digestion

[Guest guest]

Hello . I've helped many people with exactly the same problem.

The problem is that you're stomach is much higher in the abdominal

cavity than it shoud be. This is caused by a sudden fright ie a car

accident or similar experience which causes the abdominal muscles to

constrict rapidly and force the stomach up into an unnatural position

against the heart and left lung. Not only does this impede heart and

lung function, it also dramatically affects the functioning of the

stomach, and hence, the entire digestive tract, enzyme production, ph

of the body, opportunistic infections and the like. read more about it

at www.energybalancing.com Go to the " therapies " page and click on the

link " stomach up " I think you may be able to relate to some of the

symptoms described there. The website also gives instructions to

remedy the problem by simply pushing the stomach back into place. An

extreme case of the stomach being up is where a small piece of it will

perforate the hiatus ( the hole where the oesophagus and trachea go

through) This in doctor's terms is called a hiatal hernia.

Hope this helps,

HI,

I had the exact same problem with the burping. As soon as I started

taking digestive enzymes it stopped right away. I see that you are

taking digesetive enzymes and you are still burping. Mabye try adding

some betaine HCL. When do you take your digestive enzymes ? Before

during or after meals ? I take mine before.

Digestion

Hi,

Two years ago I was diagnosed with acid reflux. I went the usual route;

traditional

doctors, tests, meds, etc, then I developed hives from the med Nexium.

From there I

started searching for alternatives and found a nutrtionist who helped me

tremedously;

natural hormone creams (my hormones were way off), powerful acidolphilus

to clean

out my gut and put in the good bacteria (had candida overgrowth and IBS

for 20

years). He also gave me a digestive aid, Total Digest. Oh and I also

started eating

Macrobiotic, do juicing, and Dr. 's zapping and kidney cleanse. I

couldn't do her

parasite cleanse since I was allergic to walnut hull. It made me cramp

up and blood

came out my urine. Not good.

Anyway, here's my problem. I still get burping after meals. Sometimes a

lot. My

nutritionist (Joe) says it's because my digestion is still weak and the

stomach is a

muscle and muscles take longer to heal. I may not be producing enough

HCI, and

then the food ferments in the stomach and that's what causes the gas.

What I want

to know is if anyone has experienced similar problems and what they did

about it. I'm

so tired of having this issue. It just hasn't gone away. I'm not sure

what to do next. I'd

like my body to produce the right amount of HCI and digest my food

properly.

Thanks,

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi ,

I've always been taking Digestive Enzymes, so I don't know why it's not working

as

well as it did. I just got HCL and I'm going to see if this helps. I take my

dig. enz.

before a meal. Some days are better then others, but I've been having this

problem

for two years (burping). It could be related to my third chakra issues, which

I've been

working on as well. I'm addressing this on all fronts; mental, emotional,

spiritual and

physical. Thanks for you help.

Hi ,

I never heard ot this before. Interesting. I checked out the web site and I'm

going to

give it a try. I've lived most of my life in fear, so this makes sense to me.

Thanks for

the info.

Not too many people have heard of Energy Balancing, but those who have

swear by it. I do.It may be difficult to do the manipulation yourself.

It's better to have another do it for you, but if you haven't anyone,

the standing up procedure is the best. Just keep trying until you get

it down. Don't be afraid to dig up under the ribcage to get a good

" grip " on the 'ol snarf with the tips of your fingers. An alternate

way is to drink four cups of water first thing in the morning and jump

up and land with legs, knees, and hips locked in a resounding thud.

The weight of the water may move the stomach down. Hope this helps,

cause if it does, you won't believe the difference. Cheers,

, thank you SO much for sharing your story on burping. And , thank

you SO much for your information on remedying " stomach up " .

I, too, suffer from perpetual burping. It started during a period of intense

stress. First, I started burping all the time, pressure under my breastbone,

imsomnia, anxiety, headaches, upper back and neck aches, and just feeling sick

in general. My digestion felt so off that I tried a 3-week herbal intestinal

cleanse. That just made me much, much worse. On top of the symptoms just

mentioned (which grew much worse) I now had bad pain in my upper abdomen and

dizziness. Finally went to the doctor and had lots of tests which revealed a

non-functioning gallbladder. I had the gallbladder removed a year later.

Unfortunately, the surgery did little to relieve me of my uncomfortable

symptoms.

I burp almost all the time! I burp when I get up in the morning, before I eat.

I often burp after I eat. Some of the worst burping occurs when I get hungry.

The last three days I have been trying the pull-down manipulation which

brought to our attention. At first, I didn't notice much but today my head

feels clearer and lighter, and my breathing feels easier. So maybe this is

helping! I will keep at it -- can't hurt!

, a question: where do you find is the best place to dig in with the

fingertips? I know you dig in under the ribs, but how far apart do you place

your hands? Or do you keep them your hands together?

,

How does one know if their stomach is up , besides the symptoms ? I

had a full body CT scan which did not show hiatal hernia and I also went

to an osteopath which said she did not think I had a hiatal hernia.

But when I read the section on your website, I see that a hialtal hernia

is the extreme situation, so maybe my stomach is up afterall.

I have a lot of the symptoms on your list, including burping, poor

digestion etc.

- isyour burping any less ?

Place both hands together on the left ribs with the pinkie of the

right hand real close to the sternum. Dig under the ribs with both

hands evenly on exhaling deeply and make a backwards 'J' motion,

pushing the stomach down, making sure not to let the fingers slip.

When the fingers are at the furthest position in pushing down the

stomach, release them quickly then immediately rub the sternum to tell

the body that's where the stomach should be. This is the reflex that

locks in the adjustment.You can do it standing or lying down, but for

me standing is best. Hope this helps and best of luck. Cheers,

Helo. the simplest way to check if the stomach is up is twofold. If

you feel a knot in the solar plexus and if when you drink a cold glass

of water you feel the water stop somewhere around the solar plexus,

then probably the stomach is up. One does not have to have a hiatal

hernia to have the stomach up. Hiatal hernia is the extreme case. Hope

this helps. Cheers,

Hi ,

Is it possible for you to take some digital photos of the technique and send

them to

me and susan, or anyone else who is interested? I'm not quite sure if I

understand

how to do the technique correctly, and I don't want to harm myself by pushing

and

poking the wrong area. Oh, and I'm very grateful for your sharing of this

information!

Thank you so much.

Dear ,

I'm so glad that I'm not alone in this burping thing that's been going on for

two years.

Sounds like you've had a rought time of it and hopefully 's stomach

technique

will work for both of us, and anyone else who needs this kind of help.

Good luck,

:-)

> , thank you SO much for sharing your story on burping. And , thank

>

> I, too, suffer from perpetual burping. It started during a period of intense

stress.

First, I started burping all the time, pressure under my breastbone, imsomnia,

anxiety, headaches, upper back and neck aches, and just feeling sick in

general.

My digestion felt so off that I tried a 3-week herbal intestinal cleanse. That

just made

me much, much worse. On top of the symptoms just mentioned (which grew much

worse) I now had bad pain in my upper abdomen and dizziness. Finally went to

the

doctor and had lots of tests which revealed a non-functioning gallbladder. I

had the

gallbladder removed a year later. Unfortunately, the surgery did little to

relieve me of

my uncomfortable symptoms.

, thanks so much. I understand.

I notice that your instructions focus on the left side of the upper abdomen,

where I understand the stomach is primarily located. I commonly feel upper

pressure just below and under my breastbone, which could be the stomach. But, I

also feel upward pressure just as strongly just to the RIGHT of the breastbone.

This pressure was even worse before I had my gallbladder removed. I rarely feel

upward pressure on the left side. Have you, , or anyone else ever heard of

digestive organs, other than the stomach, be in an upward position? It would

seem that if stress can cause contractions which pull the stomach up too high,

that other organs would be pulled upward, too!?

Re: Digestion

.

Place both hands together on the left ribs with the pinkie of the

right hand real close to the sternum. Dig under the ribs with both

hands evenly on exhaling deeply and make a backwards 'J' motion,

pushing the stomach down, making sure not to let the fingers slip.

When the fingers are at the furthest position in pushing down the

stomach, release them quickly then immediately rub the sternum to tell

the body that's where the stomach should be. This is the reflex that

locks in the adjustment.You can do it standing or lying down, but for

me standing is best. Hope this helps and best of luck. Cheers,

Hi all,

Since starting the stomach-done exercises four days ago, the burping has

decreased, as well as the dizziness, and feeling of bloated, sore upper abdomen.

And so far, no headaches. BUT, I also started a bit of HCl and digestive

enzymes at the same time, so that's probably helping, too.

My primary care doctor swears I don't have a hiatal hernia or GERD; I've

had barium studies and endoscopies which showed nothing unusual. But, two

chiropractors did muscle testing which indicated hiatal hernia. A medical

intuitive surprisingly picked up on a hiatal hernia; the intuitive also said

that I have too much energy going " up " , not enough " down " . In traditional

Chinese Taoism, one reads that energy should move down the front of the body,

and up the back, in a circle. Interesting!

, you ask how does one know if their stomach is up? In my case, my

upper digestive organs just feel like they are up too high!

For the record, I have done a few liver flushes. Since my gallbladder

" went bad " , I figure my liver is not in the best shape. Unfortunately, the

liver flushes have just my symptoms worse. I tried a parasite cleanse once and

got so sick I had to stop. I may try it again. (Stool testing revealed no

parasites, but who knows?)

I think the burping is often caused by movement of the large intestine.

For instance, on the liver flush, just before my intestines drop a big load, I

feel slight cramping in my upper colon. At the same time I start burping like

crazy!

Enough rambling for now.

Blessings to you all from in Eureka

RE: Re: Digestion

,

How does one know if their stomach is up , besides the symptoms ? I

had a full body CT scan which did not show hiatal hernia and I also went

to an osteopath which said she did not think I had a hiatal hernia.

But when I read the section on your website, I see that a hialtal hernia

is the extreme situation, so maybe my stomach is up afterall.

I have a lot of the symptoms on your list, including burping, poor

digestion etc.

- isyour burping any less ?

, and all. I will see if some pictures of the procudure

will turn out beneficial to you both. If I feel they will be helpful,

I'll send them to you. In the meantime, you may find this link also

useful. I believe the ileocecal valve is a major contributor to one's

ability to digest and well-being or conversely, to the detriment of

one's health if left untreated. See:

Best of Luck with the adjustments. Cheers,

.

The only possible harm you could do to yourself would be to get too

close to the zyphoid process, a small bone located at the lower end of

the sternum. I suspect, unless you have the strength of The Hulk, that

you could not do yourself damage there, especially with the poor

strength of the pinkie of the right hand. This is why I suggest

keeping both hands left of the sternum. Hope this helps. And by the

way, you're very welcome. Cheers,

It stands to reason that if the stomach can be forced upwards by the

extremely strong abdominal muscles, that any other organ can also be

moved. All the organs are connected to some degree with lymphatic

tissue and connective tissue, so if one moves, they all probably move

to some degree, although I have not really heard of this happening. I

believe that if the stomach is put back into position, that all the

organs will find their rightful happy little place to be. Just my

opinion. Cheers,

Thank you for the information . I don't feel a know there at all.

I tried pulling my stomach down once before and got extreme burping

(which I also get if I massage the stomach).

DO you know how I could find someone in my area (Toronto On) that could

help with the issues on your website - down stomach and ileocol valve ?

Loretta,

Thanks so much for your story. I actually tried drinking tons of aloe vera when

this conditon first developed, but it did not help me. But your story still

gives me hope, because maybe just time itself will give me relief. I mean it is

not as bad as it was when it first developed a couple years ago. I would be very

interested in why you think you developed this condition in the first place. If

you don't want to post it publically, please email me at

susan_moskaly@....

Blessings,

in Eureka

Re: Re: Digestion

Hi & ,

In the mid 1990's, I began to suffer terrible bloating

and burping. The burping was almost constant, day and

night, and i had a feeling similar to lava in my

throat when i did burp. Tears would often come

spontaneously after these burps, as they were

agonizing. This went on for probably about two years,

despite innumerable doctors and " specialists " . I was

put on a prescription drug, which didn't help

noticeably, and had tests of all sorts. X-rays did

show large amounts of gas bubbles in my stomach. The

doctors didn't know what was wrong or how to help me,

although they didn't directly put this into words. It

was hard to be out in public at all, due to the awful

burping, not to mention the bloating.

We didn't know much of anything about natural healing,

although i had successfully saved the lives of two of

our cats during this time. (This was after the vet had

been unable to help them with severe respiratory

infections, which in fact they *picked up* at the vet,

as he had been seeing cats from all over the area ~

which were dying, according to him. I purchased

several books at the health food store, and started

them on echinacea, Vitamin C, etc., which completely

cured them within a month, and brought them back

literally from death's door.) This may have been why

we had a bottle of aloe vera gel in our cupboard, due

to trips to the health store. Well, something prompted

me to drink a couple of swallows, and i felt a tinge

of relief and hope.

For the next couple of years, I was almost inseparable

from a " honey bear " that I filled with aloe vera juice

and drank from constantly. It went in the car with me

everywhere. When the burping riled up, I just took

several swallows. Most days, I probably drank a

several cups a day. Eventually, I was able to taper

off. Today, I drink aloe vera only when excessive

burping/bloating starts up. Usually this is only about

one day a month or so. I still have more burping than

probably most people, but usually there is no pain

involved, and the burping is far from constant. Aloe

vera has healed me of about 90% of my symptoms, and

how grateful I am of this!! Just to think, the gel

from a simple plant's leaves has infinitely more

healing ability than anything a bevy of doctors could

come up with, is remarkable. And the price...well,

pennies to tens of dollars, taking only the

prescription drug into consideration, and not the cost

of doctor visits, etc. Yes, i think aloe is a

beautiful plant today.

I hope this is helpful, and i also plan to try the

stomach manipulation,

Best wishes:)

Loretta

P.S. Now, i also believe that i know what initially

caused the burping, but that's another story. Most

importantly, aloe vera will soothe and heal so much

more than skin burns, but heals internally just as

well.

Jan and Loretta,

I have to agree with Ken. Xrays can't possibly show gas bubbles because

they should be hollow or full of air, and not solid in any way so that

they would show up on an xray.

I put the question out to a large social network I am a member of, and

there are many medical professionals in this group, and they got quite a

giggle out of the question, yet no one offered anything to explain what

might have been on the xrays, and one xray tech asked where this

happened so he could avoid this clinic/hospital.

I have no explanation either, but I have to ask, just where in your body

was this seen on the xrays? Is there any chance it was undigested

food? If either of you saw the xrays, did you see something circular in

groups? I must admit, my curiosity is pretty high on this subject and I

hope both of you can add more details of what you saw.

hope both of you can add more details of what you saw.

Ken,

I don't know one way or another, but never did care

for that particular doctor anyway! He was only one of

a " mess " of doctors and specialists who tried

unsuccessfully to figure out what my health problem/s

was. I ended up having surgery that didn't help any,

and that i regret to this day. Bottom line, a simple

and amazing plant, aloe vera, did more than all those

men and tests put together.

Loretta

P.S. What the doctor showed me on the x-ray looked

similar to designs in an agate rock, with large masses

of rounded shapes in the stomach area. At that time, i

had also, nearly overnight, started looking as though

i was expecting. In fact congratulations even came my

way, which was embarrassing to all.

This doctor was the same one who tried shoving me down

on the examination table when i told him i couldn't

breathe on my back due to the pressure on my stomach.

He pushed me down and tried holding me until i

panicked and began crying because i could not breathe

right. At that point he became even angrier at me, and

told me i was lying! This unfortunately happened in

front of my 2 young children who had gone with me that

morning, as i had made an emergency appt. due to

walking the floor in agony all night. That is just one

reason i wasn't fond of this particular doctor, and we

changed doctors after that incident.

Wait till the stool test results come back before you try increasing stomach

acid, it might

not be appropriate. But it wouldn't hurt to start some enzymes. And also, many

people

suggest consciously trying to chew your food more than you are used to

doing...not just

because it helps keep you from choking or something, but simply because there

are

enzymes in the saliva and it will help partially digest the food before it gets

into your

stomach. Many people are unaware that digestion actually starts in the mouth!
