Okay . . . so the question for today is this . . . do you know what "prokinetics" are???
Well . . . simply put . . . they're a group of drugs . . . OR . . . natural elements . . . that "propel" food and "bacteria" through the "stagnant" colon . . . which can "improve" SIBO.
They're an agent . . . that "promotes" small intestinal "motility".
So in other words . . . they help to put the "bad" bacteria back into the "large" intestine where they belong . . . so they can be eliminated from the body.
Now . . . "Prokinetic" drugs can be prescribed by your personal physician . . . or you can go the "ALL" natural route.
But . . . as always . . . consult your own healthcare provider before taking anything new or diagnosing a health issue on your own.
So what are the most common prescribed "prokinetics" in the "conventional" world of medicine???
Well . . . they would be . . .
Metoclopramide
Domperidone
Trimebutine
Cisapride
Itopride
Prucalopride
And Mosapride
And in the "Naturopathic and Alternative" world of medicine . . . my world . . .
The most common are . . .
Spore forming probiotics
Curcumin
Melatonin
Peppermint leaf
Artichoke leaf
Licorice root
Bitter candytuft
Amla
And Ginger root
Now . . . I've spoken many times before about "ginger root" being the answer to many of our ailments . . .
And this . . . would be no different . . .
You see . . . "ginger root" has the ability to "increase" food TRANSIT TIME through the stomach . . . all while "improving" bile acids and pancreatic enzyme production.
And with this . . . "ginger root" can "improve" digestion and "protect" our gastric mucosa.
So how is this accomplished you ask???
Well . . . "ginger root" . . . helps to "stimulate" MOTILITY in the digestive tract.
One of the main reasons we get SIBO, Leaky gut . . . or "any" digestive issue for that matter.
"LACK OF MOTILITY"
So tomorrow . . . let's dig a little deeper to better understand just how . . . this "motility" works and "WHY" it's soooooooo "IMPORTANT" to our optimal health.
