FAQ: Diet

What the actual hell?

I was desperate. I was frequently experiencing gastrointestinal distress, ulcers, and food-poisoning-like symptoms. While I did experience horrible ulcers for the majority of my life, the last few years had significantly progressed to the point where I couldn't eat any food that I didn't make without feeling some stomach problem — no restaurants, no fast food, no church potlucks, no dinner dates.

Do you know the cause?

Some of it was a food allergy to meat and meat byproducts, some genetic predisposition, and some was an h. pylori bacterial infection. There were other factors, but those are the three big ones.

What did the doctors say?

Unfortunately, the only thing the doctors could help with was the h. pylori, and the only way they could do that was antibiotics. Since I am allergic to amoxicillin-based antibiotics and since my family has historically very bad reactions to antibiotics, that was not an option, nor would it solve my meat allergies or genetics.

So what did you do?

I spent six months off of sugar and another three free of yeast (which inhibits bacterial growth) with a limited selection of food intended to grow my microbiome, then spent a week and a half on only probiotic food — yogurt, flax, kombucha, and kefir, as well as grapefruit peel powder for the last few days. After that, I did a total fast (no food or water) for two days, no food for three more days, and then slowly started adding juice and flax and then other foods back in over the month or so (to avoid shocking my system). During the fasting period, I also was doing manual lymph drainage, taking karanja seeds, and I routinely used a sauna throughout this whole experience that made it easier and faster.

You went for two days without drinking and five days without eating anything???

Yes. And I kept working my manual labor job. However, I am experienced at fasting; I do a total fast for 24 hours once a month and fast sunrise to sunset once a week. And because of my gastrointestinal distress, not eating for a day or two had become pretty routine for me.

Okay, what about the karanja seeds? Google says they're toxic to humans!

Did everything go like you expected?

Google AI is wrong. They are toxic to fish and a few other animals. However, in a study done with rats, researchers found they showed no signs of liver damage but what they did find is the oil in them could heal ulcers caused by stress and chemical damage at extraordinarily high rates.

More or less. Some things were better — I honestly expected to hate yogurt by the end of that phase — some were worse — I am now, for unknowable reasons, significantly worse at drinking water. I also became kinda manic bipolar while I was fasting and my nerves were so much more sensitive. 10/10 did not like it. Never want to do it again.

Did it turn out like you were hoping?

Will you do it again?

Wellllll....... Yes. And no. I feel much better and I can eat out without worrying and I'm not allergic to meat anymore. Buuuuut most meat still tastes nasty as all get out and I won't be eating it much.

Pictured for reference: goat biryani which I will never be eating again.

No. I will probably do a probiotic cleanse with yogurt and kombucha every year or two, just to keep my microbiome well-fed, but I will never do the total fasting ever again. Probably.

Do you recommend that anyone else do it?

How desperate are you? "I can't eat a lettuce and tomato salad" kind of desperate? "I ate tater tots and threw up" kind of desperate? "I'm surviving off pancakes and dollar store cheese dip because that's the only thing that doesn't make me bleed internally but oops I just found out the cheese dip is making me depressed" kind of desperate? You must be desperate to do what I did. And you are probably not.

Unveiling Iron Deficiency: Causes, Symptoms, and Treatment Options

Iron, a vital mineral, plays a pivotal role in maintaining our overall health and vitality. It’s an essential component of hemoglobin, the protein responsible for carrying oxygen from the lungs to all parts of the body including the brain and muscles. Iron also plays a role in converting sugar to energy, boosting the immune system, aiding in cognitive function, and supporting healthy skin, hair, and nails.

Iron deficiency is a prevalent condition that can lead to a whole host of symptoms. Some of these symptoms are well known – heart palpitations, fatigue, weakened immunity, shortness of breath and weakness. Other symptoms can include anxiety and low mood, restless leg syndrome, and cognitive changes. There are so many factors that contribute to our health, but it is important to make sure that nutrient deficiencies are not contributing to your overall symptom picture. Iron deficiency is a big one to watch out for especially in menstruating individuals. Blood testing for a CBC and ferritin are easy and affordable and should always be part of your routine examination.

Causes

Iron deficiency can arise from several factors including inadequate dietary intake, poor absorption, increased demand during growth or pregnancy, blood loss such as menstruation, or genetic causes.

Sometimes we struggle to get enough iron in the diet – maybe it is due to dietary restrictions or just a busy schedule; this combined with inadequate absorption can make it challenging to maintain the levels of iron that the body needs. GI absorption can be affected by a number a factors – SIBO, leaky gut, gut inflammation, IBD, IBS, stress (the list goes on)! Working on gut health is always a priority for laying a strong foundation for health, but this can take time and sometimes we need to shift our treatment approaches to best support the immediate needs.

Blood loss from menstruation is a major contributor to iron deficiency in women. It can feel like an uphill battle to build up iron stores with oral supplements and unfortunately the body will tend to have heavier periods of bleeding when we are low in iron! Additionally, some individuals may inherit traits that make them more prone to iron deficiency making it even more challenging to maintain the iron that your body needs.

Treatments

Oral iron supplementation is a necessary part of ongoing treatment for many. Oral Iron comes in a wide variety of forms and the main side effect reported with use is digestive upset, namely constipation. Vitamin C can help to offset this effect as it is a natural laxative and Vitamin C additionally helps iron to absorb.

The bisglycenate form is known for being the gentlest and least likely to have this effect, though some find that a plant-based iron is the only thing they can tolerate orally. Most find that if they split their dose up and take it throughout the day, the side effects are much more tolerable. It is best to talk with your physician to decide with option and dosing is best for you and your body.

B12 and Folate are crucial co-factors for red blood cell production so having adequate B vitamin supplementation is important in support iron deficiency and anemia as well.

Dietary Considerations

Foods high in iron include red meats (beef, lamb, pork), poultry, fish and shellfish, eggs, nuts, dried fruit, whole-meal pasta and bread, iron-fortified cereal, legumes (black beans, lentils, chickpeas), dark leafy green vegetables (spinach, broccoli), oats, tofu.

Vitamin C aids absorption (such as the supplement, or foods rich in Vitamin C, such as: apples, pomegranates, oranges, orange juice, cantaloupe, strawberries, grapefruit, kiwi and other Vitamin-C rich foods).

Cook in a cast-iron skillet, pots or pans to add extra iron to your food.

AVOID at the time of iron supplementation as these things that reduce the absorption: Dairy, calcium supplements, black tea, nuts, soda, chocolate, coffee.

Iron Infusions vs Oral Supplementation

Iron infusions bypass your digestive tract and can be helpful in those who have absorption issues or who get an upset stomach with oral supplements. Most find rapid benefit in mood, energy, brain fog and general sense of well-being when they receive a needed iron infusion.

IV iron treatment can be a game-changer for individuals struggling with iron deficiency, offering faster relief of symptoms than oral supplementation alone. Intravenous iron infusions deliver iron directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive system and improving absorption rates. IV iron is great for people who struggle with constipation while taking oral iron. This method allows for faster and more effective replenishment of iron stores, leading to a rapid improvement in anemic symptoms. Treatment recommendations and frequency are made based off recent blood work including CBC, iron panel, and ferritin.

Additionally, we routinely prescribe Vitamin B injections for our patients to support the much-needed cofactors for iron absorption and red blood cell production. You can add on a B vitamin injection to your IV iron infusion, you will notice the positive effects!

Insurance companies are variable in whether they will cover an iron infusion. Typically, they will only cover these through a specialist, called a Hematologist, often within Oncology Departments. There are specific cut offs for ferritin and CBC parameters for insurance to cover these treatments, but people are often significantly symptomatic well before labs will reflect cuts offs for insurance coverage. Our clinic offers Venofer Iron Infusions prescribed by physicians, but we do not bill insurance for these services and all fees must be paid at the time of service. The benefit of doing treatments at the clinic include faster and more comfortable appointments, consultation time with your provider during the treatment, and accessibility outside of insurance coverage/ a hospital system.

If you’re interested in scheduling an appointment or you’d like more information, please contact us.

Foods to Avoid After Getting Dental Bonding

Dental bonding is a popular cosmetic dental procedure that enhances the appearance of teeth by repairing chips, cracks, discoloration, and minor gaps. If you’ve recently undergone dental bonding near me, it’s essential to take proper care of your newly bonded teeth to maintain their strength and longevity. One of the most critical aspects of post-procedure care is being mindful of your diet. Certain foods and drinks can compromise the durability and aesthetics of your bonding material, leading to staining, chipping, or even premature wear.

At Cambridge Port Dental, we prioritize educating our patients about the best ways to maintain their dental work. If you’re searching for a dentist near me or a dentist Cambridge, our expert team is here to provide personalized dental care. In this guide, we’ll discuss the foods you should avoid after getting dental bonding Cambridge and why making the right dietary choices is essential for the longevity of your treatment.

1. Hard Foods

Hard foods pose a significant risk to bonded teeth as they can cause the bonding material to crack or chip. Avoid biting into:

Ice cubes

Hard candies

Nuts

Popcorn kernels

Raw carrots and apples (unless cut into small pieces)

Chewing on these foods exerts excessive pressure on the bonding material, potentially leading to damage that requires repair by a dentist near me.

2. Sticky and Chewy Foods

Sticky and chewy foods can pull at the bonding material and weaken its adhesion to your natural teeth. Some of the foods to avoid include:

Caramel

Chewing gum

Taffy

Sticky candies (like toffee or gummy bears)

If the bonding material becomes loose, you may need a visit to Cambridge Port Dental, your trusted dentist Cambridge, to fix the issue.

3. Dark-Colored Beverages

One of the most significant concerns after dental bonding near me is staining. The bonding material is more porous than natural enamel and can absorb pigments from dark-colored drinks, leading to discoloration over time. Avoid excessive consumption of:

Coffee

Tea

Red wine

Dark sodas

Berry juices (such as cranberry or blueberry juice)

If you do consume these beverages, consider using a straw to minimize direct contact with your teeth. Additionally, rinse your mouth with water afterward to help prevent staining.

4. Acidic Foods and Drinks

Acidic foods and beverages can weaken the bonding material over time, making it more susceptible to wear and discoloration. Common acidic items to limit include:

Citrus fruits (oranges, lemons, limes, grapefruits)

Vinegar-based dressings

Tomato-based sauces

Carbonated drinks (soda, sparkling water)

These foods can also increase tooth sensitivity, which is a common side effect immediately after dental bonding Cambridge.

5. Sugary Foods and Drinks

Excessive sugar consumption can lead to cavities and plaque buildup around the bonded areas. Sugary foods and drinks to be cautious about include:

Candy

Sugary cereals

Soft drinks

Pastries and cakes

Brushing and flossing regularly, as well as visiting Cambridge Port Dental for routine checkups, can help prevent dental issues caused by sugar.

6. Alcohol-Based Mouthwashes

While not a food, it’s essential to note that alcohol-based mouthwashes can weaken the bonding material over time. Opt for an alcohol-free alternative to maintain your oral health without compromising the integrity of your bonding.

Tips for Maintaining Your Dental Bonding

To ensure your dental bonding near me lasts as long as possible, follow these additional care tips:

Brush your teeth at least twice a day using a soft-bristled toothbrush.

Floss daily to remove plaque buildup around bonded areas.

Avoid using your teeth to open packages or bite into hard objects.

Schedule regular dental checkups at Cambridge Port Dental, your go-to dentist Cambridge for preventive care.

Conclusion

Caring for your newly bonded teeth involves more than just good oral hygiene — it also requires mindful eating habits. By avoiding hard, sticky, acidic, and stain-causing foods, you can extend the lifespan of your dental bonding Cambridge and keep your smile looking its best.

If you’re searching for a dentist near me to maintain or repair your bonded teeth, Cambridge Port Dental at 10 Magazine St, Cambridge, MA 02139, is here to help. Contact us today to schedule an appointment and keep your smile bright and healthy!

How Vidalista 20 mg Works: A Complete Guide for Beginners

Introduction

Erectile Dysfunction (ED) affects millions of men worldwide, causing stress and affecting self-confidence. If you are struggling with ED and looking for an effective solution, Vidalista 20 mg might be the right choice for you. This medication is one of the most popular ED treatments due to its long-lasting effects and high success rate.

In this guide, we’ll explore everything you need to know about Vidalista 20 mg, including how it works, its benefits, dosage, side effects, and more. Whether you are new to ED medications or considering switching to Vidalista 20 mg, this guide will help you make an informed decision.

What is Vidalista 20 mg?

Vidalista 20 mg is a medication that contains Tadalafil, an active ingredient used to treat erectile dysfunction. It belongs to the class of drugs known as PDE5 inhibitors, which help relax blood vessels and improve blood flow to the penis, enabling men to achieve and maintain an erection.

Vidalista is available in various strengths, including:

Vidalista 2.5 mg

Vidalista 5 mg

Vidalista 10 mg

Vidalista 20 mg

Vidalista 40 mg

Vidalista 60 mg

Vidalista 80 mg

How Does Vidalista 20 mg Work?

1. Inhibiting the PDE5 Enzyme

Erectile dysfunction occurs when the phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) enzyme restricts blood flow to the penile region. Vidalista 20 mg works by inhibiting this enzyme, allowing the blood vessels to relax and expand.

2. Boosting Nitric Oxide Levels

When sexually aroused, the body releases nitric oxide (NO), which signals the blood vessels to widen. Tadalafil enhances the effects of nitric oxide, promoting stronger and longer-lasting erections.

3. Increasing Blood Flow to the Penis

Once the blood vessels relax, more blood flows into the penile chambers, leading to a firm erection. However, the medication only works when there is sexual stimulation.

4. Long-Lasting Effects

Unlike other ED pills, Vidalista 20 mg provides results for up to 36 hours, making it one of the longest-lasting ED treatments available. This allows for more spontaneous sexual activity without the need to take a pill right before intercourse.

How to Take Vidalista 20 mg?

Take one tablet with a glass of water 30-60 minutes before sexual activity.

Vidalista 20 mg can be taken with or without food.

Avoid grapefruit juice and excessive alcohol, as they may reduce effectiveness.

Do not take more than one tablet per day.

If you need a lower or higher dose, you can consider Vidalista 2.5 mg, Vidalista 5 mg, or Vidalista 40 mg, based on your doctor's recommendation.

Benefits of Vidalista 20 mg

✔ Long-lasting effects – Stays active for up to 36 hours. ✔ Fast-acting formula – Begins working within 30-60 minutes. ✔ Improves confidence and intimacy. ✔ More spontaneous sexual activity – No need to plan every intimate moment. ✔ Cost-effective alternative to Cialis – Offers the same results at a lower price.

Healthy Foods for Skin: The Secret to Glowing Skin

Taking care of your skin doesn’t just mean using the right creams and serums; it also involves paying attention to what you eat. Eating healthy foods for skin can transform your complexion, making it radiant and youthful. The nutrients in these foods work from within, promoting skin health naturally.

Why Healthy Foods Are Essential for Your Skin

Your skin reflects your overall health, and diet plays a significant role in maintaining it. Foods packed with vitamins, antioxidants, and healthy fats repair skin damage, keep it hydrated, and fight signs of aging. Including the right foods in your diet can lead to softer, smoother, and healthier skin.

Best Healthy Foods for Skin

Citrus Fruits: Your Collagen Booster

Citrus fruits like oranges, lemons, and grapefruits are excellent sources of Vitamin C. This vitamin is essential for collagen production, which keeps your skin firm and reduces wrinkles. Add a glass of fresh orange juice to your breakfast for a morning glow.

Avocados: Nature's Moisturizer

Avocados are rich in healthy fats and Vitamin E, which nourish and moisturize your skin. They also protect against environmental damage. Incorporate avocado slices into your salads or spread them on toast for a delicious, skin-loving meal.

Fatty Fish: Omega-3 Powerhouse

Fish like salmon, mackerel, and sardines are packed with Omega-3 fatty acids. These fats help reduce inflammation, which can cause acne, and keep your skin hydrated. A weekly serving of grilled salmon can work wonders for your complexion.

Nuts and Seeds: Snack Smart

Almonds, walnuts, and sunflower seeds are full of antioxidants and healthy fats. They protect the skin from harmful UV rays and maintain its elasticity. Keep a handful of nuts handy as a quick and nutritious snack.

Green Leafy Vegetables: The Antioxidant Boost

Spinach, kale, and broccoli are power-packed with antioxidants, vitamins, and iron. They fight free radicals that cause skin damage and help repair skin cells. Add these greens to your soups, smoothies, or stir-fries for an effortless skin boost.

Sweet Potatoes: Glow From Within

Sweet potatoes are rich in beta-carotene, which your body converts to Vitamin A. This nutrient protects your skin from sun damage and gives it a natural, healthy glow. Swap regular fries for sweet potato fries as a tasty alternative.

Berries: The Anti-Aging Heroes

Blueberries, strawberries, and raspberries are antioxidant-rich superfoods. They help combat free radicals and reduce signs of aging like wrinkles and fine lines. Sprinkle some berries over yogurt for a refreshing dessert.

Simple Ways to Incorporate Healthy Foods for Skin

Eating healthy foods for skin doesn’t have to be complicated. Here are some simple tips:

Start your day with a smoothie made from spinach, berries, and yogurt.

Include a serving of fatty fish in your weekly menu.

Replace unhealthy snacks with nuts and seeds.

Add a side of steamed broccoli or spinach to your dinner.

Foods to Avoid for Better Skin

While including healthy foods for skin is essential, avoiding certain items is equally important. Sugary snacks, fried foods, and processed items can lead to breakouts and dullness. Limit alcohol and caffeine intake to keep your skin hydrated.

Conclusion

Healthy, glowing skin begins from within. By including these healthy foods for skin in your daily diet, you can achieve a radiant complexion naturally. Combine this diet with proper hydration and skincare, and you’ll be well on your way to looking and feeling your best. Your journey to glowing skin starts on your plate!

Visit the nearest hospital Dizziness, fast heartbeat, and increased fractures of the hip, wrist. Visit the nearest hospital for treatment Source/Page: (Ignatavicus et al., 2018), (Ignatavicus et al., 2018), (Ignatavicus et al., 2018), (Ignatavicus et al., 2018), (Ignatavicus et al., 2018), Laboratory Studies Laboratory tests were done to determine the cause of his shortness of breath, fatigue, and swelling of his feet. Tests were done to determine his blood sugar level, his sodium and potassium concentration levels. Arterial blood gas tests, estimated glomerular filtrate rate, NT-proBNP test, creatinine are also done. Hematology tests are done as hemoglobin transports oxygen to tissues. Red blood cell count provides data about oxygen transport. A deficiency of hemoglobin leads to hypoxemia. The normal male has a 6.11012/L(Ignatavicus et al., 2018). Mr. Black has a red blood count of 4.51012/ L, which is lower due to the production of excessive production of erythropoietin. Hemoglobin levels range from 14-18g/dL in males, with hematocrit levels ranging from 42-52% in males. Mr. Black had a 14.5g/dl hemoglobin level and a hematocrit level of 43% (Ignatavicus et al., 2018). The white blood cells normal count in healthy living is between 5-10109/L. His white blood cells count within the normal range of 9.8109/L; however, elevation to the more remarkable range will indicate a possible acute infection. Arterial blood gas tests assess gaseous exchange and perfusion as the partial pressure of end-tidal carbon dioxidethe PaCO2 level in a healthy adult between 20-40mmHg(Ignatavicus et al., 2018). The patient had a lower partial pressure of end-tidal carbon dioxide of 10mmHg, indicating he has breathing effectiveness and gas exchange changes. Diabetes mellitus is diagnosed by the blood glucose value and oral glucose tolerance level. The glycosylated hemoglobin value indicates the average blood glucose level with a fasting blood glucose level >100ml/dL. The patient had a high glucose level of about 199ml/dl, which is higher than the required one showing higher mortality levels and higher infection. A sodium range of 128mEq/24hr within the normal range of 40-250mEq/24hr(Ignatavicus et al., 2018). Increased sodium can lead to excessive salt intake, while low sodium intake leads to bleeding, shock, and prerenal kidney injury. Potassium levels in an average range person are between 3.5-5.0mEq/L (Ignatavicus et al., 2018), lower than the patients potassium content of 6mEq/L showing kidney disease. Creatinine abnormal findings when low creatinine is found leads to deterioration of the kidney with increased amounts leads to infections and diabetes mellitus. The creatinine range for healthy adults is 1-2g/24hr, with it being slightly lower in older adults. A 0.2 range with a previous of 0.5 is seen in the patient. Creatinine clearance is a measure of the glomerular filtrate rate(eGFR). When a creatinine test is done, an estimated eGFR is done based on the modified diet in the renal diseases(MDRD)study equation. The estimated eGFR for the MDRD is >60mL/min/1.73m2.The patients eGFR was 58mL/min/1.73m2(Ignatavicus et al., 2018), which was lower than the previous 60Ml/min/1.73m2. BNP levels on the blood plasma are done to determine the rate of heart failure. A BNP of 100ng/ml indicates heart failure with the highest rate reached 5000ngml (Ignatavicus et al., 2018), which Mr. Black has. The lower the BNP value shows the highest the survival level, and as age increases, the mortality rate increases. Chest X-ray is used for patients with pulmonary problems to evaluate chest status. It uses Standard imaging uses the post anterior and lateral views, or in portables examinations, it uses the anteroposterior view(Ignatavicus et al., 2018). Chest X-ray determines the size of the heart, lungs, and blood vessels. Diagnostic Mr. Black had no head deformities, with clear ears and no deviation of the nasal septum. His eyes had pupils that were round, equal, and reactive to light. His throat had no edema with aortic murmurs being noted; Mr. Black has lungs filled with fluid causing crackles and any air movement in the sacs like breathing. Mild wheezing is seen when exhaling. There is noted shortness of breath when he lies flat and on exertion. There is noted swelling of feet and ankles. The intermediary features manifest in the x-ray as peribronchial cuffing, indistinct vessels, and septal lines show the presence of pulmonary edema. The features X-ray shows determine the extent of pulmonary problems. The widened vascular pedicle, enlarged upper lobe vessels, and enlarged heart found in the early stages are considered pre-edema features(Assaad et al.,2017). The x-rays show increased chest pressures and fluid transudation as septal lines, peribronchial cuffing, and alveolar edema show negative pressure in the chest. Pulmonary edema has three severity stages: pulmonary vascular congestion, interstitial pulmonary edema, and alveolar edema. The features from the X-ray show acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema that is the same as for pulmonary capillary wedge pressures. Chest x-rays may not provide pulmonary edemas required progress: therefore, Lung CT scans are recommended. Medical Diagnosis Samples were taken to the laboratory, and the results were analyzed. The patient was found to have high levels of potassium, creatinine, high glucose levels, low red blood cells count, low partial end-tidal carbon dioxide and low estimated glomerular filtrate, and high levels of BNP. The high levels can lead to chronic kidney disease, heart failure, and pulmonary edema from the x-rays taken. Chronic kidney diseases lead to subdual declining of the kidneys function, leading to disturbances of fluid and electrolyte balance, disturbance in the acid-base balance, the build-up of nitrogen-based wastes, and kidney loss function. Chronic kidney takes place in three stages. Mr. Black having an estimated glomerular filtrate rate of 58ml/min has stage three chronic kidney disease. The damage to the nephron is more significant, and low waste removal is present. Treatments that cause nephron damage, especially diabetes and Hypertension, should continue(Ignatavicus et al., 2018). As the disease progresses, kidney function decreases as the urine output decreases, making the patient at risk of fluid overload with edema, pulmonary crackles, shortness of breath, and decreased heart sounds. Decreases in kidney function lead to the build-up of serum creatinine. An increase in potassium levels leads to changes in heart rate and rhythm due to irregular repolarization. Sodium is lost in urine during the early stages of the disease because fewer healthy nephrons reabsorb it. Chronic kidney disease leads to the production of uremia, which affects the entire gastrointestinal system. The enzyme urease in the mouth breaks down urea into ammonia, which is retained in the mouth (Ignatavicus et al., 2018), leading to peptic ulcers. Due to his existing gastro-esophageal reflux disease, which was diagnosed in 2010, the peptic ulcer worsens, leading to internal bleeding. Mr. Black has been suffering from Hypertension, which he was diagnosed in 2020, year 2009 he was diagnosed with asthma and Hyperlipidemia, and in 2011 he was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. His preexisting Hypertension from causes such as atherosclerosis leads to pressure damages to the glomerular capillaries (Shimamoto et al., 2014). Hypertension damages kidney arterioles reducing the circulation of blood through tissues. Fluid overload or blood vessel injury leads to pulmonary edema. The heart cannot remove blood from the left ventricle leading to increased pressure in the right atrium and blood vessels, leading to fluid crossing from the capillaries into the pulmonary tissue leading to edema. The patient had shortness of breath and crackles that had begun from the base of the lung. As the fluid level increases, the lungs level of fluid increases (Assaad et al., 2017). Heart failure is likely to occur because of the increased load due to fluid overload and Hypertension. The accumulation of uremia may lead to a uremic toxic effect on the myocardium. Patients with chronic kidney disease, pulmonary edema, and other cardiac and gastric diseases are less likely to respond to treatment. Nursing Care Plan Nursing of patients suffering from chronic kidney disease, pulmonary edema, and heart failure needs continuous evaluation, diagnosis, and accelerating treatment, avoiding the patients death by appropriately detecting the event and providing treatment to stabilize the patient. Patients with Pulmonary edema have impaired gas exchange due to excess fluid in the lungs and anxiety related to the sensation of suffocation and fear. Nursing management supplies the patients supplementary oxygen masks, raising the head to a sitting position, monitoring vital signs, using intravenous therapy and catheterization that allows urine to drain from the bladder. Pulse oximetry is monitored. Nurses help the patients relax to promote oxygenation and place them in a high Fowler position to enhance lung expansion and administer oxygen. The nurse records the morphine is administered and the amount administered, with persistent patient condition. Emergency pieces of equipment should be kept ready and vital signs checked for about 15-30 minutes, and record daily weight and report when weight gain is steady. Frequent mouth care to reduce the mucous membranes dryness and signs for increasing respiratory distress and edema should be assessed. Kidney chronic disease patients should be taught about carefully managing fluid volume, blood pressure, electrolytes, and other kidney-damaging diseases by following the defined drugs and nutrition therapies (Shimamoto et al., 2014). The drugs administered to patients should be adjusted correctly, and in case of any questions, the pharmacist should be consulted. Counseling to the patients should be done to reduce depression. Any abnormal finding in a patients urine undergoing a screening exam should be reported to the primary health care provider. Conclusion The patient was suffering from pulmonary edema. It is a condition in which the lungs fill with fluid, and the fluid collects in the air sacs making it difficult to breathe. The patient had been experiencing crackles, mild wheezing on exhalation, and shortness of breath when he laid down. Mr. Black had heart failure and chronic kidney disease, which lead to increased fluid in the lungs. References Assaad, S., Kratzert, W. B., Shelley, B., Friedman, M. B., & Perrino Jr, A. (2018).

Natural Heartburn Cures Against Acid Reflux

If there is one big culprit on why we suffer from heartburn, it is the food that we eat or the type of diet we maintain. Natural heartburn cures are find out more here effective in reversing the effects of acid reflux, but to be so, we must plan our diet carefully.

First off the list of natural heartburn cures is identifying foods which are in themselves acidic. This may include citrus fruits like oranges, lemons, and grapefruits. When taken in moderation, citrus fruits will provide us with a natural source of vitamin C and will help in cleansing our stomach. But too much of sour fruits may lead to hyperacidity. Tomato, although good for the skin and may have anti-cancer properties, can also trigger acid reflux if more than needed is eaten. With less of these foods in our diet, your fight against heartburn will be more effective.

Recognizing which foods in our diet contain an overload of fat is another one of the natural heartburn cures that is hard to miss. Fatty foods take time to process, thus necessitating more production of acids in the stomach so that these can be properly digested. Fatty foods also lessen the effectivity of the esophageal sphincter to function properly in preventing the food and acid in our stomach to come back up in our esophagus. Combining too much acid and a relaxed sphincter muscle is a sure formula for acid reflux.

Up next in the roster of food to be wary of are food stuffs which are hard to digest. Hard-to-grind foods tend to linger in the stomach longer and require more gastric juices produced. Spicy foods also activate stomach acid overload. So be very careful with those hot chili whatnots that you put in your mouth. Starchy and sugary foods also are acid generators, so better keep them at bay.

Finally we get to the liquids in the natural heartburn cures food inventory. The favorite morning brew is one beverage you need to watch out for. As you can see, coffee is naturally acidic and if you take too much of it you’ll have more acid in your stomach than you wish for. Definitely sodas and alcoholic drinks are included in the no-no list. And beer! Studies have shown that beer can in fact turn your acid content twice over in as little as sixty minutes. Milk, unfortunately, is also on the no-no list, but this is only for those who frequently experience heartburn. Drinking milk before bedtime does calm the stomach, but for a hyperacidic, this may later trigger the production of stomach acid and cause an acid build-up which will lead to heartburn.

Too much too soon is also an maxim you need to abide by, and this in reference to how you eat. No matter what you eat, even if you avoid the foods listed above, if you overstuff yourself your stomach will be working doubly hard to grind the foodstuff. And for this, more acids will be produced.

Now, that’s a long list of DON’TS! It seems like there are no more foods left to be eaten. Despair not! Just because those foods are in the natural heartburn cures’ watch list, it doesn’t mean that you can’t have them anymore. What is important is that you have to set up a healthy-eating plan first if you want to get control of your acid reflux problem.

First on the natural heartburn cures’ DO’s list is to identify which in your current foods elicit acidic reaction. The list above is your guideline. If you identify certain foods cause heartburn when you eat them, put a red mark on them and avoid them as much as possible. In no time, you will be able to classify which ones are good for you and which are not. Keep a diary or journal to keep tabs of everything you eat and note any incidence of heartburn.
