The most common cause of acid reflux is food that's acidic or high in fat-like citrus fruits, tomatoes, onions, chocolate, coffee, cheese, and peppermint. Spicy foods or large meals can also be the root of distress. Other sources of heartburn include aspirin or ibuprofen, as well as some sedatives and blood pressure medications.
I have also gerd symptoms & shortness of breath, 😢,i inhale &exhale to maintain healthy & relax but on & on it was ok but sometimes is not ok. I always pray to God to heal my sickness.
Very good presentation. ❤️ But GERD is because of low acid in stomach which causes opening of esophageal sphincter. Low acid is strong enough to burn the esophagus. So no need to try to lower the acid with medicines that she says here. Rather increasing acid content of stomach by apple cider vinegar & lemon & control of infection if any will help. Higher acid will prevent the esophagus sphincter from opening on lying position. All other information is correct. Thanks
It cant be low acidity cos i cant stand citrus fruits and vinegar they make me feel worse and only anti acids give me relief until i touch the trigger foods again.
I have that condition but i had study called "bravo" and they found a bacteria in my esophagus, my gastroenterologist prescribed a medication that i took for 14 days straight, i can't thank her enough!!
5:35 - Really safe? What are you talking about? Prolonged use of PPIs, especially beyond the recommended duration, may be associated with certain risks. Some studies suggest potential associations with bone fractures, kidney disease, and certain infections.
This does nothing to address the shortness of breath. Acid reflux sounds fairly benign but the symptoms are horrific. Elevation of BP, the struggle to breathe, the feeling that you have a Giant tumor in your chest squeezing your heart and vital organs. Health professionals do not take this disease seriously enough.
I’m looking into surgery soon, I can’t sleep and I fear eating to the point where I’m losing weight, much more than I care to lose behind an illness. It amps my anxiety up to the max and that’s a whole other problem in itself 😳😩😞
So true. I have been thinking the same. Even the surgery don't guarantee that you'll be relieved from acid reflux. More research is needed to find a perfect cure for it.
@@user-fi8yu7xs2jthink very carefully before opting for surgery. Only do it if the symptoms can't be handled and it's disturbing your day to day life alot.
I was actually told by several doctors (an ear, nose, and throat specialist, and a gastroenterologist) that I have Gerd, but I don’t experience a chronic cough, heartburn, or regurgitation. I burp when I eat certain foods, such as fried foods, or acidic/carbonated drinks, but other than that, I don’t have any other symptoms of acid reflux. I went into the ear, nose and throat specialist, because I had an extremely hoarse voice that got really bad after I sang. I also heard vibration coming from my throat, mostly on one side, the right side. They told me that it was acid reflux, and I don’t believe them. People have told me that they thought it was a vocal cord problem, since it got worse when I sang, and there have been times I literally lost my voice and was out of whisper for days. I also have several people that have been diagnosed with acid reflux that have told me it doesn’t sound like I have it so I would just like people thoughts on it.
@@MajesticBred just looked it up. I wouldn’t say I have “excessive mucus”per say. In fact, it depends on how much/well I sleep. I snore, so I don’t know if that has something to go with it, but the less hours I sleep, I tend to feel there is something in there only in the morning, but not really in the day unless I eat dairy (which is a food prone to cause mucus in the throat regardless of other heath conditions). In addition, I don’t really have a chronic sore throat. When I went to the throat specialist, he said, “it’s red back there.” When my doctor looked, she gave me an antibiotic. The throat pain/redness has since went away, but arose another somewhat strange symptom; I now only truly have a somewhat “cough” when sing. Almost immediately after I start, no matter if I am properly breathing or not, I will cough. I also don’t really have any symptoms of asthma or trouble breathing other than the somewhat strange cough when I sing. They also put me on omeprazole. I’ve been taking it for abt a month/month and a half and still no improvement
I have shortness of breath along with acid reflux and chest pain. I have been on pantoprazole for so long and it makes my symptoms worse. I don’t know which medications will help most. I also take antacids everyday!!! My GERD is severe.
Aleve has helped me with my shortness of breath I still get it when I use too much force but it’s gotten better as far as the breathing I also have severe GERD still dealing with acid reflux unfortunately
GERD is because of low acid in stomach which causes opening of esophageal sphincter . So don’t try to reduce the acid with medicines that she says here. Rather increase your acid content of stomach & infection if any..
Dont do anything guys. First thing we all must do is measure your acidity in your stomach. If high, take PPI, if low take ACV. Secondly, reduce your meals to once per day for 2 weeks with intermittent fasting. Remember, acid jumps up when stomach is filled not when empty. Thirdly mild walk after food helps. Fourthly make sure you try a diet that suits you. Low carb and high protein one does it for me. Consider carnivore diet for a month. Try all these for a month and thank me later 😊
@@stenn8932I'm sorry you are going through that, for me it was an anxiety attack for the first time three weeks ago and this doesn't go away it's very annoying.. 😢 the chest pain went away but the burning throat stays smdh
@@stenn8932 and that's why I stopped eating late as much because if I did it would keep me up and have to eat like two bananas then wait for them to help my heartburn.. 😭
I have tightness on neck and it’s pain while I drink or eat something it’s pain in the middle of chest and bloating and acid come to neck and it’s goes down. 1. I am getting help with cabbage juice 2. I ate rice (Jaulo) which is easy to swallow. 3. I take omneprazole medicine Please suggest me the how to get relief from GERD I Have been suffering from today as this symptoms and I change my lifestyle.
For the people who suffer ulcer n gerd based on my experience within 3days to 1 week after I used this method my feeling was great and better everyday ,thanks God ❤
it's very painful when the air is stuckn on esophagus and throat, If i swallow anything it hurts cause it will push each other. I feel sharp pain inside of me. I hope I will still heal. This is a very bad feeling. Been on omeprasol for a few days now. Same when sometimes i need to poop a gas will come up and it hurts on my left. My health is getting much much worse and I am having too much issues this old age. I think I will not stay longer in this planet.
I am suffering from GERD from the last 1 year and not able to treat it by antacid or any acidity tablets.right now I am using some homeopathy medicine like( robina pse 30 and asafoetida 30 CH ) these medicines are really helpfull. Some symptoms that I have are 1 > nausea 2 > vomiting after heavy meals and in morning 3 > cough during sleep time 4 > chest pain
It might be a mechanical reason. What’s the reason why that sphincter isn’t closing? The esophagus passes through the respiratory diaphragm. That diaphragm is attached to the ribs. If those ribs are stuck and putting some line of force on that diaphragm the force can also be put on the sphincter. Not allowing it to close.
I don't know if this is esophagitis or gastritis. I just have this painful gas that keeps going up. it burns and it is sharp pain. I find it hard to keep forcing to burp it out. you said ppi don't have side effects?? they do have many side effects especially if prolong use.
Hi mednaz and everyone I suffer with acid prblem to the extent the acid rises to my neck and throats and I experience asthma attack symptoms difficulty breathing whereby I have to use a ventolin asthma inhaler to help me breath normally again, does anyone know of a natural cure please. Great video thankyou
@@baebee4453I can say i m feeling better than before. As I've mentioned that i was not sure i had suffering from Indigestion or GERD! I've started enzyme tablet named (Digegluten) prescribed by gastro and pudin hara ( by self assessment ), i feel now so much better. One more thing i'd like to add, I've did endoscopy, colonoscopy, h pylori test, stool test, blood tests, all those test always came normal. I hope this will help you too, you can try any other brand of enzyme tablet + pudin hara.
I have GERD since one year . I feel nauseous in the morning and have sour taste in the mouth . Sometimes I cannot eat full meal and I feel nauseous . I took medicine for around 3 months and after that it reduced my symptoms a lot . But stress and anxiety again triggered my acid reflux and I am experiencing similiar symptoms as before and I am in medication right now again. Is not it permanently curable ?
As my experience sayss ...it is curable if u change ur lifestyle...try to take bottlegourd (loci)juice or fennel seed (saunph) water in morning empty stomach...it will give u relief...and avoid antacid...
Medicine is not the solution . Medicine is temporary.. Once the medicine doses is over GERD/ACID REFLUX happens again. I too have this problem. I stopped taking medicines by simply changing my lifestyle . Here are the few things I follow and changed my lifestyle: Don't: 1. Avoid eating non-veg foods 2. Avoid drinking tea/cofee/fresh milk/juice/sugar/sweets 3. Avoid fast food 4. Avoid packaging food 5. Avoid drinking cold or hot water 6. Avoid cold food 7. Avoid tomato/lemon/oraganges/pineapple 8. Avoid fried foods/oil 9. Avoid srress 10. Avoid raw vegetables 11. Avoid eating chili and spicy foods 12. Don't use phones/tv/ or any electronic gadgets after 7 Pm 13. Avoid doing hard work 14. Avoid gym Do's 1. Wake up Early morning 2. Sleep between 8:00 pm -9:00 pm 3. Drink 2 cups of water in the morning ( lukewarm) 4. Dont forget to eat morning breakfast ( it could be oats boil or porridge) 5. Take your meal after 2-3 hours of breakfast ( make sure you eat only boiled vegetables which is cooked properly) 6. Drink a glass of water every 5-10 minutes before food and 5-10 minutes after food 7. Maintain diet routine weekly. 8. To get protein eat only one piece of fish in a week 9. Eat 2-3 pieces of egg in a week 10. Make sure you do light exercise like walking/ jogging after lunch or dinner 11. Read motivational books 12. Make a prayer to Almighty God before bed and after wake up . 13. Eat only apple and pomegranate right after food 15. Stay happy always
@@sureshkumar-fp8qymine has stop now, always make sure you don’t eat late at night, continue taking your medication as doctor prescribed, always talk a walk especially after eating
Does GERD happens to 4 yrs old kid.. my daughter is suffering from this after we were all affected by covid.. does covid have any relationship with GERD? I am so worried..
It automatically cannot be cured, medicines are dangerous because they have side effects, can't stop eating, surgery is not possible for everyone, so what is the solution? I am pure vegetarian, don't drink, don't take nicotine, don't eat fatty, fried or junk food, do yoga for an hour everyday, eat simple food like rice plain dal, veg without spice, don't have milk or curd, still suffering from hyper acidity, constipation and indigestion. What to do, whom to approach?
Get the water of your house checked, check its TDS level, it made a big difference to my mother.Sometimes our diet is good but the water in our house is not good, that's why get your home quater test done and get a good filter installed.
Avoid yourself from being stress, that will help... When you are stress our body releases too much cortisol, this hormone will make your stomach produce more acid... Stress is one reason why some have acid reflux...
I am diagnosed with Gerd 2 months back and that has really affected my quality of life ..i am a very worried about this condition and feel i have to live with it forever ..i had the below questions and would be thankful if someone can answer it 1) is Gerd a lifetime issue ? Is it possible that the spincter which is relaxed now can close again if we follow good diet and make life style changes 2) i do not face a lot of acid reflux but majorly my issue is with food getting stuck in throad ..why does that happen ?
How's your gerd now? Has it healed yet? If so, can u please share what healed it? I have the same problem as food getting stuck in my esophagus and then will regurgitate for 2 weeks now. This is so difficult.
@@PoiZonIvY_ i am still having issues of food getting stuck in throat, discomfort in the eusophegaus, trapped air etc but It is slightly better due to lifestyle changes and medication however i must say this is a slow process and know this will take some time and patience…also i do not want to be dependent on medications for longer as i fear the side effects but unfortunately that is the only option for now…i do admit it is really difficult to live with this condition However i also feel its important that we have to keep ourselves positive and take necessary steps and for those reasons i have enrolled myself into gerd programme while trying to make changes to my food, sleeping habits, managing stress and anxiety and following gerd related guidelines…please do not think you are alone but we all are in it and i am sure that we will all soon be well..jus curious about when did u start geeting the gerd issue ?
Many people don’t realize how a poor quality of life this disorder entails. I can’t eat nor sleep and stay in fear of the flare ups. It can be debilitating and exhausting mentally and physically. 😒
Whenever i eat after a while that food come to my mouth.... Isn't it GERD? Also while exercising i feel sever burn ❤️🔥 in my throat and stomach today during exercising i vomited what should i do? Should i consult doctor?
I have tightness in chest time to time and it allways feels like something tight is in chest and sometime it become difficult to breath is it gerd or something els and I notice that if I eat paper sometime it burns my chess I have been suffering this for 4 mounth can any one tell what is is
It is GERD. Stomach acid coming up feels like a burning sensation, so some people like myself experience trouble breathing when acid comes up 😊 hope this helps
Please anyone with acid reflux get an endoscopy a.s.a.p within 2 months. I speak from personal experience. My wife had to wait 6 months turned out to be a stomach tumour.
Hey doc, Everytime i go swimming, i get a lot of burping, as if my stomach was bloated or something. Anyway, it is very painful and 80% of the time i am drowsy.
i was facing lot of bad breath after brushing multiple times does it a symptoms of GRED also i have a feel something stuck in my throat sometimes i feel like my food came backwards in my throat and bloated feeling please someone tell me
@@46pippi thanks for the feedback, it takes FOREVER to get seen for a GI appointment, I’ve found that working out constantly along w/ a OTC PPI (Prolisec) and Gaviscon are helpful to cope
Yes, I've been dealing with GERD for about a month now. I hate how it triggers my anxiety, which in turn makes everything else feel worse. I'm starting to have more bad days than good ones. So I'm trying to pay attention to what triggers it.
Often its just high histamine foods. Fermented foods, legumes like peanut butter, coffee, black tea, Aged cheese, canned meat, alcohol, etc But also obesity and just over eating.
Over eating is probably what does it for me. I eat pretty small for breakfast. Oatmeal or grits, 2 boiled eggs, banana and a smoothie. Lunch salmon, sweet potatoes, asparagus, quinoa and avocado but at night I eat so many larabars with almond butter, walnuts and raisins and then I lay down right after. Only to get up a couple hours later and eat more. I have to change that. Acid reflux can be very tough sometimes
@@K-xb2qz I read it's often high fat foods that can trigger acid reflux, could be the almond butter. But mine goes away when i eat some cheddar cheese so idk. strange.
Trigger foods Some people choose to avoid common trigger foods, such as coffee and chocolate, to alleviate GERD symptoms. However, this approach has little clinical backing, while results vary between individuals. Some common trigger foods may include: - chocolate - mint - carbonated beverages - acidic drinks, such as orange juice and coffee - caffeine - acidic foods, such as tomato sauce and citrus fruits - spicy foods - alcohol People with GERD may choose to try eliminating each food type from their diet to see if their symptoms improve. If symptoms do not improve, they can incorporate the food type back into their diet. In 2022 guidelines for diagnosing and managing GERD, the American College of Gastroenterology suggests avoiding trigger foods to help manage GERD symptoms. However, they also state that there is little evidence to support this recommendation.
You are right . I have very bad reflux issues after my hpylori treatment. For me it triggers more with fried or spicy food . But not sure . I drink tea and coffee also . I didn’t try to eliminate them . Sometimes it’s confusing. So thinking to try apple cider vinegar before meals .
@@PrRout dear acid reflux is so confusing......you can figure out the food you should eat, just don't what ever triggers.....I'm having it too, already stopped sugary stuff, fried, beverages etc.....just avoid stress and see what happens.....
what fucking little evindence, you have gerd because u have too much acid and it imploded, now your healing and dont ever take trigger foods because ur gerd will be worsen! and u might not able to get healed, I witness some people who healed by gerd by not eating triggered food for a long time!
Hi I am having some issue like heartburn, headaches, neck pain, shoulder pain. This are the symptoms, mostly it starts with my left shoulder pain then my head start aching then i will constant urge to give massage to my neck and after 7-8pm I will vomit out Everyonthing i have eat. It happence 2-3 tines a week . And i prefer darkness when I don't feel well like i will turn off the lights cause the lights will give more pain. I am facing this from so lonh, so i prefer taking antacid and pain killers to treat= please let me know if someone is facing sane issue and what are they doing to cyre it😢
Consult doctor as it seem to be be heart problem i think so my father suffer heart attack and these were the symptoms i am not scaring you but better to consult doc hope it help you
I think you need more education before you give inaccurate information. You stated that medicines such as omeprazole have no serious side affects. A quick google search shows different
I’ve had it 4yr I’m 25 makes me suicidal this really does feels like no matter what I eat I get it if I don’t eat and when I’m hungry I get it but am I the only one what experiences the gurgles all the time I’m the throat like a frog sound? I also have had a dry throat/ cough for months now I’m going to die ain’t I
No you won’t die. I am equally new to this, at first I though I was going to die too. In hospital they took all kinda of tests. It’s the shortness of breath that are so uncomfortable and the anxiety. However I am slowly learning how to manage it. I have realized I need to walk after I eat, I am avoiding types of food, eat in small portions, I am doing intermediate fast to lose weight because I have learned obesity is a good source too, and most importantly prayers help. I invite God in and vision my better self. This condition attacks your mind and gives you fear and dark thoughts, but they aren’t true. Just read comment thread here you will realize you are not a lot. You can fight it 💙
@@snowy-19 same things mate nothings changed just scarier everyday best thing to do is get a upper endoscopy and see what reflux you have first then go from there
Thank you drohanon for your kindness towards humanity am very grateful that i was able to get rid of my bad breath problem with the help of your supplement i really appreciate your kindness….😷
Does anyone have laryngospasm when acid comes back up from the stomach? We are trying to figure out with the doctors the reason for my random laryngospasms. I visited allergist who says it's OK. Gastroenterologist thinks it's reflux but it's all in doubt. I take sodium and potassium as stomach protectors but not much changes. I start to feel discouraged. I take cortisone spray and tablets to prevent the larynx from closing during these attacks but I would like to understand the cause. Does this happen to anyone?
@@kemsonbugattikemi3300 My friend, I have discovered that I have a hiatal hernia in a state that can heal with some physiotherapy exercises without operating. In the meantime, the doctors gave me an anti-acid diet and prescribed gastroprotectors again. I no longer felt ill. I hope this helps someone. I did not believe that acid could bring such symptoms. I thought I was going to die.
thats true people dont know that and they tell u when u get up in the morning first thing drink some warm water on a empty stomach and then they also say dont drink cold water drink room temp water or lukewarm water warm water pushes everything down and breaks it up too cold water does nothing and that could be it too people drinking freezing cold water cold water stores fat and dont move anything and the whole world loves cold water i dont know why
I'm going through the same thing. My chest burns like crazy. It's 3 am and I can't sleep because my chest is burning. I'ma stop laying down right after I eat and avoid snacking at night. My gerd stopped for a few months but came back so I gotta figure out what I did again for it to come back
