Today's Health Awareness Tip 1190: A Hidden "Connection" to our LES

So, for the past week and a half . . . we've been talking about "Antacids" . . . "stomach acid" . . . and our "lower esophageal sphincter" (LES)

We've discovered that our GI health is an important factor in this equation of "fixing" our "acid reflux", heartburn, indigestion and belching . . .

And then we spoke of ways we can get some "relief" . . .

But . . . there's another factor and "connection" . . . that NO ONE talks about.

And that would be the "connection" between our LES and our "sinuses"!!!

You see . . . "IF" . . . you have an LES issue . . . then you MOST LIKELY have "sinus" problems also like . . .

"CHRONIC SINUSITIS"

"CHRONIC RHINOSINUSITIS" (CRS)

"NOSE POLYPS"

Or even just a minor "constant sniffing"

You know . . . "post nasal drip" goin' on . . .

So, what causes this "connection"???

Well . . . remember we spoke of the bacteria called . . . H. pylori . . . being the bacteria that causes the "lower esophageal sphincter" (LES) to lose its elasticity???

Which in turn . . . allows "acid" and this bacteria to "back up" into the esophagus causing "acid reflux" and more???

Well . . . when H. pylori gets into our throat and sinuses . . . it can cause the issues I listed above . . .

And studies have shown that H. pylori DNA is found in Sino-nasal mucosa and nasal polyps of patients with chronic sinusitis . . . and . . . chronic rhinosinusitis.

So, in theory . . . "IF" . . . you fix one . . . you'll fix the other.

So, how does this work you ask???

Well . . . the whole "back up" process of stomach acid causes "inflammation" . . . which causes "swelling" of the throat and nose "membranes" . . .

Which blocks and prevents normal drainage of the "sinuses".

And this "trapped" mucus creates a breeding ground for bacteria (like H. pylori) . . . increasing the risk of "sinus infections".

And the surprising part is this . . . many people that have "sinus issues" . . . don't have symptoms of "acid reflux" . . .

Why you ask???

Well . . . remember this past week I told you that we can also have "SILENT REFLUX" . . . and NOT KNOW we have an LES issue.

So, "IF" you have a stuffed up nose . . . that doesn't go away when you try to blow it . . . or NOTHING comes out when you blow it . . .

This my friends . . . is a "lower esophageal sphincter" issue . . . along with a GI issue!!!

So, if you'd like to know what "natural" remedies I've found for this illness . . . through all my years of research . . .

DM me for that info.

Now . . . I'll be taking the next few weeks off to be with family and friends for the Holidays . . .

But . . . I'll be back on January 5th 2026 . . . with more IMPORTANT information for you and your health.

So, PLEASE be safe and healthy over this holiday season . . . and remember to be "mindful" in your world.

AND . . . the COTTAGE FOOD STAND . . . WILL . . . BE OPEN OVER THE HOLIDAYS FOR YOUR FESTIVE NEEDS!!!

Have a very MERRY CHRISTMAS and a safe and healthy NEW YEAR!!!

Today's Health Awareness Tip 1189: Fixing our "LES" Lower Esophageal Sphincter . . .

So, we now know . . . to STOP our "acid reflux" and digestive issues . . .

"ANTACIDS" and "PROTON PUMP INHIBITORS" . . .

Are NOT the answer . . .

So . . . what is???

Well . . . that would be . . . "HEALING" our LES (lower esophageal sphincter) . . . by KILLING the bacteria overgrowth that started this ball rolling in the first place.

And what "bad" bacteria was that???

Well . . . that would be the bacteria called . . . "H. pylori".

Now . . . we would also have to do things for a time such as . . .

Avoiding trigger foods like . . . fatty, spicy, acidic or caffeinated beverages

Elevating the head of your bed (use a wedge pillow) to help prevent stomach acid from flowing back up while sleeping

Avoiding lying down immediately after eating . . . wait at least 2-3 hours before lying down

Losing weight if overweight or obese to take the pressure off the LES

Quit smoking because this weakens the LES

Eliminate alcohol intake . . . again this relaxes the LES

and Eating smaller meals to reduce pressure on the LES

Now . . . the healing process of the LES . . . may take 6 to 8 weeks . . . but, it "IS" doable!

Okay . . . so, again . . . as with sooooooo many other health issues we have in today's world . . .

There isn't a lot of research that's been done on the direct effect of the bacteria called . . . "H. pylori" on the "lower esophageal sphincter (LES)

So, let's do our own . . . and "connect" the dots . . .

"H. pylori . . . is a bacteria that is typically "transmitted" through PERSON-to-PERSON contact . . .

Meaning through . . .

Saliva . . . kissing or sharing utensils with an infected person

F***s . . . contaminated food or water

Stomach content . . . vomiting or regurgitation.

Animal contact . . . infected animals like dogs and cats

Environmental factors . . . like contaminated soil or water

And this bacteria called "H. pylori" . . . can cause stomach issues like . . . gastritis, ulcers, stomach cancer . . . and even . . .

"Hiatal hernias" . . .

You see . . . a H. pylori infection can cause "inflammation" in the stomach lining . . . which can "weaken" the muscles.

The Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology found that people with H. pylori infection were MORE likely to have a "hiatal hernia".

And that . . . treating the H. pylori infection with antibiotics . . . improved symptoms of the "hiatal hernia".

Now . . . as I said the other day . . . an H. pylori infection in the stomach causes "inflammation" in the stomach "lining" . . . which can weaken the muscles that support the "LOWER ESOPHAGEAL SPHINCTER" (LES).

Which as we now know . . . is the reason we have stomach acid that FLOWS BACK into the ESOPHAGUS!!!

So, moral to this story . . .

"IF" . . . you have "acid reflux" . . . DON'T LIVE ON . . . ANTACIDS . . . or . . . PROTON PUMPS INHIBITORS . . .

Get tested for "H. pylori" . . . the REAL cause to our discomfort!!!

Today's Health Awareness Tip 1188: Stop taking "Antacids"!

So, the question for today is this . . . do you know what happens to the body . . . "IF" . . . you take "ANTACIDS" all the time . . . or for . . . TOO LONG???

Well . . . this can lead to "common" side effects . . . and/or . . . "severe" risks to ones health!!!

With "common" side effects being . . .

An "electrolyte imbalance" . . . causing muscle weakness or cramps . . . confusion or disorientation . . . irregular heartbeat . . . nausea and vomiting . . . diarrhea . . . fatigue . . . bone pain . . . and eating disorders

"Constipation" . . . caused by "antacids" containing calcium and aluminum

"Diarrhea" . . . caused by "antacids" containing magnesium

And "serious risk" factors for LONG TERM USE are . . .

"Nutrient deficiencies" . . . "antacids" interfere with the body's ability to "absorb" nutrients like . . . B12, D, calcium and magnesium . . . leading to fatigue and "osteoporosis"

"Kidney issues" . . . "antacids" that contain "calcium" . . . cause HIGH calcium levels in the body leading to "kidney stones" . . . or kidney damage over time . . . and the ones that contain "aluminum" . . . can build up in the body becoming TOXIC

"Bone health" . . . taking "antacids" . . . cause "poor" absorption of calcium and vitamin D which increases the risk of "bone fractures"

And "IF" that's not bad enough . . .

Long-term use of "PROTON PUMP INHIBITORS" . . .

Which are powerful "synthetic medications" that drastically REDUCE stomach acid . . . by "BLOCKING" the body's natural enzyme called . . . Hydrogen-Potassium Adenosine Triphosphatase

You see . . . this enzyme is produced in the stomach wall lining and is "responsible" for "producing" the stomach's acid.

And NOW with this "low" acid production . . . it will "INCREASE" the risk of "bad" bacterial infections . . . especially . . . H. pylori!!!!!

Which long term . . . can lead to "esophagus" and/or "stomach" CANCER!!!

And then add to that . . . studies show . . . "Proton Pump Inhibitors" . . . AND/OR . . . long-term use of "ANTIACIDS" . . .

Have been LINKED to . . . "DEMENTIA"!!!

So . . . the answer to getting rid of "acid reflux" . . . heartburn , , , indigestion . . . belching, etc. . . .

IS NOT . . . taking "ANTACIDS" . . . OR . . . "PROTON PUMP INHIBITORS" . . .

It's about . . .

Correcting our pH level of stomach acid . . . back in the 1.5 - 3.5 range

And getting rid of the "bad" bacterial overgrow and infection in the stomach and "lower esophageal sphincter" (LES) . . .

THE ONE . . . YOU DIDN'T EVEN KNOW YOU HAVE FESTERING.

But, unfortunately . . . Conventional medicine . . . ISN'T going to tell us this information . . . because they're making too much money off us buying "ANTACIDS" . . . and "PROTON PUMP INHIBITORS".

So tomorrow . . . let's continue to figure this out . . . on an Alternative level.

Today's Health Awareness Tip 1187: A "Chain Reaction" to "Acid Reflux" . . .

Okay my friends . . .

So, this is a LISTEN UP kind of day . . .

Yesterday . . . we recapped the function of our "stomach acid" . . . and the part "ANTACIDS" play in DISRUPTING that normal function.

So, let's move on . . .

Now, as we know . . . the "reason" we THINK we need "antacids" is due to issues like "acid reflux" . . . thinking we have TOO much . . . and TOO HOT . . . stomach acid goin' on . . .

BUT . . . the REAL issue is this . . .

The Heartburn Cancer Center in the UK states . . .

"The most common cause of acid reflux include delayed stomach emptying, hiatus hernia, and EXCESSIVE SPHINCTER RELAXATION with poor esophageal motility."

You see . . . there's an little "rubber band-like" element that's called . . . the "lower esophageal sphincter" (LES) . . . that connects the esophagus to the stomach . . .

It's kind of like a "GATE-KEEPER"!!!

And this little "band" is what STOPS stomach acid from backing up in the esophagus causing "acid reflux" and our upper GI issues.

Now . . . remember I said last week . . . that "IF" . . . the pH level of the stomach acid becomes TOO HIGH IN NUMBER . . . NOT HEAT . . .

Meaning above a 4.0 . . . this temperature is now "cooler" than the 1.5 to 3.5 the stomach acid is "supposed" to be at . . .

Which is caused by this Western diet and our lifestyle choices . . .

The stomach acid CAN NOT kill "bad" bacteria or pathogens from our food.

And when this happens . . . this "bacterial IMBALANCE" . . . will cause the "lower esophageal sphincter (LES) to RELAX EXCESSIVELY!!!!!

And BOOM . . . we now have upper GI issues like acid reflux, heartburn, belching, indigestion, etc.

And over time . . . this can now lead to "Barrett's esophagus".

So . . . IT'S REALLY . . . a "bacterial" OVERGROWTH . . . that's causing all our discomfort and health issues in this area of the body!!!

Okay . . . so where do "ANTACIDS" fit into all of this???

Well . . . one of the main reasons that we feel "relief" from taking "antacids" . . . is due to their ability to "stimulate" the release of the hormone called "gastrin" . . .

Which causes the "lower esophageal sphincter" (LES) to TIGHTEN . . .

Therefore . . . TEMPORARILY . . . stopping the "acid" from backing up into the esophagus.

Got it???

This is Conventional medicines . . . QUICK FIX . . .

BUT . . . NOT A "CURE" PEOPLE!!!

So, tomorrow . . . let's continue to figure out how to "increase" the pH of our stomach acid to KILL the bacteria that causing our "lower esophageal sphincter" to relax and cause all of our upper GI issues

Today's Health Awareness Tip 1186: Why "Antacids" are Slowly Killing us - continued

Good morning my friends . . .

So, I'm continuing this important topic of conversation . . . over the weekend and into early next week . . . because . . . this "silent killer" is affecting us ALL!!!

And I want to make sure you "get" . . . this "information!!!!

So, let's recap for a moment . . . because I know this is confusing!!!

Now, we discovered that the stomach needs to have a healthy "acidic" level between 1.5 and 3.5 on the pH balance scale . . . for optimal health.

Way below the "neutral" of 7 . . . our body, blood and saliva need to optimal health.

And therefore . . . giving it the ability to digest our food properly . . . and kill any bad bacteria or pathogens (like H. pylori) . . . that might have been on or in the food we consumed . . .

We've also discovered that this Western diet and our lifestyle choices . . . "RAISES" that "acidic" level ABOVE the normal 1.5 to 3.5 . . . causing our stomach acid to become more "alkaline" ABOVE the 3.5 . . . meaning 4.0 and/or above.

And with this . . . we experience symptom like . . .

Acid reflux

Heartburn

Belching

Indigestion

Esophagus issues

and even Sinus issues

Now . . . Conventional medicine prescribes . . . "ANTACIDS" to relieve the "burning" and discomfort of these symptoms.

BUT . . . the PROBLEM is this my friends . . .

When "stomach acid levels" . . . RISE to a higher pH level . . . meaning ABOVE 4.0 on the pH scale . . .

That "acid level" is NOT "HOTTER" . . . IT'S COOLER people!!!!

Conventional medicine . . . has it all WRONG!!!

ONLY a stomach "acid" range of 1.5 to 3.5 can KILL bacteria and pathogens!!!

And it's this "BAD" BACTERIA (H. pylori) . . . that actually causes the discomfort of the symptoms above.

Not the "actual" acid . . . per sa!

And with this . . . "stomach acid" . . . is NOW ALLOWED to back up into the esophagus causing . . . what we THINK are our issues.

You see . . . "IF" . . . stomach acid in the range of 1.5 to 3.5 . . . were "actually" pushed up into the esophagus . . . we wouldn't have an esophagus left.

It would "burn" it beyond repair!!!!

You see . . . the esophagus actually has a pH balance of "7" . . . neutral like the rest of the body.

So, why do "ANTACIDS" give us temporary relieve you ask???

Well . . . for one . . . "ANTACIDS" are a 8 to 10 on the pH scale . . . very "ALKALINE"!!!

Which is "way above" our normal, natural, HEALTHY neutral.

And with this . . . we will definitely get some "relief" . . .

But . . . AT WHAT PRICE???

Well tomorrow . . . we'll find that out!

Today's Health Awareness Tip 1185: The "Truth" about "Antacids"

So, we discovered this week . . . that the "stomach" needs to have a healthy "acidic" level between 1.5 and 3.5 on the pH balance scale . . . for optimal health.

And therefore . . . giving it the ability to digest our food proper . . . and kill any bad bacteria or pathogens (like H. pylori) . . . that might have been on or in the food we consumed.

And "if" you remember from our series about H. pylori . . . we can "even" get this bacteria from . . . kissing our partner or our pets . . .

We've also discovered that this Western diet and our lifestyle choices . . . "RAISES" that "acidic" level ABOVE the normal 1.5 to 3.5 . . . causing our stomach acid to become more "alkaline" ABOVE the 3.5 . . . meaning 4.0 and/or above.

And with this . . . we experience symptom like . . .

Acid reflux
Heartburn
Belching
Indigestion
Esophagus issues
and even Sinus issues

So, now . . . Conventional medicine prescribes . . . "ANTACIDS" to relieve the "burning" and discomfort of these symptoms.

BUT . . . the PROBLEM is this people . . .

When "stomach acid levels" . . . RISE to a higher pH level . . . meaning ABOVE 4.0 on the pH scale . . .

That "acid level" is NOT "HOTTER" . . . IT'S COOLER!!!!

And this NOW . . . ALLOWS . . . "bad" bacteria and pathogens that were in our food . . . and/or in the body to GROW and FLOURISH.

ONLY a range of 1.5 to 3.5 can KILL them!!!!

And it's this "BAD" BACTERIA . . . that actually causes the discomfort of the symptoms above.

Not the "actual" acid . . . per say

But . . . with that being said . . . "stomach acid" . . . is NOW ALLOWED to back up into the esophagus causing . . . what we THINK are our issues.

You see . . . "IF" . . . stomach acid in the range of 1.5 to 3.5 . . . were "actually" pushed up into the esophagus . . . we wouldn't have an esophagus left.

It would "burn" it beyond repair!!!!

Why you ask???

Well . . . the esophagus actually has a pH balance of "7" . . . neutral like the rest of the body.

So, why do "ANTACIDS" give us temporary relieve you ask???

Because . . "ANTACIDS" are a 8 to 10 on the pH scale . . . very "ALKALINE"!!!

Which is "way above" our normal, natural, HEALTHY neutral in the esophagus and body.

So, I'm going to CONTINUE this information and series of health tips . . . through the weekend and next week . . . because we NEED to understand . . . WHY "antacids" are killing us!!!

Today's Health Awareness Tip 1184: "Antacids" and our stomach acid!

Okay . . . so, yesterday we discovered how important it is to keep our "stomach acid" in the correct range on the pH balance scale for optimal health.

We also discovered that this Western diet we all love so much . . . RAISES the pH level in the stomach to an UNHEALTHY "alkaline" level . . . causing heartburn, acid reflux, indigestion and an array of other health issues.

Now . . . "IF" . . . the level of "acidity" goes and stays above 3.5 on the pH balance scale in the stomach for any length of time . . . our health . . . is now in TROUBLE!!!!

Okay . . . so, let's think "LOGICALLY" here for a moment.

What do "ANTACIDS" do to the stomach's acid pH balance???

They "RAISE" it above the normal range of 1.5 to 3.5 . . . to an "unhealthy" level of ABOVE . . . 5 . . .

And the reason for this is due to "ANTACIDS" being made of "ALKALIZING" element.

So, why does "alkalizing" give us some "RELIEF"???

Simply put . . . the "HIGHER" in "alkalinity" we go . . . the CALMER the stomach acids FEEL . . .

IT'S LIKE . . . PUTTING A FIRE OUT!!!

BUT . . . WE NEED THAT "FIRE" TO KILL BAD BACTERIA AND PATHOGENS TO BE HEALTHY!!!!

SO . . . WHY IS THIS A BAD THING???

Well . . . think about it . . .

"IF" . . . this Western diet . . . drinking . . . smoking . . . and too much stress . . .

"Causes" stomach acids to RISE to an "unhealthy" alkaline level . . . above a 4.0

Which causes symptoms of . . . heartburn, acid reflux, belching, bloating, etc.

Then ADDING . . . an "ANTACID" to calm those symptoms . . . makes

You see . . . Conventional medicine theory is this . . .

The reason we have "stomach acid" issues . . . acid reflux, heartburn, indigestion and upset stomach . . . is due to . . .

TOO MUCH FIRE . . .

TOO MUCH ACID . . .

And this "acid" being TOO LOW in the "normal" range of 1.5 to 3.5.

And "that's" why . . . they say . . . we need to take an "ANTACID" to alkaline and "raise" that "low acidity" level in the stomach to be more "alkaline".

But . . . that's NOT CORRECT PEOPLE!!!

And tomorrow . . . I'll tell you why

Today's Health Awareness Tip 1183: "Stomach Acid's" Journey

Okay . . . so, yesterday we spoke about "what" stomach acid does for our digestion . . . and that . . . it's NOT the enemy . . . "IF" . . . functioning properly!

We also ended yesterday . . . learning that the pH balance of the stomach . . . needs to be much more "acidic" than the rest of the body to do its job correctly . . .

This "acidity" . . . is essential for the digestion of food . . . the activation of digestive enzymes . . . and protecting us from bad bacteria and pathogens that may have been on or in our food.

So . . . the key to "optimal" health . . . with NOOOOOOO stomach upset, heartburn, bloating, belching, acid reflux or gastric issues . . .

Or . . . the H. pylori . . . we spoke of last week . . . that causes "Gastritis" . . .

Is KEEPING the pH level of our "hydrochloric acid" (HCl) stomach acid . . . in the healthy range of 1.5 to 3.5 on the pH balance scale we spoke of yesterday.

Now . . . when the stomach is "empty" . . . this "acid" level is normally between 1.5 and 2.0 . . . the bottom part of this range.

But . . . when we "eat" . . . after a meal . . this pH can INCREASE between 3 to 7 . . . WAY ABOVE THE NORMAL . . . depending on what food we just ate.

And the reason is this . . . the "food" we eat . . . can "buffer" the acid in the stomach.

Which can cause . . .

Acid reflux
Heartburn
Belching
and Indigestion

And what foods can cause this "increase" you ask???

Well . . . basically . . . everything we love in this Western diet . . . like . . .

High-fat foods

Fried foods

Acidic fruits like citrus and tomatoes

Spicy foods

Carbonated drinks

Chocolate

Caffeine

and Alcohol

Oh man . . .

We're in trouble now my friends . . .

And even "IF" . . . you don't feel the symptoms of this "increase" in "acidic" level . . .

Meaning . . . you DON'T have acid reflux, heartburn or indigestion . . .

It's STILL effecting us . . . and is called . . . the "silent killer of reflux".

So . . . how do "ANTACIDS" fit into this picture???

Well . . . tomorrow . . . we'll talk about that.

Today's Health Awareness Tip 1182: "Antacids" . . . are they good for us - continued

So, yesterday we discovered "what" antacids are . . . and how many of us partake of this "temporary" relief.

So, today . . . we're going to talk about the proper function of our stomach . . . and its "stomach acid".

This way . . . you'll better understand "WHY" antacids are slowly killing us . . .

Okay . . . so, as we know . . . the function of the "stomach" is to . . .

Temporarily store food . . .

Mechanically break it down through churning

and Chemically digest it with "acidic gastric juices and enzymes"

And with this . . . the muscular walls of the stomach . . . churn food into a "semi- liquid mixture called . . . "CHYME".

Now . . . while "chyme" is being made . . . "digestive enzymes" like . . . "pepsin" break down the "proteins" in that food . . .

And "hydrochloric acid" (our stomach acid) . . . helps to "kill" bacteria and activate the digestive "enzymes".

After this process . . . the stomach "slowly" releases this "chyme" into the "small intestine" for further digestion.

Got that so far???

Great!!!

Okay . . . So, when this "hydrochloric acid" is released in the stomach to do its job . . .

Some of the "glands" in the stomach wall . . . produce a "THICK" protective layer of "mucus" that prevents the "acid" from attaching to the stomach wall lining and BURNING it.

This is the body and stomach's "fail-save" system to prevent stomach ulcers, acid reflux, bloating and malnutrition.

And with this . . . our "stomach acid" . . . is SUPPOSED to be a "chemical" barrier against "INFECTIONS"!!!

Now . . . this is the part that Conventional medicine . . . and all its "ANTACIDS" . . . doesn't understand . . .

Or in my book . . . they wouldn't be prescribing and selling them to us . . . "IF" they were concerned about our health!!!

Okay . . . so, we've spoken many times before about the body's pH balance . . . meaning "potential hydrogen" balance.

And a quick review if you forgot would be . . .

pH balance refers to the "acidity" or "alkalinity" of body fluids . . . measured on a scale from 0 (highly acidic) . . . to . . . 14 (highly alkaline)

And "maintaining" a proper pH balance . . . is crucial for various bodily functions like . . .

Enzyme activity
Cell function
Immune system function
Bone health
and Respiratory function

Now . . . "normal" pH levels for the body and optimal health needs to be at a range of . . .

Slightly "alkaline" between 7.35 and 7.45

Remember above the pH scale of 0 - 14 . . . with neutral being "7"

Now . . . our "blood pH" and our "saliva pH" . . . needs to be around 7.4 on this scale . . .

But . . . what about our "stomach acids"???

Well . . . that's a whole different ball of wax people . . .

You see . . . this "acid" needs to be between 1.5 to 3.5 to do its job correctly.

And tomorrow . . . we'll continue with "stomach acid's" journey.

Today's Health Awareness Tip 1181: "Antacids" . . . do we really need them???

Good morning my friends!!!!

So, this week . . . let's talk about "all" those "ANTACIDS" we take . . .

Especially . . . around the "holidays"!!!

With many people taking them . . . on a "daily" . . . and/or . . . a "regular" basis!!!

So, we need to LISTEN UP PEOPLE . . . and "truly" understand what we're doing to our body by taking these drugs!!!

Okay . . . so, first question . . . What is an "ANTACID"???

Well . . . an "antacid" . . . is an over-the-counter medication that "neutralizes" stomach acid to provide fast, TEMPORARY relief from . . .

Heartburn
Acid reflux
Indigestion
and Upset stomach

And . . . they do their "magic" . . . by using "alkaline" ingredients like . . .

Aluminum
Calcium
Magnesium
and Sodium salts

Sounds pretty simple and "harmless" . . . right???

And . . . how many of us . . . partake in this "temporary" relief???

Well . . . the U.S. National Library of Medicine states . . .

"Approximately 10% of the U.S. population has used antacids in a 2-week period, and about 1/2 of all American adults have used them at some point."

Sounds like a little "DOWN-PLAYING" to me . . . don't you think!!!

And doctor's #1 recommended "antacid" is . . .

Mylanta Liquid Antacids

With "antacids" being used 3 to 4 times PER DAY . . .

Okay . . . so, how "big" is the "Antacids" market really???

Well . . . it was estimated that 6.6 BILLION U.S. dollars in 2022 were sent . . . and 6.81 billion in 2023 . . . with no data for 2024 or current as of yet.

But . . . I can only imagine . . . the numbers would be BIG . . . especially in today's stressed out" world!!!

So, tomorrow . . . let's talk about our "stomach" and its proper function to better understand "why" antacids are slowly killing us.

Today's Health Awareness Tip 1180: My "remedy" to "Gastritis"

So, when I broke my kneecap almost 4 months ago . . .

They put me on a regiment of "baby aspirin" twice a day for a month . . . and Oxycodone every 4 hours for 2 weeks . . .

Well . . . I did do the "aspirin" . . .

But, the OXY . . . I only did 1 time for the night to take the edge off for the first week.

But, in doing that simple routine . . . and the left over residual from the med's given during and after surgery . . .

It left me with "inflammation" in the wall lining of my stomach . . .

PEOPLE . . . that's what "baby aspirin" does to the stomach when you take it EVERY DAY!!!

In other words . . . I got . . . "gastritis"!!!

So, how did "I" . . . fix this issue you ask???

Well . . . I took a few "natural" elements . . .

First up . . .

"Raw Garlic" . . . 1 medium size clove with breakfast . . . NOT COOKED people . . . just "chew" and "shallow"

You see . . . "garlic" contains "allicin" . . . a compound with "antibacterial" properties that can help "fight" H. pylori . . . the "bad" bacteria that CAUSES "gastritis"

"Garlic" also has "anti-inflammatory" properties that can "reduce" stomach irritation . . .

And it contains "prebiotics" that "FEED" the beneficial bacteria (good bacteria) in the gut that can help improve digestion in this time of need.

Next up . . .

"Walnuts" . . . a few "raw" walnuts . . . after every meal

Walnuts are also an "anti-inflammatory" . . . and can "protect" the stomach lining from irritation and infection.

They actually "coat" the wall lining to "prevent" ASPIRIN from damaging the lining of the stomach . . . without . . . stopping the power of the aspirin to thin the blood.

Next, I took . . .

"Glutathione" . . . this is a must people . . . and I took that twice a day on an empty stomach

You see . . . "Glutathione" is the "MOTHER OF ALL ANTIOXIDANTS" for the body and optimal health.

And this powerful "antioxidant" . . . can protect the stomach lining from damage caused by "OXIDATIVE STRESS" . . . remember we just recently spoke about that.

And finally . . . "spore-forming" probiotics

We've spoken about them MANY times before also . . .

And they have the ability to . . .

Support the "gut" lining

Balance our "good" to "bad" ratio of bacteria in the body and intestines

They interact with our immune system to reduce "inflammation

And they have "antimicrobial" properties to "inhibit" the growth of harmful, bad bacteria like H. pylori

And after a regiment of that for about a month . . . I was good to go again.

You see . . . 99% of our health issues . . . START with the bacteria called . . . H. pylori . . . or . . . this fungi called . . . Candida.

And when we take Conventional Medications . . . this causes "inflammation" in the body and then "Candida" . . . and/or H. pylori . . . can now become a health issue!!!

But . . . as always . . . please consult with your own healthcare provider before using any new regiment.

So, next week . . . let's talk about all those "ANTACIDS" we're taking

PEOPLE . . . we need to LISTEN UP!!!!

Have a safe and healthy weekend . . . and remember to be "mindful" of your world!!!
