Physical health is most affected when a gastrointestinal (GI) disorder is chronic and intensive. Eventually, weight loss and nutrient deficiencies pose health risks in addition to the primary disorder. Intellectual health is tested as the patient tries to find food combinations and textures that are aesthetically pleasing. Some disorders require constant vigilance to restrict inadvertent consumption of problematic foods (e.g., gluten in celiac disease). Emotional health is taxed when patients struggle with acceptance of their dietary or physical limitations. Poorly managed symptoms diminish psychological well-being and overall quality of life. Social health strategies are needed to help patients handle the personal ramifications of colostomies, dumping syndrome, and other disorders. Spiritual health can be enhanced through yoga and meditation, which are tied to mind and body wellness.
