Human digestive system glycoprotein called haptocorrin which is a binding protein to vitamin B. It binds with the vitamin in order to carry it safely through the acidic content of the stomach. When it reaches the duodenum, pancreatic enzymes break down the glycoprotein and free the vitamin which then binds with intrinsic factor. Food enters the mouth where the first stage in the digestive process takes place, with the action of the tongue and the secretion of saliva. The tongue is a fleshy and muscular sensory organ, and the very first sensory information is received via the taste buds in the papillae on
Chronic airway-digestive inflammatory disease Chronic airway-digestive inflammatory disease Sinus disease, allergies, and asthma have been shown to be intimately related through recent research. Moreover, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), laryngopharyngeal reflux disease (LPRD) and/or snoring or sleep apnea are often present as well. “Chronic Airway-Digestive Inflammatory Disease” (CAID) is a phrase which has been coined by Dr. Jordan S. Josephson, M.D., F.A.C.S. and Dr. Jens Ponikeau, M.D. to describe this very complex set of problems which are caused by inflammation. This term was first described in a book entitled Sinus Relief Now .CAID directly affects the upper respiratory system (the nose and the sinuses), the
