Heartburn Cured: The Low Carb Miracle by Norm Robillard (2005) Paperback($49.50Value)

Description

Did you know that you can stop acid reflux immediately and permanently with out using any drugs? What if someone told you that fats, coffee, alcohol, spices and even smoking are not triggers for acid reflux and it had all been a big mistake? What if someone provided evidence that the small intestine bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) was responsible for the acid reflux and the huge increase in the rate of esophageal cancer? What if someone told you that GERD was not really a disease so much as our bodies way of coping with a diet we did not evolve with? Heartburn Cured makes a strong argument that consuming certain carbohydrates is the root cause and real trigger for acid reflux and the resulting complications like Barrett's and esophageal cancer. This breakthrough diet book is written by a microbiologist who suffered from chronic heartburn for 20 years before getting fed up with uninformed GI medical doctors prescribing drugs that either did not work or were associated with serious side effe "When I first found your book, I was on Nexium looking for help, any help. It seemed impossible, and I felt like I could very well be on Nexium for the rest of my life. I couldn't understand it....an extremely healthy individual with the lung capacity of an elite athlete. As a scientist does, I looked for answers. I read your book and changed my diet. The rest is history. And believe me, your book was my last gasp. I had an expensive Endoscopy looking for answers and of course numerous courses of PPI's. All the doctors I saw prescribed PPI's - none ever considered anything but the "usual suspects" of spicy foods, chocolate, caffeine, you know the list. And, I'm sure my story is NOT unique.I would wager that thousands if not millions of American's suffer from the same crisis caused by the modern American Diet. So, I can't thank you enough for writing Heartburn Cured as well as your new book, Fast Tract Digestion Heartburn. Your research exists in a vacuum. A place where modern medicine does not venture, yet. Personally, I think you're on the verge of something big. Your work is groundbreaking. Thanks for getting me off Nexium for good." ---- Chris Tomer, Meteorologist at FOX-31 News and Colorado's Own Channel 2 in Denver Conventional Wisdom vs. New Miracle Diet Theory: Conventional dietary practices to diminish heartburn include strict elimination of spicy foods, caffeine, alcohol, fatty foods, and carbonated soft drinks. Recently, however there has been growing interest in an apparent connection between heartburn and the consumption of excess carbohydrates. The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases reports, The Committee is aware of new research which indicates a controlled carbohydrate diet may dramatically reduce the incidence of gastroesophageal reflux. PinnacleCare seeks out cutting edge research and offers its Members both sides from the world of medicine: both new and tried-and-true. Many anecdotal treatments considered folly by yesterday's physicians, such as the value of vitamins, have now become accepted by the established medical community. In the case of the touted heartburn diet miracle developed by microbiologist Norm Robillard, PhD., PinnacleCare Advocate Barb MacLaverty reports dramatic results from members who have tried the diet, including her own young daughter. Dr. Robillard, himself a heartburn sufferer who sought both relief and cancer risk reduction, developed a controlled carbohydrate approach resulting in a complete cessation of his own symptoms. His heartburn research points away from trigger foods and towards a different culprit: the ability of intestinal microbes to produce large amounts of gas from carbohydrates, but not fats and proteins. In his book HEARTBURN CURED, Dr. Robillard shows how limiting carbohydrates in our diets can prevent microbes from producing large volumes of gas, thus eliminating acid reflux. According to PinnacleCare's Dr. Varn, the diet's heartburn results need further study, yet Dr. Varn sees few risk in following the diet, Reducing high carbohydrates is helpful for weight loss which is clearly a smart move to diminish heartburn. ---- PinnicleCare's News Letter Heartburn Cured was recently reviewed by the healthcare advocacy group, Pinnacle Care.
