| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Dr. Burg's Healthy Keto and Interminate Fasting Podcast, where Dr. |
| 0:07.7 | Burg takes you on the journey for the truth about getting healthy and losing healthy weight. |
| 0:22.5 | So today we're going to talk about, excuse me one second, |
| 0:25.8 | hmm, geez, chronic phlegm in the back of your throat. So to really figure this problem out, |
| 0:33.2 | you want to think like an engineer, not as a medical professional, because when you do research |
| 0:39.1 | on this, you're going to quickly find out that it's all about, again, suppressing the symptoms |
| 0:44.9 | and even classifying these conditions based on their symptoms. So it makes this symptom sound |
| 0:51.6 | like a disease. And unfortunately, they're not going deep enough into the root causes of these |
| 0:57.9 | issues. And then also letting you know what are the more common causes to these symptoms. |
| 1:05.2 | So what I'm going to do is I'm going to take one symptom, chronic mucus generation in your throat |
| 1:10.4 | and just trace it back to the most likely cause. Now with this chronic mucus production, |
| 1:17.1 | you can have a post nasal drip. You can have chronic coughing more at night than during the day, |
| 1:22.3 | which I'm going to cover why that is. You can definitely have hoarseness or scratchy throat. |
| 1:27.6 | You can also experience the sensation like a lump in your throat or something stuck in your throat |
| 1:32.2 | and you're not sure what it is. Or even a sore throat when you really don't have an infection. |
| 1:36.2 | So to take an engineering point of view, they're going to look at a cause and effect relationship. |
| 1:41.8 | They're going to really look at the logic behind this problem. Instead of just taking this |
| 1:49.1 | tip of the iceberg symptom and then matching a medication for it to suppress it. Now you could |
| 1:54.9 | have an allergy. You could have a virus in your sonuses producing this mucus. But a more likely |
| 2:01.9 | cause would be something related to two other symptoms, which I'm going to get to the root cause. |
| 2:08.1 | But one would be gourd, which stands for gastroesophageal reflux disease, where you have acid coming |
| 2:16.9 | up through this valve at the top of the stomach and it's coming up through your esophagus. |
