Mouth ulcers [ Aphthous Stomatitis ] use to play a big part in my life

always having a sore mouth, not being able to eat without being in pain , not to mention the pressure it puts on the relationship from being in pain 24/7, don’t know about you, but it made me very short tempered and tired all the time.

 Hi my name is Christian and this is my story of how I got rid of mouth ulcers from my life. It all use to start with the slightest knock with the tooth brush, a sharp snack, a bitten check and hey presto a mouth ulcer a day or two latter .Well enough is enough I can’t go on like this being grumpy and moody all the time, so I decided to do something about it, I’m not saying this will work for all of you sufferers out there but if it helps a few it’s worth writing this.Most people agree that an aggravated immune system contributes to a large part in getting mouth ulcers .As your body will attack its self if under stress  all the time, so this is where I started to look at  ,what I was eating an if a underlying allergy was keeping my immune system in a frenzy .

The main food groups that would give me grief were

• TOMATOES
• PEPPERS
• POTATOES

 Every time I would eat tomatoes I would get a red mark around my mouth but in eve really thought anything of it until I did some research on tomatoes and found out they are part of  the Nightshade family, containing a bitter poisonous alkaloid called "Solanine".
Solanine is toxic, but it requires a concentrated amount to induce sickness but in my case not so much and tomatoes are in sooooo many thing from prawn sauce to my biggest weakness ketchup , but if this is to work you have to cut out the lot even down to giving up smoking and tobacco is part of the same genus .

So no more

 Potato chips, Chilli, Ketchup, Prawn sauce, Curries, Jalapenos, French fries, Paprika.

The list goes on and on but don’t get too dishearten as you will be able to reintroduce them back into your diet latter on slowly.

 Now the second stage, why did I become so allergic to these foods in the first place as when I was younger I never got ulcers so more research and the next culprit was tonsillitis well not tonsillitis its self but why I kept getting it  and what was used to cure it ANTIBIOTICS .

 Antibiotics do not discriminate between what bacteria the kill so by all you good bacteria in your stomach and if this is not replaced by good bacteria then bad bacteria take its place and upset your immune system, these harmful bacteria are known as pathogenic bacteria.

 They can be responsible for all sorts of aliments as your stomach is the first line of defence .My problem was leaky gut syndrome because my gut had to many pathogenic bacteria it was attacking my intestinal wall letting more of Solanine in to my blood stream triggering my immune system into a allergic responses, thus  mouth ulcers and also a really bloated felling and tired all the time.
