Q: Does Heartburn only affects people with bad lifestyles and poor diets?
A: No. Heartburn is caused by a physical problem and can affect just about anyone.
You can avoid certain triggers, but you won’t necessarily be able to avoid heartburn.
Q: Would a glass of milk will relieve my heartburn symptoms?
A: The Calcium in milk isn’t the same as the calcium carbonate in TUMS. At first, drinking a glass of milk may feel good, but it may really be making things worse. The calcium, protein, and fat in milk may actually cause your stomach to produce more stomach acid – triggering further heartburn symptoms.
If you suffer heartburn symptoms at night, sleeping with your head slightly raised may help. When your head and chest are elevated higher than your stomach, it can help reduce the risk of stomach acid flowing up into your esophagus.
And, don’t go to bed on a full stomach. It’s important to let your food digest 2-3 hours before going to bed or lying down.
