The intestines are the organ whose importance has not been fully understood until now and which perhaps determines our health the most. It is accepted that the microorganisms covering the intestines weigh up to 2 kg in total and that it is an important organ where many metabolic events occur. Microorganisms that pass to us from birth, first through our mother's birth canal and then from our environment, form our intestinal flora. After that, they remain effective throughout our lives. The better the quality of the microbiota formed at birth, the stronger our immune system will be. Nutritional disorders, diseases we have and the medications we use, stress, not exercising regularly, living unhealthy lives affect our intestinal microbiota (the living environment of the creatures in the intestines), disrupting our immunity and causing toxins to easily enter the body, causing us to lose our health. There is a balance between these microorganisms. Disruption of this balance between living things called good or bad microbes; It has some consequences in the intestine and therefore in the whole body. The bad germ is usually a fungus called Candida Albicans. This fungus feeds on sugar and multiplies. It suppresses good bacteria and, over time, damages the intestines and makes them permeable. In healthy people, harmful substances that can never pass through the intestinal wall pass into the blood and cause many diseases. Sometimes rheumatism, sometimes depression, sometimes recovery problems are due to this evil we do to our body. More exaggerated bloating after a meal may indicate a disrupted intestinal microbiota. So what should be done in this situation? First of all, it is necessary to stop causing harm and focus on the real problem. Later, special diets, probiotic and prebiotic supplements can be arranged as supportive treatment. However, the treatment method is different for each patient. Sometimes restricting prebiotics may be appropriate. Sometimes bowel cleansing or fecal transplantation may be required. Appropriate treatment should be carried out and followed under the control of the relevant physician and dietician.
