The Digestive System First of all let’s clarify one point about heartburn, acid reflux or Gerd. They are not diseases any more than you would consider a headache to be a disease! Unless of course we are talking about "dis-ease" or a feeling of being "ill-at-ease!".
The truth of the matter is they are only temporary conditions that you can easily change, once you understand how your digestive system works.
When you put food in your mouth and start to chew, the chewing stimulates the salivary glands to produce saliva. The saliva then mixes with the food and helps to extract the vitimans and minerals which you need to replenish your body
Saliva not only makes it easier to swallow your food, but the saliva also helps neultralize the acid in your esophagus by up to 50%. Once the food enters your esophagus it is forced down toward your stomach by "peristalsis", which is a wavy squeezing motion, intended to move the food along! It is important to note: that when "the food is being forced down toward your stomach, the esophagus remains tight around the food as the "peristalsis" squeezes and pushes the food down your food tube" You probably didn’t know this but when you swallow, if there are little bits of food that have not been completely chewed, they will actually scratch and damage the delicate cells of the esophgaus. This damage is usually in the form of tiny cuts or lesions and when acidic beverages like tomato or orange juice come in contact with this damage you will experience pain or a burning sensation in the chest area. Alcohol and spicy foods are also a no-no for many sufferers. When your acidic stomach gases reflux into your esophagus and come in contact with these sores or lesions you will also experience a pain or burning sensation, because the stomach gases are also acidic. It’s much like spilling acidic vinegar on a cut…it will cause you pain! Once the food reaches the end of your esophagus it is forced through the Lower Esophageal Sphincter (LES) and then into your stomach. Improperly chewed-up food can actually scratch and damage the LES, as it is being squeezed through the valve. This can cause the LES to become swollen, and once it is swollen it will fail to close properly. If your valve is not closing properly, and tightly sealed, the acidic stomach gases can seep past the valve and reflux into your esophagus.
The dictionary defines reflux as a "backward flow" which would mean that; belching or vomiting would be considered reflux. Which they are! But in order to understand what causes reflux in the first place, we have to have a look at the stomach.
Your stomach is a kidney shaped organ that lies between the bottom end of your esophagus and your duodenum. The contents of the stomach include gastric juices and hydrochloric acid which are kept contained in your stomach, by the tightly closed LES valve.The valve only opens to allow food to enter your stomach, unless you vomit. And then the LES valve opens…and your "peristalsis" is reversed, sending the liquid contents of the stomach up your esophagus and out your mouth. Yuck!…Tastes terrible when it happens, doesn’t it? Above the liquid acidic contents in your stomach lie the stomach gases, which are also very acidic. Did you know that the contents of your stomach are under pressure and when your stomach pressure is increased for whatever reason, the increase in pressure will override your LES valve, forcing it open, and allowing your acidic stomach gases to reflux into your esophagus. The majority of time when you burp it is your stomach gases not the actual liquid contents, but you already know that…because you’ve been burping since you’ve been a baby When stomach gases are refluxing into your esophagus they are also building up pressure causing the esophagus to expand and that’s why you feel chest pressure.Sometimes you may feel a small lump in your throat near your Adam’s Apple. This is called "Globus Sensation" and is usually relieved once we burp and expel the gases. Try drinking a glass of water… Read more…
