It does." ~ William James Visit www.healthspan.ca 71 Mountainview Rd. N. Georgetown, ON 905.873.8729 Julia Fountain, BSc, ND A:Your first lines of treatment arelifestyle-based. These include eating less at each meal, eating slower, minimizing trigger foods and losing weight. Heartburn often occurs when the "clamp" between the esophagus and stomach doesn't close properly. This results in stomach acid travelling into the esophagus. Certain foods are known to relax this clamp. Studies show that limiting caffeine and alcohol will improve heartburn in up to 30% of people. Combined with a low carbohydrate diet, up to 70% of people improve. Weight loss, even as few as 3-4 pounds, can decrease pressure on the stomach which can help. Food intolerances can be a common cause and are tested as part of a naturopathic treatment plan. A Naturopathic Doctor can help you develop an organized, step-by-step treatment plan to get to the root of the problem. Q:I ' v e been ge t t i nga lo t o f hea r tbu rn l a t e l y. Wha t can I do? Q:I have been separated from myhusband for several months but we still live in the same house. I want to buy another house but someone told me my husband could claim one-half of it? Is this true? A:If you and your husband havedecided to separate you would be considered to be living separate and apart in the matrimonial home. Any assets you acquire after your separation are your assets and your husband can not claim an interest in them. The new house would be your asset. Be careful though, as you will likely not be able to obtain a mortgage unless you have a Separation Agreement and have divided your property and settled other financial issues such as support. The bank will require a copy of your Separation Agreement before they will advance you the money for your new house. SUSAN S. POWELL SUSAN S.
