Digestive Tract Sensitivity
Digestive tract sensitivity is a typical complaint which can be directly caused by conscious or subconscious emotional stresses. Many common chronic stomach and intestinal problems are usually indicators of some sort of repressed emotional issues. The subconscious mind often uses these patterned pain syndromes to distract the conscious mind from these sensitive hidden emotions.
Back pain patients
statistically have a high occurrence of both simultaneous and
substitution
stomach pain symptoms. Although almost everyone knows that conscious stressors can cause an upset stomach, very few people consider the possibility that chronic gastrointestinal concerns are actually rooted in emotional sensitivities and conflicts which have been buried deeply in the subconscious mind.

Digestive Tract Sensitivity Causes
Occasionally, these symptoms are created by some actual physical disease process or structural defect. IT IS IMPORTANT TO GO TO A QUALIFIED DOCTOR FOR ANY UNEXPLAINED PAIN. However, in cases where no underlying physical factor is definitive, many of the stomach and intestinal pain syndromes are directly related to repressed emotional stress.
Chronic pain
symptoms are a daily occurrence for many patients. Their agony is idiopathic and is in effect at all times. In other patients, these
psychological pain syndromes
are triggered by specific occurrences, such as ingestion of a particular food. Even though the
trigger
is an actual physical event, the pain can still be psychogenic. Basically the subconscious has convinced the conscious mind that that specific event or activity will create the expected symptoms. This is an example of the internal
nocebo effect,
also known as self suggestion, programming or conditioning.
Recommendation on Digestive Tract Sensitivity
I suffered from a variety of digestive tract disorders for most of my life. I remember some symptoms going back to my childhood and many still endure, on rare occasion, to this day. My biggest digestive complaint used to be my nonsensical sensitivity to foods that I ate regularly. I could eat the same exact food 4 times a week, and half the time, it would make me ill. It defied logic and also a variety of allergy tests…I endured digestive disorders throughout my back pain experience. For decades, I suffered with alternating back pain and stomach discomfort. When one was particularly acute, the other would improve or disappear completely. Looking back, I realize that my back and stomach pain were substitute symptoms both trying to achieve the same distractive goal.
Knowledge therapy
has been useful in helping to relieve the physical and psychological symptoms associated with both types of suffering in my case. However, the knowledge therapy process had longer lasting results with my intestinal sensitivities than for my back ache, which eventually returned with terrible fury. Since my stomach problems disappeared almost completely. I can now eat ANYTHING and EVERYTHING with no problems. Actually, I found out that once the psychological imperative was gone, I have an iron stomach. I have really branched out in my culinary tastes since then and have enjoyed my world travels more than ever. Based on my own experiences, as well as the many stories you have sent me, I can say that using knowledge therapy is one of the most effective treatments for ongoing gastrointestinal issues without the burden of any side effects or health risks whatsoever…
