  It immediately established the author Gary Gitnick as a compassionate doctor.It's true that the conditions he discusses don't carry the threat of mortality the way cancer or coronary artery disease do.Yet gas, heartburn, constipation, and diarrhea can wreak havoc with our bodies, causing tremendous physical and emotional distress.To a patient suffering from irritable bowel syndrome so severe that he's embarrassed to go on social outings, the desire for relief can be overwhelming.
  
  One out of every four visits to a primary care doctor, in fact, is due to a digestive problem, according to Gitnick.He himself is a gastroenterologist, a specialist in diseases of the esophagus, stomach, intestines, liver, and pancreas, all the organs that contribute to digestion.As chief of the Division of Digestive Diseases at the University of California at Los Angeles School of Medicine (the largest gastroenterology division in the world, according to the book jacket), he has heard the full gamut of complaints.
  
  Many of his patients reported repeat episodes of searing heartburn, especially if they had eaten late at night.Others had had "nervous" stomachs since they were children, but were never properly diagnosed as having irritable bowel syndrome until Gitnick saw them.One patient had experienced excruciatingly embarrassing bouts of gas, bloating, and cramps all his life -- until he took up exercise, improving both his health and his self-esteem.

  To figure out possible sources, Gary Gitnick, MD, chief of the division of digestive diseases at the University of California at Los Angeles School of Medicine, advises that the food journal include when you eat something, how much you eat, where you ate it, if you were doing anything else at the time, and any symptoms you're feeling. (He also suggests recording your mood and emotions at the onset of any digestive symptoms.) Your diary should include everything you put in your mouth, including things like chewing gum, candies, and mints.
  ...
  "I think that most doctors would agree that regular exercise helps promote normal intestinal function, which in turn helps pass gas, reduces bloating and cramping, and results in more regular bowel movements," writes Gitnick.
  
  Just remember that certain types of digestive problems may preclude some forms of exercise.For example, Gitnick notes that people who suffer consistently from heartburn should refrain from jarring or high impact exercises.Instead of aerobic dancing, jogging, or the step machine at the gym, Gitnick suggests walking or swimming as an alternative.
