EVERYONE REFLUXES!

Reflux is a daily physiologic process for all of us. Reflux is the way that the stomach vents gas. Up to fifty reflux events every day may be considered normal. It is when the reflux of stomach contents into the throat or esophagus becomes excessive that tissue injury and pain may occur.

THERE ARE TWO TYPES OF REFLUX: GERD AND LPR

GERD(or gastroesophageal reflux disease) is when the stomach contents invade and irritate the esophagusabove the stomach.

COMMON MANIFESTATIONS OF GERD MAY INCLUDE:

  • Heartburn
  • Chest Pain
  • Problems Swallowing (also known as dysphagia)
  • Regurgitation
  • Cough

LPR(or laryngopharyngeal reflux) is when the stomach contents pass through a healthy and unharmed esophagus below and into the throat above (the area known as the pharynx and larynx),causing irritation and damage.

COMMON MANIFESTATIONS OF LPR MAY INCLUDE:

  • throat discomfort or pain
  • excessive throat clearing
  • excessive throat mucus
  • the sensation of a lump in the throat (also known as globus)
  • cough
  • hoarseness

Any of these afflictions can have profound negative effects on a person’s quality of life and wellbeing1

How Do You Treat Reflux?

The most widely used treatments for reflux are drugs known as proton pump inhibitors, or PPIs. (Commonly recognized under brand names such as Prevacid, Prilosec, or Nexium, to name just a few.) PPIs are very effective acid-reducing chemicals taken for GERD, LPR, erosive esophagitis, and peptic ulcer disease.

 Since hitting the market in the 1990s, PPIs have become among the most popular drugs in the world.2 Population studies indicate that PPIs are one of the most over-prescribed medications in the country.3,4 The belief that PPIs were safe helped to spread their use far and wide. Unfortunately, mounting evidence indicates that long term PPI use could be dangerous.3-5

Potential complications of chronic PPI use include: 6-10

  • decreased bone density, leading to fractures
  • infection
  • cardiovascular disease
  • renal (kidney) insufficiency
  • dementia

Despite their potential side effects, PPIs are highly effective drugs. They can heal an injured esophagus and help prevent the manifestations of reflux. Some people do need to be on these medications indefinitely. Recent evidence, however, suggests that these medications are over-prescribed and people should try and get off of them and transition to safer alternatives if possible.7

 Fortunately, there’s Reflux Gourmet to the rescue! Providing an all-natural, completely safe alternative for the management of reflux.

    When do I take Reflux Gourmet’s Rescue?

    The most common times for reflux are after meals and at night, so after meals and before bed is best, but it may be taken any time. If you consume our Rescue products around food, it should be taken last so that it can sit on top of the food.

    check_box

    Are there any side effects?

    There are no known side effects. There is nothing in our formula that is not in your cupboard right now. Review our ingredients label and rejoice! Our products are made entirely from ingredients considered safe in children and during pregnancy.

    Does its consistency change over time when refrigerated?

    Our Rescue products may feel “thicker” when refrigerated, but functionality remains intact, and they may be stored this way, if preferred.

    check_box

    Does its consistency remain stable when exposed to heat?

    If your products have been exposed to any extremes of temperature, simply let them return to room temperature before use (or refrigerated temp, if you are choosing to store our Rescue formula in this manner). Form and function will be intact.

    check_box

    Does its taste change when exposed to heat?

    Not once it returns to room temperature; however, as our products are 100% all-natural, there is an expected minor variability in taste, color, and consistency from batch to batch as a result of our non-synthetic ingredients.

    check_box

    Does its consistency change significantly over time?

    The consistency of our products remain stable over time. Do be cognizant of expiration dates, as this may effect the product, should it be past expiration.
