If you’ve felt the symptoms, the burning sensation, a bitter taste in your mouth, constant coughing, sore throat and overall a discomfort then you’ve felt heartburn.
Even thought the word “heart” is in heartburn, the condition is actually not related to your heart at all. Stomach acids cause an irritation in your esophagus which is called heartburn. The symptoms however are similar to those of heart disease and heart attacks.
Some people have heartburn now and then but if you’ve been experiencing daily heartburn symptoms then you may have chronic heartburn or GERD (gastro esophageal reflux disease).
We’ve created this site to bring you up-to-date information on the causes of heartburn, heartburn remedies and heartburn relief tips. Please contact us if you have any suggestions or questions.
