Barrett's esophagus develops in people who have bile reflux into the stomach and lower end of the esophagus in the presence of a hiatal hernia.

Hiatal Hernias: Nutritional Support Protocol
submitted by: admin on 11/27/2013
Hiatal hernias develop when the opening between the esophagus and stomach is too wide and cannot fully close. This allows food in the stomach to regurgitate into the lower end of the esophagus and, because it does not have the protective lining the stomach has, to burn it with stomach acids. This can lead to "intestinalization" (looks...
High Blood Sugar, Elastin, Ferroelectricity and Aging
submitted by: admin on 09/24/2013
Ferroelectricity is the response of a molecule to switch from a positive to a negative charge and is necessary to maintain the elasticity of elastin, a protein that gives elasticity to tissues such as blood vessels as well as heart and lung tissue. Ferroelasticity of elastin is lost when blood sugar levels rise and this causes it to lose about 50%...

Calcium intake above 1400 mg per day is associated with doubling the risk of dying from a heart attack in both men and women. There are many studies showing that in women with osteoporosis who take large doses of calcium are at risk for both heart attacks and stroke.

High Dose Statins Associated with Increased Risk of Diabetes
submitted by: admin on 09/24/2013
A meta-analysis showed that high dose statin therapy as primary prevention caused an increased risk for type 2 diabetes. The article published in JAMA goes on to say that treatment of 32,000 non-diabetics with 5 years high dose statin treatment caused 149 more cases of type 2 diabetes, but 416 fewer cardiovascular events.This is a very misleading journal article...

HMO Medicine, Consequences of Insufficient Time
submitted by: admin on 11/25/2024
We are losing personalized care with HMO medicine. The one size fits all approach, lack of personal continuity, and fragmented care is now what is offered. Medicine is becoming a job rather than a passion.
Holism and Bodymind Medicine
submitted by: admin on 09/24/2013
Body, mind, emotion, and spirit are inseparable. They are one thing, not four. What you think regulates the biochemistry and physiology of the body. Imagery is the language of the mind and what we imagine is often a self-fulfilling prophecy. Physical disease is the somatic expession of psychospiritual dis-ease.
