Question 1

when i eat fats and sugar, my heart beats rapidly and i get chest pains, what should i eat to cleanse my colon and prevent this?

Accepted Answer

Several answers: Consider high blood sugar.  Also, sometimes low chest pains with eating fats or sugars with a high fat content can indicate a gallbladder problem.

The concept of "cleansing the colon" is problematic. No clear study has shown a benefit or even what a "toxin" is.
 That being said, i believe that good colon throughput is important and healthful. Goal 25-35g fiber daily. Consider bran buds.

Accepted Answer

Get eval: Tough to say, but most likely you have some "heart burn" or GI issues causing your heart/chest pain.  However it is always important to rule out cardiac causes, which on a rare occasion can occur as the blood increases to your stomach with eating/digestion, and can cause a decrease flow to your heart, thus causing some ischemic related pains. Get an eval, ...Best wishes.

Accepted Answer

See your Dr: There are several conditions that could cause your symptoms, and I would recommend you see your Dr to get a thorough history and physical.  Instead of worrying about what it "could" be, go see a Dr and have your symptoms further evaluated, get a physical and possible lab work, and get treated!  The good news is that this is something that can be treated so that you don't suffer in pain!

Guilt?: Don't discount guilt as a factor but, alternatively, you may be having acid reflux with esophagitis.  Try not to eat or drink anything within 3 hours of bedtime, elevated the head of  your bed with bricks/blocks, and consider an OTC med like ranitidine or omeprazole.  PS, ibuprofen,which you list, can make your symptoms worse.

Question 7

Accepted Answer

Gastritis: This is not a characteristic of gastritis because of the location of the pain.I would be concerned about esophageal dysfunction, inflammation, spasm, or other esophageal pathology causing this complaint. This is an important symptom and I recommend an evaluation by a gastroenterologist for diagnosis and treatment advice.
