ACID SUPPRESSION THEREPY AND HIP FRACTURES

9/27/2011

 
Well controlled studies are now  confirming  the fact  that  acid suppressing medications leads to incresed   hip fractures .The  mechanism is simple .. the acid is needed to absorb the calcium  from the diet or the supplements .Not only the calcium is not absorbed neither is  iron ,zinc and other trace elements  needed for bone health .
                     These  medications   do wonders when taken for an  ulcer in the stomatch or the duodenum,but the need is only for    4-12 weeks not months !
                    Symptoms  of heartburns  are rarely secondary to too much acid ,more often they are  due to too little acid  which results in  maldigestion and putrifaction of the food .
     SO TRY TO CUT BACK/STOP  THE ACID SUPPRESSERS  YOU MAY BE ON,CLEAN UP  YOUR DIET !!
