Which Fish Damage Your Brain?
Fish are definitely part of a healthy diet, and in fact are the mainstay of animal protein on a Mediterranean diet. Sadly, all fish are not created equal.
The bigger fish like shark, swordfish, tilefish, tuna and King mackerel have high levels of mercury. Mercury is a neurotoxin for which there is no safe limit.
If you very occasionally eat such fish it shouldn't be a problem, but if you enjoy tuna and swordfish fairly regularly you should consider different fish.
Mercury can cause a variety of symptoms, chief amongst them cognitive decline such as brain fog, memory loss, dementia and Alzheimer's disease.
The good news is that you can be tested for mercury and it can be slowly and safely re...

Food Poisoning Linked with Autoimmune Disease

Have you ever had food poisoning? I think most of us have at one time or another. I certainly remember my personal Chinese food incident to this day!

The mechanism is that you get the infection and while your symptoms resolve there is still residual i...

Bloated? Don't ignore it. Bloating Leads to More Serious Diseases

Bloating is so common that most people ignore it. But there's a difference between common and normal and bloating is definitely NOT normal. It's an early warning sign that your gut is inflamed. As the inflammation progresses it weakens the lining of your intestine creating leaky gut. The "leakiness" or increased permeability leads to increased immune stress and further inflammation.

Expect no cure for motility prob 50% working. And that's sad 😢 but surviving wish I had more answers on the motility but I don't think their is a answer. Just wonder if undiagnosed hiatel hurnia caused my motility prob? . I must have had it for years till it destroyed my eso. Had lots of endoscopy but no one said I had a hurnia till finally found a gi who cared. I'm taking your number thank u for sharing.

    Hi pleasant good night I'm so happy that I found your channel I have been having palpitations for a lot of years but what a made it act up is when I lost my both parents, the doctor just keep saying its Anxiety but when I eat food especially spicy food and those things I got palpitations it is very scary and because of that trauma for being so long the problem is not just palpitation but the fear of it in my case I believe I don't really have acid reflux but I eat it I belch a lot when I eat when I was going to school I missed a lot of breakfast and used eating a lot of spicy I guess I so wish that you was in Trinidad I know I can overcome this but I need assistance and I need the support in here in Trinidad they always brush it off as anxiety and to leave it as it is the only tablet that I'm using for the palpitations is propranolol but because of different factors of stress and eating habits so I should say lifestyle living alone and trying to put food on the table is being tough at times by the grace of God I am really trying I does not want to use the propanol tablet but sometimes I do it's just that when I get the palpitation I just be afraid thank you for your channel and I wish that you could reply when you read this please thank you love from Trinidad❤ call one one thing I should mention that's when I lost my mom I started to get politicians while about to fall asleep find a hand series night and the body doctor and he prescribed propranolol I really wish by god's grace discount stop and I can overcome this fear God bless thank you

DESPITE TWO HEART ABLATIONS, I EVENTUALY I HAD A PACE MAKER FITTED, AND THE PROBLEM STOPPED. But, BEFORE THINGS GOT WORSE, CHEWING ANT-ACID PILLS LIKE 'RENNIES' PREVENTED IT GETTING OUT OF HAND. NEVER EAT LATE AT NIGHT, OR LARGE MEALS LATE, OR HOT AND SPICY LATE. OR STRONG ALCHOHOL LIKE SPIRITS . IT WORKED FOR ME MANY TIMES. PREVENTION IS BEST.

    You are absolutely right because I suffered for months from gas in my digestive system to the point that I was terrified when I ate any meal of any kind because after that I suffered from a severe heart rhythm disorder and I could not lie down and I sometimes fell asleep while sitting in bed and it recently became clear to me that my problem is... Poor digestion, and my digestive system suffers from digesting food, especially pastries and food that contains a high percentage of carbohydrates. I will not go on for a long time. I finally discovered that all I needed was pancreatin, which helped me incredibly in digesting food. I have been using it for 4 days, and since then the gases in my stomach have disappeared by 99%, and the heart problems have disappeared, almost permanently.

      @@olfa Composition: Each Film Coated Tablet Contains: Pancreatin equivalent to the minimum activity of: Amylase 4200 Eu Units, Lipase 3500 Eu Units. Protease 250 Eu Units. . I think that if the doctor treating you proves that there are no infections or inflammation in your intestines, then you most likely need enzymes to help you digest, regardless of the type. For me, pancreatin helped me a lot in digesting pastries in particular and food in general. Perhaps general enzymes that help in the digestion process will definitely help you.

So I guess I better eat dinner earlier and see what happens.

    Hi Dr.Vikki, I just found your channel I always knew I had a hiatal hernia. The last 3 months, I've noticed I would get full after eating a very small amount and get very bloated. I went to the ER and they did a CT scan and confirmed the Hiatal along with a fatty deposit. They're recommendation? Get on Pepcid AC and Dicyclomine. I looked up the side effects of Dicyclomine and it was enough to look for a better way. They gave it to me in the hospital and got dizzy and confused. Famotidine isn't that great either. A positive was my blood work was perfect.
