Helicobacter pylori - a childhood acquaintance |
|
In 1994 World Health Organization (WHO) placed HP in the first group of carcinogens noting that prolonged infection, acquired in early childhood, favors the development of gastric malignancies such as cancer and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
It is disturbing that any symptoms that would indicate the presence of bacteria in the stomach may not appear for years.
Helicobacter pylori was discovered in 1979 and was isolated and named in 1983 by Robin Warren and Barry J. Marshall.
Helicobacter pylori is a gram-negative microaerophilic bacterium that inhabits various parts of the stomach and duodenum, where it causes inflammation. It is strongly associated with the majority of stomach problems including stomach malignancies.
Infectivity with this bacteria in combination with smoking, use of alcohol, unhealthy foods (fried foods), as well as some drugs (salicylates, hormonal preparations, antibiotics, narcotics) is especially dangerous because it causes a continuous damage to the stomach lining and the erosion (destruction) of stomach tissue.
Contemporary lifestyle, often too dynamic and stressful, multiplies problems because it is known that stress stimulates the secretion of gastric acid that damages the gastric mucosa.
All those factors, with the presence of Helicobacter pylori, increase the incidence of stomach problems, among other things, of stomach ulcer, by as much as 60 times.
It is interesting that the scientist Barry Marshall infected himself with the bacterium Helicobacter pylori to prove that it causes stomach problems.
The experiment was, fortunately or unfortunately, successful - Barry Marshall, after a certain time, developed gastritis!
One gets infected with Helicobacter in childhood
Most recently research indicated that HP infection starts in early childhood and that in most cases the infection lasts for as long as one lives.
Depending on the environment and the socio-economic status, a significant number of children become infected in the first ten years of life.
Also, the disease is more common in children who attend preschool, where the direct contact with children is crucial.
Infections in children may contribute to stunting and malnutrition. In addition, HP opens the door to other pathogenic disease agents.
You have to take care of your stomach health since the early age
We in Croatia should also worry about the results of a study according to which HP is present in 29% of six-year-olds, with a surprisingly high prevalence of atrophic gastritis (20%), also among children.
Given that we now know that atrophic gastritis is associated with the development of malignant diseases of the stomach (the second most common cancer in the world), we see an increasing number of those who believe that the infection must be prevented and combated at a younger age, because that may be the most effective method of preventing the occurrence of gastritis, ulcer or gastric cancer at a later age.
Chlorophyll against Helicobacter
As early as in 1950’s it was found that chlorophyll has antibacterial activity that is essentially bacteriostatic, meaning that chlorophyll prevents the growth and reproduction of many strains of bacteria, especially those anaerobic.
Another property of chlorophyll is its amazing healing ability, especially in the treatment of external and internal tissue injury, as explained by Dr. Collings: Chlorophyll is far ahead of all other natural substances when it comes to the ability to stimulate cell regeneration and tissue regeneration.
In research it was showed that the time required for the treatment of tissue injury was significantly shorter when chlorophyll was used than when penicillin, vitamin D or sulfa were used.
Synergistic effect of both effect mechanisms of chlorophyll is particularly evident in the treatment of gastritis, gastric ulcer and duodenal ulcers, infections of the teeth and gums, superficial wounds, vaginal infections, sinusitis, inflammatory bowel disease and fistula.
Several significant studies have documented the use of chlorophyll in the eradication of HP, and the treatment of gastritis and peptic ulcer in patients where conventional therapy treatment proved ineffective. The results look promising.
In the famous Offenkrantz study, 20 of 27 patients with chronic ulcers resolved the pain and other symptoms within 24-72 hours after the initial application of chlorophyll.
The full recovery of the injured tissue, documented by X-ray, occurred in 20 of the 24 people during the period lasting two to seven weeks.
This report describes outstanding examples of long-term recovery in serious cases. Rafsky and Krieger reported good results using chlorophyll (chlorofilin) against spastic colon and ulcerative colitis.
Chlorophyll:
- prevents cancer
- cleanses the body of toxins
- alkalinizes the organism
- is effective against Helicobacter pylori
- prevents bad breath
Paraprotex - plants for the health of the digestive tract
In addition to liquid chlorophyll, we recommend using Paraprotexa for an effective and natural fight against the bacteria that threaten the stomach health.
Paraprotex is an herbal preparation intended for maintaining the health of the digestive system and removing parasites from the intestinal tract.
This product contains herbal extracts and vegetable oils with antibacterial, antiviral and fungicidal activity. For example, the grapefruit seed oil has proven efficient in numerous laboratory and clinical studies against 800 different strains of bacteria and about 100 species of fungi and certain parasites.
Louis Pasteur discovered that garlic exhibits antibiotic properties, and it is now known that garlic protects the liver from the harmful effects of drugs and toxins.
Modern antifungal pharmacology attributes anti-parasitic, anti-tumor, anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties to the amazing tree Pau D'Arco (Taheebo).
It also contains clove oil (Eugenia Cariophyllata Thumb) whose ingredient eugenol promotes digestion by relaxing the muscles of the gastrointestinal tract. It acts against intestinal parasites and is active against a wide spectrum of microbes.
Myrtle, a plant known since biblical times, is especially beneficial to sensitive gum lining, trachea, stomach and small intestine. Myrtle has a wide range of effectivity that covers most of digestive problems, from upset stomach to gastrointestinal ulcers.
How to use this combination?
We recommend you to take one Paraprotex pill three times a day between meals or before meals with a glass of water in which you have dissolved one tablespoon of liquid chlorophyll.
