Block Acid Reflux to Prevent Esophageal Problems!
Categories
Gastro esophageal reflux disease or GERD affects 60 million Americans.Most GERD suffers seek ways to relieve pain and burning, such as taking proton-pump inhibiting drugs like Prilosec® or Prevacid®.1
These drugs suppress stomach acid formation, but do not block the backwash of harsh stomach contents (such as digestive enzymes, bile, and acidic foods) into the delicate esophageal lining. A consequence of chronic esophageal exposure to stomach contents is deadly esophageal cancer!2,3
