Acid Reflux Causes

​As with all other digestive disorders the root causes of Acid Reflux consist of one or more insulting habits and influences over time in seven key areas: mindfulness (or the lack of)  hydration-dehydration, micronutrient deficiencies, macronutrient imbalances, intestinal dysbiosis, oxidative stress and redox molecules deficiencies. Of all the insulting habits that cause Acid Reflux, the biggest offenders are these: Not chewing your food thoroughly; eating too fast; eating too much, eating when stressed-out, angry or worried; and eating late at night. (or becoming horizontal within three hours of eating) It takes at least 2-3 hours for the food you just ate to digest in your stomach and empty out of the stomach. Acid Reflux occurs when one or more insults happens while your food is still digesting in your stomach. So the most simple and most obvious causes of Acid Reflux are the insulting habits I just listed above. These are easily corrected if you pay attention to what and when and how you are eating. The other major cause of Acid Reflux is chronic unintentional dehydration. This results in the production of weaker than normal stomach acid which makes it difficult or impossible for the stomach to do its job correctly.

Conclusion

Like all other digestive disorders, Acid Reflux is completely correctable and easily prevented from future occurrences. If and only if you eliminate the root causes and if and only if you become more proactive in your own self-care.
