BETTER HEALTH
BY DR.. Logan Clendening-

THERE has long been known
l. condition OF herniation of
the abdominal organs through
the diaphragm.
The diaphragm Is the muscle
that lies between the chest and
the abdomen, separating of
two sets OF organs.
II moves up and down in
breathing and Is probably the
most important muscle used 10
alternately expand and collapse
the lungs In respiration.
OF course IL must be air tight
and there is some mechanical
difficulty about this at the
point where the 'esophagus goes
through IL 10 join with the
stomach.
Some times the place of
opening through which the ESQ.,
phagus goes, gives way, allow
ing the stomach and some OF
the intestines TO 60 up into
the chest.
This is the condition OF dia-
phragmatic hernia.
OUT the X-ray investigators,
~ in watching great numbers
OF people who are swallowing
opaque meals, found that quite
a large percentage who could
not be said TO have a dia-
phragmatic hernia, have a high
placement OF the esophagus so
that part of the stomach, espe-
cially when distended. Is found
about the diaphragm in the
lower part of the chest.
This is called hiatus hernia
and probably five per cent of
the human race is more or less
affected in this way.
1t can easily be seen that the
abdominal distention of preg-
nancy would predispose to this
condition.
Whenever any Of these hiatus
hernia folk eat a little too
much the stomach rises above
the diaphragm and a cough or
little extra pressure brings
acid stomach contents up the
relaxed esophagus into the back
. of the throat, constituting heart
burn.
