Acid Reflux

Acid reflux, also known as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), occurs when stomach acid flows back into the esophagus, causing irritation and discomfort.

Causes:

•Weakening of the lower esophageal sphincter (LES)

•Eating spicy, oily, or acidic foods

•Overeating or lying down immediately after meals

•Obesity or pregnancy

•Smoking and excessive alcohol consumption

•Stress and poor digestion

Symptoms:

•Burning sensation in the chest (heartburn)

•Sour or bitter taste in the mouth

•Regurgitation of food or acid

•Difficulty swallowing
