Page 1 of 2  Acid reflux disease and heartburn are words used to express the same symptom - a burning sensation in your chest by your heart or right up the chest middle. This acid reflux symptom can also be experience much higher along the esophagus or throat. Over time, stomach acid can continue to dissolve esophagus tissue and this can lead to a bleeding ulcer with severe pain.
Another acid reflux symptom can be bad breath or consistent dry coughing. Still, when esophageal tissue is eaten away, scar tissue can form which can narrow the esophagus making it difficult to swallow. Poor eating habitsHeartburn or acid reflux doesn’t happen when you eat a healthy diet. And when I say a healthy diet, I don’t mean a diet that you need to deprive yourself of the food you like. Most of us developed our eating habits from our parents. As we grew, we watched how they ate, when they ate, and what they ate. And we did the same thing. Most people that I know and all family members don’t have good eating habits. They are eating too much at one sitting, they mix their food improperly, they drink too much water or drink the wrong type of liquid when they eat, they don’t assist the digestion with digestive enzymes and the list goes on and on. So when you have a heavy meal where you ate more than you should have ,make sure you don’t bend over, lift anything heavy, or lie down. |
