Acid Reflux Causes 6 Lethal Cancers

Most often we think of Acid Reflux or heartburn as mere inconvenience. It may keep you up at night and prevent you from enjoying a good meal but it’s not dangerous.

Okay, it’s been linked to ulcer but we’re talking about something much more serious.

New study published in journal JAMA Otolaryngology: Head & Neck Surgery, proves that acid reflux increases your risk of six types of cancers by up to 286% (almost as bad as smoking).

The Louisiana researchers used the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Medicare database to identify 13,805 people with upper airway and upper digestive tract cancers who were added to the database between 2003 and 2011.

They were all 66 years and older.

They examined them for GERD and compared them with a randomly picked group of 13,805 Medicare beneficiaries without cancer or GERD.

GERD (Gastroesophageal reflux disease), is a very common digestive disorder that most often the cause of acid reflux or heartburn.

They found that elderly people with GERD were, compared to those without GERD:

– 2.86 times more likely to have cancer of the larynx
– 2.54 times more likely to have cancer of the hypopharynx
– 2.47 times more likely to have cancer of the oropharynx
– 2.14 times more likely to have cancer of the tonsils
– 2.04 times more likely to have cancer of the nasopharynx, and
– 1.40 times more likely to have cancer of the sinuses.

All these structures are in the back of your throat or at the top of your esophagus.

The reason acid reflux can almost triple your risk of these cancers is that it lets strong stomach acid run up to your throat, damaging the cells in that area. It’s in essence the same as exposing your cells to strong chemicals.

This shows that acid reflux (GERD) should not be treated lightly. If you have frequent heartburn, you should take immediate action to cure your condition.
