I was having some problems and got an endo and colonoscopy. they found a small polyp, nothing crazy, and removed it, and all else was clear. but with my endo, turns out I have barett's esophagus. thankfully they caught it early, and now that I'm on protonix every day my symptoms with heartburn are gone. doc said it's a bad thing to have because oftentimes people don't even have the symptoms I did (light, albeit steady acid reflux), because it's my lower esophagus. said your stomach acids basically cook your esophagus and oftentimes you don't know you've got cancer until it's too late.

one thing that helped more than any is eating carnivore, plus i rarely eat more than once a day. my bowel movements are hard and healthy and regular unless I divert from my diet and eat something with alot of carbs and/or sugar. anything processed, especially after dark, and i'm awake half the night on the toilet starting at exactly 3 am.

we early millennials/gen x'ers really did grow up eating shite for food. I remember coming up the people on the TV said don't dare eat eggs, ruminant meat, real butter, or cook with animal fats. use vegetable oil spread instead. pop a meal in the microwave; it's healthy because the package says low fat. don't cook with beef tallow, cook with seed oils, and have that processed poison from subway: it's healthy because it's got lettuce on it and it's a sandwich, not a burger, etc.

the fact that we are dying earlier across the board for the first time in a hundred years and young people's guts are ate up with cancer, and yet we're still going by the food pyramid that big food and their bitch boy the fda puts out, and nobody questions it, is madness. it's the definition of insanity.

there's no such thing as an essential carbohydrate or sugar. outside of high performance athletes, you can go the rest of your life without carbs, and nobody, I mean nobody, needs refined sugar to survive. you do however need sodium and protein or you'll die.

and I know this will get downvoted, but the average everyday american doesn't NEED 3 full meals a day, let alone snacks with it. in that case, our digestive system is the only one that never gets a break: it's churning up the trash poison that we put into it every day all day and when we sleep. we eat too much, and we eat poison, while they tell us to eat more of the same crap that's causing it.
