How Digestive Science Treatment Works
The term reflux means going against the flow, in this case, the normal flow of food. When swallowed, the food passes from the mouth to the throat (pharynx), and then to the esophagus to the stomach. In the stomach, food is mixed with gastric juices, which among other things are composed of acid (which is needed to digest protein).
This acid does not harm the stomach because the body produces mucus that protects it from the action of hydrochloric acid, but this protective mucus is not produced by the esophagus, pharynx or mouth. If food and acid from the stomach go back into the esophagus, they could produce irritation and burns.
When the esophagus is constantly irritated by stomach acid, you have the symptoms of GERD, heartburn (heartburn), chronic cough (lasting more than a month), shortness of breath (because of bronchospasm), difficulty swallowing (dysphagia) and in severe cases, pain on swallowing (odynophagia) or chest pain that may spread to the neck and jaw, this pain is caused by inflammation of the esophagus (esophagitis) and can easily be mistaken for a heart heart.
This disease should be diagnosed as soon as a doctor, as there is a risk of developing esophageal cancer if not treated timely.
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), gastric reflux disease or acid reflux disease refers to a disease characterized by the presence of chronic symptoms and / or damage to the lining of the esophagus due to an abnormal reflux of contents the stomach into the esophagus.
This is commonly due to transient or permanent changes in the natural mechanisms that prevent the stomach contents into the esophagus. Causes may be a failure of lower esophageal sphincter, transient relaxation of lower esophageal sphincter, a change in the expulsion of gastric reflux from the esophagus or a hiatal hernia.
The Acid Control Formula of Digestive Science has been made with a dual action formulation that aids to:
- Cover and guard the esophagus from the hydrochloric acid that has escaped your stomach to create that aching, burning sensation in your chest.
- Decreasing the overproduction of hydrochloric acid in your stomach.
The Acid Control Formula works rapidly to control your dependence on damaging antacids (which only serve to toss your digestive enzymes even additional off balance and further increase your hydrochloric acid production).
This formula is also made to provide you with the so much needed pain relief, so you can have the time to find and deal with the real cause of your gastroesophageal reflux disease. The second part of the Reflux Elimination System is the digestive enzyme restitution. As a final part of the treatment, this formulation also includes Daily Digestion Support, which is a once-per-day fibre and nutrient supplement that you take as a refreshing drink.
