GASTROENTEROLOGICAL FIELD
The gastrointestinal system, which includes the stomach, small intestine, large intestine, liver, gallbladder, and pancreas, is vital for digestion, nutrient absorption, and waste elimination. Hence, maintaining a healthy gastrointestinal system is crucial for preventing problems such as irritable bowel syndrome, constipation, diarrhoea, and acid reflux. Controlling the digestive process is crucial for absorbing the proper nutrients—vitamins, minerals, and proteins—necessary for your body's proper functioning. By managing these aspects correctly, you can prevent various diseases, including gastrointestinal conditions like colitis, diverticulitis, ulcers, haemorrhoids, and colon cancer, as well as liver-related issues such as cirrhosis and non-alcoholic hepatic steatosis, ultimately improving your quality of life.
Preventing gastroenterological diseases also positively affects your mental and emotional health. The gut-brain axis connects the gut and brain, linking the balance of gut flora to beneficial effects on mental health. At Italcares, you can access programmes to balance the digestive system, for care and overall health.
