Heart Burn and Natural Home Remedies.
Idowu Oyindamola shares some natural remedies on
dealing with heartburns today!
Heart burn is a sensation of burning in the chest caused by
stomach acid
backing up into the esophagus. The burning is usually in
the upper and
central part of the chest, behind the breast bone. It is
caused by acid
reflux (also known as gastroesophagel reflux disease
GERD), which occurs
when the ring of the muscle that allows food into your
stomach (lower
esophageal sphincter LES), relaxes when it shouldn't. This
results in acid
backing up into the esophagus. Associated symptoms may
include difficult
swallowing, chronic cough, regurgitation and persistent
sore throat.
Most people get heartburn after eating large meals, fatty
foods or going to
lay down immediately after eating. Some other triggers may
include
alcohol(particularly red wine), caffeine, carbonated
beverages, acidic
fruits or juices(grapes and tomatoes), smoking, pregnancy
and obesity.
