Of all the over-the-counter medications available, one of the most popular groups is the antacid. These come in chewable tablets, capsules and liquids. They come in a variety of flavors and strengths. Many of the previously prescription strength antacids are now available over-the-counter as well. These medications are used by millions of people on a regular basis to relieve indigestion, gas, bloating, heartburn and acid reflux. Unfortunately, the vast majority of those using these products dont need them at all. Most people suffering from indigestion, gas, bloating, heartburn and acid reflux do not, in fact, have excess stomach acid as is often portrayed, but rather the opposite and their symptoms are being caused by a lack of stomach acid instead. Millions of people suffering from indigestion, gas, bloating, heartburn and acid reflux are addicted to antacids and have taken them for years. When abused these medications can produce several nasty side effects of the long run. When we neutralize the natural digestive acids and natural digestive enzymes present in the stomach, our digestion of foods, especially protein foods, is greatly reduced. Over time, this can lead to protein deficiency and all the problems that go along with that. Antacids and protein digestion are a bad combination, leading to premature aging, and many other problems. Antacids & calcium absorption difficulties is another area where we need to be concerned. Calcium, one of the most difficult minerals for the body to absorb at the cellular level, needs to be acidic for effective absorption. Antacids & calcium absorption therefore is a bad combination. These are just some of the potential dangers of antacids. Other problems include stomach irritation and even ulcers of the stomach due to over alkalinity. The stomach was designed to be an acidic organ and when the acid levels are constantly disturbed, the lining of the stomach becomes irritated from a lack of natural stomach acid, often called hydrochloric acid, and can form ulcers. While digestion actually begins in the mouth with an enzyme found in the saliva, the majority of digestion begins in the stomach. Proteins and minerals from foods must have the natural digestive aid of betaine hydrochloride or hydrochloric acid. This powerful acid, secreted through the stomach wall, starts the breakdown of protein and begins to work on acidifying minerals such as calcium, for better absorption. Once the acid cycle of the stomach begins, other natural digestive enzymes such as protease enzymes, amylase enzymes and lipase enzymes start to form and will play a great role in the digestion of fats and carbohydrates farther down the digestive tract. When the volume of acid being produced in the stomach is insufficient for proper protein digestion symptoms of bloating, gas and heartburn are often the result as the protein foods are actually fermenting at 100 degrees of body temperature without sufficient natural digestive aids to complete the job. Without enough acids, other enzymes such as protease, amylase, and lipase, needed for the digestion of other foods, will also be impaired. When we run for those chalky preparations in tablet or liquid form to relieve the classic symptoms of digestive issues such as indigestion, gas, bloating, heartburn and acid reflux, we neutralize all of the existing acid production in the stomach, stopping the formation of the protease, amylase and lipase enzyme formation. Enzyme products have been available for many years as an aid to better digestion. With the advent and intense marketing of antacids by various drug companies, many people are no longer aware of the natural digestive enzymes. The natural digestive aids come in two basic formulations, one being whole enzymes and the second being what is referred to as enzyme precursor agents, the raw materials needed by the body to manufacture whole enzymes on its own. We prefer the later as the long-term use of whole enzyme products, except under certain specific conditions, can cause a dependency upon them. Our goal should be to create an environment wherein the body can manufacture natural digestive enzymes on its own. In order to do this, we must first re-establish the natural acid levels of the stomach. Supplementing the digestive system with betaine hydrochloride, which is natural stomach acid, does this very effectively. This will address protein digestion, which must occur in an acid environment. It will also set the stage for the formation of other enzymes as well. The next step is to provide the enzyme precursor agents that the digestive system will use to manufacture the natural digestive enzymes needed to complete the digestive cycle. These natural digestive remedies could also include licorice, chamomile and peppermint extracts as all have been shown to improve digestion.

The End of Control & The Future of Content: The tough issue of control emerges, again and again, as the key contention point within TV companies, publishers, record labels, and broadcasters: How can a commercial venture that is based on so-called intellectual property thrive and prosper in an environment that seems to continuously and progressively remove control from the creators/owners/providers of content, and hands it over to the people formerly known as consumers (aka the users), effectively making them more powerful every single day? But the reality is that every click inadvertently makes another case for the consumers ever-increasing rise in importance. Within all the conversations I have had about things like commercial content versus shared content, about the read-only or the read-write web, and about copyright versus Fair Use, the crucial question always seems to boil down to WHERE IS THE CONTROL HERE, ie, questions such as Who will control this new media universe and How much control do I need to run a revenue-generating business? www.endofcontrol.com This even occurred on March 2, 2009 http
