, diabetes
• Pancreatic duct blockage due to sphincter of Oddi dysfunction, gallbladder stones
• Parasites in the bile ducts
• intestinal dysbiosis, such as SIBO, Candida-yeast growth
• Stress and anxiety
• Hormonal imbalance, such as hypothyroidism, menopause, diabetes
• Lack of minerals, trace elements, vitamins and bicarbonates
• Surgeries such as gallbladder removal, swelling, pancreatic trauma, etc.
• Whole body blood circulation
You may ask what kind of acidity it is. I have never heard of that. You're right.
Not too many people understand that the main cause of chronic pancreatitis is the acidity of the whole organism - chronic metabolic acidosis. I focused on this topic in my e-books and medical and public articles on the Internet.
Of the many medical documents, clinical and experimental data, as well as my decades of experience with acute and chronic pancreatitis, I honestly believe that acidity kills the pancreas. To simplify the pancreas and liver are alkaline digestive glands. They produce alkaline pancreatic juice and bile. They take alkaline substances from the blood. If a person consumes too much acid radicals from food and the environment, or many lactic acids are obtained by a human cell or by fermentation of yeast, acid changes occur in the blood. Human blood has a constant, slightly alkaline pH of 7.4. Even small acid changes in blood pH to 7.0 close the regular work of vital organs such as the heart, lungs, brain and life.
Therefore, in the case of all the acidity, in order to maintain a constant pH of 7.4 and keep the vital organs functioning, the human body does this at the price of “less important” organs such as the liver and pancreas. The medical term for the whole acid of the body is metabolic acidosis. Currently, chronic metabolic acidosis is observed worldwide due to acidic lifestyle, as are digestive disorders.
Let's see what happens in the pancreas due to metabolic acidosis. This causes premature activation of pancreatic enzymes in the pancreas, which leads to self-destruction, inflammation, pancreatitis. According to medical research, people with chronic pancreatitis have an acidic environment in the duodenum. In turn, the acidity in the duodenum stops the activity of pancreatic lipase, therefore, the digestion of fat ends. Metabolic acidosis reduces the antibacterial action of pancreatic juice, causing a bacterial overgrowth of SIBO-small intestine.
The acidity of the whole body is bad for bile, which leads to the deposition of very aggressive bile acids, which irritate the gallbladder, bile ducts and the sphincter of Oddi, leading to spasms, inflammation and the formation of gallstones.
Now this is great news. If we recognize the culprit of chronic pancreatitis - the acidity of the whole organism, we know a healthy way to support the pancreas. Alkalinization for pancreatic health is an integral part of the treatment of chronic pancreatitis. This can be done by providing the body with natural minerals, trace elements and bicarbonate. There are three healthy ways, such as an alkaline diet, taking cellular magnesium-potassium, and drinking healing mineral water.
Information about the alkaline diet and the addition of magnesium and potassium can be obtained on the Internet and popular articles. With regard to the use of healing mineral water for the health of the pancreas, in the US there is little information. On the contrary, many Europeans spend healthy holidays in mineral resorts. This is a long healing in Europe. For example, European doctors sent their patients with digestive disorders to drink thermal water from Karlovy Vary from the 16th century. Two centuries later, doctors from Europe recommend home treatment with drinking mineral water made from real thermal salt in Karlovy Vary.
Many articles and books support the beneficial medical use of mineral water from Karlovy Vary in case of chronic pancreatitis to improve digestion, reduce pain and cramps, and treat constipation, diarrhea and heartburn. Drinking healing mineral water can be combined with any conventional or alternative procedures.
