Heartburn Drugs Cause This Allergy (Study)

Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) have been proven to cause several types of fatal diseases, including cancer.

A new study, published in the journal Nature Communications, reveals yet another dangerous disease. Allergic reactions!

And the danger gets stronger as we get older.

The researchers consulted the health insurance records of 8.2 million people, covering around 97 percent of the Austrian population.

They evaluated drug prescriptions between 2009 and 2013 to see which drug was most commonly prescribed after the prescription for a stomach acid suppression drug.

Shockingly, people who had received an acid suppression drug were two to three times more likely to receive a subsequent prescription for anti-allergy medication than they were to receive a prescription for any other medication type.

This is too high to be coincidental.

In fact, the likelihood of receiving anti-allergy medication after an acid suppression drug increased with age, with people over the age of 60 being five times more likely to receive an anti-allergy drug than any other drug.

Stomach acid is vital for several reasons: it enables your body to successfully digest proteins, and it kills organisms and other substances that may otherwise enter your digestive tract.

When you take drugs that suppress the production of stomach acid, you make it more likely that organisms and substances can enter your digestive tract to cause irritation and infections.

In addition, such drugs change the makeup of the bacterial colonies inside your intestines, which, in turn, causes changes in your immune system. It is possible that these immune system changes can make your body inappropriately sensitive to harmless substances, which is basically the definition of an allergy.

This may be the reason why acid reflux drugs have been proven to cause many lethal diseases, including a few types of cancer.

Here is the story of one man diagnosed with acid reflux caused cancer and how he beat both his cancer and acid reflux using three ingredients you already have in your kitchen…
