Acid Reflux

http://www.deluxecomfort.com/wedge-pillow-order.html

About 7 million of men and women in America, generally up to their 40's are suffering from acid reflux, a disease of the digestive system that consists of a backflow of acid from the stomach up to the esophagus, damaging the inner lining of this organ.

Usually confused with heartburn, this is actually a symptom of acid reflux that usually happens after meals. Acid reflux becomes a clinical condition when the acid can produce a severe damage on the esophagus. Other consequences of acid reflux are tooth decay, vocal chords damage, and sinus contamination that can lead to asthmatic ailments.

acid reflux diseaseThere is also certain confusion with hiatal hernia, which is a dislocation of the stomach through the hiatus (upper part of the stomach) into the chest. This condition gets more severe over time. However, hiatal hernia and acid reflux are not necessarily related.

Other symptoms of acid reflux disease along with heartburn, which is a burning feeling behind the breastbone, difficult in swallowing and regurgitation of acid stomach contents into the mouth.

Acid reflux disease or Gastro Esophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) as it is also referred is produced due to a transient relaxation of the sphincter or lower end of the esophagus that allows the entrance of foods and liquids into the gullet.

Since this is a disease produced by the intake of food and drinks with high content of acids the first recommendation from your doctor will be avoiding as possible these foods and drinks, lying down after eating, wearing tight clothes, and doing straining activities as bending over and sleeping over a wedge pillow that elevates your head, shoulders and chest to make gravity work preventing the acid flux gets up to your esophagus and have that acid taste and heartburn in your mouth when you wake up the next day.

Unfortunately there is no definite cure for acid reflux disease, so it depends much on your diligence and perseverance on following the heartburn prevention recommendations of your physician, which are basically changes in your lifestyle, especially in your nutrition habits. Invasive acid reflux treatments include acid reflux surgery or fundoplication and the consumption of proton pump inhibitors (PPI) to block acid secretion.

Using wedge pillows is what gastroenterologists called "positional therapy", used to moderate the symptoms of acid reflux, which usually get acute at night time. According to this therapy, it is necessary to elevate your upper body and not your head only. Despite it will be hard for you to get used to this new sleeping position, you will feel gratified by the reduction of the acid reflux symptoms and acid-free taste in your mouth every morning.

It has a special upper pad to cushion your head and neck and avoid any eventual sliding. The wedge and the upper pad are both filled with the high-tech memory foam that adjusts exactly to the contours of your upper body, and unlike most totally flat acid reflux pillows that make you sink in the center of the pillow, it will actually cradle your body up relaxing your shoulders and arms to maintain a comfortable elevation while you sleep.

Fuck your pillow and your deceiving title.

First thing you need to do is reduce the production of acid in your stomach with a proton pump inhibitor (PPI), there are many OTC medications you can get like Prilosec or the generic omeprazole. Second thing is I recommend Gaviscon right before you go to bed to create a barrier to absorb the reflux. Changing your diet is also beneficial. All of these you can do immediately with little cost. Then look for ways to improve your sleeping such as the video recommends.

@XinsidethefireX Too bad for them if they don't understand. If you watch what you eat and drink for a long time, you body will most likely heal itself, and you'll be able to eat "everything" again,"but" within reason. Just a little bit of everything won't hurt you, and it won't bring back those symptoms. Give it 3 or 4 months. No spicy foods. No cakes. No alcohol. No sweet chocolates. Dark might be ok. Try it. Drink lots and lots and lots of water. If it won't go down, put a little sugar in it.

@XinsidethefireX You can get cancer in your esophagus from constant hydrochloric acid burning. It eventually forms scar tissue if, at the least, not controlled.

@XxjceeT6xX what?????? :(:(

I hate acid reflux. I hate it when you're out and know you shouldn't eat anymore but you feel rude. I hate it when I go out or to a party and have to explain why I can't drink. I hate how people don't believe me. :( Plus I'm pretty sure that it was caused by taking too much ibuprofen for headaches when I was younger and all I needed was allergy relief pills! It sucks!
