Diverticulosis Cured By Squatting
Pressure within the colon causes bulging pockets of
tissue (sacs) that push out from the colonic walls as a person
ages. A small bulging sac pushing outward from the colon wall
is called a diverticulum. More than one bulging sac is referred
to as diverticula. Diverticula can occur throughout the colon
but are most common near the end of the left colon called the
sigmoid colon. The condition of having these diverticula in the
colon is called diverticulosis.
A patient with diverticulosis may have few or no symptoms. When
a diverticulum ruptures and becomes infected, the condition is
called diverticulitis. A patient suffering from diverticulitis
will have abdominal pain, abdominal tenderness, and fever. When
bleeding originates from a diverticulum, it is called
diverticular bleeding. A patient who suffers the consequences
of diverticulosis in the colon is referred to as having
diverticular disease. According to www.medicinenet.com,
diverticular disease is common in the Western world but is
extremely rare in areas such as Asia and Africa.
From the Mayo Clinic website: "...Diverticula usually develop
when naturally weak places in your colon give way under
pressure... These marble-sized pouches... often occur as a
result of straining during bowel movements over a number of
years." Colonic diverticulosis develops as a result of
excessive straining at defecation due to habitual bowel
emptying in a sitting posture.
According to the US National Institutes of Health:
"Constipation makes the muscles strain to move stool that is
too hard. It is the main cause of increased pressure in the
colon. This excess pressure might cause the weak spots in the
colon to bulge out and become diverticula."
MayoClinic.com website: "...Diverticula usually develop when
naturally weak places in your colon give way under pressure...
These marble-sized pouches... often occur as a result of
straining during bowel movements over a number of years."
Affects half of all Americans age 60 to 80 - and almost
everyone over age 80.
The medical establishments do not want to talk about it for
obvious reasons. The companies that make the drugs and/or
surgical equipment for treating diverticulosis and
diverticulitis would rather not have you know that... Squatting
for bowel movements is the no-cost, natural remedy and cure for
diverticulosis and diverticulitis...
