24.01.2022 Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is an umbrella term used to describe conditions which that involve chronic inflammation of the digestive tract. Types of IBD include: * Ulcerative Colitis : This condition causes long-lasting inflammation and sores (ulcers) in the innermost lining of your large intestine (colon) and rectum. *Crohn's Disease: This type of IBD is characterised by inflammation of the lining of the digestive tract, which often spreads deep into affected tissues.... Symptoms of IBD include: diarrhea, fever and fatigue, abdominal pain and cramping, blood in stool, reduced appetite, unintended weight loss. We encourage you to see your doctor if you experience a persistent change in your bowel habits or if you have any of the signs and symptoms of inflammatory bowel disease.

20.01.2022 Have you heard of GluteGuard? Its active ingredient can help reduce the symptoms of gluten ingestion for people who suffer from diagnosed gluten sensitivity. It shouldn't be used in place of a gluten free diet, but used in conjunction with it - for example when dining out or if there is some uncertainty in food preparation. If you'd like to purchase some GluteGuard, head to our eStore: https://store.segsydney.com.au/collec//products/gluteguard

16.01.2022 This May is Crohn's and Colitis awareness month! We want to know- how do you manage Inflammatory Bowel Disease (Ulcerative Colitis or Crohn’s Disease) flare ups? Do you restrict your diet in an effort to manage symptoms? A common misconception is that diet causes IBD, however this isn’t the case. The best approach is to consult with your gastroenterologist and to eat a nutrient-rich variety of whole foods to reduce the risk of malnutrition that is associated with both conditions. Enjoy a variety of vegetables, fruit, fish, poultry, soluble fibre (oats, psyllium, legumes), and healthy fats (olive oil, nut/ seed butter), and include insoluble fibre (whole-wheat bread, pasta, brown rice), dairy and nuts/ seeds as tolerated.

10.01.2022 This June is Bowel Cancer Awareness Month. Did you know that bowel cancer is Australia's second biggest cancer killer?! BUT if detected early, bowel cancer can be successfully treated in more than 90% of cases. The National Bowel Cancer Screening Program is an Australian Government initiative that sends out free bowel cancer screening tests to eligible Australians aged 5074 every two years. Bowel cancer screening can detect cancers at an earlier stage when treatment can be m...ore successful. So do the test. It's free, painless and could save your life.

07.01.2022 Have you heard of Berberine? Berberine is a compound that can be extracted from several different plants. It is typically yellow in colour and one of its sources is tumeric. It has a long history of use in traditional Chinese medicine to help lower blood sugar levels. More recently, a study out of The Lancet showed that taking 300mg Berberine (03 g) twice a day was a safe and effective way to reduce the risk of recurring of colonic polyps ....
