heart burn Do you ever experience heart burn? Heart burn is a digestive problem that happens when your stomach acid reaches the esophagus.  This can cause major irritation and inflammation.
 You've just enjoyed a big meal and are relaxing in front of the TV when it happens. A burning sensation begins to build in the upper abdomen, behind the breastbone, and makes your chest feel like it's on fire.The burning may also feel like chest pain that  may travel from your diaphragm all the way to your throat, tasting sour  and having the sensation of food re-entering your mouth. This can cause discomfort and need immediate attention. 
 As a holistic health practitioner I look at the root cause to why this is happening to you.  Its very important to look at your daily diet and what you consume as well heart burnas taking the proper supplementation to help replenish the hydrochloric acid in your stomach that may be lacking.  Here are some reasons you might be experiencing heart burn:

  • Candy
  • Flour tortillas
  • Greasy fatty foods
  • Gluten
  • Wheat
  • Sodas
  • Sugary drinks (monster, Redbull, lemonade)
  • Pizza
  • Yogurt (frozen and Yoplait types)
  • Dairy
  • Sugar
  • Pasta
  • Frozen foods

 If this list of foods represents your daily diet intake, I suggest you start eliminating them and see if your heartburn improves. Another tip is to not drink while eating your meal.  Wait until you have finished.  Do not take a bite of food and then drink liquids while food is in your mouth. If eliminating these foods do not help after about a week or so contact Kristi Acuna and she will guide you towards good health and helping you to relieve your heartburn. 

You shouldn’t suffer or feel anxious about going out with friends.  Get the help you need so you can enjoy a meal out with friends instead of feeling anxious about what to eat.
