The selected Health Tip is summarized below.  An audio clip of the tip as presented by Dr. Leah on the Chat With Women radio show is available at the end of the tip.


Low HCL Impaired Digestion Weakened Immune System

"Since 70% of our immune system comes from our digestive system processes, it's very important to make sure you are digesting AND absorbing properly.  If you eat and then feel like your food is just sitting there, have burping or belching after a meal and get heartburn you probably have low HCL (hydrochloric acid). 

HCL is the primary enzyme in the stomach along with pepsin.  A great majority of people have low stomach acid (HCL) and therefore have impaired digestion, absorption and immunity to diseases! 

Come on in and I'll assess your digestive status so you can have a healthy flu free winter!"
