Guest guest Posted September 21, 2000 Report Share Posted September 21, 2000 Hi Jana, As soon as I saw that article on Giardia I thought about you I thought it was interesting that they mentioned joint pain, too. ~Georgina JANABECKER@... wrote: > Thanks for this article.

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2006 Report Share Posted February 5, 2006 > cow colostrum and coconut oil will heal the intestines.Also get a good > probiotic . > IN NC When the intestines have been irritated by a chronic unwanted bacterial fluorish, called bowel dysbiosis (also dysbacteriosis) the correct cure is to attend to the deficiency that caused the dysbiosis. This has little to do with giardia, which is a parasite, not a situation of dysbacteriosis. The deficiency is of inulin; the North American diet contains about 2.6 grams of inulin on average, but about 12 grams has been identified as optimal. Old European cultures had 20-30 grams, and ancient Australian aboriginal culture contained 200-300 grams of inulin. Anyway, the shortfall leads to a incorrect bacterial ecology with all its ramifications such as diarrhea, bowel cancer and Crohn's disease risk. A probiotic does nothing for giardia, and very little to restore gut ecology. It makes a starter culture but it does not make the culture active in the bowel; only their food, indigestible fiber such as inulin, does that. Nor does it populate even the fecal matter adequately; a probiotic capsule only contains enough pobiotic to populate a couple of grams or so of fecal matter out of 1000 grams or more in 3 or 4 feet of bowel alone, let alone the rest of the intestine. Obviously, and this is verified by doing the math, you could need upwards of 200 capsules of probiotic daily to replace the missing organisms, and at that you wouldn't hit the diversity. Feeding your existing starter culture is better, as the organisms can then actively compete for colony sites in the stool and importantly, on the bowel, lining. I have about a week of reading on the subject of bowel ecology posted to my website: http://members.shaw.ca/duncancrow/inulin_prebiotic_probiotic.html Duncan Crow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
