Acid Reflux, or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), occurs when stomach acid flows back into the oesophagus, causing symptoms like heartburn and regurgitation. It is often triggered by certain foods, medications, obesity, stress, or a hiatal hernia. Managing acid reflux involves lifestyle changes such as eating smaller meals, avoiding trigger foods, and elevating the head during sleep, along with medications like antacids, H2 blockers, or proton pump inhibitors. Knowing your gut type, taking probiotics and making dietary changes are steps you can take to maintain a healthy gut bacteria balance.
