Today we are going to blow your mind with some facts regarding the misunderstanding of heartburn and GERD and consequently the mismanagement of it that occurs within the medical community

According to the National Institute of Diabetes and Kidney Digestive Diseases, sixty million people experience heartburn at least once a month and twenty five million experience symptoms daily. Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD), is a more serious form of acid reflux, and is now statistically the most common digestive disorder in the US. Heartburn and GERD can have serious and even life-threatening complications if they are not treated appropriately. Unfortunately, there is a HUGE misunderstanding about what causes acid reflux, heartburn, and GERD, and that has lead to completely inadequate methods of dealing with it.
