Porges Gastroreal Reflex

Porges's Gastrophagic Reflex is a phenomenon that was discovered by the American physician Porges in the 1970s. This reflex is associated with the body's response to hunger and is one of the mechanisms that helps regulate appetite and maintain health.

Porges discovered that people who are hungry have a reaction to the smell of food. This response manifests itself as an increase in heart rate, increased blood pressure, and increased blood glucose levels. Thus, the body begins to prepare for food intake, even if it has not yet entered the body.

This reflex is of great importance for human health, as it helps regulate appetite and maintains homeostasis in the body. However, if this reflex becomes too strong, it can lead to overeating and obesity. Therefore, it is important to control your appetite and avoid overeating.



**Introduction.** George Porro Gastritis alcal (Georgios Porro (Porges), 1893–1973) - American physician, born in Odessa. Graduated from the Faculty of Medicine of the Sorbonne. In 1913 he received his doctorate in medicine. Since 1923, he conducted a lot of research in the field of psychiatry, which in 1949 resulted in the book “Chronic Abdominal Pain Syndromes”. He was also the chairman of the International Association of Hepatopancreatobiliary Surgery.

**Gastroesophageal reflux.** Gastroesophageal reflux can cause damage to the esophagus in people with a hiatal hernia. In patients with severe heartburn and esophagitis, gastroscopy may reveal ulcers or erosions of the esophageal mucosa. However, dysregeneration (destruction of the mucosa) to develop cancer is rarely observed in such episodes of GER. Patients often complain of excessive vomiting during the day immediately after eating. Sometimes it is accompanied by additional symptoms such as regurgitation. Acid reflux from the stomach into the esophagus can cause symptoms associated with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), such as heartburn, belching, a burning sensation in the stomach, and voice changes. If symptoms occur frequently or over a long period of time, they can lead to esophageal burns (erosions and ulcers), chronic apical pneumonia, and precancerous lesions of the esophagus and stomach. Treatment includes diet and lifestyle changes, as well as drug therapy. Bile reflux is present in irritable bowel syndrome, a chronic bowel disease characterized by pain and irregular bowel movements. Near
