What is Lifestyle Induced Dysbiosis Syndrome
(L.I.D.S.)
Dr. Jay Dhawan is the founder of the concept
Lifestyle Induced Dysbiosis Syndrome
(LIDS)
LIFESTYLE - THE WAY OF LIFE THAT IS TYPICAL OF A PERSON, GROUP OR CULTURE

INDUCED - TO CAUSE OR BRING ABOUT A PHYSICAL CONDITION

DYSBIOSIS - AN IMBALANCE OF HARMFUL VERSUS  FRIENDLY BACTERIA IN THE INTESTINES


SYNDROME - A GROUP OF SYMPTOMS THAT ARE CHARACTERISTIC OF A SPECIFIC DISEASE

Dr. Alene Christiano states that, "Lifestyle Induced Dysbiosis Syndrome
(LIDS) is a set of symptoms or effects that are triggered when the number of
beneficial bacteria decrease enough to alter the pH balance of the digestive
tract.  This imbalance of the gut microflora first sets of an imbalance in the
digestive system, which affects the homeostasis in every system in your
body.  A system out of balance is a system that is not operating at its best."
