Some, and perhaps many, gut bacteria are electrical.They emit electric charges in our guts. Bad bacteria can interfere with out nervous system and that result in all over muscle pain and problems with brain activity, etc. Over the next decades, you will see a new medical focus on the electrical nature of bacteria and the relationship between bacteria and diseases that involve the nervous system. These new bacteria are resistant to almost all antibiotics. Farms feed antibiotics to their animals and so the bugs born n this environment are already immune.Bacteria conduct electricity. The signals of these electrical impulses are very similar to the way our nerve cells transmit data. So a colony of bad bacteria in the gut can interfere with the secondary nervous system which travels alongside the gastrointestinal lining.

This controls breathing, heart rate, digestion, and more. When we sleep this secondary nervous system becomes more dominant and if it is compromised we will have horrible sleep, our bodily functions will be erratic and we can experience constipation, heart palpitations and "brain fog".

A stock tip for the future...invest in companies that manufacture and sell sugar alcohols. Sugar alcohols kill bacteria. They are the cheapest and most effective antibiotic available. They are already classified as a dentrifice by the FDA, because tooth decay is caused by bacteria in the mouth. Whenever I travel to someplace where the food or water might be compromised I bring along some sugar free candy with sugar alcohols. Mixing the two in your gut diminishes and kills many nasties that might be present. Sugar alcohols can't be absorbed into the bloodstream and stay in the gut where they kill bacteria -and also act as laxative. ;)

Doctors know little or nothing about this, yet. It's cutting edge. Bleeding edge actually. ;D So you're getting a sneak peak into the future.

If your friend has weird muscle cramps in his jaw, shoulders and is experiencing bouts of numbness or desensitized spots, if he feels worse after a bowel movement than before - all these could be signs of a bacterial gastrointestinal infection that is causing the trouble.

I tend to think if it were chemical exposure, it wouldn't last this long as the body expelled it. And if the imbibed toxin was permanently embedded in tissues it wouldn't appear as erratic. So I tend to think it is a living organism that is to blame. One that can survive long term inside it's victims - like a gut that has been colonized by a new bacteria.
