\nAnyway, for the past 2 yrs, when he eats (about 20 percent of time and 80 percent of the few times he has actually eaten a bigger meal) he will start gagging. What can cause this and what natural remedies are there?

Saved, it\'s always heartwarming to hear about your Dad and his willingness to exercise that\'s so great! And you\'re such a caring son to encourage him and monitor his progress, I respect and admire you both. Lots of older folks pass on the physical activity, too painful and they don\'t have anyone to give them the push they need.

\nMany years ago, when my mother was in her sixties, she started gagging/coughing sometimes when she ate. It didn\'t have to be a big meal or big bites at all. The doctors told her that it was kind of a crook that developed in her espohagus. Probably an area that was weak to begin with, and became misshapen due to aging. She always feared it happening, and just dealt with it when it did. Sorry, not much help. \r\n

Actually you are a ton of help, that is useful knowledge. As for older people exercising, if the fucking med industry would spend a fraction of one percent of their intake and get some mini buses to pick people up and take them to the gym a few times a week, they would be much better. But hey, they want every single cent.\r\n
