New study reveals how heartburn, condition that most people consider annoying but not really dangerous, can lead to cancer.
What’s more, relying on drugs for acid reflux to prevent complications from chronic heartburn is futile, reports a recent study.
A condition that people with frequent, uncontrolled heartburn are developing more and more is Barrett’s esophagus, and it is marked by an alarming change in the cellular structure of the lining of the esophagus.
Untreated, it can lead to adenocarcinoma, a form of esophageal cancer.
What’s more frustrating, is that drugs commonly prescribed to stop reflux don’t seem to have any effect in preventing Barrett’s Esophagus or the resulting adenocarcinoma.
The only way to eliminate the damage that is done to the esophagus is to eliminate the reflux in the first place, which proton pump inhibitors don’t always do. They do help with symptom control, but not the underlying cause.
Scientists urge that to prevent the complications, eliminating the cause in the first place will be critical.
An all-natural way to eliminate the underlying cause of acid reflux today…

Reflux is an unpleasant condition that often occurs after eating. My wife is suffering from reflux and have tried several kinds of medicines but no success. The only effective way for her is minimizing her food intakes.
I hope Tita gets well soon.
She is doing fine Dennis although she gets the reflux when she over eat. Thanks for the concern
I know how she feels ,I have had a hiatal hernia since 1986 and heartburn is a common thing for me and not pleasant at all … wishing her well 🙁
It never ceases to amaze me how modern society has moved away from common wisdom. An apple a day….. is not just a saying!
Reflux or heartburn is caused by food that is too rich and too often repeated. The main causes are:
1) oily food (bad for the body on all counts),
2) sugary foods (equally bad) and.
3) spicy food.
It occurs mostly at night when the body has been in a vertical position for a few hours and the accumulated acid can more easily work its way up the oesophagus.
More often than not you'll find there is a combination of at least 2 of these causes. Try and reduce on these; one doesn't have to abolish them, but simply eat in moderation, which is the magic word!
Antacids just deal with the symptom; they do not heal!
And the solution is so simple! An apple a day!
Almost any apple will do, but the most effective ones and most pleasant to eat are the yellow and red varieties (like Gala). Eat one or two apples (severe cases) before going to sleep and you’ll not have any problems!
Eat them every night (whatever you have eaten) before going to bed and you’ll find after some time (6 months?) that you have cured yourself permanently from a very persistent and annoying affliction.
Antacid business is big bucks, so you won't find big Pharma interested in promoting this cure at all. Eating apples is cheaper than swallowing antacid in whichever form and it cures!
If you have forgotten to eat an apple before going to sleep and you wake up with heartburn then don’t waste time. Go and eat an apple; the relief is almost at once, but can take 15 – 30 minutes. Stay upright until there is no more discomfort!
Tip: Eat a tossed salad with a diced apple with every meal; tasty and good for you in every sense and is sufficient once your body system has been regulated.

Heartburn is usually associated with regurgitation of gastric acid (gastric reflux) which is the major symptom of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).^’*,
Have a nice day http://www.picturesofherpes.co
One teaspoon of sodium bicarbonate in warm water on empty stomach. Have once per day for 3 days and condition will be gone.
thanks Ren for the advice
