January 12, 2019Browse by Staff MemberTARA TROY, M.D. GastroenterologistThe Gastrointestinal Systems

GASTROENTEROLOGY NERD ALERT!

Check out this article in an older issue of Discover magazine about the Nobel Prize winning “guinea pig doctor” Barry Marshall. He helped make the connection between a bacterial infection of the stomach called H. pylori and stomach ulcers by DRINKING THE BACTERIA AND INFECTING HIMSELF!

Read more about his experiment here: http://discovermagazine.com/2010/mar/07-dr-drank-broth-gave-ulcer-solved-medical-mystery?fbclid=IwAR2HG41Y52gNT7AXVjWnfCuO_31Hw5aeSFix58rZx2m27yp8FMtZKnAoT_I

Our team at Comprehensive Gastrointestinal Health is committed to your wellness too (maybe not THAT committed though!). Please call us at 224.407.4400 or visit compgihealth.com to learn more.
