		<description><![CDATA[Heartburn is known to affect over 40% of Americans who are adults. It is described as a burning discomfort behind the breastbone that moves up to the neck and throat. It is sometimes followed with a bitter or sour taste in the mouth. It is not caused by heart problems but sometimes, the pain caused by heart problems can thought to feel like a heartburn.
Heartburn is normally triggered by eating, lying down, bending, straining or stooping. It also affects 1 in 4 pregnant women in their 3rd trimester (possibly because the baby is pushing onto the mother&#8217;s stomach).
Heartburn is also called by other names, including sour stomach, indigestion, or pyrosis. Heartburn is the most common symptom of gastro-esophageal reflux (GERD), also known as acid reflux. Whilst Heartburn is one of the primary symptoms of GERD, it is not the sole symptom. Sometimes, people get a sour taste in their mouth ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When you get help from your doctor for your acid reflux problem, they typically do an examination, and in some cases, will perform further testing. When your doctor determines that acid reflux is the cause of your symptoms, the advice is often to make some changes to your diet and how you sleep. You will without doubt be given a prescription as well. The most popular prescription is a proton pump inhibitor that retards stomach acid production, and this allows your esophagus and other tissues to heal. All the same, not all GERD sufferers want to take any drugs, and sometimes, they just don&#8217;t work. If you don&#8217;t want these cures, you have the option of looking into some acid reflux natural cures to ease your suffering.
Prescription drugs can work, but a lot of sufferers worry about possible side effects, and most people don&#8217;t want to take a prescription drugs ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Some of the methods that doctors use to diagnose gastroesophageal reflux disease can be confusing or difficult to understand. When it comes time for you to decide which diagnosis procedure you would like your doctor to use for you, it would be in your best interests to inform yourself about upper endoscopy, one common technique for acid reflux diagnosing.
You will want to know how to prepare yourself for this procedure and what information you will get from going through with it. You can find out by reading on.
What is this procedure exactly? An upper endoscopy will permit your doctor to see what is happening on your insides without ever having to make an incision. For this reason it is truly a marvel of modern medicine. In order to accomplish this, your physician will introduce a tube with a small camera into your throat and into your stomach.

		<description><![CDATA[Few people are aware of this, but studies have shown that acid reflux is one of the leading cause of a nagging cough. In fact, only bronchial asthma and post-nasal drip cause more cases of a chronic cough.
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is the medical term for what we know as acid reflux.  Acid, bile, and pepsin make up the substance of the regurgitated liquid.
The symptoms of acid reflux include nausea, burping, a sore throat, wheezing, difficulty swallowing, a pain in the chest that&#8217;s often mistaken as a heart attack, and in some cases chronic coughing. In fact, nearly three out of every four sufferers experience night time symptoms (such as coughing, snoring, and chest pain) that are not usually thought of as typical acid reflux symptoms. An acid reflux cough is one of these. When stomach acid rises to the vocal cords and is passed to the lower airway, ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We&#8217;ve all experienced the discomfort of heartburn after a large or spicy meal. It generally takes the form of a painful, burning sensation in your chest or throat. Most of us pop an over the counter antacid and are feeling better within minutes. However, when heartburn becomes a regular experience in your life, showing up two or more times a week, then it&#8217;s more commonly referred to as acid reflux and it can be much more serious.
Acid reflux occurs when stomach liquids have backed up into the esophagus, the tube that carries food from your mouth to your stomach. The burning sensation you experience is caused by the irritation to the lining of the esophagus. Chronic acid reflux occurs when the esophagus never has a chance to heal before the next occurrence. This continuous irritation can eventually lead to permanent damage and major complications. For example, scar tissue can begin ...]]></description>
