The digestive system starts from the mouth and ends at the anus, with the function of receiving food, digesting, absorbing nutrients and eliminating waste. Therefore, if the digestive system, especially the intestines, has problems, it will affect the entire function of the body, according to the health website Verywell Health (USA).
Gut bacteria imbalance may trigger headaches
Intestinal problems can lead to the following symptoms:
Chronic fatigue
An imbalance in gut bacteria can cause mild inflammation and affect the body's ability to absorb nutrients, making the body tired. However, patients can easily mistake it for chronic fatigue, anemia, or other endocrine disorders.
Headache or migraine
One thing that not everyone knows is that the gut and the brain are intimately connected. This is reflected in the neural connection, hormones, and the ability of gut bacteria to cause inflammation and thereby affect the brain. An imbalance in gut bacteria can trigger headaches.
Meanwhile, patients often think headaches are caused by stress, high blood pressure or neurological disorders.
Skin problems
Gut problems, especially leaky gut syndrome, can cause inflammation. This can lead to skin problems like acne or severe itching. Many people mistake these for allergies or hormonal acne.
Mood swings
Poor gut health can affect your mood. Some research suggests that gut disorders may be a potential cause of stress, anxiety, and depression. Probiotics may help treat these conditions.
To protect intestinal health, people need to reduce stress, eat slowly and eat foods that are beneficial to intestinal bacteria. Measures to help reduce stress include meditation, walking or spending time with friends and family. Sleep should be maintained for 7-8 hours/day.
After sleeping, you need to pay attention to your meals. Eating too quickly will lead to poor digestion and harm your intestines. Instead, you should eat slowly and chew thoroughly. Your daily diet should include foods that are beneficial for gut bacteria, such as yogurt, kimchi, oatmeal, bananas, pickles, or fermented vegetables, according to Verywell Health.
