it's time for sunday

housecall. >> welcome to all of you joining us right now as the chairman and professor urology. >> and author of the inner pulse and locking the secret code of secret and healths. doctors, good to see you. >> we start with bacon and booze. there's a must study for cancer research that looks at the causes of stomach cancer and found out there were three new and somewhat surprising links, alcohol, processed meat and obesity. how do we reduce our chances of getting stomach cancer. >> this is huge news published this week. in the past we knew absolutely smoking and bacteria such as h pylori could lead. and they looked at 89 studies over 70 million population and

found that alcohol can increase the risk of stomach cancer if you drink more than three alcohol a day you should be really be concerned about this. 1.8 pound of processed meat, almost one hot dog a day can increase the chance by 18% and obesity, a big nightmare, a third of the country is suffering, not only for breast and colon cancer but stomach cancer. >> this is unbelievable. let me first stop. why alcohol? how much and why processed meats? >> is it all processed meats too? turkey bacon, is that okay or everything? >> it's all processed meats and has to do with nitrates in hot dogs and in turkey bacon or in bacon. these things convert to something into your stomach that irritate your stomach lining. is your stomach lining irritated. he talked about the bacteria that irritate it's and inflames your stomach lining, alcohol

does that. this studly looked at 77,000 cases of stomach cancer. this is huge information. but it goes back to practicality, when you smoke it irritates your stomach lining and the biggest problem i have, how do i know about it? men over the age of 50, women too, but especially men over the age of 50, i start to look at differently, that's when it all occurs but the biggest problem is by the time i can diagnose stomach cancer, 75% of the time it's too late to do anything, they are bloated or nauseous or lose weight. it's not specific. >> what are symptoms? >> the symptoms are very vague. in the stomach, there's plenty of space as opposed to kol lon, if you have a narrowing, they would see blood or narrow stool. in stomach by the time you get to it it could be too late. nausea or vomtsing or seeing a lot of weight without trying,

that's when you should see the doctor. they will do an endo scopepy, if you catch it early, about 90%. if it's already late, it becomes 10% and it's a deadly one. you need to add fruit and vegetables and fiber, we've talked about adding garlic to your food, ginger, all of these are ways to reduce the inflamation and make re -- reducing the ratd and lose weight, exercise as well. >> in addition to those fruits and vegetables and beans as well, a lot of people watching, but can i still have my red wine, i'm going back to the turkey bacon, still okay to have a blt and glass of wine and still okay to have what kind of alcohol? >> i think it's a matter of degree. everything we're talking about today is related. think about it. when we talk about obesity, what do you think obese people eat,

they are not eating avocados and fruits and vegetables, you can turkey bacon every once in a while or glass of red wine, nothing that shows one glad of red wine with dinner will cause this. we're seeing this greater than three drinks. but yoeroverall alcohol is irritating your stomach. lose the weight and eat more fruits and vegetables and you'll have a decreased risk. family history. i look for this in people who have it in families, if you have a father or mother with stomach cancer, i'll being screening you. over the age of 50, i may send you for an endos scopepy to rule this out if you're saying i have heart burn, had it for years. >> over the age of 50. >> stop smoking, a big part of this. you want to make sure whenever you can, besides losing weight and exercise, stop smoking and moderation is the key. >> listen to your body. if you feel something is wrong,

call the doctor, time and time again we hear terrible stories of people who don't pick up the phone and make the appointment when they feel something is off. back pain, we're going to talk about that next, one of the leading causes of disability in the united states. what's the best way to treat it, the doctors are going to weigh in just ahead. a heart attack doesn't care if you run everyday, or if you're young or old. no matter who you are a heart attack can happen without warning. if you've had a heart attack, a bayer aspirin regimen can help prevent another one. be sure to talk to your doctor before you begin an aspirin regimen. bayer aspirin.

welcome back to "housecall." did you know back pain is the second most common reason that people go to the doctor in the united states and the leading cause of disability in americans under the age of 45? so a question that some doctors bring up, laser spine surgery, question for us is is it a good

option. doctor, what do you think? >> surgery is the last thing you think of when it comes to back pain. it's not what you do first. is this tingling going down your legs or numbness going down your legs? are you weak going down your legs or is this all localized? >> you don't feel weak and tingling and numbness and don't have a foot drop and it just happened, you may be able to treat it yourself with heat and exercise and getting up, we're way to sedentery, my wife preps me, expert on back pain, go to a specialist. if you have any of the neurological symptoms i talk about, they can determine what the cause is, is it a disk, is it a narrowing in the canal? many things can cause it but first question, is it newer logic or not.

>> you get an mri, i've got the tingling and numbness in one of my legs and pt i haven't even thought of spine surgery because pt can usually straighten me out. >> i think physical therapy plays a big role and that's perfectly okay but it depends on what kind of problem you have in your spine. if you have spinal stenosis or this disks that are pressing geps your nerves, you're not going to do well with physical therapy. may need an orthopedic surgeon or spine surgeon to fix it. they fuse some of the vertebrae to make it stable. a lot of times when we talk about laser or minimum invasive surgeries, you can go in without having a big scar and find a bulge or disk pressing against the nerve and take care of the problem and issue. >> what would the laser do? >> in 30% of the times used to take the bone away from the nerves, it's delicate and less invasive but not always being used, it's the judgment of the

surgeon. eight out of ten americans suffer from this. when you're younger, under the age 45, a lot of it is because of our life, sitting behind computers, we're always sitting, hunching over and that's what it is. as you get older, arthritis and other causes of back pain can get in and you have to talk to your doctor and find out if there's a genetic component. we just talked about overweight, it is one of the big reasons why people have back pain. just simple exercises and weight loss and ep dural injections are not always the answer. there are cases where they can help but talk to your experts -- >> what's your best advice right now to prevent serious back pain as you get older? >> the first thing you have to do is exercise, get up regularly and exercise, even when you're not exercising, get up. losing weight as david said, that's a biggie, if it's a muscle spasm, you might be able to treat it temporarily with advil and aleaf. if you go to a doctor and they

find you have a problem like disk disease or narrowing and physical therapy isn't working, try the conservative things and then if you have to have surgery, choose a person who is the best at what they do. we see he's the best at what he does. i want a back surgeon -- don't go to a laser surgeon that does ten of them, go to a surgeon that does the most. >> and are you going to ask? how many do you do? >> how many do you do? right? >> the best thing with back pain is rest. you don't want to do the exact same thing. if it doesn't go away and urinariry symptoms or bowel issues. >> that's an emergency. >> get an mri and can fix it. >> still to come here, we have an e-mail question from our viewer who was recently diagnosed with severe aneem ya, the doctors will fill us in when we come back. living with chronic migraine feels like each day is a game of chance. i wanted to put the odds in my favor. so my doctor told me about botox®, an fda-approved

treatment that significantly reduces headache days for adults with chronic migraine, 15 or more headache days a month, each lasting 4 hours or more. it's shown to prevent headaches and migraines before they start. and it's injected by my doctor once every 12 weeks. effects of botox® may spread hours to weeks after injection causing serious symptoms. alert your doctor right away, as difficulty swallowing, speaking, breathing, eye problems, or muscle weakness can be signs of a life-threatening condition. side effects may include allergic reactions, neck and injection site pain, fatigue and headache. don't take botox® if there's a skin infection. tell your doctor your medical history, muscle or nerve conditions, and medications including botulinum toxins, as these may increase the risk of serious side effects. put the odds on your side. visit botoxchronicmigraine.com to learn how to save on your treatment. talk to a headache specialist today about botox®.

surgery in 2005. >> one of the best questions we've had through e-mail. basically low blood count. red blood cells is in the bone not be making enough. you may be making red blood cell but the body and autoimmune symptoms gets rid of it. within the first year and maybe longer, they may have anemia. the reason is because when you have surgery, you bypass the beginning of small intestine and that's where the iron is being absorbed. you bypass the area of small intestine that iron will get absorbed. you need acid. whoever created that had everything in place. you need acid from the stomach to absorb iron. if you're going to make your stomach smaller, you won't have

enough acid. you won't produce those factors so you basically vitamin b12, folate and iron will go down. >> can they give you acid injections or something to help anemia? >> you get that from anxiety at work. >> some of the symptoms are something that you may not peg on anemia. feeli ining grumpy, weak, heada, trouble concentrating or thinking. that sounds like something that happens to people daily. >> that's a great point. if you had the surgery or lap band where they put a rubber band around your stomach, you better be checked regularly for all your vitamins. me can give you iron and b-12 injections. b-12 is another common anemia. we make something in the stomach

that helps us absorb b-12. you get rid of the stomach, you can't absorb b-12. iron is the most common one. remember, with anemia, it's very simple. you're either losing your blood somewhere, not making it properly or you're destroying it in your blood stream. you're not making it properly because an essential ingredient to get checked. >> e-mail us housecall@foxnews.com. doctors go through all of the questions. they get to most of them. we'll keep your e-mail address and your name -- maybe not your first name. last name and where you live and that personal type of stuff confidential of course. all right. puffy lips. it turns out a lot of people want them. you know about this. lip procedures are at an all-time high. is it safe? the doctors give us their take

be right. according to the american society of plastic surgeons, lip injections and implants are at an all-time high. one of the parts of the research i was reading. a lot of people take selfies and look at the pictures of themselves and think i want to look more like one of the kardashians. people are rushing out to get these fuller lips. good idea? bad idea? >> well, i'm not going to endorse it. i will say this, there's a big difference between implants which you can't reverse and injection which is up 1,000%. botox or a filler that the skin actually makes. it's pretty natural. those wear off. if you see them and don't like them, they wear off. there's a risk of infection and allergies and bruising. all of these things you have to take into account. you have to go to someone who knows what they're doing. i'm not a fan of this. you better go to someone who knows what they're doing if you have them. >> david, who would that be? how would you know if you're going to the right person?

>> make sure that you interview your doctor and the plastic surgeon and make sure they do this on a regular basis. a good surgeon is not just going to inject wherever he can. you see sometimes they put so much in there the lips start to look like donald duck's mouth and it's horrible. look at the symmetry and how much it looks and there are ways to take pictures that really monitor this. if it doesn't look good and you don't like it after a few months, it's going to dissolve. implants are on the rise. takes 30 minutes to do this. you put an implant in the lips. it cost about 3,000 to $5,000 and those are harder. >> what's the stuff they put in there? >> is it like a breast implant? >> very narrow implant that basically goes on upper and lower lip and it will stay there. you can remove it but you have to really make sure. >> you shouldn't have these if you have diabetes, blood

clotting problems or oral herpes which a lot of people have. past a certain age you shouldn't have -- >> a lot of young girls are doing this. >> love yourself and the way you look would be the best thing. >> over 9 million people are getting these injections. biggest message is don't go to places like medical spa that basically will give you butt implant and botox and get this. go to the expert. the more they do and more experience they have, lower rate of complications and sometimes they look beautiful. we've seen some great examples of them. there are medical reasons to do it when it's necessary if you have too much wrinkles around. >> some go overboard. why doesn't the doctor say no, i'm not going to do it. >> some surgeons should say you don't need it. you're beautiful. >> an internist should say don't go for it. david does not need them. his birthday tomorrow. i want to wish him a happy birthday. >> thank you. i'm not going to get an

injection in my lips. >> looking at these figures, 27,400 got lip implants last year alone. >> be careful. that does it for us. >> thanks for watching. the calendar says spring but a chilly welcome for president obama in germany. tens of thousands protesting the president's signature trade deal. his big meeting with chancellor angela merkel just wrapped. plus, less than 48 hours away from five primaries and gop candidates are making their final arguments. >> let me say in the trump circus, donald trump is the master illusionist. he's the hairy houdini engaged in an act of misdirection. trump is a phony. >> chilling new surveillance footage from a murder in texas.
