The Healthy Matters Podcast

S02_E19 - Feeling the Burn. Talking Upper GI Health with Dr. Jake Matlock.

BBQ!  Hot salsa!  Gas station sushi!  What do they have in common?  Well, they're not exactly health foods.  But that doesn't mean we don't (or won't) eat them when we crave them.  And, as we all know, sometimes they punch back... 

On Episode 19, we're joined once again by Hennepin Healthcare's Dr. Jake Matlock to break down the causes and effects of heartburn, acid reflux (or GERD), ulcers, and the like.  These are conditions that we all fall victim to every once in a while, and for many of us, they can have a very large impact on our day-to-day.   We'll go over the origins, diagnoses, and treatment options, as well as the best bets for maintaining a healthy gut.  Join us!
