Fast Heartburn Relief Without Deadly Drugs
Since gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) was first identified in the early 1930s, the number of people experiencing heartburn has increased substantially. In fact, one study shows that in just 10 years, the number of people experiencing:1 Any GERD symptoms increased by 30% Symptoms at least once a week increased by 47% Severe GERD increased by 24% While these numbers are concerning, I’ll admit they’re not surprising considering the typical American diet. Our nutrition-less, grain-based diet of carbohydrates and starches has wrecked our health and made our bodies behave in ways nature never intended. This has led ...

A case report of a patient with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction presented as dysphagia
AbstractDysphagia is a common clinical symptom in older people that can be attributed to a wide range of diseases, extending from neoplasm to gastroesophageal reflux diseases such as stroke or achalasia. We are presenting a case of a 78-year-old male with a history of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction and progressive dysphagia, due to a rare case, namely, dysphagia megalatriensis. Even though left ventricular ejection fraction was preserved, the patient improved, when we provided him with optimal medical heart failure with reduced ejection fraction treatment. In our case report, we intend to highlight the bene...

Top 20 Research Studies of 2022 for Primary Care Physicians
This article summarizes the top 20 research studies of 2022 identified as POEMs (patient-oriented evidence that matters), excluding COVID-19. Statins for primary prevention of cardiovascular disease produce only a small absolute reduction in a person's likelihood of dying (0.6%), having a myocardial infarction (0.7%), or having a stroke (0.3%) over three to six years. Supplemental vitamin D does not reduce the risk of a fragility fracture, even in people with low baseline vitamin D levels or a previous fracture. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors are preferred medical therapy for panic disorder, and patients who disco...
