hi I'm Dr. Ekberg and I'm sitting here with Scott Henderson we just like to
chat for a few minutes and share some things that you might find some benefit
in So Scott you want to tell us why you came in in the first place sure about
nine months ago I had some severe pain in the middle of my back on the left
side and probably lasting a couple weeks and just wasn't getting any relief from
it and so I actually found you on the Internet mmm but really was really
impressed with what I saw so I decided to give you a try in then I came in and
things have gone really well as a result of that my back pain isn't there at all
anymore I'm able to do the things that I feel like I I want to do work in the
yard lift heavy things in the yard all sorts of things that I have always done
and I'm back, back to being able to do that wonderful so did you did you try
anything else oh yeah well you know I tried putting ice on my back I tried
just taking it easy and I was getting concerned because it didn't seem like it
was getting any better no matter what I tried ok so all right all right well I'm
glad that we could be of help with that and i wanted to mention something else
also that we worked with a little bit later because then that you you said
that you also had heartburn or reflux yes and so we we got you some
supplements and how has that been working out really well better than I
imagined it would that was one of the things i mentioned
to you just sort of off the cuff when i was in here and unexpectantly have had
good deal of favorable results from the course that you recommended both the
dealing with it from an adjustment point of view as well as the recommendation
you made of particular supplements I struggle with this for 15 years and had
been taking numerous types of the prescription and I start off with
prescription medications you know the proton pump inhibitors and I decided I
thought I was getting better and so I decided them to lay off of that and it
would come back and so I took the over the counter stuff like Zantac and Pepsid
and those sorts of things I was having to take those every day and I
thought this can't be good you know so when I mentioned that to you you ran
through a number of tests know the strength tests that you do and yeah so
on and you recommended particular course you know the supplements I'll tell you
what was surprising to me was how quickly those supplements worked
with the very day I started taking them that night I went to bed wondering what
was going to happen because I if I didn't take the zantac before I go to
bed I wake up the next day and it felt like someone ran a wire brush up and
down my esophagus some not all the time but sometimes that's how it would be and
so the next day I got him I couldn't believe how good I felt and so I've been
taking them ever since and been extremely pleased with that wonderful a
little side note for those who aren't familiar with the mechanisms here that
most people and most of the traditional belief in our health care system is that
heartburn and reflux comes from too much stomach acid when in fact it comes it
develops because of not enough stomach acid and first we have to understand
that the body doesn't do anything by mistake that if the body makes
hydrochloricAcid there's a reason for it so your body makes hydrochloricAcid
in the stomach to digest proteins and if you don't digest proteins properly you
missed one of the most important steps of digestion and now first of all the
food sits around too long and it starts wreaking havoc and secondary stomachAcids are
forming which actually creates the reflux but furthermore undigested
materials go down through your digestive system and now you get inflammation and
irritation further down and the traditional way then with proton
inhibitors and tums and all those things they're trying to neutralize the StomachAcid
that the body is making on purpose so now you're digesting food even to an
even lesser degree and now you have malabsorption and nutritional
deficiencies because the food you're eating is getting
digested so what's exciting about this is that not only are the symptoms going
away but you're actually getting more nutrition out of your food yes and
that's just just a bonus and I feel better overall this isn't TMI I have
more regular bowel movements and I I know exactly when they're going to
happen every day yeah so good and that's important stuff yeah we don't talk about
it but that's some of the most important basic functions of the law yes yeah well
wonderful thank you so much for for sharing my pleasure and to help
continued success Thanks thank you
