Both of these diseases affect people badly by causing; internal bleeding in the abdomen which can be fatal, as well as headaches, stomach cramps and constipation followed by severe diarrhoea.
Another disease soldiers caught during World War 1 is dysentery. Dysentery is an infection of the intestines marked by severe diarrhoea, caused by poor water supply, water cleanliness and no proper toilets for the soldiers to use. Dirty drinking water caused a lot of problems during World War 1, mainly because it contains all sorts of illnesses and diseases, which once you have in your system, cause you to get ill.

This is where you get an infection of the mouth, caused by poor oral hygiene and lack of important vitamins, due to a poor diet, smoking, tooth or mouth infections and stress.
Kidneys: A wide range of kidney diseases can occur in Alagille syndrome. The kidneys can also have decreased function. (1,3) [pic] One of the major elements of Alagille disease is malfunctions to the liver. Liver damage can be caused by abnormalities in the bile ducts. Bile ducts carry bile from the liver to the gallbladder, and bile is what helps to digest fats.These bile ducts may be limited and tight, so the bile gets trapped and will build up inside the bile ducts which prevent the liver from working to its best ability (1,3).
Smoking: * Causes the platelets in your blood to clump together easily by making your blood cells more "sticky" and more likely to form clots. Clumping platelets can then block your coronary arteries and cause a heart attack. * Can cause spasms in your coronary arteries, which can reduce the blood flow to your heart in a way similar to that of atherosclerosis. * Can trigger irregular heartbeats (arrhythmias). * Lowers "good" cholesterol (high-density lipoprotein, or HDL).
GERD occurs when the LES is weak or faultily relaxes, which leads to the stomach contents to backflow up (Lister, n.d.). The reflux of acid results in irritation and/or inflammation of the esophagus creating heartburn, the first sign and symptom of GERD and the most common digestive condition experienced in adults. When a patient experiences symptoms of heartburn and acid reflux more than twice a week a doctor is more then likely to diagnose this as GERD. Other leading symptoms of GERD include nausea and regurgitation (backflow), followed by less common symptoms such as hoarseness of the voice, laryngitis, dry cough, asthma, chest pain/discomfort, and bad breath (National Digestive Diseases, n.d.). How Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease Develops GERD may be developed by anyone at any age.
Leads to bad breath after drinking soda 2. Can lead to toxins from prolonged fermentation a. toxins then can be absorbed into the intestines and then into the blood stream causing multiple diseases. C. Soda has a horrible pH amount. 1. pH is a measure of acidity in a solution. The pH scale ranges from 0(most acidic) to 14.
It is like a cavity. It is a natural bacterium that lives in your mouth and forms plaque. The plaque interacts with deposits left on your teeth from sugary and starchy foods and produces acid. These acid damage teeth enamel over time by dissolving, or dematerializing enamel, which weakens the teeth and leads to tooth decay. It starts off as a little white spot and if you do not treat it right away or within 30 days it could get worst and it will turn into a cavity.
This is mainly due to the premature opening of the lower esophageal sphincter between the esophagus and the stomach. Consequently, there is a backward flow of the gastric acid into the esophagus causing the unpleasant burning symptoms experienced by many individuals. This condition is also referred to as gastroesophageal reflux disease or GERD. The ailment is treated with over- the- counter antacids or nonprescription strength
While some are condemning traditional bottled water, some are busy purchasing alkaline water machines. From personal experiences and from observation of others it is no secret that many people have too much acid in their body, which results in many diseases and ailments. Bad Diets: fried food, soft drinks, sucrose and other sugars build up acid salts in the body. Stress both psychological and physiological, can also form acid deposits in the body. It is said that the body uses the circulatory system to dispose of wastes; these are removed in liquid form, and are often deposited in the lungs and kidneys.
