acid reflux
Acid reflux is a condition where gastric juices travel back from the stomach into the oesophagus (gullet or swallowing tube). If you suffer from acid reflux the gastric juices from your stomach "flow back" into your oesophagus, causing discomfort and pain. The correct term for acid reflux is gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD / GORD).
When food cannot digest it ferments in the stomach forming gasses and alcohols, the gas build-up creates pressure forcing digestive juices to reflux and this results in the pain and discomfort known as acid reflux. Chronic acid reflux can eventually cause mechanical damage such as hiatus hernia or Barrett's Oesophagus. Factors such as stress and low stomach acid can inhibit digestion. Many people are under the misconception that they are over producing stomach acid and therefore resort to using antacids and or acid blockers which only treat the short term symptoms and often exaggerate the cause. Please see "How undigested food affects the stomach and digestive system" for more details about stomach acid and digestion. Other causes of acid reflux are a defective lower oesophageal sphincter muscle, diet and lifestyle, insufficient nutrients and pregnancy.
ACID REFLUX SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS
Acid reflux symptoms may vary from person to person. Common symptoms associated with acid reflux are chest pain which can feel like 'heartburn' which is a burning sensation or pain behind the breastbone or in the pit of the stomach that can extend all the way up to the throat, nausea, regurgitation of a bitter taste or fluid, sensitive teeth and sore throat.
Natural treatment for acid reflux
The Other Option's DIGESTIVE REMEDY Siberian Pine Nut Oil is effective in the treatment of acid reflux as it naturally stimulates the release of digestive hormones which boost digestion, preventing the build up of gasses which cause gastric juices to reflux, and in doing so increase the absorption of vital nutrients. DIGESTIVE REMEDY has anti-inflammatory properties which strengthen and heal inflammation or ulcerations in the lining of the oesophagus, stomach and digestive tract.
