Why does this happen to me??

Question

Tody i ate normally and I was fine until supper and when i layed down I like barfed(spit) up acid and food sooo many times and it came up like vomit. I have acid refluex but this should not be happeining.. is my body rejecting my food because it got soo used to not eating??

Answer 1

no, you layed down too soon after eating. Try eating smaller meals more often and remain sitting upright after eating for at least two hours. Don't eat for at least four hours before you go to bed. Also, try sleeping up on two or three pillows so you have gravity helping you to keep your stomach contents where they belong.

Answer 2

you'll need to start looking aat your ingredients and nutrritional facts on your foods you eat. Also, sincce you have acid reflux, you'll need to support yourself with a lot of pillows or buy a remote controlled bed that can tilt the head side so you sleep at a slant. It'ss not that uncomfortable, my father does this for his acid reflux. If your problem is chronic, you need to see a doctor. Nexium is a common pill prescribed for acid reflux, so ask your doctor some questions. And the other lady is right, don't lay down right after you eat. There is something wrong with the valve in your stomach/esophagus. Stay away from foods like pizza, orange juice, sour candy, and acidic things. About the eating thing. You need to drink water on a daily basis and eat on a regular basis, because if you have this problem and dont eat right, it will cause you worse condition and discomfort.

Hope you get better

I think it is your reflux,my husband has that too really badly.I think you should see your Dr only a Dr can tell you what needs to be done.Im wondering if you mean that you dont normally eat right too?You should eat a heathy diet and drink lots of water and of course watch the spicy foods too.Good luck-Hope you get help!:)

Answer 4

This happens to my sister. When it does, she goes on a liquid diet for about three days--Slim Fast, yogurt, etc.--and it seems to help. We don't know why. Do you take a prescription for it? Acidophilus can help, or that new Activia yogurt. If you don't get it calmed down it can erode the lining of your esophagus, which can be really bad and lead to cancer.

Hi Jenny

Here is a long term action plan and #6 has the quick fix.

Causes of Heartburn
The most common causes of heartburn are overeating, and eating meals that are predominantly acid-forming and abundant in unhealthy fats, spices, and commercially processed foods. Heartburn can also be caused by low levels of hydrochloric acid (HCl), deficiencies in the body’s production of enzymes, poor adrenal and/or spleen function, and/or diminished liver function due to toxicity. Hiatal hernia, stress, or smoking, can cause heartburn, as well.

In addition, food allergies lead to poor digestion which can also contribute to heartburn, as can combining too many different types of foods at the same meal. Heartburn can be brought on by drinking excess fluids during mealtime, eating too fast, or eating in a stressed environment. Heartburn can also be connected to constipation, similar to a backed up septic system. In this case, the body can have a difficult time digesting and processing the food coming in, if the previous meal is not going down and being eliminated properly.




Quick Action Plan for Preventing and Treating Heartburn (Acid Reflux of GERD)
.

1. Conventional physicians recommend over-the-counter antacid medications for heartburn. Although these drugs can provide temporary relief, long-term use may be harmful, as they reduce the amount of stomach acids necessary for proper digestion and assimilation of food.

2. Screen for food allergies, which contribute to poor digestion, thus leading to heartburn. Avoid the following: foods you are allergic to, eating too many different types of foods at the same meal, drinking excess fluids during the meal, wolfing down food, or eating under stress.

3. Avoid overeating, do not eat acid forming foods, commercially-processed foods, overly spicy foods, refined sugars and carbohydrates, hydrogenated fats or oils, coffee, chocolate, sodas, excess alcohol, orange and grapefruit juice, tomato products, pasteurized milk or dairy products, and foods containing peppermint and spearmint.

4. Eat an organic whole foods diet, full of organic fresh green vegetables and green vegetable juices, especially freshly-made cucumber juice, which can provide instant relief. Free-range organic meats and poultry, and wild-caught fish are recommended. Drink plenty of pure, filtered water throughout the day.

5. Avoid overeating and eating meals late in the evening, and allow at least three hours between meals, unless blood sugar problems are an issue.

6. For quick relief from heartburn symptoms, eat apples, raw cucumbers (peeled), brown rice, and walnuts. Try sipping a glass of pure, filtered water with a couple of teaspoons of raw, organic apple cider vinegar, or baking soda, which can quickly neutralize heartburn attacks.

7. Useful herbs for heartburn include agrimony, aloe vera, angelica, fennel, garlic, gentian, goldenseal, licorice root, marshmallow root, parsley, and slippery elm. The tea, or essential oil of cardamom, relieves symptoms for many.

8. Homeopathy remedies that help are Arsenicum album, Nux vomica, and Sulfur.

9. If you smoke, stop, and begin an exercise program as soon as possible.

10. Take digestive enzymes with every meal, along with calcium carbonate, 600 mg in liquid or chewable form every two to three hours until symptoms subside. Take Probiotics such as acidophilus and Bifidobacteria according to directions.

11. Stress reduction techniques such as biofeedback, hypnotherapy, and relaxation exercises, along with meditation, can be highly effective.

12. Do a colon cleanse to help remove excess waste and toxins in the blood. This will help filter in new blood cells to heal the issue.



Best of health to you
