I have many patients who complain of heartburn and find that most will respond to one of four treatments: avoidance of food intolerances, improvement of digestion (chewing, stomach secretions, and/or pancreatic secretions), H. pylori treatment, or an exercise to resolve hiatal hernia syndrome. It is important to keep stomach acid from leaking into the esophagus but it is also important to have adequate stomach acid to digest your food. Please schedule an appointment to assess options that may be right for you. In the meantime, try these options!
