While we all have heartburn at some stage, persistent heartburn (more than two or three episodes a week) may suggest Acid Reflux Disease. Acid Reflux also known as Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD), is the back flow of stomach acid into the esophagus which causes heartburn when acid from the stomach flows up into the throat. The fluid may even be tasted in the back of the mouth, and this is called acid indigestion.
The regurgitated liquid usually contains acid, pepsin and may even contain bile. These acids can may actually be causing damage to the lining of your esophagus. Acid refluxes from the stomach when the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) isn’t working properly. This sphincter is usually tightly closed and opens only when food passes from the esophagus into the stomach. There are a number of factors that can cause the LES to open and let stomach acids back up. These include eating very large meals, lying down within two to three hours of eating, and taking certain drugs including diazepam, meperidine, theophylline, morphine, prostaglandins, calcium channel blockers, nitrate heart medications, and anticholinergic and adrenergic drugs.
Symptoms of a burning in the chest behind the breast bone or in the pit of the stomach are common. A sour taste in the mouth, swallowing difficulties, upset stomach and even coughing and hoarseness are also common. Acid reflux causes many sufferers to loose countless hours of sleep every night as well, which is known as nighttime acid reflux.
Research has indicated that a combination of natural remedies, regular exercise and dietary changes can make a significant difference to the lives of people suffering from digestive disorders and complaints. Approximately 94 percent of sufferers can link their heartburn symptoms to specific foods. It is suggested that individuals with reflux eat 3 small meals per day, not lie down for at least 3 hours after eating, avoid coffee tea, alcohol and fatty foods and not smoke.
