When salivary glands don’t produce enough saliva it can lead to dry mouth and if it persists it can affect chewing, swallowing and even talking.

In some cases it can lead to an infection and also increase the chances of tooth decay.

Some of the causes of Dry Mouth:

1. Some medications such as pain killers, blood pressure medicine, antihistamines, asthma medications, diuretics etc. can cause dry mouth. Always consult your doctor before stopping any medication.
   
2. Radiation Therapy for oral cancer.
   
3. Chemotherapy.
   
4. Head and neck injuries may lead to dry mouth due to any damage to the nerves.
   
5. Sjogren’s Syndrome which can affect tear glands and salivary glands leading to dry eyes and dry mouth. Older women are particularly susceptible and may suffer from swollen glands etc.
   
6. Diabetics may suffer from this syndrome due to their disease or their medication.
   
7. Smoking may not cause it directly but can definitely aggravate this condition.
   
8. Dehydration – which can have many causes.

A study suggests that due to higher levels of the stress hormone cortisol women who are usually of slender build can become vulnerable to extra abdominal fat.

During anxious times people can also tend to overeat, due to increased levels of insulin which can cause cravings for sugary and fatty foods.

At stressful times many of us indulge in comfort eating which can lead to weight-gain. Having extra bally fat can lead to heart disease, high blood pressure, stroke and diabetes.

Dr Bhatti deals with this condition with Natural Hormonal and Glandular support in order to reduce cortisol levels by reducing stress.

Coeliac Disease, also known as Gluten Sensitive Enteropathy or Sprue, is an immune reaction to gluten which is a protein found in wheat, barley and rye.

Due to an immune response in people with this condition the lining of the small intestine can be damaged and can affect absorption of nutrients. Other symptoms can include fatigue, bloating, loss of weight, diarrhoea and anaemia, if not treated sometimes it can lead to serious complications. In some cases, Coeliac Disease can go undiagnosed for years.

CAUSES:
Precise causes are unknown but scientists believe genes play a major role and other factors may include:

• Bowel infections
• Candida or Gut Bacteria Dysbiosis
• Infant feeding practices
• Stress – sometimes this disease can become active for the first time after severe emotional stress and trauma such as an accident, childbirth, viral infection, bereavement, relationship breakdown or any other traumatic event or severe emotional stress.

1. Crohn’s Disease – characterised by inflammation anywhere in the digestive tract, also it can involve all the layers of the lining of the bowel. There are often healthy parts of bowel in between the inflammation.
2. Ulcerative Colitis – characterised by inflammation and sores or ulcers in the innermost lining of the large intestine (colon) and rectum.

Both conditions have some common symptoms such as abdominal pain, cramps, diarrhoea, loss of appetite, fatigue, fever, weight loss and blood in stools.
Common conventional treatments:
