Episode 51: Upper Gastrointestinal Conditions

Today’s episode comes to you with one foot in Italy and the other in Brisbane, Australia, as Jessica is now 1 week into her 3 months away. Of course, different continents can do little to stop Jess and Carissa talking passionately about health, and todays episode is no different. In this episode they talk about common upper gastrointestinal (GI) conditions such as:

Indigestion

Reflux

GERD/GORD

Barrett’s Syndrome

Stomach Ulcers (gastritis)

Poor B12 absorption

Halitosis

and more!!

Jess and Carissa discuss how these conditions relate back to underlying gut issues and potential food intolerances, highlighting why treating the core of these issues is paramount for resolution long term, especially in relation to avoiding long term PPI use such as Nexium.

Jess and Carissa also talk about how these conditions can be treated (inclusive of useful tips you can take on board straight away!) alongside common approaches for successful treatment at the JCN Clinic, inclusive of the functional testing where appropriate. This is one not to miss if you suffer from any of the above conditions or know someone that does!
