Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a violation in the proper functioning of the digestive system, during which various symptoms occur: diarrhea, flatulence, constipation.

In this case, there are no structural changes in the intestine. Doctors diagnose irritable bowel syndrome if a person has specific symptoms for at least three days a month for six months.

Irritable Bowel Syndrome Causes

There are no exact reasons for the appearance of irritable bowel syndrome, everything is individual, each person can have its own reasons.

1. Improper diet, the use of unhealthy foods. When a person irregularly eats, he eats a lot of fried, smoked and fatty foods. Eats a lot of snacks, soda and chocolate. Therefore, the gastrointestinal tract begins to work incorrectly.
2. Bowel motility can be slowed down with constipation or accelerated with diarrhea.
3. Genetic factors. Irritable bowel syndrome can be inherited.
4. SCR sometimes occurs with excessive growth of bacteria. A large number of bacteria fill the small intestine and this can cause dysbiosis, flatulence and other symptoms.
5. Also, various stresses, disorders of the nervous system and emotional disharmony can become the cause of SLE.
6. Some people have an increased bowel sensitivity. Therefore, when filling it with gas or food, discomfort may occur.
7. Taking some medications.
8. Violations in the hormonal system of the body.

Irritable Bowel Syndrome: Symptoms and Treatment

Irritable bowel syndrome in children and adults may resemble symptoms of various disorders in the functioning of the intestines.

Among the common signs, the following symptoms can be distinguished:

• Swelling, bloating and discomfort can occur, which decrease after a person goes to the toilet.
• Diarrhea and constipation may alternate.
• There is a large amount of gas in the intestines (flatulence).
• After eating, symptoms of discomfort may intensify.
• Together with feces, mucus can be released.
• After you go to the toilet, the intestines may feel full or that it is only half empty.

If a person begins to manifest symptoms already in old age, the temperature rises, if the signs progress, weight decreases and so on. The cause of intestinal dysfunction may not be TFR.

Pregnant Irritable Bowel Syndrome

It is believed that TFR in pregnant women is manifested by mild symptoms, while there are no structural changes in the intestine, but only small changes in its work.

The following factors affect the appearance of symptoms of SLE in pregnant women:

• Hormonal changes
• Maybe something will change in the diet.
• Due to the growing fetus, bowel loops can mix. Pressure can be applied to the nerve fibers and the intestines begin to respond differently.
• Immunity may weaken.
• A doctor may prescribe dietary supplements and drugs for pregnant women that affect the intestines.

A doctor can treat SCR in pregnant women, he will prescribe drugs that will be safe for the patient. Pregnant women are recommended walking in the air, proper nutrition and eating food that is digested. Pregnant women need to be calm so that their mood remains positive.

Irritable Bowel Syndrome - Diagnosis

Irritable bowel syndrome is diagnosed using special tests and techniques by a professional doctor.

Assign studies:

• A general blood test, in which they look at the number of red blood cells and white blood cells in the body. A biochemical blood test, as well as a blood test for celiac disease.
• An analysis of feces is carried out, their structure is studied.
• Ultrasound of the abdominal cavity.
• In order to examine the rectum and large intestine as a whole, the doctor conducts a colonoscopy, and to study the rectum and sigmoid colon, a sigmoidoscopy.
• A biopsy is sometimes prescribed as a diagnostic.

IBS with diarrhea

• A medicine such as Smecta helps in the treatment of diarrhea.
• Different sorbents are used in the treatment: Enterosgel, Prolifepan and Polysorb.
• For diarrhea, drugs are prescribed that are taken two to three times a day before eating food: Defenoxylate, Imodium, and Loperamide.

4. Enterosorbents: Enterosgel and Filtrum.
5. Probiotics: Lactulose and Hilak Forte.

Treatment of IBS with antidepressants

Since one of the main causes of irritable bowel syndrome is stress and the inharmonious functioning of the nervous system, antidepressants are often prescribed by the doctor as a treatment.

They normalize the correct supply of nerve impulses from the brain to the intestine, and it begins to work correctly. Good options for antidepressants, which are taken after consulting a doctor: "Befol", "Fenelzin", "Trimipramin" and so on.

Diet for irritable bowel syndrome

Probiotics help people in the treatment of IBS. They are useful nutritional supplements in which there are special bacteria that have a beneficial effect on intestinal function and normalize digestion. Before taking them, carefully read the instructions and follow all the recommendations written in it.

Irritable bowel syndrome in children also requires compliance with the diet and general principles and rules of nutrition. A variety of crackers and snacks should be excluded from the child’s diet. Children should not eat smoked dishes, food with marinades and whole milk. If constipation occurs, bran, prunes, honey, dried apricots and figs are added to soups and cereals. With diarrhea, they consume more food when warm, eat rice, homemade crackers, weak broths and apples. All recommendations apply to symptoms of IBS in adults.

Fiber for irritable bowel syndrome

  One of the important therapeutic products for IBS is fiber, which patients need to consume in their daily diet. There are two types of fiber: soluble and insoluble fiber.

Products with soluble fiber: barley, oats, rye, fruits (bananas, apples and so on) and various root crops (carrots, potatoes and so on).

Products with insoluble fiber: cereals (except rye, oats and barley), whole grain bread, bran, nuts and seeds.

If with IBS, there are symptoms of constipation, then it is recommended to increase the number of foods that have soluble fiber. It is also worth drinking more water.

Irritable bowel syndrome in children

IBS in children occurs for the same reasons as in adults. These include: unbalanced nutrition, malfunctioning of the central nervous and autonomic system, and so on.

In children, the specific characteristics of the body, which complicate the diagnosis of IBS:

• In the children's body there is still not the whole complex of digestive enzymes, so not all products can be properly digested.
• It is difficult for children to control the muscles of the intestines.
• High sensitivity to various intestinal infections.
• They often have food allergies.
• Feces are formed rapidly.
• Babies often have fermentation in the intestines and gases accumulate.
• Fats are not digested so well, because bile is not yet produced so intensively.

Irritable bowel syndrome in infants often happens if they are transferred to artificial nutrition for various reasons.

In order to effectively cure irritable bowel syndrome in children, you need to adhere to a proper diet, make sure that the child is always calm and in a good mood. Also, the doctor can supplement the treatment with special medications that will need to be taken. They also recommend visiting a child psychologist and moving more.

The best way to maintain the body's water balance is pure drinking and non-carbonated mineral water. In that case, if simple drinking water helps quench your thirst, mineral water will also make up for the loss of vital salts and trace elements. Pay attention to the label. Thus, if the location, number of the well and its depth are indicated on it, it is really natural mineral water. The deeper the well, the greater the degree of mineralization

In the event that there is no information about the well, most likely in such a bottle is purified drinking water, which is artificially mineralized, from which there is neither harm nor special benefit.

Strictly speaking, mineral waters cannot be classified as "Soft Drinks." In fact, these are medicinal products with a different spectrum of action. There are indications and contraindications for their use. The exception is table or drinking mineral water, which can be consumed by almost everyone quite often.

Natural mineral water is divided into three types:

1. canteen is ordinary drinking water with a natural salt content of 1 gram per liter ;.
2. medicinal - table water contains from 1, 5 to 7 g / liter of mineral salts; such waters are divided into two categories: the first - does not have a pronounced therapeutic effect, the second - on the contrary. You need to drink such water within reasonable limits - no more than 0.5-1 liters per day.
3. therapeutic - the most saturated salt water. This category includes mineral waters with mineralization - more than 10 grams per liter, or water with a high content of active trace elements, such as arsenic or boron, it should be drunk strictly on the recommendation of a doctor.

The dean of the therapeutic faculty of the Belarusian Medical Academy of Postgraduate Education Marina Viktorovna Shtonda and candidate of medical sciences, associate professor, Zhanna Leonidovna Sukhikh.

Everyone needs to drink mineral water under medical supervision, especially for those who have cardiovascular diseases accompanied by edema, impaired renal excretory function. Who has problems with the digestive system - an unreasonable intake can only worsen the condition, especially in the stage of exacerbation of the disease. Healthy people should remember: for therapeutic and preventive purposes, mineral water does not make sense to drink longer than 2-3 weeks. After that, its effectiveness decreases. After 3-6 months, the course can be repeated. It is very useful to change the type of water from time to time. The program for a healthy person should be this: 2-3 different courses per year for 3-4 weeks. By the way, water acts best on a healthy body - strengthens the endocrine system of the gastrointestinal tract, restores strength, activates the immune system ....

What is the benefit of mineral water?
- This natural drink is a complex solution, its components - ions, colloidal particles, dissolved gases normalize metabolic processes in organs and tissues. Found: mineral water is able to influence the restoration of liver function, improve carbohydrate and lipid metabolism, stimulate the production of bile. Depending on the components, mineral water can have a diuretic or laxative effect. Also, various mineral waters help in the treatment of chronic gastritis with normal, increased and decreased secret function of the stomach, chronic colitis and enterocolitis, biliary tract, metabolic diseases (diabetes, gout, obesity.

What gives the gas composition of the mineral water?
- Carbon dioxide stabilizes the chemical composition of water, actively affects the metabolic processes in the body, and also makes the water taste good. Natural carbon dioxide, bubbling in mineral water, creates a feeling of fast filling of the stomach, which makes the organs of gastric secretion work intensively. Therefore, highly carbonated water is recommended for an atonic stomach (for example, for diabetics. People with peptic ulcer disease, it is better to drink non-carbonated mineral water. Practically healthy people should consume medium-mineralized and medium-carbonated water.

How to drink mineral water - before, after, with food?
- If we want to stimulate the function of the stomach and increase the secretion of gastric juice, water should be drunk 15-20 minutes before a meal. If, on the contrary, it is necessary to lower the secretion of gastric juice and act on the duodenum, water is consumed an hour and a half before eating.

Mineral waters are good during fasting days ....
- Mineral water can be a component of fasting days. However, we must remember: on such days, you need to drink water an hour or a half before eating, then it will move from the stomach to the duodenum and begin to inhibit the secretion of gastric juice. If you do this 15-20 minutes before eating, we only provoke the work of the stomach. But why do this if there is a minimum of food? In general, instead of mineral water, it is better to drink a rosehip broth - this is a more acceptable option for diets and fasting days. But if you already use mineral water, it is better to still water.

What mineral water to take to normalize the bowel?
- Laxative effect is possessed by sulfate, chloride and hydrocarbonate - sulfate waters, as well as those which contain magnesium. You can drink a glass of some water 40-60 minutes before eating 3 times a day. Before use, be sure to warm the water to 40-45 degrees.

When there are gallstones.
- Accept mineral waters that have a choleretic effect (Essentuki 4, 17, naphtha, etc.) In this case, it is contraindicated!

I have diabetes.
- People with a diagnosis of Diabetes experience a constant feeling of thirst, drink a lot and excrete a large amount of urine. They definitely need to recover the lost fluid. Patients with diabetes are recommended to drink mineral water 3 times a day: before breakfast, lunch and dinner 45-60 minutes before eating. It is worth giving preference to waters with a slightly alkaline reaction.

With liver diseases, mineral water assistant?
- There are indications for the intake of mineral water for liver diseases (viral hepatitis, fatty hepatosis, etc.. Drink it 3 times a day, be sure to warm it up (40-45 degrees. The volume must be constantly increased to 1.5-2 glasses per reception: The mineral water itself needs to be selected depending on the initial secretory function of the stomach, however, all this is outside the exacerbation of chronic hepatitis.

Is obesity a diagnosis?
- Sure. It is recommended to use 150-200 ml of mineral water at room temperature 3 times a day 45-60 minutes before meals, after releasing all carbon dioxide from the bottle. The results of many studies have shown: the use of low mineralization waters (bicarbonate - sulfate - chloride - sodium - potassium - calcium composition) in the complex treatment of obesity can improve the carbohydrate, lipid and water - mineral metabolism (moreover, slightly reduce your appetite. However, in any case, your Mom should consult a doctor - nutritionist.

What waters have a diuretic property?
- Mostly those that have low mineralization and contain calcium ions.

Before drinking water, you should open the bottle so that the gas escapes ....
- It all depends on the state of secretory activity of the gastric mucosa. Only if the acidity is lowered, you can drink water with gas, because, getting into the stomach, it improves blood circulation of the mucous membrane, dilates blood vessels, stimulates the production of gastric juice. In the event that the acidity of the gastric juice is increased, the gas is removed.

Are mineral waters used in the treatment of gynecological diseases?
- Mineral waters, which have an acid reaction, act on the skin and mucous membranes in such a way that they reduce the intensity of inflammatory processes. Therefore, they are used for gynecological irrigation in inflammatory diseases of the pelvic organs.
Hydrocarbonate water helps to thin and remove pathological mucus from the mucous membrane of the stomach, urinary and respiratory tract, while reducing inflammation; uric acid excretion. The intake of these waters stimulates carbohydrate metabolism, which is successfully used in the treatment of patients with diabetes mellitus. Hydrocarbonate water is recommended in the treatment of chronic gastritis with increased secretory function, peptic ulcer, chronic colitis and pancreatitis, cystitis, diabetes of various etiologies.

Reception of sulfate water enhances the intestinal motor (motor) function, improves blood flow in the liver, has a laxative effect, helps eliminate the inflammatory process in the biliary tract, and prevents stone formation. Sulphate water reduces cholesterol, normalizes the concentration of free fatty acids. They are used in the treatment of chronic diseases of the liver and biliary tract, metabolic diseases (diabetes, obesity), chronic constipation.

Chloride waters have a choleretic effect, stimulate the secretion of digestive glands. Chloride waters are most effective for treating diseases of the digestive system with decreased secretory function of the stomach (gastritis, colitis, cholecystitis.

Hydrocarbonate - chloride water is prescribed for the treatment of chronic gastritis with reduced, normal and increased secretion of the stomach.

Sulphate - chloride waters have a beneficial effect in diseases of the stomach with reduced secretion and simultaneous damage to the liver and biliary tract, with bowel diseases that occur with constipation.

Hydrocarbonate - sulfate waters have an inhibitory effect on gastric secretion and cause relaxation. They are used for diseases of the stomach with increased secretory function and concomitant damage to the liver and intestines. It is useful for inflammatory processes in the genitourinary system.

Silicon waters have a beneficial effect on the health of older people, especially those suffering from diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, diabetes and metabolic disorders. Also indicated for skin diseases. They have an anti-inflammatory effect, enhance the antitoxic function of the liver.

Hydrogen sulfide waters play an important role in the process of protein metabolism. Used in the treatment of diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, liver, diseases of the endocrine system.

Radon waters in the treatment of atherosclerosis are good. In addition, they contribute to the normalization of thyroid function, enhance the secretory and motor functions of the stomach. They are used as an addition to the treatment of dystrophic diseases of the joints, diseases of the peripheral nervous system with the elimination of pain. The analgesic effect of radon water depends on the time of use. So, taken with food or after, this water has a longer analgesic effect than drunk on an empty stomach. Ferrous mineral waters stimulate the formation of blood, and therefore it is useful to take them with anemia.

High-quality drinking water is the main guarantee of health. It is currently popular to drink purified bottled water. What is the difference between mineral and ordinary drinking water. Mineral water is extracted from drilled wells, underground and natural sources, which eliminates the possibility of any pollution or impact on its chemical properties. Mineral water in its useful properties significantly surpasses ordinary drinking water, contains a whole complex of micro and macro elements, dissolved salts.

The healing properties of mineral water have been known since ancient Greece. Residents of Europe to this day prefer to drink mostly water from sources. If a European drinks an average of about 110 liters of mineral water per year, then we are 2 times less.

The advantages of mineral water over ordinary

There are a number of advantages of mineral water:

Increases appetite;

Strengthens tooth enamel;

Improves bowel function;

Increases vitality;

Reduces appetite;

Cleanses the body of harmful bacteria;

Does not contain chlorine;

Improves metabolism;

Improves the taste of coffee and tea.

The use of mineral water

Mineral water is a real remedy that can be taken not only inside but also externally for:

Preparation of bathtubs and treatment pools;

Inhalation;

Mouthwash;

Upper respiratory tract treatment;

Treatment of diseases of the nasopharynx;

Genital lavage;

According to international standards, mineral water must:

Get only from registered sources;

Be natural clean;

To get a method that does not change its natural properties;

Obtained with filters only if necessary to remove unwanted substances and solids;

Obtained from a clean, natural source and bottled no further than 50 meters from it.

If the source of mineral water production is rich in carbon dioxide, it should be removed, as it adversely affects the properties of water.

Drinking water

• Drinking water

Drinking water is water suitable for use inside, meeting established quality standards. In case of water mismatch, it is cleaned and disinfected. It implies the release of water from suspended particles, turbidity, from unusual colors, odors and flavors, from excessive salts and gases. Water purification and disinfection is carried out by various means; they are used from a porous substance (coal, calcined clay); chlorine and the like

The most suitable for drinking water, as a rule, are deep groundwater (artesian, inter-layer). Their difference is transparency, the absence of organisms, a constant temperature. Almost all natural water requires cleaning and disinfection.

If you make a list of things necessary for life, then water, of course, will head it. Without it, none of the known life forms is completely impossible. The benefit of drinking water is that in the human body it performs the following most important functions:

• preserves the structure and functions of DNA,
• delivers oxygen to cells,
• important for the production of proteins involved in tissue growth and repair,
• allows proteins to rearrange the structure of cells,
• plays the role of an intermediary in the delivery of nutrients,
• protects bones and joints
• moisturizes joints
• provides a means to remove toxins from the body,
• allows you to maintain the electrical conductivity of cells in normal
• regulates body temperature
• supplies cells with water,
• supports the immune system
• allows you to maintain normal basic metabolic rate,
• plays the role of a conductor in the removal of free radicals from the body,
• an important component of digestive juices.

In order to feel good, a person should only use clean, high-quality drinking water. Scientists have long established a direct link between. According to the World Health Organization, about 80% of human diseases are caused by drinking poor-quality water for drinking needs.

High-quality drinking water should not have substances harmful to humans, and should contain useful minerals, so necessary for the normal functioning of our body.

Water is the source of life, a determining factor in your health and longevity. Water accompanies a person throughout the day and therefore its presence is natural, habitual, and therefore invisible.

Drinking water is water that is intended for daily unlimited and safe consumption by humans and other living things. The main difference from table water and mineral water is the reduced content of salts (solids), as well as the availability of existing standards for the general composition and properties (SanPiN 2.1.4.1074-01 - for centralized water supply systems and SanPiN 2.1.4.1116-02 - for packaged waters in capacity).

The water of many sources of fresh water is unsuitable for drinking by people, as it can serve as a source of the spread of diseases or cause long-term health problems if it does not meet certain standards of water quality. Water that does not harm human health and meets the requirements of current quality standards is called drinking water. If necessary, in order for the water to comply with sanitary and epidemiological standards, it is purified or, formally speaking, “prepared” using water treatment plants.

The main source of drinking water is natural water, which is cleaned and disinfected by municipal services, having completed all stages of water treatment and water treatment necessary to obtain first technical and then tap water. In Russia, the main ones are reservoirs, rivers, lakes. The proportion of groundwater is not large. In general, the sources are as follows:

• Rain and melt water;
• Underground sources (wells, artesian wells, springs, etc.);
• Water withdrawal from reservoirs, rivers, lakes, etc .;
• Desalination plants;
• Water from icebergs.

Water is divided into artesian, drinking, mineral, purified, sparkling, spring and well water. (according to GOST 51232-98 "Drinking water. General requirements for organization and quality control.")

Below is a list of regulatory and technical documents that regulate the quality of drinking water.

It is known that the human body consists of almost 80 percent of water. Therefore, to replenish its reserves and maintain its level in good condition, each person should consume the required amount of clean drinking water daily. Also, mineral water should not be neglected.

No matter how attractive and seemingly absolutely true the advertisement may be, it is necessary to know that there is no absolutely absolute natural water. One way or another, a person performs certain actions on her before she becomes fit for drinking. Water goes through several stages of filtration, it is neutralized from harmful bacteria with various chemicals, enriched with vitamin and mineral additives.

Quality water sold in stores should contain the following information on the label:

• sparkling or still water;
• drinking or mineral;
• if the water is mineral, then its purpose is mandatory - canteen, medicinal, medicinal-canteen;
• belonging to a group of water, depending on the main salts contained in it;
• quantitative indicator of the content of ions in water.

The following most common water classifications are:

1. Drinking still

   It happens first and highest category. It contains a minimum amount of salts (approximately 200-500 mg per 1 liter). Water of the highest category contains an optimally balanced amount of salts, the chemical composition of the water of the first category is absolutely harmless. The use of such water gives a wonderful refreshing effect. It is recommended to drink it slightly chilled. It is also recommended to use such water in the cooking process.

2. Natural carbonated

   Such water has the same degree of mineralization as ordinary water. However, unlike plain water, it is enriched in carbon dioxide particles. The process of carbonating water allows you to increase its shelf life, to protect against harmful substances. Sparkling water perfectly quenches thirst, moreover, it is completely free from germs and harmful bacteria.

   However, people suffering from gastritis and prone to flatulence are not recommended to drink sparkling water in order to avoid irritation of the gastric mucosa caused by an increase in the acidity level of gastric juice.

   • silver and iodine ions effectively fight microbes;
   • selenium has a wonderful antioxidant effect;
   • fluoride helps retain calcium in the body;
   • iodine has a pronounced protective effect aimed at the prevention of thyroid diseases;
   • oxygen perfectly tones and helps to improve the overall well-being of a person.
3. Chemically enriched water (silver ions, minerals, oxygen)

   The main task of this water is to fill the deficiency of minerals and vitamins in the human body. The shelf life of such water is much higher than that of ordinary. The beneficial substances contained in water are designed to solve many problems:

   However, in order to avoid an overdose of vitamins and minerals, do not use too much of the water enriched with them.

4. Table Mineral Water

   It happens both natural and artificially mineralized. For one liter of water there is one gram of salts. Such water has natural bubbles, it is not specially carbonated. It is perhaps the most effective means of quenching thirst during a period of intense heat. Table water is very soft and pleasant to taste, suitable for daily use. However, cooking is not recommended.

5. Mineral water

   One liter of such water accounts for one to ten grams of salts. It is noteworthy that water with a predominant content of sodium chloride has a more brackish taste, and water enriched in magnesium sulfate has a bitter taste. The use of medicinal-table water improves the metabolic processes of the body, contributes to a mild laxative effect. Despite the fact that you can drink such water without a prescription, you should not abuse it. Otherwise, excessive accumulation of salts in the body can provoke various complications, which can affect the kidneys, blood vessels, teeth and other organs of the person.

6. Healing Mineral Water

   It is the most saturated salt water - the degree of its mineralization is more than 10 grams per 1 liter. Moreover, the prevailing content is usually one active trace element. Healing water is always carbonated and has a pronounced, strong flavor, it is bottled exclusively in glass containers. Using such water can cure many diseases. However, it is necessary to drink it only on the recommendation of a doctor, in strictly defined quantities.

Bottled water

Recently, more and more people are beginning to understand that drinking tap water is not entirely correct, since such water contains quite a lot of foreign impurities that do not have the best effect on health. For this reason, water poured into plastic bottles in the factory (bottled) has become quite popular. In order for water to be considered bottled, it must meet certain requirements for chemical and physical composition.

As containers for bottled water, plastic or glass containers with a volume of 250 milliliters to 22 liters are used. The composition of bottled water cannot include any additional elements (flavoring additives, food colors, etc.), the caloric content of such a product cannot exceed zero percent.

Bottled water in its composition is divided into the following types:

• Mineral
• Artesian.
• Purified or distilled.
• Spring or well.

Benefits of Bottled Water

The main advantage of bottled water is the indicator that it does not contain any harmful impurities. Water, before being bottled in special containers, is cleaned in accordance with current regulations.

Also, the advantage of bottled water is the fact that it is bottled in containers of various volumes and you can take as much water with you as you need while there is no need for additional purification. And if you find any shares (for example, here https://www.truewater.ru/aktsii/), then you can also save on such water.

Disadvantages of bottled water

One of the main disadvantages of bottled water is that during the cleaning process it loses not only harmful substances, but also useful minerals. In addition, the quality of bottled water is not practically possible for the ordinary consumer and one has to rely on the honesty of the manufacturer.

What is the difference between mineral water and drinking water. Not every drinking water has mineralization

When someone tries to compare a mineral water with ordinary water, it is the same as trying to find common features between sour and red. It is clear that these characteristics are simply in different planes. It is worth noting that not every water can be mineralized, just like not every mineral water belongs to the category of drinking liquids.

Drinking water is a liquid medium, which in its composition is suitable for human consumption without a doctor's prescription. That is, it is all water, starting from tap water and ending with extracted substances from artesian wells. The use of such water does not harm the body.

Mineral water may well be so saturated with micro and macro elements that it is impossible to drink it without harm to health. Such waters are in balneological resorts. In special pools they take baths, wipe themselves, but in no case do they drink.

Mineral water with a high salt content is not found in stores. For fans of baths with minerals they sell various salts, but, often, they are not of very high quality and certainly such water cannot be considered natural.

Therapeutic mineral water. Mineral water treatment in medicine

By the degree of mineralization, all waters are divided into waters

• weak
• small
• middle
• and high salinity.

The first are used for oral administration, and water with high mineralization is only for baths.

The chemical composition of mineral waters is very diverse, but the healing properties are attributed to only a few ions - sodium, calcium, potassium, magnesium.

In the gas composition of the waters, the presence of carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, nitrogen and methane is important. An important role is played by biologically active substances - iron, iodine, bromine, fluorine, etc. Let us consider what treatment with mineral water can be used for.

Indications for treatment with mineral water:

Scientists have found that the healing properties of mineral water can be explained by the replacement of cellular water with a partially destroyed structure with structured water, which improves the work of absolutely all body cells. At the same time, the body independently discovers diseases and treats them.

Mineral water treatment is used for drinking, rinsing the mouth, washing the stomach, inhalation, in the form of enemas, showers or baths.

Mineral water treatment is indicated for the following diseases:

gastritis, ulcer of the stomach and duodenum without exacerbation of diseases and bleeding, disease of the large and small intestines without exacerbations of the disease, intestinal dyskinesia;

early stage of Botkin's disease, pancreatitis, obesity;

urinary tract diseases - cystitis, pyelonephritis, urolithiasis.

Of course, the most common use of mineral water is for drinking.

Treatment with mineral water inside has a cleansing and therapeutic effect due to the general mineralization of water, its ionic composition, the presence of active ions, organic substances and gases.

Contraindications to treatment with mineral water:

Mineral water is contraindicated in acute diseases and inflammatory processes in the stomach and intestines, accompanied by bleeding and vomiting. In case of diarrhea, one should drink very small portions of mineral water, which has a low salt content. And if there are obstacles and disruptions in the passage of food through the digestive tract, it is better to completely abandon its use.

Overweight people are not recommended to drink sparkling water, it increases the feeling of hunger. To treat mineral water for obesity, you need to drink plenty of fluids, and in order to cope with often associated hypertension, it is recommended to use low-mineralized water.

Treatment with bicarbonate water is contraindicated in case of a strong alkaline urine reaction.

Today, mineral water treatment is widespread. The strength of the effect depends on the water itself and the minerals dissolved in it.

Therapeutic tubage

Medical tubage is a procedure that enhances the formation and secretion of bile. You need to lie on your right side, bend your knees and slowly drink 2 cups of warm mineral water for half an hour, for example, Lysogorskaya, Batalinskaya, Narzan. Then put a warm heating pad on the right in the upper abdomen on the liver area. Lie down for 1.5 hours. It is recommended to do this procedure once a week for 3 months with cholecystitis, hepatitis, pancreatitis, and intestinal diseases. Tubation in gallstone disease is contraindicated.

Important!  Before use, it is better to warm the water to 40 degrees. Drinking mineral water for medicinal purposes should be 3 times a day from 3/4 cup to 1.5 cup per reception (total not more than a liter per day):

• with normal acidity - 30 minutes before eating;
• with reduced acidity and a tendency to constipation - immediately before meals;
• with increased acidity - 1.5 hours before or after meals.

Hydrocolonotherapy or bowel irrigation is not an innovation in medicine. The procedure has been used for decades to treat various diseases of the digestive tract. But in recent years, doctors have increasingly begun to speak negatively about this technique. Efficient and safe or yet useless and uncomfortable? What is the essence of the procedure, why is irrigation of the intestine carried out, what benefit and harm can it do, read the article.

What is hydrocolonotherapy?

Cleansing intestinal enemas were used in medicine in the days of Hippocrates and Galen. Irrigation of the intestine by the principle of action can be compared with an enema.

Scientists who have studied the intestines have come to the conclusion that many putrefactive bacteria accumulate in the human colon, which poison the body with their waste products. With impaired bowel function, fecal stones and toxins are deposited in it. All this leads to the appearance of discomfort in the abdomen, the development of flatulence, cramping, constipation, and violation of peristalsis. Nutrients from food cannot be fully absorbed, as a result of which the body does not receive micronutrients, feels a lack of energy, and metabolism is disturbed.

In order to get rid of slagging of the digestive tract, to clear it of fecal stones and mucus, an irrigation of the intestine is carried out.

Bowel Irrigation Effect

The procedure has a therapeutic and preventive effect. However, a doctor should prescribe it, since it has a number of contraindications. We will talk about them a little later, but for now we’ll talk about why hydrocolonotherapy is prescribed. During its implementation, you can:

• remove toxins from the intestines;
• improve its peristalsis;
• bring the muscles of the intestines to tone;
• normalize or restore the ability of the intestine to cleanse itself;
• strengthen general immunity (the effect is achieved due to the fact that there are many immunocompetent cells in the intestine, and when the intestines are cleaned, their work is adjusted);
• normalize the body's water balance (by cleansing the walls of the intestine, they better absorb water in the future);
• improve biochemical processes in the tissues of the body (due to the removal of toxins);
• normalize blood circulation in the vessels of the intestine.

The effect of hydrocolonotherapy can be seen after 2-3 procedures. But to obtain a therapeutic effect, it is required to take a course of 8-10 sessions.

After the first procedures, patients notice improvements in well-being, lightness, and peristalsis. In some cases, through irrigation of the intestine, you can achieve rejuvenation of the body, but this is not the main purpose of the procedure, but can be considered a "nice bonus". It is worth noting that this is not a cosmetology, but a medical procedure. It should be carried out only in a medical institution or sanatorium, but not in a beauty parlor.

To whom is the procedure indicated?

Hydrocolonotherapy has a clear list of indications. It is advisable to carry it out in the presence of such diseases and conditions:

• chronic colitis;
• prostatitis;
• biliary tract disease;
• obesity caused by metabolic disorders;
• intestinal dyspepsia, in which severe colic, flatulence are observed;
• irritable bowel syndrome;
• protracted constipation;
• intestinal dysbiosis;
• some dermatological diseases that are difficult to treat (eczema, psoriasis);
• state of alcohol or drug intoxication.

When is therapy contraindicated?

The procedure is not suitable for everyone and everyone, and even more so it cannot be performed without a doctor’s appointment, on the personal initiative of a person. It has a number of contraindications, in the presence of which the patient, irrigation of the intestine can be harmful to health. These include:

• hemorrhoids;
• anal fissures;
• the presence of polyps in the intestine;
• oncological diseases of the intestine;
• frequent diarrhea;
• intestinal obstruction;
• prolapse of the rectum;
• pathology of the anal sphincter;
• crohn's disease;
• hernia in the groin, abdomen;
• intestinal bleeding;
• taking medications (hormones, antibiotics);
• recent surgery
• mental disorders;
• kidney problems
• menstruation;
• pregnancy, the period of breastfeeding;
• any illness accompanied by fever;
• heart and vascular disease.

Advantages and disadvantages of the procedure

Intestinal irrigation is considered an effective method of treatment and prevention of many diseases of the body and the gastrointestinal tract in particular. However, the technique also has drawbacks, which doctors have been talking about more often lately. Most likely, they will not be said about in private centers, where the procedure is carried out on a paid basis.

Irrigation of the intestine can not only benefit, but also harm the body. The fact is that the intestines of each person have their own microflora. It provides digestion processes. When large volumes of water pass through the intestines, and this is what happens during the process of hydrocolonotherapy, microflora is washed out. Its restoration will take a lot of time and require a set of measures: dieting, taking probiotics.

Fecal stones that are washed out as a result of irrigation should normally leave the intestines naturally. In order for this process to proceed normally, a person needs to adjust intestinal motility. It may take a single month to normalize the intestines, but a course of hydrocolonotherapy requires time. In addition, it is believed that the introduction of large volumes of water into the intestine can stretch its walls and impair the contractility of muscles, which will negatively affect peristalsis.

The procedure, of course, has a positive effect, but it should be carried out in the presence of clear indications. Many doctors do not recommend considering it as a preventive measure. Hydrocolonotherapy should be carried out only in the direction and under the supervision of a doctor, in a medical institution, after a comprehensive examination and the exclusion of contraindications.

How is the procedure performed?

Irrigation of the intestine is carried out with mineral water with a low concentration of trace elements. Normal tap water is not suitable for this, as well as highly mineralized, as it can irritate the intestinal mucosa and cause discomfort to the patient. Depending on the indications, drugs and salts may be added to the water.

There are several varieties of devices designed for hydrocolonotherapy. The most used are a siphon irrigation apparatus and a subaqueous bath.

Subaqueous Baths

The procedure is carried out in a special bathtub equipped with a seat, a water tank and a tube extending from it. At the end of the tube is a rectal tip. The patient is seated in a bathtub on the seat, one third filled with water, a rectal tip is inserted into the rectum. After that, the water level in the bath is increased so that it covers the middle of the person’s chest. Then the bowel lavage begins.

Water at a temperature of 35-37 degrees under slight pressure in portions of 1-1.5 liters enters from the tank into the tube and into the intestines of the patient. After the introduction of a portion of the fluid, the patient must strain to come back together with the intestinal contents. After that, a new portion of fluid enters the intestines. The procedure is repeated several times until the volume of the spent liquid reaches 8-15 liters. One session can take about 40 minutes. The course of treatment may consist of 6-10 procedures, in each case the doctor decides. All this time the patient is in the bath with water, so the procedure is called subaquatic or underwater.

The patient needs to retain the last portion of fluid in himself, after which he goes to the toilet to empty the intestines. At the end, the patient goes to the shower and then rests for an hour with a warm heating pad on his stomach.

Siphon irrigation

An alternative to subaquatic is siphon irrigation of the intestine. It is also called washing according to Lensky, since it was this scientist who proposed this technique in 1956. The method uses the principle of siphon, when the fluid is introduced and removed from the intestine at the same time. This prevents overstretching of its walls.

Lensky's apparatus consists of a 20-liter tank, a branch pipe with a tip extending from it. During the procedure, the reservoir with the liquid is fixed at a height of 120 cm from the level of the couch on which the patient lies. Water temperature should be at the level of 37-39 degrees.

The patient is placed on a bedpan, a tube tip is inserted into the rectum, and water is released. After the water is in the intestine, the position of the tube is changed so that the fluid comes back. Irrigation is carried out for 20-30 minutes, upon completion, the patient should rest.

Repeat the procedure every other day. The course may include up to 10 procedures. Gradually, the amount of injected fluid is increased. In the first session, it is 8 liters, and during the last one it can reach 20 liters.

Sterility issue

Given the specifics of the procedure, most of the people who are faced with it are interested in the issue of disinfection of devices. After the end of each procedure, all parts of the apparatus used to carry it out are thoroughly washed and disinfected. Particular attention is paid to the seat and rectal tip. The seat after brushing with soap is immersed in water at a temperature of 90 degrees for 10 minutes or boiled for 5 minutes. The rectal tip is also processed by boiling. After that, the seat and tip are disinfected with a solution of chloramine.

Only a doctor should prescribe hydrocolonotherapy so that it brings a positive result. Do not use the services of clinics that offer irrigation on paid terms to everyone. The doctor must take into account all the contraindications of the patient so that the treatment does not give the opposite effect.

Ordinary water can be harmful.

Easy! She washes nutrients.

You can, firstly, you need to drink it without gas, and secondly, in a certain amount

Of course you can and easily. Mineral healing water is intended for the treatment of various diseases, and not for daily drinking before, during and after meals, as others think. You can easily seat the stomach and pancreas and kidneys.

I believe that it is impossible. Mineral water is useful, it contains many trace elements to improve the functioning of the stomach, pancreas, etc.

You can: if you dramatically change the variety or properties of water and rel. debt. term. (microflora change) as a result of flu or something else.

Another one! If you drink it in immeasurable quantities! Not without reason in the annotations for each water there is a description of what diseases and in what quantities it should be taken! There are medicinal, canteen and medicinal canteen waters! Canteens can be drunk as plain water, medical canteens - do not overdo it, and it is better to take medicinal ones after consultation with a doctor! Of course, one glass of any water will not harm you, but if you drink it regularly, you may have problems,

Chemical elements and free carbon dioxide contained in all medicinal mineral waters, when overused, can disrupt the secretory and motor functions of the stomach, bile formation and bile secretion, acid-base balance in the body; mineral salts irritate the kidneys, bladder; sodium salts are especially harmful for those suffering from chronic nephritis, hypertension, heart disease, accompanied by edema.

Speaking directly about the kidneys. then with the existing urolithiasis any mineral water is contraindicated, like any other products with a high content of salts. Contribute to the formation of calculi (pebbles). With existing chronic pyelonephritis, they can provoke the development of ICD,

Diarrhea from mineral water and green tea

• digestion improves;

What can I drink with diarrhea?

For every person, from time to time, due to different circumstances, stool disorder can occur, and there is always a risk of dehydration, especially in young children, which is why you need to know how to properly organize drinking with diarrhea.

Replenishment of lost fluid and electrolytes is of paramount importance in the overall complex of therapeutic measures for this pathological condition.

Drinking a patient with loose stools should be started as early as possible, even before establishing the cause of the disease and carrying out the treatment prescribed by the doctor.

What to drink

The basis of the drinking regimen with multiple diarrhea is tea and saline solutions with low osmolarity, which can be purchased at a pharmacy or prepared at home on their own.

The latter can reduce the frequency of stool and restore the disturbed water-electrolyte balance, in addition, they are well tolerated and rarely cause vomiting. With the correct use of such solutions, intravenous infusions can be avoided, but under the condition of mild (weight loss of not more than 5%) or moderate degree of dehydration (up to 10%).

Only a doctor can determine the degree of dehydration and the need for hospitalization in a hospital.

1. Rehydron - The powder contains sodium and potassium chlorides, sodium citrate and dextrose. The bag is dissolved in 1 liter of boiled water, pre-cooled to room temperature. The prepared solution can be stored in the refrigerator for a day.
2. Trihydron is a drug of a similar composition; to prepare a drink, you need half a liter of boiled water and 1 sachet.
3. Glucosolan is a powder in two sachets (in one - glucose, in the other - soda, sodium and potassium chloride). Before use, both bags are dissolved in a liter of boiled water.
4. Citroglucosolan - medicinal drink is prepared from 1 sachet and 1 liter of drinking water.
5. Oralit - contains bicarbonate and sodium chloride, potassium chloride, glucose.
6. Hydrovit forte - has the same composition as Regidron. To prepare the solution, you need to dilute 1 bag in one glass of drinking water, it is allowed to use chilled tea.

What to drink

In addition to saline solutions, with diarrhea, it is allowed to drink mineral water without gas:

During the first 6 or 12 hours from the onset of the disease (the period is determined by the condition of the patient and the degree of dehydration), it is necessary to exclude all nutrition and withstand a hungry pause.

The expansion of the diet in the future will occur gradually as the patient's condition improves due to:

Proper nutrition can be introduced only after normalization of the stool and general well-being of a person.

As one of the effective means of drinking in acute diarrhea in adults and children, a decoction of fresh carrots is recommended. The root crop needs to be washed, peeled, cut into pieces, boiled, cooled, then squeezed through cheesecloth into the resulting broth, strain and drink fractionally in a sip every 5-7 minutes.

You can alternate with a decoction of wild rose and dried fruits (without adding sugar). As folk recipes, infusions of berries and cranberry leaves, decoctions of blueberries, bird cherry, chokeberry are widely used.

Tea beloved by everyone with diarrhea is allowed to drink in its pure form without flavors and flavors, the brewing should be about twice as strong as usual. Caution should be observed in people with high blood pressure. Black tea with diarrhea is preferable to green tea, which in itself has a laxative effect.

What not to drink

• sparkling water (lemonade, mineral water);
• kvass, beer, alcoholic drinks;
• fresh fruit juices - tomato, grape, plum, apricot, peach, citrus, pineapple;
• green tea;
• milk, cocoa, coffee.

Proper drinking with intestinal disorders is the key to a successful recovery. However, it is important to understand that prolonged or repeated diarrhea, especially in young children, is an occasion for immediate medical attention.

Do not self-medicate in the presence of symptoms such as:

It is safe to drink saline and other solutions at home only with mild disorders of the stool and under the supervision of a doctor.

After tea, diarrhea

Diarrhea is basically a protective reaction of the body, seeking to quickly get rid of pathogens, products of decay and fermentation of toxins. The main danger of diarrhea is dehydration, which in children and the elderly in severe cases can lead to death.

Given the importance of maintaining water balance in order to ensure the normal course of metabolic processes in the human body, it is necessary to ensure sufficient fluid intake. The fluid is consumed in different forms. It can be tea, coffee, juices, water - mineral, sparkling and from the source. However, in some cases, after consumption, they can cause diarrhea.

Diarrhea after water can be caused by drinking contaminated water or from an unknown source. Usually this type of loose stool is called "traveler's disease." Indeed, in these cases, water can be infected with pathogenic bacteria, which, when ingested, disrupt the microflora and provoke diarrhea.

Drinking plenty of sweet water also leads to diarrhea. This is due to the fact that in the formulation of its production there are substitutes that are not processed in the intestine. As a result, after drinking, intestinal motility increases, and fluid accumulates in the lumen, which could not be absorbed into the intestinal wall. The result will be loose stools.

Sparkling water containing a large amount of carbon dioxide causes irritation of the walls of the stomach, increasing the secretion of gastric juice. Once in the esophagus, the acid causes heartburn and promotes the formation of erosion and ulcers, accompanied by diarrhea. Mineral water is often used as drinking water, although initially it was offered purely for medicinal purposes. The therapeutic use of mineral water should be carried out in strict accordance with medical recommendations.

Any violation, especially in combination with the use of fatty foods, allergenic foods or alcohol, can lead to diarrhea after use, and in severe cases to general intoxication of the body. In this case, diarrhea after mineral water occurs due to the large use of a cold carbonated drink or its incorrect dosage.

Another drink, green tea, is useful for diarrhea. However, it contains caffeine, which activates the intestines and diarrhea from green tea can be caused after drinking it in large quantities and very strong tea leaves.

Upset stomach from coffee

The drink actively affects the human body and this is due to the high content of caffeine (1500 mg / l). Under his influence:

• cardiac activity accelerates;
• mental and physical performance is stimulated;
• digestion improves;

However, the high content of this substance often provokes the development of diarrhea from coffee. There is a definite connection between its use and the process of defecation; it stimulates intestinal motility. The movement of food received in the digestive tract is provided by muscle contraction, and caffeine serves as a catalyst for accelerating this process, causing diarrhea. Therefore, it will be more accurate to talk about diarrhea after coffee. In addition to the catalytic effect on peristalsis, the acidic nature of the brewed drink increases the amount of bile, which leads to the development of diarrhea. The appearance of diarrhea after coffee depends on the quality of the drink, the method of preparation and the individual characteristics of the body.

Diarrhea after eating is a serious and frequent problem. Many do not pay attention, thinking that it will be decided soon. This is not true! There are a large number of reasons that lead to the development of this symptom. First of all, pay attention to your diet, it should be full and healthy. Diarrhea is a sign that food is absorbed and not digested.

Causes of diarrhea after eating

• Problems with the central nervous system.
• Irritable bowel syndrome.
• Lingering stress.
• Vegetovascular dystonia, frequent neurosis.
• Intestinal infection.
• Dysbacteriosis occurs due to the fact that intestinal microflora is disturbed. The disease develops when a person takes antibiotics for a long time, with a disturbed diet.

Diarrhea is often a consequence of taking stale food. In this case, it disappears after 2 days, if the symptoms continue, it is necessary to consult with your doctor.

Please note that loose stools are a dangerous symptom that can lead to severe dehydration. As a result, a large number of trace elements are washed out of the body. Diarrhea after eating for a baby is especially dangerous.

Diagnosis of diarrhea after eating

It is important to pass a fecal analysis on time. If there is pus and blood in the feces, intestinal damage can be suspected. An unpleasant odor and greasy appearance of feces are indicated by problems with the distortion of food. The attending doctor at the examination draws attention to the frequency of the stool, nightly urges and diet.

In the case when the diarrhea is caused by an infectious disease, the patient's body temperature rises sharply, the stomach swells, after which his state of health worsens. An intestinal infection is most often treated in a hospital setting to prevent infection by nearby people.

A common cause of diarrhea is stress, a nervous breakdown. Desires most often bother early in the morning after a person had breakfast. At night, diarrhea is not observed. In this case, the analysis of stool, blood does not show infection, intestinal disturbance. It is important to get rid of the causes of nervous tension and stress in time. Only when a person has completely calmed down will an intestinal upset pass. The diagnosis of neurogenic diarrhea is made if an infectious disease, dysbiosis, is not detected.

Post-Meal Diarrhea Treatments

Strong sweet tea with diarrhea or without sugar does not matter. Also, regardless of the type of strong drink chosen, it is quite effective in combating diarrhea, thanks to its tannins. But if fever, vomiting, and abdominal pain are added to diarrhea, seek qualified medical help immediately.

Can tea bring relief? Yes, such a method has long been practiced by healers, and it is widely known among the people. But not everyone knows which tea should be prepared. After all, they come in different varieties, with and without sugar, with cream, lemon and so on. Which one will help get rid of diarrhea?

The black

Strong black tea contains a large amount of caffeine, as well as tannin. The first component is a source of energy, the second - reduces intestinal motility and destroys pathogenic microbes. Due to this, the loss of immunoglobulins decreases, the absorption of toxins by the walls of the intestine slows down. Strong tea also helps with diarrhea to stimulate sweating. It is due to this that the remains of toxins are removed from the body, which managed to penetrate through the capillaries into the blood.

How strong should tea be made? It is customary to throw a double serving of tea leaves on a cup. You can even drink a few teaspoons of tea concentrate (sold at grocery stores), washed down with water. In no case milk, lemon, cream, chocolate or condensed milk are added to it.

All this will only increase the symptoms of diarrhea and can provoke a frequent urge to defecate.

Green

The key differences of green tea are absent:

• caffeine;
• tannin (significantly lower concentration);
• there are antioxidants.

It helps with diarrhea much worse than concentrated black, but in extreme cases it also works.

It is not necessary to make him strong - it will not be of any benefit. But as a liquid, it is suitable, since it does not give a load to the stomach, it does not regulate the acid-base balance. You can dissolve vegetable oils in it for oral administration - their taste will not be felt, but the absorption of toxins by the intestines will decrease.

Green tea is recommended to drink at a high temperature - it helps to thin the blood, eliminates muscle pain. But if it rises to 38.5 degrees and above, then, most likely, diarrhea is associated with infection in the digestive tract. It is better to consult a doctor immediately.

Sweet

Is it possible to drink sweet tea with diarrhea? Allowed, but in small portions. Sugar in its pure form is light carbohydrates. When it enters the stomach, it breaks down into a derivative of glucose or sucrose. That, in turn, is processed into energy, which is extremely necessary when sent.

What other teas can be taken with diarrhea?

Tea from oak bark, blueberries, crackers will help to quickly get rid of diarrhea. The last option is the most effective. To prepare such a decoction, take 4-5 slices of dried bread (without mold), pour warm water and stand for a minute. Then the water is carefully drained, brought to a boil and poured into a thermos. They drink 100 milliliters 3 times a day. Such a decoction promotes the removal of toxins due to the presence in its composition of cellulose (its derivatives from baked flour).

The painful symptoms of diarrhea are also eliminated by a decoction of beans. It is advisable to take white. For cooking, you need a gram of legumes and 300 milliliters of water. All this is boiled over low heat for 1.5 hours.

You need to take only the resulting "tea" milliliters 2 times a day before meals.

Is it possible to drink strong tea for pregnant women and children?

Doctors allow pregnant women to drink only black and green natural teas, without any special strength. Chamomile, blueberries, oak bark and birch are strictly contraindicated, as they contain substances that contribute to muscle relaxation. During pregnancy, this can cause premature birth. But decoctions of legumes, as well as crackers and rice - you can. It is only necessary to take into account that the latter - fastens, therefore it can cause constipation.

Teas are allowed to children without restrictions, but less strong than for adults. It is customary to give chamomile and other medicinal plants from 5-6 years old, not earlier. From diarrhea in infants helps dill water. To obtain such tea, 1/3 teaspoon of seeds is taken and a glass of boiling water is poured. Insist for at least 1.5 hours, then strain. Add 2 teaspoons per bottle of water (milliliters).

The use of tea for prevention is allowed. This, at a minimum, helps to optimize the positive intestinal microflora. It should not be abused, especially tea on medicinal herbs (sage, mint, wild rose, bergamot).

Water that is bottled and stored for a long time is processed until sterility is complete. No longer there are any natural microbes. UV lamps. They are treated with carbon dioxide, which is bottled .. It is a preservative antibiotic. Water is just dead from the dead. No use.

mineral water gives healing power 30 minutes-2 hours from the moment of collection from the source.

Mineral water may increase diarrhea, maybe not. It all depends on the source.

What you drink from bottles is not mineral at all from the source, but from the factories. Salts were mixed and poured.
