Something is wrong with the stomach acid. We have over 50 emails in the last 30 days to get stomach acid. Yes, we get 10,000 e-mails a month, but 50 is always an issue highly unusual. The questions on gastric acid were all kind mind you, but not surprisingly, one thing I could imagine the most important issue: low stomach acid.
However, in this newsletter we will cover all aspects:
* Stomach acid and digestive
* Too much stomach acid
* Too little stomach acid
* Stomach acid and proteolytic enzymes
* Stomach acids and probiotics
* Stomach acid and digestive
Before we even talk about stomach acid, we need to spend a little time talking about how it fits into the digestive system. Most people believe that eating a meal when he falls into a pool of stomach acid, when brokenhave removed to bottom, then goes into the small intestine, nutrients, and are then passed into the colon to the point - if you're lucky. Not quite.
What nature intended is that you eat enzyme-rich foods and chew your food properly. If you did, would the food in the stomach laced with digestive enzymes. These enzymes would then predigest "your food for about an hour - actually breaking up to 75% of your meal.
Only after thisPeriod of "pre-digestion" are hydrochloric acid and pepsin introduced. The acid inactivates all of the food-based enzymes, but begins its own function of degradation, which of the meal in combination with the acid energized enzyme pepsin left. Finally, moving focus of this nutrient-rich food to the small intestine. Once this concentrate enters the small intestine, the acid is neutralized and the pancreas reintroduces digestive enzymes to the process. As digestion is completed,Nutrients passed through the intestinal wall and into the bloodstream.
That is what nature intended. Unfortunately, most of us do not live our lives as nature intended!
Processing and cooking destroy enzymes in food. (Any sustained heat of about 1180 F to 1290 destroyed nearly all the enzymes.) Means this, that for most of us, the food in our stomach is highly deficient enzyme. The food then sits there for an hour, like a heavy lump, with very littlePre-digestion takes place. This forces the body to produce large amounts of stomach acid in an attempt to overcompensate. Furthermore, failure in this experiment, a large part of the meal (even occurs in the small intestine largely undigested), there are two major consequences.
1. Too much stomach acid.
2. Too little stomach acid.
Too much stomach acid
That is obvious. In one experiment, for lack of enzymes in the food overcompensateStomach produces excessive stomach acid to compensate, leading to headaches. When not to take antacids or purple pills really solve the problem, but merely removes one of the symptoms. Ultimately, however, we are still quantities of poorly digested food into the intestine where they become gas, bloating, bad digestion, chronic digestive disorders, in addition to blowing out your pancreas tries to compensate with the production, hugeAmounts of digestive enzymes for use in the small intestine. All of this is through food and beverages such as alcohol (especially beer) made worse still, can double high sugar foods and caffeinated foods (coffee, tea, etc.) is actually the acid production.
The simple solution for most people with excess stomach acid with digestive enzymes to digest the meal and 70% in the pre-acid phase can, thus complementing the need for large amounts of stomach acid andalso under tremendous stress off the digestive tract and the pancreas.
Another factor that may contribute to the problem is a hiatal hernia, allows for a portion of the stomach through the diaphragm into the chest cavity food and stomach acid may rise back into the esophagus. Combine a hiatal hernia with excess stomach acid and you have the potential for great distress. The standard treatment for severe hiatal hernias is laparoscopic surgery - With mixed results. Fortunately there are alternatives that chiropractic can be quite effective.
In any case, the changes in diet and additional digestive enzymes are likely to produce meaningful results without causing problems further down the digestive tract.
Drink 2-4 ounces of organic, stabilized, aloe vera juice every day can also help to soothe irritated tissue in the esophagus and help balance the digestive juices in the stomach.
Too Little > Stomach Acid
Follow the logic here for just a moment.
If you spend years forcing your body to compensate for massive overproduction of stomach acid, to the lack of enzymes in your diet, what do you think the long term consequences in terms of their ability to produce stomach acid could be?
Bingo!
Finally, to your body's ability to produce stomach acid begins to fade, with a corresponding loss of> The ability of your body sufficiently process food in the stomach. The health consequences can be profound. Low production of stomach acid is widely used and is more common with increasing age. At the age of forty years, is 40% of the population are affected, and by age sixty, 50%. A person over 40 years, who has visited a doctor's office about a 90% probability of low stomach acid. The consequences may include:
Poor digestion. Not only is there insufficient stomach acidDegradation of food, not enough acid, the digestive enzyme pepsin, which requires a pH of about 2.0 to optimize. This leads to partial digestion of food, causing gas, bloating, belching, diarrhea / constipation, autoimmune disorders, skin diseases, rheumatoid arthritis and a number of intestinal diseases such as Crohn's disease and IBS.
It is estimated that 80% of people with food allergies to a certain degree of low acid production in the stomach.
Many vitamins andMinerals require proper stomach acid in order to be properly recorded with, including: calcium, iron, vitamin B12 and folic acid. Vitamin B12 in particular requires that sufficient stomach acid for proper utilization. Absence of this acid, a result severe B12 deficiency. (Note: ionic delivery systems can work around this problem.)
With low acidity and the presence of undigested food, harmful bacteria are more likely to colonize the stomach and interfere with digestion. NormalLevels of stomach acid help to keep the digestive system free of harmful bacteria and parasites.
It is worth noting that symptoms of low acidity:
- Flatulence, belching, and flatulence immediately after meals.
- Indigestion, diarrhea or constipation.
- Heartburn.
Is it just me, or not, this list sound very similar to the symptoms associated with too much stomach acid? In fact, up to 95% of people who think they areSuffering from too much stomach acid are suffering are actually the exact opposite condition. The use of antacids and purple pills then be precisely the wrong treatment to use, as they exacerbate the underlying condition even temporarily, while masking the symptoms.
OPTIONS
To supplement with digestive enzymes to reduce the need for gastric acid is - the body a chance to rest and recover its ability to produce enough stomach acid.
Mix oneTsp cider vinegar with water and a little honey and drink it with every meal. You can gradually increase the vinegar up to 3-4 tablespoons in water if necessary.
In addition, with betaine hydrochloride (HCL) tablets can also help, but nothing more than minimal doses than in most multivitamins supplements should be administered by medical practitioners to avoid damage to the gastric mucosa only under supervision.
Stomach & PROTEOLYTICENZYMES
As I mentioned at the top of the newsletter, we received a number of issues with stomach acid in the last 30 days. Most of them had nothing to do with high or low stomach acid, but with the effect of gastric acid in supplements. In fact, the majority of the questions we have received, with proteolytic enzymes, such as stomach acid affects concerns, and they all pretty much ran the following lines.
Since enzymes are made from proteinsand proteolytic enzyme formulas are taken orally:
How do they survive the digestion of proteins found in the stomach and would they not broken down by stomach acid into amino acids?
If they make it through the stomach, because they are so big they would not be, do not pass through the intestinal wall?
Surviving The Stomach
Not all the proteins (enzymes are proteins), broken down by stomach acid. Instead oftechnical, I just like to point out pepsin. Pepsin is an enzyme that is excreted by the stomach to assist in the digestion of proteins in food aid. Not only that they are not broken down by gastric acid, the optimum pH environment is about 2.0 (very) highly acidic. Bottom line:
Although some enzymes are destroyed by stomach acid, such as serapeptase, most - not only temporarily inactive. (Note that one of the reasons why I do not use in my own serapeptase's proteolyticEnzyme formulation.)
Different enzymes function in different pH environments, which is why I worded my proteolytic enzyme formula, Phi enzymes in a variety of functions of pH values.
ABSORPTION
Enzyme is completely absorbed and is manifested by two main roads:
1. Pinocytosis
2. Peristalsis
Pinocytosis
Enzyme molecules are bound and encapsulated by other materials such as water. Since it isencapsulated, it can not detect the intestinal wall, she thinks as enzymes and they are "water", thus easily passing through the intestinal wall. When traveling the enzymes in the bloodstream, they attach to lymphocytes and easily throughout the vascular and lymphatic system.
Peristalsis forces not only food (and enzymes) down through the intestinal tract, it also forces to transit through the intestinal wall.
Stomach acid & PROBIOTICS
The issues related toProbiotics are not degraded, essentially the same as those for the proteolytic enzymes: they are, and destroyed by stomach acid - and thus the special, acid-proof capsules? And the answer to which is most probiotics, absolutely not. (I believe this is primarily a marketing company selling space for probiotics in enteric-coated capsules, but the logic is faulty.)
The reason why we should take probiotic supplements to the probiotics, which we replace used to get in a wide range ofunprocessed fermented foods such as homemade yogurt, sauerkraut, buttermilk, sour foods, kimchi, real soy sauce, raw vinegar, tempeh, etc. - foods that are no longer a significant part of our diet. But think for a moment. These foods are not enteric coated. How could these foods provide probiotic value if the beneficial bacteria are destroyed by stomach acid? The simple truth is that beneficial bacteria survive easily for the most part, to gastric acid. Even ifTake your probiotic supplements with water on an empty stomach (as we have already spoken), they encounter almost no stomach acid anyway.
CONCLUSION
The bottom line here is that most people are confused plays very concerned about the role of gastric acid in health. Most people:
- Belief that they had too much if it in fact too little.
- Treat the symptom and suppress the production of stomach acid, and finally to a long-termhealth problems.
- Ultimately lose the ability to adequately stomach as a result of dietary abuse and drug intake to the body's ability to stop in order to produce it.
Do not let yourself fall into this trap.
- Use digestive enzymes with all meals.
- Do you drink aloe vera juice.
- Use forward probiotic supplements with confidence.
- Use proteolytic enzyme supplements to meet with confidence.
- And, if necessary, useApple cider vinegar or betaine hydrochloride supplements one to stomach acid insufficiency.
