Heartburn Home Remedies Articles | Remedy

By: Richard Bleuze

Heartburn is a burning sensation and pain in the stomach and chest, behind the breastbone. The symptoms of heartburn are the following: bloating, gas, nausea, shortness of breath and/or an acidic or sour taste in the throat and mouth.

Heartburn is caused when hydrochloric acid, which is use to digest food, is release up the esophagus. On its way up the acid irritates the sensitive tissues in the esophagus and throat. Usually the esophageal sphincter muscle contracts thus preventing the stomach acid from shooting  up into the esophagus, but if this muscle is not functioning properly, the acid can slip past it and this is when heartburn symptoms start, however it is called Gastroesophageal reflux disease because of the muscle malfunction but it’s also known as dyspepsia, chronic heartburn or acid indigestion. If left un treated the repeated flow of acid through the esophagus can scar and produce changes in the cells lining,  it can cause cancer later in life.

A hiatus hernia develops when the stomach bulges up into the diaphragm, this condition can also cause heartburn, other triggers for heartburn are alcohol drinking, smoking and eating acidic foods. 

The good news is that herbs can deal with this problem very easily 

If you are one of those people, that uses antacids, think about this next time you are about to take one. Antacids reduce nutrient absorption, such as, iron and increase blood pressure they upset the kidneys and their relief is short.

The best solution for heartburn is the use of herbs and vegetables.
