Clinical Focus: GERD, Part 1
June 21, 2016
Gastro-esophageal reflux disease GERD affects tens of millions of Americans. Many are relegated to long-term dependency on proton-pump inhibitors (PPIs), powerful acid-blockers that are prescribed for a lifetime. But they are very hard to discontinue due to acid-rebound; additionally they have lots of side effects including nutritional deficiencies, osteoporosis, heart attacks, dementia, kidney disease, IBS, higher risk of stomach infections like C. difficile, pneumonia, and headaches, nausea and rashes. Elimination diets can help; gluten-free, low-carb, FODMAP, and Paleo diets have proven benefits. Certain medications can worsen GERD. So, too, can chronic esophageal Candida infections which are encouraged by long-term acid suppression and can be missed by gastroenterologists. We describe a tapering protocol that has been successfully used by many Hoffman Center patients to get off PPIs. We consider nutraceuticals that can support a successful weaning from PPIs: DGL, Endefen, melatonin, aloe, hydrochloric acid and/or digestive enzymes, probiotics and Iberogast.

ENCORE PRESENTATION: Brain Self-Repair and Regeneration
June 16, 2016
Clinical Psychologist Dr. Brant Cortright, author of "The Neurogenesis Diet and Lifestyle: Upgrade Your Brain, Upgrade Your Life," rejects the myth that the brain is inevitably programmed to progressively decline; instead, he cites new scientific studies that suggest the brain is capable of self-repair and regeneration (neurogenesis). Sleep, physical exercise, nutrition, stress, social interaction and mental challenges are all factors that influence the rate of neurogenesis. Dr. Cortright offers practical suggestions on diet, supplements, Mindfulness Meditation and exercise that can optimize brain repair. He cites specific scientific studies that demonstrate that lifestyle changes can slow and even reverse cognitive decline.
