REFLUX GONE FOREVER, Natural Acid Reflux Remedies

http://www.refluxgoneforever.com

Many people suffer daily from the effects of acid reflux, to one

degree or another. Unfortunately, the constant strain of this

condition on the body can lead to premature aging.

The reflux of stomach gas and fluids during the night, even on a

modest level, inhibit proper sleep patterns. It is a known fact

that sleep is the most important factor affecting the aging

process. If you do not get enough quality sleep at the r.e.m.

level, you face each day with low energy, which can be described

as a form of chronic fatigue. This syndrome will eventually drag

you down and make you feel and look older than you should. It

may even shorten your life. Many people are not even aware that

they suffer from this condition.

Acid reflux or gerd (gastroesophageal reflux disease) occurs when

the LES (lower esophageal sphincter) relaxes and allows gas and

fluids from the stomach to move upward into the esophagus. The

LES is a ringed muscle at the bottom of the esophagus. It opens

in order to allow food to enter the stomach, and then closes in

order to keep the digestive fluids where they belong. It is when

this muscle is too relaxed or damaged, that the contents of the

stomach can escape up into the esophagus thereby causing acid

reflux.

The medical community would have us to believe that drugs are the

only answer to the problem of gerd. Of course this is not true.

Antacids are, at best, a temporary fix and are loaded with

harmful ingredients such as sodium and aluminum. PPI drugs

(proton pump inhibitors) like Nexium and Prilosec should only be

used for eight weeks, at most. It says so right on the label.

Furthermore, these drugs only mask and hide the symptoms and they

have hundreds of harmful side effects.

The acid reflux condition can be the result of poor eating habits

or even the aging process itself. We all know that certain foods

can trigger indigestion; tomato sauce, raw garlic and onions,

chocolate, coffee and alcohol. The ingestion of these foods can

make you acidic in nature, resulting in acid reflux. Yet most of

us can't resist one or more of these items on a daily basis.

Besides eliminating " trigger " foods from our diets, there are

many natural herbs and supplements that can be helpful in staving

off this malady.

Chronic indigestion can also be caused by a lack of hydrochloric

acid. Some people produce insufficient amounts of stomach acid

as they grow older. Besides the proper digestion of food,

hydrochloric acid is necessary to keep harmful bacteria, which

are found in the digestive track, in check. Without this

defense, infections can develop which make the acid reflux

condition even worse. This particular condition can be improved

with hydrochloric acid supplements, or even ingesting small

amounts of apple cider vinegar. Although these conditions are

different in nature, they both cause acid reflux and can result

in premature aging.

Other things that should be considered in dealing with this

condition are:

* Smoking cessation (Smoking creates an acidic body)

* Loosing weight

* Eating small portions of food throughout the day

* Chewing food well and eating slowly

* Eating at least three hours before retiring

There are many subtle changes in lifestyle which can remove the

threat of the acid reflux condition. By eliminating this

unnecessary and harmful strain on the body, one can live a more

healthy life. Getting better quality sleep will increase your

chances of retaining life-force, which means living a longer and

more youthful existence.
