Dr. Christine Kaczmar reviews the movie, 'What The Health'

I have heard from far too many patients that their medical doctors have put them on some medication or another with the claim that they're making too much stomach acid. Let me tell you right now: it is absolutely, physiologically impossible to produce too much stomach acid. In fact, many of the symptoms doctors try to treat with these acid-reducing medications are actually caused by low stomach acid.

This typical practice of prescribing proton-pump inhibitors has got to stop, so today we're going to go deep into stomach acid deficiency and all the problems associated with it. Listen in to learn the true cause of heartburn and similar issues, why it's absolutely critical for your body to produce stomach acid, and how medications aimed at reducing stomach acid are actually incredibly harmful to your overall health.

We've all heard of fats, carbs, and protein, but do you understand how the body uses them for energy? There are four specific phases the body goes through to convert the food you eat to energy, and if your body isn't digesting these things properly, it can lead to some serious problems.

So today I'm going to discuss your macronutrients—meaning your fats, your carbs, and your proteins—and how they affect your energy. Listen in to learn how our bodies convert these nutrients, what happens if you're not digesting them as you should, and why being healthy isn't so much about your diet as it is about how well your body processes it.
