#nutritiondocs #sinusitis #ndr Carl B. has been battling his chronic sinusitis for eight years and has consulted more than 50 doctors. His paranasal and frontal sinuses are inflamed, resulting in severe headaches and a permanently mucousy nose. Carl B. also has exocrine pancreatic insufficiency, i.e. a weakness of the pancreas, and lactose intolerance. If left untreated, both of these not only cause stomach pain and diarrhea, but also ensure that the mucous membranes in his sinuses remain inflamed. The countermeasures are tough: Nutrition docs Jörn Klasen advises the 32-year-old to abstain from alcohol for life and prescribes digestive enzymes with every meal. And: Carl B. should now eat five to six times a day instead of just twice as before. Lactose-free dishes made from lots of vegetables and whole grains, as well as fermented milk products. Plus anti-inflammatory, bitter ingredients that are supposed to work against his chronic inflammation. A daily cup of bitter wormwood tea with a piece of dark chocolate. Will the professional soldier be able to achieve his personal goal of a symptom-free future? 00:00 - Chronic sinusitis 01:43 - Defective pancreas 02:43 - How severe is the inflammation? 04:17 - Symptoms after eating 05:10 - Lifelong abstinence from alcohol 05:48 - Another problem: lactose intolerance 06:26 - What does the nutrition log show? 07:23 - These foods are supposed to help 08:36 - How is the diet change going? 09:56 - Call for help to Doc Klasen 12:14 - Final discussion on the practice boat A film by NDR More information on the topic: Nutrition for chronic sinusitis: Strengthen the immune system https://www.ndr.de/sinusitis106.html Inflamed sinuses: What helps with sinusitis? https://www.ndr.de/sinusitis102.html Photo credit: Imago Images, Picture Alliance ___________________________________________________ ARD GESUND with Dr. Julia Fischer is a YouTube channel of ARD GESUND
