HIATAL HERNIA
The stomach is located just below the diaphragm, and a passageway through the diaphragm allows the esophagus to reach the stomach. In a person with hiatal hernia, part of the stomach actually slips through the diaphragm into the chest cavity.
About one in every five people has a hiatal hernia, and most have no symptoms whatsoever. The rest are buying antacids for heartburn.
Dr. Burkitt hypothesized that the condition is another result of daily straining to pass stools.31 This creates enormous abdominal pressures, pushing the stomach upward toward the esophagus. The prevalence of hiatal hernia seems to follow the same pattern as other diet-related conditions: wherever low-fiber diets abound, hiatal hernia occurs.
