This case report examines the impact of a single session of functional neurology on a 35-year-old female patient diagnosed with lactose intolerance. The patient presented with severe gastrointestinal symptoms, including frequent diarrhea, bloating, and vomiting upon dairy consumption. The intervention aimed to reset dysfunctional neurological programs believed to contribute to her condition. The study utilized a standardized lactose intolerance breath test to measure the hydrogen and methane levels at various intervals before and after treatment. Post-treatment results showed symptomatic relief with the patient reporting normalized bowel movements and the absence of previous symptoms. Despite these improvements, the biochemical markers at higher time points (150 and 175 min) post-treatment remained similar to the pre-treatment values, indicating persistent lactose malabsorption and highlighting the variability of hydrogen measurements. This case report suggests that a single session of functional neurology can significantly alleviate the symptoms of lactose intolerance. However, the preliminary nature of these results underscores the need for further research involving larger sample sizes and long-term follow-up to fully understand the treatment's efficacy and underlying mechanisms.
本病例报告探讨了单次功能性神经学治疗对一名被诊断为乳糖不耐受的35岁女性患者的影响。该患者出现严重的胃肠道症状,包括食用乳制品后频繁腹泻、腹胀和呕吐。该干预旨在重置被认为导致其病情的功能失调的神经程序。该研究使用标准化的乳糖不耐受呼气试验来测量治疗前后不同时间间隔的氢气和甲烷水平。治疗后的结果显示症状缓解,患者报告排便正常且先前症状消失。尽管有这些改善,但治疗后较高时间点(150和175分钟)的生化标志物仍与治疗前值相似,表明乳糖吸收不良持续存在,并突出了氢气测量的变异性。本病例报告表明,单次功能性神经学治疗可显著缓解乳糖不耐受症状。然而,这些结果的初步性质强调了需要进行进一步研究,涉及更大样本量和长期随访,以充分了解该治疗的疗效和潜在机制。
