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."
