The doctors are researched about Acid Reflux and trying to find the main symptoms.According to doctors the stomach of a human body contains acidic juices like hydrochloric acid, pepsin and sometimes bile juices from the liver. These are supposed to enhance the sterilization and digestion process of the food that we eat and drink to release energy.Hydrochloric acid also prevents the generation and growth of harmful bacteria's in the stomach and the intestine and hydrochloric acid is highly corrosive. However, our stomach is meant to handle this acid as the stomach contains a protective acid proof lining.Now the LES i.e. lower esophageal sphincter doesn't have any acid proof lining. LES is the muscular valve that allows the ingested food to reach the stomach and then close the esophagus .Now, when the LES fails to close tightly or malfunctions and relaxes more often it causes GERD as experienced by people in the form of heartburn.It is found that 300 million of the world population suffers from this disease and it still is a mystery why.50 million of the Americans suffer from heartburn once in a month And 25 million of them experience gastric esophageal reflux on daily basis.In spite of this huge estimation of population that suffers from acid reflux attack there are no known nutritional or alternative therapy to successfully prevent it. Doctors can maximum use the pharmaceutical drugs to treat the acid reflux symptoms and not the disease.Though we would think the main cause of acid reflux attack is what we eat and drink, the fact is little different as it is also about how we eat and drink. This can be proved by the fact that many of us being different individuals find it difficult to digest some food.The food travels from the mouth down to the stomach via esophagus with help of LES which opens up to let the food into the stomach. After which the LES constricts and closes to restrict the reverse flow of food from the stomach.When this function of the LES is not done on time it causes the release of digestive juices from the stomach to the esophagus. one of them being hydrochloric acid. This acid though helps in digestion of proteins, vitamins and other nutrients it is also highly corrosive and strong. Its corrosive action is controlled by the stomach due to the presence of a protective lining in it. However, the esophagus doesn't have the same. As a result the acid splashes through the LES into the esophagus and creates heartburn and other acid reflux attack symptoms like indigestion nausea etc.As we have mentioned earlier its very dangerous to leave the acid reflux attack unchecked and without any treatment hence identifying the acid reflux symptoms early is a must. Because in due course this may result into erosion of esophageal lining called Barrett's Esophagus which further leads to esophageal cancer. Though the acid reflux can be treated medically, it only masks the symptoms of acid reflux attack and not necessarily cures the disease. We need to find more natural methods of treating and curing this disease.Do you know that Apple Cider Vinegar is used to cure Acid Reflux naturally. Acid Reflux during pregnancy should be treated carefully to avoid complications. There are various recipes and diets and acid reflux medicines available. Acid Reflux can also attack infants.
