Torrance Memorial Miracle of Living Lecture - Your GI Tract

Miracle of Living Health Education Lecture Series - Your GI Tract (The past, present and future)

Digestive disorders are a source of irritation and discomfort that cause some people to drastically limit their lifestyles and frequently miss work. For others, the disorders may be extremely crippling and even fatal. Yet fixes can be as simple as making informed lifestyle changes or taking over-the-counter remedies. Find out about the causes, latest tests and treatments for various GI problems, including reflux, celiac disease, peptic ulcers, diverticulitis, constipation, gluten allergies and irritable bowel syndrome. Hear what the future holds for patients with ulcerative colitis and Crohn's Disease, and what exciting new medicines are on the horizon for chronic hepatitis. Learn the differences between food allergies and sensitivities, and if probiotics are right for you. For more information, please call: 310-517-4711.
