A lot of people and physicians think it is ok to consume drugs for stomach issues, acid reflux, or gastroesophageal disease. Drugs and drugstore remedies for these diseases should be used sparingly and should be watched closely by the doctor. Drugs should be used only for a given time so that a patient can heal any tissue damage caused by stomach acid refluxing into the esophagus. Even so, natural remedies can also heal tissue damage in the esophagus and provide a cure.
Most drugs are used to change or reduce stomach acid strength or to stop the stomach lining from creating more acid. The stomach automatically releases more acid as it strength is diminished so that it can digest food. When drugs are used to stop stomach acid, foods cannot be digested properly.
The reduction of stomach acid can cause a major detrimental impact in your overall health. Stomach acid needs to be around 1.2 to 2.5 pH to do the hundreds of reactions that occur there. When these reactions do not happen, a cascade of unhealthy conditions begins. You won't see the detrimental health effect in using drugs short term but you will in long term use.
Here is one nutritional deficiency, anemia, that occurs when your stomach acid is neutralized by over the counter drugstore products or by the numerous popular pharmaceutical drugs, anemia.
Iron is the center of the hemoglobin, red blood cell, and molecule. This molecule delivers oxygen to all your cells as it travels through your cardiovascular system. The lack of iron in your body results in the lack of oxygen for your body and this condition is called anemia. When you lack iron, your body becomes weak and tired. Muscles lose strength and you can become disoriented. Your cells do not get the oxygen they need so they cannot generate the energy you need to run your body.
In clinical tests, people with low stomach acid were found to be anemic. This is how you become anemic. In order for iron to be absorbed into your blood it needs to be soluble and not attached to another nutrient or fiber.
Two types of iron are heme iron and non-heme iron. Heme iron comes from meat. When your stomach acid is low, meat heme iron will remain as a liquid and soluble and not precipate, so there is no problem with meat heme iron and low stomach acid. The only problem is eating a lot of meat is that it is not an ideal diet for good health.
However, with non-iron coming from grains, vegetables, and fortified foods, stomach pH is important. When stomach acid is diminished, like when drugs and other drugstore products are used iron from produce and grains is also diminished. Stomach acid must separate the iron from produce and grain fibers and dissolve it so it becomes more absorbable.
If you have a low iron count, are anemic, or suffer from feeling tired and in addition suffer from acid reflux or heartburn, stay away from acid reflux drugs and drugstore products. Use natural remedies to solve your heartburn symptoms.
If you are using drugs to deal with your acid reflux or heartburn, move toward using natural remedies. These remedies will balance your stomach acid and create and digest the minerals and vitamins that you need for good health. Drugs will create an imbalance in your stomach acid and cause side effect that you will have to deal with as you use them.
