Ablene offers nutritional help for Crohn's Disease
Ablene
was formulated to replenish the exact nutrients that Crohn's tends to
deplete. Although Ablene is not intended to treat or cure any disease,
this supplement can be extremely important for anyone who is
experiencing Crohn's.
Crohn's
disease is a chronic disorder of the digestive or gastrointestinal (GI)
tract. Although it predominately affects the lower regions of the small
intestine and first part of the large intestines, Crohn's can occur and
affect any part of the digestive tract, from mouth to anus. Crohn's is
categorized as an Inflammatory Bowel Disease, or IBD, and is marked by
ongoing inflammation and ulcerations (breaks in the lining) within the
digestive system. Diagnosing and treating Crohn's disease often proves
difficult as the direct cause of this condition remains unknown. Today,
Crohn's disease affects more than 500,000 people in America alone.
Scientists
have yet to discover the exact cause of this disease. Many researchers
speculate that Crohn's is caused by a complex interaction of factors,
most notably genetic predisposition, abnormal immune system response,
and environmental influence. Theories about the causes of Crohn's
disease abound, but none have been proven.
The signs
and symptoms of Crohn's vary from person to person, and are dependant
upon the severity, extent, and location of inflammation. Pain and
discomfort levels range from mild to severe. The hallmark symptoms of
Crohn's include;
Persistent
Diarrhea, Abdominal Pain, Nausea and Vomiting, Fever, Floating Stools
(due to poor digestion of fats), Rectal Bleeding, Fatigue, Loss of
Appetite and Weight Loss.
In addition,
Crohn's may affect other areas of the body such as the eyes, liver,
joints, and skin, as disease-induced complications are not solely
confined to the GI tract. Symptoms primarily result from a "flare-up,"
or an active period of the condition. These episodes are usually
followed by periods of remission, where patients return to an
asymptomatic, or normal, health status.
If the
symptoms of Crohn's are not controlled, a vast array of complications
may arise. The most common complication is intestinal blockage, which
results from both the frequent swelling and formation of scar tissue
along the intestinal wall. Ulcers and sores along the digestive tract
are another primary concern. Approximately 30% of Crohn's sufferers
will develop tracts, or fistulas, as a result of such ulcers. Fistulas
may affect surrounding tissues other than the intestines
(extra-intestinal) and may result in further complication to areas
including the bladder, skin, or genitalia. Nutritional complications
are equally common. The damage and inflammation to the intestinal tract
causes malabsorption of key macro and micronutrients (i.e. proteins,
fats, carbs, vitamins, and minerals) and strictly inhibits caloric
intake.
As there is
no cure for Crohn's disease, the primary goal of treatment is to
suppress and/or control the body's natural inflammatory response. This
is usually accomplished by using a combination approach; namely
nutritional supplementation, lifestyle modification, addressing dietary
concerns, and by employing prescription drug treatments.
Ablene
initiates a natural replenishment process by re-supplying the body with
specific nutrients that have been robbed by the disease and are lacking
from diet. In effect, supplementation with Ablene eliminates the
potential for deficiency and reduces symptoms during the active periods
of Crohn's; thereby promoting the body's natural healing process.
How Can Ablene Help in Your Management of Crohn's?
Studies show
that the majority of individuals with Crohn's disease suffer from
extremely low levels of vitamins and minerals, especially vitamins A,
B, D, and E. Moreover, prescription medications used to treat this
condition further deplete the body of specific nutrients needed to
combat the most troublesome symptoms. Ablene has been designed to
improve the quality of life in all Crohn's patients by addressing these
nutritional concerns. Ablene effectively replenishes lost nutrients
while suppressing inflammatory response with its unique inclusion of
traditional herbs, key vitamins and minerals, and amino acids like
L-Glutamine; helping to induce and maintain remissions regardless of
disease severity.
