Vitamin D deficiency, the cause of Restless Bowel Syndrome
According to a study, most people with Restless Bowel Syndrome (IBS) have vitamin D deficiency.
The study, which sheds light on the discomfort affecting nearly one in ten people in the industrialized world, says that vitamin D supplements should be established throughout the country for those suffering from restless bowel syndrome.
Recurrent restless bowel syndrome, which has a great social impact, causes both the symptoms of the direct illness and indirect diseases and the burden of health care due to the time stolen from work. The direct cost of restless bowel syndrome is estimated at $ 8 billion (7.44 billion euros) and indirectly $ 25 billion (23.27 billion euros) annually.
In the study of Sheffield University researchers, 51 people with restless bowel syndrome were found to have vitamin D deficiency in 81.8% of people with constipation, 70% of those with diarrhea and 81.6% of those with diarrhea and constipation. Researchers point out that these rates are quite high.
Here are the results
Scientists at the University of Sheffield conducted a double-blind, randomized trial to assess whether vitamin D supplementation was beneficial to people experiencing restless bowel syndrome. Participants who completed a questionnaire on the symptoms of restless bowel syndrome initially gave a blood sample to record vitamin D levels.
Participants were randomly given either vitamin D and probiotic, or only vitamin D or placebo, and were asked to report biweekly for 12 weeks. At the end of the study, when the vitamin D levels were measured again, it was seen that the vitamin D levels of all the people taking the supplements given for 12 weeks increased.
25% to 87.5% of the vitamin D level of the group receiving vitamin D and probiotic together, 22.2% to 92.3% of the vitamin D level of the group receiving vitamin D alone, and finally vitamin D of the placebo group levels increased from 18.5% to 60%.
Vitamin D supplement
Vitamin D supplementation is also supported by other studies linking vitamin D deficiency and inflammatory bowel disease. In a recently described study, it was reported that there was a relationship between vitamin D and low blood pressure and that vitamin D reduces the risk of heart and kidney disease.
According to the study evaluating data from 37 patients with restless bowel syndrome, 70% of patients with restless bowel syndrome who received high amounts of vitamin D supplements decreased their complaints.
