7 Facts About Acid Reflux
Acid reflux is a very common condition which often results in a burning sensation in the chest called “heartburn”.
Acid reflux occurs when the lower esophageal sphincter (LES), which is a ring of muscles between the esophagus and the stomach, allows stomach acids to back up into the esophagus. These strong acids can irritate the lining of the esophagus and cause pain.
If you have this at least twice a week, then you might have Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD).
Approximately 20 to 30% of the population in Western countries has GERD. Although the numbers are somewhat lower in Asian countries, GERD is rapidly becoming more and more common.
