Treatment of Heartburn

Start your own Self Health Revolution and join the popular movement for the freedom to be healed and heal naturally.

The conventional treatment of simple heartburn is only changing the symptoms but leaving the cause of heartburn unchecked, un addressed and unhealed.

There seems to be a battle over whether you should be allowed to heal yourself naturally as an alternative to being regulated by prescriptive allopathic care.

You want to be more than symptoms free . . . you want to be beyond ever having heartburn again, right?

So why start taking even over-the-counter (OTC) drugs? You already know OTC drugs are the gateway to stronger prescriptive drugs.

Heartburn is a mega billion dollar business, take my word for it.

Why is that you might ask? Should the news get out, then you?d know ?little old heartburn is a gateway health problem.?

It leads to worse things than just a case of heartburn.

Typically the treatment of heartburn requires you taking prescriptive strength antacid blocker or Proton Pump Inhibitors (PPIs) and surgery for the rest of your live . . . as you were a member of the Old Boys Club or something.

The conventional treatment of heartburn means following a protocol of drugs.

It’s ironic because the cure for heartburn and the rest of it is most likely nutritional.

Why chose to even look down the chemical pathway of medicine when you first haven?t even embraced natural healing alternatives . . . time-tested scientifically verified natural healing alternatives.

The treatment of heartburn is a step down from healing naturally. You first must address the cause of your heartburn or acid indigestion by replenishing your cells with whole food sourced nutrition.

Eat lots of it all day long.

Raw food can help prevent you from ever thinking you might need treatment for heartburn.

You need to have an epiphany, a metanoia or a brilliant stroke of insight. Realize your own self health revolution by learning to nurture the natural cure for heartburn.

Treating heartburn as a gateway disease puts the risk of ignoring your heartburn in perspective doesn’t it?

Follow the natural pathway to the root of your heartburn as an alternative treatment and you’ll see your heartburn go away once and for all.

Burning In the Chest

Get Rid of Heartburn

Feeling a burning sensation in the chest is alarming! You may panic because this feeling can be very painful and sharp. Depending on your tolerance for pain, burning in the chest can be incapacitating. It is possible that the burning you feel is derived from heartburn. Heartburn can create a radiating pain in your chest region that may be unbearable for you. Heartburn is a symptom of acid reflux and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and is caused when the stomach acid goes into the esophagus by way of a weak lower esophageal sphincter. Heartburn that occurs more than twice per week is used to diagnose acid reflux and GERD.

Heartburn is what causes a burning feeling in the chest. Due to the acid that has entered the esophagus, the esophagus can’t help but be damaged. The acidity of the gastric acid is too high for the esophagus to handle and defend against. An esophagus is not capable of resisting the damage induced by gastric acid, unlike the stomach. When the acid comes into contact with the esophagus, the lining of the esophagus becomes bruised and irritated. This irritation can cause you to feel like you are burning up on the inside.

Since the esophagus is positioned in the torso, adjacent to the breast bone, this occurrence can be referred to as heartburn or burning in the chest. The intense feeling is enough to make you weak. When you lie down, lift heavy items or bend over after a heavy meal, the burning feeling can escalate. Eating and drinking while you feel the burning sensation may worsen the pain level.

Burning of the chest could mean that you are having a cardiovascular problem. You may think that you are having a heart attack. Symptoms of a heart attack and heartburn can be extremely similar so you should always err on the side of caution. Don’t assume that you are having one problem over the other. Contact a medical professional if you feel severe burning in the chest. A heart attack can be fatal so always seek appropriate help.

Other symptoms of heartburn are burning of the throat, hoarseness, chest pain, chronic coughing, difficulty swallowing and a bitter taste in the mouth. Holistic remedies for heartburn are having aloe juice, drinking water, eating papaya and ginger root. If these remedies don’t stop the burning in your chest, try changing your habits. Quit smoking and drink limited amounts of alcohol. Eat healthier meals with lots of vegetables. Exercise and maintain a healthy weight to prevent obesity and diabetes, both causes of acid reflux and heartburn. Eating lighter meals can reduce acid production and reflux. Make sure that you understand which foods cause your body to react. Review your eating habits to ascertain the foods that are making you reflux and have heartburn.

Natural Heartburn Remedy

The natural heartburn remedy your looking for is not in a pill or is it to be found in any medication.

The natural remedy for your heartburn involves you making a commitment to some lifestyle modifications.

First to remedy this acid indigestion issue called heartburn . . . you must start eliminating known and unknown sugars from your diet. Specifically all refined sugars and especially anything which contains high fructose corn sugar.

High fructose corn syrup is a well stage marketing lie and unfortunately it took a while for the evidence to get onto the main stream media, but the science is in.

Not only will eliminating these empty calories help you naturally remedy your heartburn, it will also help naturally remedy any obesity issues you may be dealing with . . . which in turn helps prevent diabetes and heart disease as well as reduce risk of cancer.

Guess you could say heartburn increases risk of cancer too, especially throat cancer.

So technically by using a natural remedy for your heartburn you may also be curing cancer.

It really is amazing how many natural remedies for heartburn and other health issues that there are and yet, billions of dollars are spent selling drugs directly to consumers . . . drugs that carry known and unknown health risks and some that even make the original health problem worse . . . like antacids.

Take for instance heartburn. If treated conventionally, the cause remains festering eventually into chronic acid indigestion, then on to stronger drugs, which create acid rebound, then onto GERD and possibly throat cancer.

Natural Heartburn ReliefAll that suffering simply because you weren’t told about the natural remedy for heartburn.

Next natural remedy for heartburn is to eliminate bad fats and trans fatty acids (hydrogenated oils). Eating fried foods can depletes nutrients and even cause more inflammation by increasing white blood cell (an auto-immune response)

The third natural remedy for heartburn is to reduce your dietary levels of animal protein down below 10%, this will also help reduce your risks for other degenerative diseases also triggered by inflammation and nutritional deficiencies.

Last natural remedy for heartburn I can add today is to reduce eating refined flour of all types.

Gastrointestinal Reflux Disease

Developing a digestive disease can take a toll on your body. Since digestion is needed to sustain life, any problems in this area can have an overwhelming impact. Gastrointestinal reflux disease (GERD) is a common type of digestive disease. GERD should not be taken lightly. Contracting GERD directly correlates with the status of the lower esophageal sphincter. A malfunctioning LES greatly contributes to the development of GERD. The LES is an important part of the esophagus and can be found at the bottom near the stomach. The LES helps two digestive organs to link and work together, the stomach and esophagus. For food to get to the stomach for digestion, the LES has to open for passage. Normally, the LES will close tightly after the food has entered, but in some cases, it does not. This kind of LES can be classified as weak.

Having a weak LES is problematic because stomach acid has no barrier that stops it from getting into the esophagus. Stomach acid bounces around the stomach and is particularly mobile when you lie down and bend over. When you stand erect, the stomach acid will remain relatively in place even with a weakened LES. Once you become vertical or move about, this is when the acid can splash within the esophagus and even reach the mouth.

To prevent GERD, you should try to do three main things.

1) Regulate the development of gastric acids.

GERD may affect you because of the accumulation of a large quantity of gastric acid in your stomach. This makes it easier for acid to escape. There are things you can do to stop gastric acids from being excessively produced. To reduce production of acid, try to eat smaller meals more frequently. Larger meals require more acid. Papaya has an enzyme that is a natural digestive aid. Eating papaya can help the stomach to break down foods without need for as much acid. If you have diabetes, the way your body digests foods can complicate GERD. You may be able to rid yourself of diabetes with diet and exercise.

2) Keep the lower esophageal sphincter strong.

Lifestyle behaviors can weaken the LES. Smoking and drinking alcohol are not good for strengthening the LES. Smoking and drinking exposes the esophagus to toxins that make it weak. Don’t eat foods that trigger reflux. Fatty foods, garlic, onion and caffeine are common causes of reflux.

3) Help the lower esophageal sphincter.

Conditions like obesity and hiatal hernia contribute to GERD. Carrying abnormal fat deposits around the stomach puts pressure on this organ. The stomach may not be able to occupy its normal space because of obesity. A stomach under pressure will likely expel gastric acid to the esophagus. Do your part by eating right and working out. Hiatal hernia is what happens when the stomach and LES move above or beside the diaphragm. This awkward position makes GERD possible. Although hereditary for some, risk factors for hiatal hernia include lifting heavy items, smoking and drug use.
