Everybody has expereinced stomach upset, which is short lived and goes away. Some seniors experience stomach pain, discomfort over time. It often feels and has pain like and ulcer but the diagnostic testing shows it is not an ulcer. The symptoms although experienced by the senior are subclinical, do not show up on testing by the Medical Doctor. The family of the senior call it indigestion. The clinical staff call it non ulcer dyspepsia. This means the senior has persistent episodes of stomach distress, sometimes with abdominal pain and nausea. This occurs often after eating, and nobody knows what causes it. Dieticians chalk it up to an extraorinarily sensitive stomach. A long time folk remedy for upset stomach is bananas. A banana per day over time is said to help relieve the pain and settle the stomach. Ronald Hoffman MD author of seven weeks to a settled stomach believes a banana a day will keep the doctor away.
