Gerald Brienza hello I was just diagnosed with Barrett’s. Any recommendation for swallowing. It’s so uncomfortable and painful just to swallow my saliva. It’s awful. I already started myself on a alkaline diet. You just got rid of it with the above information u just shared? Thanks

Genien Galiano : glad to help. Try a heaping table spoon of baking soda in high PH water (I use 10 by alkalife.) also, I’ve had great success with intermittent fasting. Start with 16 fast, 8 eating. Then work up to 20 and 4. Take your PPI at least 1 hour before eating anything and get a micronutrient blood test (not covered) to assess your vitamin and mineral levels and Deficiencies. Never be “full” don’t eat 3 hours before bed and use “bed risers” to elevate the head of your bed at least 4” . Good luck to you.

What is utermitent fasting please .tia

This video sounds very scary Omg

Lisa Huhn : hi Lisa. Intermittent fasting is eating all of your food in a small widow if time with only water in the fasting period. Normally, one starts with 16 hours fasting with 2 meals in the remaining 8 hours. Gradually narrowing that eating window to just 4 hours. Many videos on u tube you should check out. Any other questions, I’ll be happy to answer for you.

I developed mine from sleeping on stomach. Only if I had known how fragile the human body is on the inside especially, the Gastroesophageal junction , I would've slept on my back in a incline position since day one. Unfortunately , its too late for me and I'm only 27.

I HAD Barrets but on my last Edg, they said it was not showing up. What I did was try to eat an alkaline diet the best way that I could. I would eat a little meat here and there but not every day. I make sure I drink a spinach , Kale, Chard smoothie for breakfast in the mornings, add a little piece of lemon for taste. Some mornings I would eat some oatmeal no sugar but add fruit or a little honey for taste. For lunch I will maybe eat some fruit: watermelon, cantaloupe , or just a bag of grapes. For dinner, I would eat maybe a piece of salmon, broccoli , steamed zucchini, squash and for my drink, a spinach and kale smoothie with a pinch of lemon in it. When I make the smoothies , I usually do not add ice, remember I am not eating for taste but for health! I do not drink nothing but water, when I can I drink alkaline water. NO Coffee, Teas, Sodas, or any other beverage. Water only. I try my best to snack on pecans, walnuts, and some seeds. I cant lie people, sometimes I also snack on a small bag of chips maybe twice a month, I HUMAN okay! The chips are NOT recommended. Try your best to stay away from the sugars , pies, cakes, honey buns, cookies, candy ect.. it is enough sugar in your fruits. NO pork, No processed meats, and try to stay away from bread if possible. Note: You will drop off the pounds, maybe look like you did when you were in high school. Your blood pressure will be lower, and usually your energy will be high depending on what other medications you take.

@@Pluto-vd9fx How are you now? Are you ok? Please answer?

@@Pluto-vd9fx Trying to follow your advice

@@luckylo I hope you are still with us. I guess most of the people who commented on this video are no longer with us. Since they no longer respond back when you reach out to them. Very sad. For me I'm trying my best to survive. I limited my food consumption and changed my diet and also sleep at a 35 degree incline position. It has been 1 year 6 months since my diagnosis. How are you doing ?

Yes this is completely normal for doctor symposiums and Ceu courses believe it or not.

How can you even eat while listening to someone talk about an ugly condition?

the2wheelcowboy .... but the suppressants are what causes / makes the problem worse in the first place.

I am on 80 mg of omeprazole every day and it is not working. I was also on 300 mg of zantac with it and that didn't touch my gerd.

Did acid reflux cause your BE?

I'm suffering from GERD too and I'm scared about having barrett's :( what will you do now that you have barrett's?

Ty buildz Hello I just got diagnosed with Barrets as well . I have such a hard time swallowing. It’s so uncomfortable and hurts all the time. Any suggestions on easing that awful swallowing problem. I mean just swallowing my saliva is terrible. I’m very familiar with alkaline diet which I have started already.

Genien Galiano the doctor that did my endoscopy in 2015 told me I had it but it was very mild. Luckily I haven’t had that much issues swallowing besides popcorn and a few other things that stick to my throat from time to time.

Bless you 🙏🏼

No you are not

Get this Checked please. Requires a scope to properly diagnose.

Omg same , i had gerd since i was 15 and now i have Barrett’s at 20 :/

@@lovelyrissa195 damn, we’re young af.. usually people gets Barrett’s in older ages

Did your Barrett's get confirmed via endoscopy? And what kind of symptoms did you have leading up to your diagnosis? I think I may have that and I have an endoscopy scheduled at the end of the month

@@davidcloud8789 same with me! I’ve had acid reflux since as long as I can remember however I didn’t know about the diagnosis till later. Then, just very recently I found out I have Barrett’s esophagus- I’m only eighteen years old.

don't they do ablation on these young cases?
