What is the Heartburn? Potentially dangerous confusion can arise when someone neglects their heart pain believing it to be heartburn. What Causes Heartburn? Acid is present in the stomach to digest food. Heartburn occurs when small amounts of this acid rise up into the gullet (oesophagus) - the tube which carries food from the mouth to the stomach. This is called reflux. The gullet, unlike the stomach, does not have a protective lining. So when it is exposed to the acid, it can become inflamed and painful. Why Doesn't Everyone get Heartburn? Some known factors that can lead to heartburn include: pregnancy smoking eating large meals, especially near bedtime being overweight bending a lot wearing tight clothing around the waist. In most of these cases, it is the increased pressure which overcomes the normal muscle contraction and causes heartburn. Smoking, on the other hand, relaxes the muscle around the gullet, with the same result. What is Hiatus Hernia?

How is lactose intolerance diagnosed? How is lactose intolerance treated? How is nutrition balanced? ... For More Information What is lactose intolerance? Lactose intolerance is the inability to digest significant amounts of lactose, the predominant sugar of milk. This inability results from a shortage of the enzyme lactase, which is normally produced by the cells that line the small intestine. Lactase breaks down milk sugar into simpler forms that can then be absorbed into the bloodstream. When there is not enough lactase to digest the amount of lactose consumed, the results, although not usually dangerous, may be very distressing. While not all persons deficient in lactase have symptoms, those who do are considered to be lactose intolerant. The digestive tract Common symptoms include nausea, cramps, bloating, gas, and diarrhea, which begin about 30 minutes to 2 hours after eating or drinking foods containing lactose. The severity of symptoms varies depending on the amount of lactose each individual can tolerate. Some causes of lactose intolerance are well known. For instance, certain digestive diseases and injuries to the small intestine can reduce the amount of enzymes produced. In rare cases, children are born without the ability to produce lactase. For most people, though, lactase deficiency is a condition that develops naturally over time. After about the age of 2 years, the body begins to produce less lactase. However, many people may not experience symptoms until they are much older.

Most of us overeat from time to time, and many people often feel they've eaten more than they should have. Eating a lot of food does not always mean that a person has binge eating disorder. Doctors generally agree that most people with serious binge eating problems often feel their eating is out of control eat what most people would think is an unusually large amount of food eat much more quickly than usual during binge episodes eat until so full they are uncomfortable eat large amounts of food, even when they are not really hungry eat alone because they are embarrassed about the amount of food they eat feel disgusted, depressed, or guilty after overeating.

Many diseases have associated deficiencies. Some of the Digestive Diseases have deficiencies as described below. This is not a complete list of Digestive Diseases with vitamin deficiencies. A list of Vitamins and some of their function follows. Inflammatory bowel disease: Vitamin deficiencies, which occur in patients with inflammatory bowel disease, include: Vitamin A deficiency. 25 hydroxyvitamin D. (Identified in a 79 % of patients with Crohn's disease). Folate deficiency. B12 deficiency. Vitamin C deficiency. Chronic Liver Disease: Patients with chronic liver disease also had a high incidence of vitamin malnutrition. Patients with end-stage liver disease, chronic hepatitis, PBC, PSC and acute hepatitis have been shown to have vitamin deficiencies. Chronic liver disease is commonly associated with osteopenia. This condition needs to be evaluated by a special test called a bone densitometry test. It can be ordered through your physician's office. Osteopenia is commonly associated with Vitamin D deficiency. Alcoholic liver disease is commonly associated with thiamin deficiency. This deficiency can result in abnormal sensation in the hands and feet.

DIET AND ITS POSSIBLE ROLE IN DEVELOPMENTAL DISORDERS Margaret Lahey and Shari Rosen BAMFORD-LAHEY CHILDREN'S FOUNDATION ABSTRACT Dietary intervention is difficult to research because of problems with controlling the food intake of children as well as the delayed impact of many reactions to particular foods or additives. However, the data regarding the possible association of food additives with symptoms of ADHD and the association of dairy and grain proteins with symptoms of autism are compelling enough to warrant further investigation.

Digestive Disturbances in Dogs NEW DIGESTIVE DISTURBANCES IN DOGS Food moves from the mouth to the stomach via the esophagus. Inflammation or obstruction of the "food tube" or megaesophagus (a weakening and dilation of esophageal muscles) may cause a dog to regurgitate food before it reaches the stomach. As the stomach churns food into a thick liquid (chyme), special glands secrete enzymes that break down proteins, hydrochloric acid that aids those enzymes, and mucus that protects the stomach from digesting itself. Vomiting is the most obvious sign of stomach inflammation. Just as food leaves the stomach into the small intestine, there is an organ that is attached to and parallel to the main digestive tract called the pancreas. This organ adds enzymes that help digest carbohydrates, fats, and proteins, plus sodium bicarbonate to help neutralize stomach acid. Also in the pancreas lies a tube attached to the liver call the bile duct. It is through this tube that the liver contributes bile, which breaks up fats into easily absorbed globules and promotes absorption of fat-soluble vitamins. Most of the digestion and nutrient absorption occurs in the convoluted small intestine, where more enzymes and mucus are added. Fingerlike projections (villi) lining the small intestine absorb broken down nutrients for delivery throughout the body. In a medium-sized dog, villi provide an absorptive surface equal in size to the floor of a small room. If your dog has watery diarrhea with no blood or mucus, does not strain when defecating, and eliminates on a normal schedule, its small intestine is probably inflamed.

Library Table of Contents What is Preventive Medicine? Prevention Staff Articles Guest Articles ... Next: Diet and Disease Common Digestive Disorders The modern low-fiber diet has wreaked havoc on the digestive systems of millions of people. It is rare to find someone with a healthy digestion and smooth elimination. Digestive disorders are so common that that most people regard them as a normal part of life. Tight, narrow lips are a sign that the digestive system has become tight and constricted. This more yang condition is caused by too much animal food and not enough fiber. A lack of whole grains, beans, and fresh vegetables is a common cause. If the upper lip is thin and tight, the stomach and solar plexus are tight and blocked. Among modern foods, chicken and cheese frequently cause tightness in this part of the body. This tightness interferes with smooth digestion and may be a sign of hypoglycemia or chronic low blood sugar. Hypoglycemia arises when the pancreas becomes tight, hard, and blocked, as a result of the repeated consumption of foods such as eggs, chicken, and cheese. In this condition, the pancreas is unable to secrete sufficient glucagons, the hormone that causes the blood sugar to rise. Tightness in the lower lip is a sign of tightness in the intestines. The cause is similar to the above: repeated consumption of meat, chicken, cheese, and other forms of animal food, and not enough grains, vegetables, and other plant fibers. Tightness and constriction in the large intestine is a common cause of chronic intestinal stagnation and constipation.

Your browser does not support script Stomach Cancer The Stomach After food has been swallowed it passes down the gullet and enters the stomach. The stomach wall produces fluid and acid to soften the food and begin digestion. The stomach churns and mixes the food until it is suitable to be passed into the intestine where it will be further digested and absorbed into the blood stream. In order to carry out its job the stomach has an outer muscle wall to enable it to churn the food and pass it into the intestine. It also has an internal lining which secretes the acid, fluid and other chemicals that are added to the food. The activity of the stomach is controlled by nerves and chemicals that are triggered by the sight or smell of food, the act of eating, stretching of the stomach and the presence of food within it. How does cancer arise? Stomach cancer arises from changes in the internal lining of the stomach, the part that is responsible for secreting the acid, fluid and other chemicals. This layer is complicated because as well as having to secrete, it must also protect itself from the acid that it produces, this would otherwise damage the lining and cause an ulcer. The surface is lined with numerous delicate little cells. These are specialized and live for only a few days, after which they drop off into the inside of the stomach. They are replaced by new cells that are generated deep in the lining. The formation and death of the lining cells of the stomach is kept under close control by the body. Each cell develops for its special function and has to link with the other cells close by to form a team which will either secrete acid, protect from acid, secrete other chemicals or act as hormone cells.

93. FDA/CFSAN Why Is Fiber Important To Your Diet? The evidence that a highfiber diet can protect against breast cancer is Digestivedisorders Because insoluble fiber aids digestion and adds bulk to stool, it http://vm.cfsan.fda.gov/~dms/qa-nut12.html

Why is fiber important to your diet? What can fiber do for you? Numerous epidemiologic (population-based) studies have found that diets low in saturated fat and cholesterol and high in fiber are associated with a reduced risk of certain cancers, diabetes, digestive disorders, and heart disease. However, since high-fiber foods may also contain antioxidant vitamins, phytochemicals, and other substances that may offer protection against these diseases, researchers can't say for certain that fiber alone is responsible for the reduced health risks they observe, notes Joyce Saltsman, a nutritionist with FDA's Office of Food Labeling. "Moreover, no one knows whether one specific type of fiber is more beneficial than another since fiber-rich foods tend to contain various types," she adds. Recent findings on the health effects of fiber show it may play a role in: Cancer: Epidemiologic studies have consistently noted an association between low total fat and high fiber intakes and reduced incidence of colon cancer. A 1992 study by researchers at Harvard Medical School found that men who consumed 12 grams of fiber a day were twice as likely to develop precancerous colon changes as men whose daily fiber intake was about 30 grams. The exact mechanism for reducing the risk is not known, but scientists theorize that insoluble fiber adds bulk to stool, which in turn dilutes carcinogens and speeds their transit through the lower intestines and out of the body. The evidence that a high-fiber diet can protect against breast cancer is equivocal. Researchers analyzing data from the Nurses' Health Study, which tracked 89,494 women for eight years, concluded in 1992 that fiber intake has no influence on breast cancer risk in middle-aged women. Previously, a review and analysis of 12 studies found a link between high fiber intake and reduced risk.

Interested in reciprocal links? CLICK HERE More information about New NPIB System click here... Now available in both Capsule and Tablet form. FREE FREIGHT Probiotics are dietary supplements containing friendly bacteria. While the word "bacteria" usually has a negative association, certain species of intestinal microflora are considered beneficial. They aid in the breakdown of proteins and fats in food and help us to absorb vitamins, minerals and amino acids. In addition, these helpful bacteria boost the immune system and prevent or limit the growth of harmful bacterial like salmonella and E-coli. While we usually start life with a relatively healthy intestinal tract, the effects of infections, antibiotics, alcohol, stress and poor diet very often devastate healthy bacteria leading to constipation or diarrhea and a number of life threatening diseases. Supplementing our diets with an effective probiotics like KE-99 can reverse this trend, improve intestinal and overall health and help guard against disease. Click here to learn more about probiotics or take a look at what others have to say about probiotics and KE-99 KE-99 , a strain of lactobacillus casei , is an extremely safe and effective probiotic. It was developed and evaluated over a two-year period in the laboratories of a public university in California. When compared to other probiotics, including multi-strain formulations, KE-99 consistently outperformed those competitive products. .

University of Missouri DROUGHT INFORMATION Limit-Feeding Concentrate Diets to Beef Cows KC Olson, Ph.D., PAS, Dipl. ACAN Beef Nutrition and Management Specialist Alternative nutritional management of beef cows is called for when hay and pasture stocks are low. Drought conditions are predicted for much of the Midwest during the summer of 2000. With a likely shortfall in forage production, cow-calf operators may wish to consider limit-feeding concentrate diets to mature cows. This practice can be an economical alternative to feeding forage. When compared based on the amount of feed energy supplied per unit of weight, grains and grain-milling byproducts are often less expensive than hay. Limit-feeding beef cows involves supplying the animal with just enough grain or grain byproducts to maintain its body weight, produce a targeted amount of milk, and, if necessary, to achieve a targeted amount of weight gain. This can be accomplished with little forage added to the diet. Compared with a standard forage diet, limit-fed diets are more energy dense. The amount of these high-energy rations made available for consumption on a daily basis must be closely controlled to prevent digestive disorders (e.g., acidosis, founder, and bloat). As a result, limit-feeding requires a fairly high degree of management skill to implement safely. Several items must be kept in mind when considering a limit-feeding program for beef cows. Any time ruminant animals are switched from a high-forage to a high-concentrate diet, resident microorganisms in the rumen may require up to 14 days to adapt to the new feeding regime. As a result, changes in the diet must be achieved by very gradually increasing over time the amount of grain relative to hay in the ration. The preferred adaptation period is 14 days in length to accommodate the switch from a high-forage to a high-concentrate diet.
