IBS sufferers account for ten to twenty percent of the world's populations today. It is one of the most commonly diagnosed disorders today in the United States and Canada. In most cases gastroenterologists diagnose it. These are doctors that specialize in medical treatment of disorders of the stomach and intestines. It is also one of the most common problems that are being seen by primary care physicians as well.
There are many other terms that have been used to describe Irritable Bowl Syndrome. They include such things as spastic colon, mucous colitis, spastic colitis, nervous stomach or irritable colon. No matter the name, the condition is the same and it causes some people to have to change their lives drastically in order to deal with the condition and problems associated with it.
Medical professionals classify the condition of Irritable Bowel Syndrome as functional disorder. A functional disorder refers to a disorder or disease where the primary abnormality is an altered physiological function, which is the way the body works, rather than an identifiable structural of biochemical cause. It characterizes a disorder that generally cannot be diagnosed in a traditionally way. It cannot be found by x-ray or blood test.
IBS is understood as multi-faceted disorder. In people with IBS there are many symptoms. These symptoms appear to come from a disturbance in the interaction between the intestines, the brain and automatic nervous system that alters regulation of bowel motility.
Some of the symptoms that people experience from IBS are abdominal pain or discomfort. This discomfort is associated with a change in bowel patterns, such as loose or more frequent bowel movement, diarrhea and/or constipation.
My father was a wholesale Jeweler (Bless his soul). Every week he would bring home a hand full of stones and put them in the bottom of the fish tank. No, we did not have gravel we just had different stones like opals, emeralds, rubies, a few diamonds and so on. We had every possible stone sitting in the bottom of the fish tank. We did not think twice about it.
You ask why? Well, you see, stones are worthless, the most expensive thing in any jewelry is the precious metal (silver, gold, platinum). No, we where not rich, my mother was a stay at home mom. My dear Mother was taking care of 12 children.
The stones in the fish tank where of no value with out the precious metals.
This is where you have to invest these days. Here is what we are speaking about. Example, you take a paper dollar bill and hold on to it for a few years. Then you take a silver dollar and hold on to that for a few years. After 7 years how much is the paper dollar Bill worth? (One dollar) Now you take the silver dollar out at the same time and what is that worth? Well its worth more then a dollar because of the precious metal it was made from.
So here is the idea, invest in yourself and future with some precious metals in your portfolio and you will be able to retire earlier then you thought. I have an example for you. I have a 1898 penny and this penny has been in circulation. Right now, today the penny is worth 14.50 you can not beat that. Now if I took a silver dollar that has never been in circulation the return on that dollar would be more because the only hands that have touched it where mine.
The next time you want to invest in something. Remember the fish tank story and the jewels. The value of the dollar is going down every day as you see on the news. Its time you turn the paper currency into coin currency so when the paper is worth nothing you have your coins (precious metals)To fall back on. You need to have some silver,gold,and coins in your portfolio the way the present dollar is falling.
