Reference Guide for Doctors
“As a doctor I found this book to be engaging and insightful, and its holistic approach compelling. As powerful for readers as the detailed information on the effects of exocrine pancreatic insufficiency, and the poorly understood aspects of its management, was the personal story behind it. Sharing each moment in the author’s story, from the lowest of lows, to the road to well-being was a lesson of understanding and hope, not only for those with EPI but for anyone affected by chronic illness.”
It can be used as a reference guide for an issue that is often missed in diagnoses, and yet affects millions of people. Pancreas damage can cause many symptoms, often not immediately linked to the pancreas.
- Crucial medical tests to consider for earlier pancreas damage diagnosis, particularly exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI) or diabetes 3c
- Important health and preventative maintenance medical tests to consider, some of which are not widely known, such as urine metabolite and comprehensive stool tests
- Dozens of downstream pancreas damage symptoms, some perhaps unexpected, grouped into logical categories
- Food, water, supplements, and medicine to consider for healing
- Information and actions to help lower bodily insults, inflammation, and oxidative stress
- Information on potential root causes of pancreas damage, vicious cycles, and snowball health impacts
- Practical steps for your patients to help the overall healing process
Potentially useful to any doctor who:
- Has difficult to diagnose patients, especially due to a wide range of symptoms
- Specializes in pancreas issues such as gastroenterologists and endocrinologists
- Wants ways to spot pancreas damage earlier
- Specializes in any stomach, esophagus, gallbladder, or intestinal issues
- Specializes in holistic, functional or integrative medicine
- Specializes in chronic or autoimmune ailments
- Specializes in secondary mitochondrial dysfunction
- Specializes in myalgic encephalomyelitis or Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS)
- Is interested in some helpful additional blood, saliva, urine, and stool tests perhaps not considered before for their patients
- Is interested in how specific food and supplementation actions can help in the healing process
- Is interested in an example of the effects of metabolic pathway issues
- Specializes in anti-aging or life extension
- Is interested in an example of metabolomics or biochemistry in practice
The long lasting impact on metabolism and mitochondrial functioning from nutrient deficiencies is often overlooked, and root causes and bodily insults that cause oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction and microbiome imbalances are frequently not addressed, to the detriment of the patient.
