Stomach Problems - Digestive Imbalances are the most overlooked and mismanaged disorders in healthcare currently

Finding the cause and correct treatment most receive is doomed to fail if it involves Antacids or inhibiting drugs as well as those that just treat pain.

Underlying digestive problems like heartburn and constipation, gas and belching, stomach aches and bloating are many factors that need to be discerned.

The traditional drugs only get rid of inflammation and treat symptoms.

Is your doctor lacking the ability to diagnose and identify your problem? 


The education your doctor received to find the cause of your health concern and the tests he runs may not be adequate to help you get well without additional lifestyle and dietary support. They must link the patterns described below that are often complex and involve more than one area affecting your whole system and making you feel lousy and having you rely on over the counter meds that don't ever handle the cause.

 

Our body needs the food to be of high quality

 Removing processed foods, Genetically Modified Grains and Veggies and eating hormone free meats is a great start. Next Elimination of grains containing the protein called gluten and removing dairy products can do wonders for ones health but it does not end there.
 Having proper digestion, breaking down the food is a problem for many.  More than 50% of the people in the world have an infection in their digestion system called Helicobacter pylori  or H. Pylori for short. This should be checked for especially in all people of have ulcers and those who need to take digestive enzymes because H. Pylori will turn off the acid in your stomach to survive leaving you with food rotting in your gut instead of breaking down to absorb the protein, calcium and iron needed to be healthy.
Herbs to support Digestion and immune system
Besides treating the symptoms ( WE DO NOT WANT YOU TO EVER STOP TAKING YOUR MEDICATIONS WITHOUT GUIDANCE FROM YOUR DOCTOR) the emphasis must be on improving your digestive function not just suppressing the symptoms. 

Why am I yelling? It is just too common to have someone come in to a doctor who has a digestive imbalance and not get a handle. Pharmaceutical management is key to remove the infections. But one needs to also repair the damage, replace the digestive enzymes, reinoculate (add back) the beneficial bacteria to reinforce the health of the whole body to have proper metabolism.

We use the 4 R program found in Clear and Repair steps. If after the 3 steps a person still has symptoms, we do a stool test to find the DNA of what is present and abnormal.

Normalize Digestive Disorders instead of just coping with them

Those below the age of 60 years of age should never have poor digestive enzyme production and need HCl-  Hydrochloric Acid.  I always look for hidden H.Pylori infections for those who seem to require HCL, have stomach aches or vomiting for no known reason. I usually suspect eggs, chicken and or a spouse as the source and treat the spouse and remove the poultry as well as using the 4 Rs. Repair the Intestines of "Leaky Gut"

When the mucous lining of the small intestine becomes too porous, it allows entry of toxins, microorganisms, and undigested food particles into the bloodstream and promotes an inflammatory immune response. Intestinal barrier compromise has been associated with multiple food sensitivities, increased inflammation, autoimmune reactions, chronic fatigue, etc. This is known as a leaky gut.

  Repairvite TM is formulated to provide key nutrients to help support intestinal barrier integrity.  lt contains targeted nutrients, flavonoids, antioxidants, plant sterols, glycoproteins, and saponins needed to help restore and maintain intestinal lining integrity.

Sometimes the symptoms can guide us to find the  Weakest Link. The blood and stool tests can be used to see if there are any imbalances that go along with the symptoms below.
