Managing Acid Reflux

Heartburn and other symptoms of acid reflux affect millions of Americans-according to the National College of Gastroenterology, more than 60 million people experience heartburn at least once a month and 15 million experience it daily. In addition, Americans spend billions of dollars each year on antacids and other medications to combat acid reflux symptoms. Overuse of conventional antacids can lead to other health complications. In this completely revised and updated edition of her popular booklet, Kate Gilbert Udall describes the dietary and lifestyle changes and nutritional supplements that can help you manage or avoid this painful condition.
