Heartburn Cure

Those of you reading this article are probably heartburn sufferers and are in search for a heartburn cure.

We will start off by answering what the definition of heartburn is then we will talk about possible cures.

Heartburn despite the root has nothing to do with the heart itself. It is a pain or discomfort that is felt in your chest or sometimes it can be felt in the upper stomach. The burning sensation can also be felt in the middle section of your back. Heartburn can be triggered by the types of meals we eat and the type of posture we sit in. Heartburn is a digestive problem and not an actual heart problem as mentioned above.

What Causes Heartburn you may ask ?

In your stomach you have acid which is used to digest food. In much simpler terms when you eat a meal it passes through your oesophagus which is the tube the carries food to the stomach from your mouth. Once the food is in your stomach it is broken down using this acid. Therefore, when you experience heartburn it?s small amounts of this acid rising from your stomach to your oesophagus . Another word for this action is reflux or acid reflux.

The issue at hand that causes heartburn is when it rises to your oesophagus (your tube that passes food to stomach from neck) there is not protection or stomach lining to prevent the burning from the acid. In your stomach there is protection by your inner stomach lining.

What are some specific causes of heartburn ?

There are many issues that can cause heartburn in an individual.

Smoking can cause heartburn. Because there is a muscle that separates your stomach from your gullet(oesophagus). When you smoke this muscle can be relaxed allowing passage of your stomach acid to your oesophagus.

Being Overweight can be a cause of heartburn. Again because of the extra fat around the stomach it will cause the muscle that blocks your stomach acid to become relaxed and allow passage to your throat area.

If you eat large meals. This can b! e anothe r cause of heartburn. Your best bet would be to eat much smaller meals so your stomach will not become to full causing your blocking muscle to move out of place allowing acid to pass.

Wearing tight clothing around the waste also causes heartburn.

Also, if you eat large meals right before you go to bed will cause heartburn also.
