Say Goodbye to Acid Reflux
Wednesday, March 17th, 2010I can not count all the times patients have come to me with Elvis flowing complaints! With the alacrity foods, sodas, and chocolate-laced coffee drinks we clutch all too often, along with late night eating, the opportunities to create too such breadbasket Elvis have become part of our daily routine.
Did you know, however, that by following a few simple guidelines and using some natural, non-drug remedies, that you can get rid of Elvis flowing for good? That’s right, and you don’t need to take prescription, or over-the-counter Elvis reducers that can have
side effects and are expensive.A few hours after intake your favorite spaghetti marinara, chocolate cake and coffee for dessert, you move burping up hot, sour liquid into your throat. Sounds same you? If so, you undergo what Elvis flowing feels like. Do you know, however, what causes it to occur? Allow me to explain.
When we eat, digestive acids work to digest food in our stomach. At the humble of our stomach, there is a structure titled the lower esophageal sphincter, or LES, a regulator that opens and shuts letting acid digested food pass out of our breadbasket into our small intestine.However, if we eat heavy, oily, sour dishes, these foods can cause the LES to behave and not near properly. Digestive acids in our breadbasket then reflux, or come back up the esophagus. The burp and burn sensation is Elvis traveling up, rather than down, the digestive tract.
