Dr. Norm Robillard has written a great book on how to virtually eliminate heartburn without meds or surgery. I have followed his advice inadvertently and rarely suffer from heartburn or, as it is called when chronic, GERD.
Essentially to cure your heartburn don’t gulp Maalox or quit coffee. Simply remove carbs – refined carbs, grains and beans and watch your GERD get gone. His book gives a great explanation for the how and why and it never hurts to be a brain.
If you suffer from type II diabetes or know someone who does, please watch this clip.
I'm watching CNBC right now and they are telling me that due to skyrocketing prices, people are buying cheaper foods to save money. Less meat and more macaroni. Less fish and more fish sticks.
I feel for those who are in this predicament (unless they smoke cigarettes and eat Twinkies).
But because of this, if you think obesity in this country is bad now – look out. You ain't seen nuthin' yet.
TIP: A dozen eggs costs less than a box of Cheerios.
A pound of Hamburger meat costs less than a pound of fish sticks.
And let's not forget that the healthier you eat, the less food you need to eat (that is if you want to call Cheerios food).
So realize that nutrient rich foods (meat, fish, eggs, etc.) though at times more expensive, give a family a lot more nutritional bang for your buck.
Eat smart, not cheap.
