What is Heartburn and What Are It's Symptoms?

Heartburn is a painful burning sensation in the esophagus, just below the breastbone. The pain often rises in the chest and may radiate to the neck or throat.

Heartburn does not indicate heart malfunction but results from nervous tension or overindulgence in food or drink. It is caused by the failure to close the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) at the top of the stomach. This allows stomach contents, now mixed with gastric acid, to return into the esophagus. This return is also known as acid reflux, and may progress to gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) if it occurs frequently.

Common Heartburn and Indigestion Triggers and Causes:

~ Alcohol
~ Coffee, tea, cola, and other caffeinated and carbonated beverages
~ Chocolate
~ Citrus fruits and juices
~ Tomatoes and tomato sauces (such as pizza and pasta sauce)
~ Spicy foods and fatty foods (including full-fat dairy products)
~ Peppermint and spearmint
~ Physical activity immediately following ingestion of food may exaggerate heartburn symptoms.

All Natural Ways to find Heartburn Relief as well as relief from Reflux and Acid Indigestion:

Prevention is by far the best way to control heartburn, and your best prevention against heartburn is a wholesome low fat diet. Fatty foods take longer to digest and can lead to indigestion. Another preventative measure is to refrain from overeating. Try having smaller meals at regular intervals.

Controling where and when you eat is another preventative measure. Eating within two hours of laying down can trigger heartburn and indigestion. Even sitting in a reclinging position can trigger it. Also refrain from excessive physical activity directly after eating.
