There are also a host of prescription acid
reflux medications, as well as surgical treatment and endoscopic
procedures to repair damaged tissues or structural
abnormalities. While I’m sure there are cases where surgery or
consistent medication would be the best course of action, I find
it hard to believe that there is not another underlying cause of
the heartburn epidemic.
Did people simply not suffer from heartburn
as much in the past, or perhaps not as severely? It seems like
if heartburn was as inherent to the human experience as every
other television commercial portrays things to be, we would have
read about it in historical literature. Maybe people haven’t
always suffered from heartburn in the large numbers we see
today.
Perhaps many chronic heartburn cases are
related more closely to the poor quality of food that many of us
eat and not that heartburn is just another condition of being
human. But it’s more difficult to realize simple cause and
effect relationships when the whole picture is clouded with a
third element: treatment of symptoms.
When we treat symptoms of dis-ease with
medications of any kind, we’re not allowing our bodies to heal
and assist us in finding what it is that our body requires to
heal, whether it be sleep, water or particular nutrients, the
body will lead us to what it is that will set things right
again. Symptoms are the body’s way of alerting us to an
imbalance, and treating the symptoms only impede the body’s
natural healing duties. Skip the Zantac and eat some carrots or
an apple instead.
