You will find gastroparesis natural remedies in this article. Gastroparesis happens when the stomach is slow to empty its contents into the duodenum, although there is no obstruction. You may experience some or several symptoms including nausea, vomiting, stomach spasm, loss of appetite, feeling full after a few bites, or bloating. It is often hard to diagnose without looking inside the stomach (only done by a doctor with proper equipment). Another cause could be insulin resistance.
Modern medicine treats gastroparesis with medications that force the stomach muscles to expel the food. Side effects cause many of the similar symptoms as gastroparesis as if they are trying to treat it – nausea and vomiting.
The common cause is a diet rich in fat (including fast food) or high-fiber foods. Other causes can be medications, eating disorders, nervous disorders, thyroid problems and more. Diet changes are essential, along with the help of herbs, homeopathic remedies, and cell salts. Be sure to eliminate tobacco, alcohol, coffee, black tea and sodas as well as fast food.
Natural Healing Protocol — First, choose an herb. Then add a cell salt or cell salt solution. Finally, choose the homeopathic remedy that fits your situation best. Combining supplements will do more to support your body’s ability to function properly than using just one. Your ability to heal will depend on the severity and length of time symptoms have been present.
