Is there such a thing as pooping too much?
Judging by the sea of laxatives that can easily be found on the shelves of every pharmacy in the world, I think it’s safe to say that constipation is a common digestive issue. Whether it’s chronic and ongoing or occasional, most people at one time or another have needed a little assistance in getting Nature to call. But what about if you are the complete opposite of that? In other words, is it possible...
8 Signs you have leaky gut (and how to heal it)
Hippocrates, the Father of Modern Medicine, once said about 2,000 years ago, “All disease begins in the gut.” He was right on. When you consider all that, your gut does for you, it’s easy to see why Hippocrates zeroed in on it as the hot spot of health (or lack thereof). Your gallant gut: Houses 80 percent of your immune system Breaks down your foods so that you can use them for nourishment Absorbs...
You may have this “silent” condition and not even know it
Most times when something is awry in our bodies, we get pretty obvious hints. This is especially true of acid reflux (aka GERD) because most people with the condition experience heartburn on a very regular basis, along with burping, belching, post-nasal drip and in extreme cases, neck pain, and even heart palpitations! But there is another sneakier kind of reflux that doesn’t typically manifest itself as a burning chest or chronic belching. As a...
Acid reflux? Heartburn? This is better than deadly drugs!
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs)—such as Nexium, Prilosec and Prevacid—are the gold standard treatment for a variety of digestive issues including acid reflux, GERD, indigestion, heartburn, and ulcers. With annual sales of over $13 billion, the drug companies certainly want to maintain that status and keep cranking out those purple pills. PPIs “work” (and I use that term loosely) by raising your stomach’s pH and shutting down its acid production. With less acid in...
Got gas? This could be why
I wouldn’t be exaggerating if I said that virtually 100 percent of my clients report at least occasional gas and bloating…and probably at least half suffer from painful beach-ball belly on a regular basis. What makes this difficult is that there is a multitude of possible reasons why flatulence is your friend and bloating is your buddy…so getting to the bottom of it can be tricky. Conditions that can cause chronic gas and bloating...
This disease didn’t exist 100 years ago—now it’s exploding!
If you are an adult living in in the US or a similar “Westernized” country, chances are good you already have or soon will develop a sly, silent and rather common disease. This condition quietly progresses and waits like a spider…then when it rears its ugly head, you quickly find yourself flat on your back (or in surgery). I’m talking about diverticulosis. Here’s what you need to know about this “silent” condition that is...
