Healthy Lifestyle Choices Can Reduce Heartburn In Women

  • 3 years ago
Healthy choices can help women significantly reduce their risk of developing acid reflux or heartburn.
The condition affects nearly 30% of the U.S. population, research suggests.
Gastroesophageal reflux disease, or GERD, occurs when stomach acid frequently flows back into the esophagus.
Women who make choices that include keeping off excess body weight can reduce their risk of heartburn.
According to UPI, women who don't smoke and who drink less coffee can also lower their risk of acid reflux.
Experts say that eating a healthy diet and exercising regularly can further help lower their risk for acid reflux symptoms.
