         <title>GERD Help - Anti-Reflux Surgery An Alternative Cure for GERD</title>
         <link>http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/GERD-Help---Anti-Reflux-Surgery-An-Alternative-Cure-for-GERD/2987394</link>
         <description>Millions of Americans are affected by gastroesophageal reflux disease or GERD. Its painful recurrence sometimes affect the quality of life of the sufferer as it occurs when the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) is not properly functioning. The food being digested along with some stomach acids could not be kept contained in the stomach and instead spills out into the esophagus. As a result, the stomach acid spreads out causing heartburn and even damage to the esophagus, which can lead to cancer. Appropriate GERD help becomes necessary, which may also call for an antireflux surgery in more serious cases.

Aside from the use of traditional medicines like antacids, proton pump inhibitors, promotility agents, and histamine (H2)-receptor antagonists, this surgical method of treating serious cases of acid reflux called antireflux surgery can be performed by using minimally invasive procedure (MIP).

MIP is less complicated than the normal open surgery since it can even be performed right in the doctor's office by way of specialized techniques. This type of surgery results to negligible scarring and reduces recuperation period.

In the treatment of GERD, antireflux surgery aims to wrap a portion of the stomach around the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) through surgical procedure.  **End Summary**  Topics: <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/Anti-Reflux+Surgery" rel="tag">Anti-Reflux Surgery</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/Alternative+Cure+for+GERD" rel="tag">Alternative Cure for GERD</a>]]><![CDATA[<p>]]> About the Author: <![CDATA[<br>]]> Alvin Hopkinson is a leading health researcher in the area of natural remedies and &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.refluxremoval.com&quot;&gt;acid reflux treatment&lt;/a&gt; .

         <title>Removal of Kidney Stones - Naturally and Safely Pass Kidney Stones</title>
         <link>http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Removal-of-Kidney-Stones---Naturally-and-Safely-Pass-Kidney-Stones/2842845</link>
         <description>There are different methods used for the removal of kidney stones, other than surgery. Generally, surgery should be the last resort for eliminating kidney stones. However, this is not always the case. Make sure you look into some of the alternatives for removing kidney stones before you agree to have surgery done.

The removal of kidney stones can be done naturally in many cases. For example, increasing the amount of water that you drink is a great way for you to dilute the kidney stones. The increase in liquid will also increase the amount of urine your body produces, thus the kidney stones will be eliminated from the body a lot faster than if you were not drinking more water.

Increase foods that have water soluble fibers in them. This will help your body speed up the breaking down process of the kidney stones. Let’s face it, the faster they can be broken down the faster you are pain free!

Herbal teas are also thought to be extremely beneficial when you are trying to naturally dissolve kidney stones. Before you consider using any of these teas, you should get the approval of your doctor.  **End Summary**  Topics: <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/kidney+stones" rel="tag">kidney stones</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/dissolve+kidney+stones" rel="tag">dissolve kidney stones</a>]]><![CDATA[<p>]]> About the Author: <![CDATA[<br>]]> Alvin Hopkinson is a leading health researcher in the area of natural remedies and &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.nomorekidneystone.com&quot;&gt;kidney stones treatment&lt;/a&gt; .

         <title>High Blood Pressure Diet - Implementing An Effective Diet to Control Hypertension</title>
         <link>http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/High-Blood-Pressure-Diet---Implementing-An-Effective-Diet-to-Control-Hypertension/2842840</link>
         <description>There are three major contributing factors involved in the development of high blood pressure. These are stress, weight, and salt, which need to be addressed properly. Common as a mitigating factor to heart and blood vessel diseases, that constitute the leading causes of death in America.

An anti-high blood pressure diet is the most significant recommendation in addressing the ill effects of these three major factors. To come up with this kind of diet will mean regulating the often abused salt, fat and alcohol intakes. Hence, let us examine these three substances in order to understand why their excesses can cause high blood pressure. 

1. Salt

Sodium is necessary in order to have good health. The suggested daily limit is around 2,400 milligrams, which is about the equivalent of a teaspoon of salt. Nonetheless, we tend to forget the fact that salt was already incorporated in the foods we often consume particularly the processed and packaged products. To avoid excessive salt intakes, always read the label for salt content. These include condiments, baked foods, soups, canned and frozen foods; as well as smoked and cured meats.

Instead of using salt as a condiment, try using fresh or dry herbs.  **End Summary**  Topics: <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/High+Blood+Pressure" rel="tag">High Blood Pressure</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/High+Blood+Pressure+Diet" rel="tag">High Blood Pressure Diet</a>]]><![CDATA[<p>]]> About the Author: <![CDATA[<br>]]> Alvin Hopkinson is a leading natural health educator in the area of natural remedies and high blood pressure treatment.

         <title>Treatment for Gout swelling - What to Do?</title>
         <link>http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Treatment-for-Gout-swelling---What-to-Do-/2842835</link>
         <description>Increasing the amount of uric acid can be very dangerous because it can lead to crystallization. When it does, it builds up in the joints causing swelling, inflammation and worst of all, extreme pain. This is due to the failure of any of the two processes occurring inside the body.

First, it maybe because the body cannot process some protein chemicals known as purine, which leads it to break down into uric acid. Another cause is the kidneys inability to excrete or eliminate excess uric acid. This condition is identified as gout, one known type of arthritis.

Because of the occurrence of its signs and symptoms, people often seek treatment for gout swelling.

Oftentimes, people get affected by gout when they reach the age between 40 to 50, and when women start to undergo menopausal. However, men are commonly affected than women. Wrist, knee, elbow, foot and ankles are only some of the body parts mostly affected by gout.

You can also easily differentiate it from the other types of arthritis because normally, it concerns the big toe. Treatment for gout swelling can be classified in two ways and sufferers are obliged to follow it in order to feel better.  **End Summary**  Topics: <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/gout+swelling" rel="tag">gout swelling</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/joints+causing+swelling" rel="tag">joints causing swelling</a>]]><![CDATA[<p>]]> About the Author: <![CDATA[<br>]]> Alvin Hopkinson is a leading researcher in the area of natural remedies and &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.goutremoval.com&quot;&gt;gout treatment&lt;/a&gt; .

         <title>High Blood Pressure Symptoms - The Common Symptoms To Watch out For</title>
         <link>http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/High-Blood-Pressure-Symptoms---The-Common-Symptoms-To-Watch-out-For/2719043</link>
         <description>Of the millions of Americans suffering from high blood pressure, the condition goes undetected for lack of evident symptoms. Dubbed as the “silent killer”, the disorder will be discovered only if medical examination will be performed for a different health disorder. In worst cases, discovery will take place only if the hypertension has reached its peak, which is usually the critical level.

When the diastolic blood pressure (lower number) reaches 75 in a particular day and jumps up to more than 100 the next day, the symptom of high blood pressure exists. However, this is not the usual case since blood pressure creeps up gradually over the years where the body adjusts to the changes. Henceforth, the normal feeling is still there until your doctor discovers that your blood pressure level is too high.

Nevertheless, some of these symptoms may frequently recur, enough to suspect that your blood pressure is beginning to mount:

1. Headaches, feeling depressed without particular reason and always tense - the increase in the adrenal gland called adrenal medulla results to the elevation of blood pressure.

         <title> Gout Massage Treatment - Relieving the Pain</title>
         <link>http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/-Gout-Massage-Treatment---Relieving-the-Pain/2632744</link>
         <description>Gout is a condition that commonly affects the joints due to high uric acid contents of the blood. Increased serum uric acid is caused by ingestion of foods high in purine broken down by means of the poor excretion of the kidney. It is usually manifested on the big toe. The symptoms include inflammation, swelling, and pain due to the excess crystallized uric acid that forms deposits at the tendons, tissues, bones, and joints. Gout can be treated in several ways like medicines, use of herbs, diet and lifestyle modification.

There are also some alternative ways to manage the condition and one of them is by means of gout massage treatment. This treatment uses a combination of essential oils. However, in the absence of these oils, the boiled mixture of 3-4 tablespoons of vinegar and 8-9 petals of rose may be used instead. Also, you may use a mixture of half cup apple cider and three cups of hot water as a warm footbath. These can be very effective in massaging joints and the body area affected by gout.

It is also important to know the proper procedure and the right area that must be focused by gout massage treatment.  **End Summary**  Topics: <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/gout+massage" rel="tag">gout massage</a>]]> <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.articlesnatch.com/topic/gout+massage+treatment" rel="tag">gout massage treatment</a>]]><![CDATA[<p>]]> About the Author: <![CDATA[<br>]]> Alvin Hopkinson is a leading researcher in the area of natural remedies and &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.goutremoval.com&quot;&gt;gout treatment&lt;/a&gt; .

It contains a lot of anthocyanins that function for decreasing inflammation and minimizing painful swelling. Likewise, it contains antioxidants, which are essential in helping decrease the force or incidence of attacks. They achieve this by reducing the levels of uric acid in the body. This can be bought as an herbal tea orsupplement at nutritional stores.

2. Nettle Root – This is one of the gout herbal remedies known to be effective. It is also called as “stinging nettle” due to its throbbing pain, which helps reduce uric acid when you touch it.
