In the fitness spotlight today is: Gastric Reflux
You can’t turn on a TV (or so I recall when I owned one) without seeing an advertisement for some drug meant to “cure” your reflux. Of course, their idea of “cure” is “manage by taking our little pill daily.” The other unfortunate piece of the puzzle is that those pills rarely fix the real problem (poor digestion), aiming instead at the suppressing acid production, which only makes digestion worse. Check this out from Dr. Briffa:
This week’s British Medical Journal carried an interesting editorial which suggests that proton pump inhibitors are massively over-prescribed. According to this editorial, between 25 and 70 per cent of individuals on these medications have no appropriate indication to be taking them.
My experience in practice is that many of these individuals are suffering from what might be described as ‘poor digestion.
So first of all, fix your digestion. Eat slower. Chew better. Add use some probiotics to reset the bacteria in your intestines.
And second, avoid these dietary factors that are known to make reflux worse.
■Our old friend, gluten
■Sugar
■Refined carbohydrates
remember kids, smart eating will produce the most improvement in your health and wellness.
