Hi my friend,  One of the most common digestive complaints today
continues to be peptic ulcers.Now, it's probably safe to say everyone has heard of ulcers, but not safe to assume that everyone knows what they're called or exactly what's going on when you have one.  Here's a mini crash course on ulcers:  Ulcer lingo  : Peptic ulcer is the "umbrella" term for an ulcer in the
stomach or duodenum (the first part of the small intestine where it connects to the stomach). When the ulcer is in the stomach it's a gastric ulcer, and in the duodenum it's a duodenal ulcer.

The ins and outs of an ulcer .The inside of your stomach and duodenum are covered with a lining to protect them against the strong acidity of your
digestive enzymes. Think of this lining like a rubber glove that you wear when you use harsh cleaning chemicals.An ulcer is a sore in that protective lining that allows your digestive acids to seep through and "burn" the stomach
or duodenum. (Kind of like having a hole in your rubber glove and getting harsh chemicals burning on your skin.) That's why ulcer sufferers commonly complain of a burningpain--that's exactly what's going on. They can also feel nauseous and vomit. 

How they're diagnosed . There are two common tests for ulcers and neither are very pleasant. An Upper GI series is where you drink a barium solution (a
thick, gooey, salty concoction that you have to fight hard not to puke up), then x-rays are taken of your stomach and duodenum. An endoscopy is where you're sedated (thank God) and a thin tube with a camera on the end is inserted in your mouth, then passed down your throat into your stomach and duodenum. The doctor can see if there's an ulcer and take a biopsy (snipping a small sample of your insides) if necessary.    Click Here!
Treatments that make things worse  Typical treatments for ulcers are antacids, H2 blockers and proton pump inhibitors.  Antacids neutralize the acid in your stomach. H2 blockers stop the action of histamine (a hormone that signals the
stomach to secrete acid). Proton pump inhibitors shut down the little "pumps" in the acid-secreting cells of the stomach. The problem with these treatments is that they only mask the symptoms of an ulcer and they completely mess up your digestion. You see, your stomach NEEDS acid to properly digest protein. So when you take a drug to neutralize or prevent stomach acid, you're bringing your digestion to a screeching halt.

Sure, you might get relief from the "burning" sensation for a few hours. But trouble will be brewing elsewhere. When your digestion is thwarted, your stomach realizes there's a problem, so it tries to secrete MORE acid to kick-
start digestion again. And if you're an antacid user, you reach for another Tums and think to yourself, "Damn ulcer!" when you should be thinking, "Damn antacid!"  If you're an H2 blocker or PPI user, the stomach will get where with its acid secretion efforts anyway. And either way, your food is STILL sitting there in the stomach, not properly digested, and starting to rot and
putrefy.     Click Here!
This is when the rumbling starts...I'm talking about gas. Pain. Cramps. Bloating. Flatulence (farting).And while your food is sitting there rotting and you have more gas than a Citgo station, all of the necessary vitamins and nutrients in your food are obliterated. Since your body's hunger signal is triggered by a need for the nutrients in the food, and it hasn't gotten any, lo and behold, you feel hungry again. And heaven forbid if you eat something--you'll start the cycle all over again!  Now, once your stomach gets sick of the rotting, putrefying mess it pushes it into the intestines, but since  the food has not been completely digested yet, your wastes don't pass through nice and easy like they should. And what happens then? Constipation. Diarrhea. Faeces 
getting stuck in your colon and leading to things like diverticulosis and diverticulitis (and possibly, if it goes on long enough, cancer).
What really works for ulcers
The problem here is not acid in and of itself--acid is a natural part of digestion. The problem is when TOO MUCH acid is produced by the stomach. Then it creates and irritates ulcers and you get that familiar pain. It can also go rising up into the throat and voila--acid reflux. But when you have a diet of mainly alkaline foods and eat foods together that are compatible in the stomach, it can accomplish its job easily and without overproduction of acid. The food is digested quickly (usually within 3 hours) and passes through to the intestines, nice and easy.   Click Here!
And no pills necessary to put out the fire in your gut.  Because there is no fire. When you keep the acid low in your system naturally with your foods, (and not mask your symptoms with pills), you begin healing the ulcer. The simple, easy to understand advice I teach in the Great Taste No Pain Health System

works. If you own Great Taste No Pain, do what it says to do.
