Symptoms of Acid Reflux Disease
           The Top 7 Things That Could Answer Your Question

If you are currently asking yourself the question - “Do I have acid reflux disease?” then
it is time to investigate this painful and rather life changing condition to work out
whether or not it is time to visit your doctor.

There are a few symptoms that are commonly associated with digestive diseases and
conditions such as GERD and acid reflux disease and if you are noticing one of more of
these symptoms, it is perhaps time to visit a medical professional that can better
diagnose your symptoms. Home or self diagnosis will not get you the treatment that you
will need so the only way to be safe and healthy is to visit your doctor.

Among the main symptoms of acid reflux disease, you may notice the following:

1. Heartburn. This is commonly described as a rather painful burning sensation within
the chest area and can go as far down as the stomach and as far up as the neck

2. Regurgitating food back from the gullet into the mouth

3. Pain in the chest, either constant or a nasty stabbing pain

4. Trouble when swallowing both liquids and food

5. Sore throat and hoarseness when trying to talk

6. Asthma (This is normally due to the acid that is travelling where it should reaching
the area around the lungs or throat)

7. Erosion of the teeth and gums caused by the acid reaching the mouth

                    Copyright © Alvin Hopkinson www.refluxremoval.com
These symptoms can happen all at once or in stages and all of them are very
uncomfortable to have to deal with. They have the ability to seriously interfere with ones
life and even lead to days taken from work as sick and not being able to leave the house
due to the painful nature of the heartburn.

For those that have not suffered from heartburn, this can be one of the most painful
things to ever have to go through and also one of the most difficult things to explain.

The symptoms of acid reflux disease can continue for many months and even longer,
getting more and more painful as the time goes if it has not been treated in the correct
manner.

Treatment can take the shape of many things from medication that your doctor may
have prescribed for you to massive lifestyle changes that can make the difference
between painful symptoms of acid reflux disease to bearable ones.

Acid Reflux Medicine - Find Me Medicine That Will Make Me Better

Acid reflux medicine is essential for treating those nasty and painful symptoms
associated with the condition but before you get the medicine you need, it’s time to get
diagnosed. This can only be done by a doctor so it’s time to make that appointment!

After this appointment has been made and you know that your symptoms are definitely
caused by acid reflux you can then go on to choose the right treatment for you and
thankfully, there are many options available.

First of all, one of the first things that you will need to work out is whether or not you
would benefit from over the counter acid reflux medicine or prescription medicine. There
are both advantages and disadvantages to both of these options and some may be more
expensive than others but incidentally it is down to personal preference.

The doctor may advise you to go with one treatment and it would be better to try this
option first while trying to incorporate a few lifestyle changes to see if that makes a
difference.

Either way, whether you go for the over counter acid reflux medicine or the prescription
ones that are advised by your doctor, they are both designed for short term use and
should not be used over longer periods of time.

The acid reflux medicine that you can buy over the counter is likely to be one of the
following:

• Antacids
• H2 Blockers
• Proton Pump Inhibitors
• Combination Medicines

                    Copyright © Alvin Hopkinson www.refluxremoval.com
Again, these will also have their advantages and disadvantages and some are likely to be
more expensive than the others but they are great for relief on the go. They are easily
bought in most places and can be purchased while you are out and about to provide
comfort when any prescription medicines have ran out or are not available.

It is really not a good idea to take these alongside prescription medication that your
doctor may have given you and if this is an option that you wish to use, always speak
with your doctor first to make sure that there are no health risks.

At the end of the day the prescription acid reflux medicine versus over the counter
options is a debate that can only be argued by those that are using them. What works
for one person may not necessarily work for another person and finding the right acid
reflux medicine is basically a method of trial and error until one is found that works the
best.

Acid Reflux Natural Remedies - The Top 7

The diagnosed cases of acid reflux is steadily on the incline. This could be simply
because more people are listening to what their bodies are telling them or this could be
simply because a larger number of individuals are not eating as healthy as they should,
among an array of other reasons.

However, if you suffer from acid reflux, you don’t have to any more. Here are the top 7
acid reflux natural remedies we could find, that work.

1. Increase the amount of water you drink daily. This is beneficial for your overall
health as well. However, increasing your water intake will help to dilute the acids in the
stomach, thus minimizing the acid reflux symptoms. You should also try to drink a glass
of water after you have eaten, possibly two.

2. Almonds is another great way to eliminate the effects of acid reflux. In the
morning, chew on a few almonds and after each meal. It is important that you chew
them very well, the longer the better and you will soon begin to see relief in your acid
reflux symptoms.

3. Fennel tea or chamomile tea have a soothing effect on the individual drinking it
and it has been successfully connected to the relief of acid reflux discomfort. It is
important that you take your time drinking the tea, only sipping it.

4. Could it be true, an apple a day keeps the doctor away? Maybe not, but eating
an apple after a meal can surely keep your acid reflux symptoms at bay! Organically
grown apples chewed slowly and well can reduce the acid in the stomach, thus
eliminating the acid reflux.

5. Ginger in almost any form can be great for reducing acid reflux. You can have
candied ginger, ginger tea or take ginger in a capsule form.

                    Copyright © Alvin Hopkinson www.refluxremoval.com
6. Apple cider vinegar is another of the top acid reflux home remedies. It is important
that you are drinking organic apple cider vinegar and that you shake it well. There
should be a pulp looking substance floating within, this is actually what you need to
consume. This substance has enzymes that are ideal for keeping the symptoms of acid
reflux a distant memory for you. Add the apple cider vinegar to a half a glass of water
and drink it shortly before or after a meal.

7. Chewing gum, as you might already know is great for assisting in the digestion of
food. However, did you know that this also stimulates the production of saliva? This in
turn does the same thing as drinking water, it will dilute the stomach acids and limit the
acid reflux symptoms.

As with almost any treatment you try, it will be a trial and error process. The same holds
true for acid reflux natural remedies. Something that works for you might not work for
your spouse, and something that works for your spouse might not work for you.

Acid Reflux Herbs - An Alternative Medicine

In this time and age when technology is at a rapid pace, it is quite surprising that
alternative herbal medicine can outweigh the traditional drug-based medicines. This is
true in the cure for acid reflux or heartburn, where various acid reflux herb cures are
more popular than the drugs.

Whereas acid reflux herb cures as alternative medicine still need further analysis and the
dosage is a mere guessing game. A lot of people prefer them over the traditional drugs.
People seem to overlook the fact that drug medications have undergone extensive
research. These include various tests and scientific researches to avoid any adverse
reactions when consumed by the patient.

Traditional medicines include antacids, H2 inhibitors, bismuth subsalicylate and Proton
pump inhibitors as against medicinal herbs for acid reflux. Herbal medicines are as
simple as the herbs they contain.

Here are some popular herbs that are proven to cure acid reflux. Though considered as
natural or organic, a doctor's recommendation is still needed before trying any of these
acid reflux herb medicines:

1. Ginger - Known to cure acid reflux due to its anti-inflammatory ingredients; you can
boil fresh ginger and drink it similar to tea or you can sprinkle ginger powder on your
food.

2. Liquorice or licorice - This is a legume found in most parts of Asia and southern
Europe. This is used in soft drinks and candies as flavoring due to its sweet aftertaste.
Since ancient times, this is also used as an effective expectorant.

3. Black pepper - Helps in the digestion of food hence, best for people suffering from
acid reflux.

                    Copyright © Alvin Hopkinson www.refluxremoval.com
4. Aloe Vera or Medicinal Aloe - Aloe Vera gel is commercially used as ingredients in
beverages, desserts and yogurts. Further medical evaluation is still needed regarding its
healing properties for heartburn.

5. Slippery elm or red elm - Used in North America for centuries as herbal medicine
in the treatment of ulcers, skin inflammation, wounds, burns and boils. As a nutritional
food, it is similar to oatmeal and can easily be digested by people with intestinal
problems or gastritis. However, extensive scientific research is still needed for its medical
properties.

6. Bladder wrack - This is an algae in the form of seaweeds found on the shores of
British Isles. Commonly used as ingredients of over-the-counter drugs for heartburn and
components in nutritional supplements.

As in any form of medication whether acid reflux herb cure or drug based, medical
consultation is still a must. This is due to the fact that limited medical research was
spent on it. It is known to happen that expecting too much of herbal medical power
results to complications rather good results.

There are acid reflux herbs already in the market and commercially distributed by
reputable drug companies. These herbal medications now come in the form of capsule,
tablet or drops. Their main purpose is to soothe and relieve the stomach lining as well as
to strengthen the whole digestive system. Accordingly, taking this herbal cures does not
need to be in daily dosages just to be effective.

Nevertheless to be really effective, there is also a need to change your eating habits and
your diet. Regardless of the type of medication you decide on, your road to recovery
also requires discipline. Treatments include rehabilitation, hence acid reflux herb
medicines will only succeed if you watch what you eat.

Diet for Acid Reflux - 4 Tips to Live By

Suffering from acid reflux is not necessary. Did you know that you can control your acid
reflux symptoms, for the most part? Use your diet for acid reflux control, take back your
life and let go of the discomforts of acid reflux. Here are 4 tips that you should use to
control your acid reflux with your diet.

The first tip is to eat smaller portions of food more often. When you eat large
portions or large meals the stomach is forced to stretch so it can accommodate the food
consumed. This causes unnecessary pressure on the LES (lower esophageal sphincter).
In turn you end up with acid reflux. Eliminating the problem before hand can save you
the discomfort.

The second great tip is to watch the foods you eat. No, you do not have to calorie
count or go on an outrageous diet. But, you do need to keep track of the foods that
cause your acid reflux to act up on you. Here are some of the foods you should avoid if
you suffer from acid reflux:

• Fried food
• Citrus juices
• Peppermint
• Tomato products
• Soda and other carbonated drinks
• Garlic
• Fatty meat
• Citrus fruit
• Chocolate
• Alcohol
• Coffee and other caffeinated drinks
• Peppers
• Onions

                    Copyright © Alvin Hopkinson www.refluxremoval.com
The third tip to keep in mind if you suffer from acid reflux is laying down after
you eat can induce an attack with acid reflux. Try to avoid laying down after you
eat for at least three hours to eliminate the risks of acid reflux symptoms. By not laying
down you allow your body to properly digest the food you ate without disrupting the
stomach acids.

Finally, eating a healthy well balanced diet daily can also minimize the
symptoms of acid reflux. Fresh fruits, veggies, whole grains, oats, lentils and fish are
excellent sources of nutrition to consume that will not cause any symptoms of acid
reflux.

Using your diet for acid reflux control is a natural and safe. In many cases with minor
changes to a diet and lifestyle acid reflux can be successfully controlled and maintained
without the need for medication to mask the condition. Treating the acid reflux from the
root of the problem is the best way to handle it. Masking or covering up the actual root
of the acid reflux is not going to solve it.
