Have you ever felt stomach acid travel up your throat? It’s the unpleasant burning feeling that most of us would have experienced. This condition is acid reflux. Almost 20% of all Australians suffer from reflux on a regular basis. Over almost two decades, we've received lots of feedback that ãlkalife naturally alkaline mineral water has helped relieve these symptoms. With the number of sufferers increasing due to our dietary style, it’s time to find out how alkaline water acts as a remedy to acid reflux.
Acid Reflux - What is it?
Acid reflux, sometimes referred to as heartburn or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a condition where the backflow of stomach acid enters into the esophagus, throat or mouth. It can cause complications if left untreated but it can easily be overcome with lifestyle changes and food habits even without medication.
Symptoms of Acid Reflux
A burning sensation from the lower chest going up towards the neck –“heartburn” as the doctors call it, would be the biggest symptom associated with acid reflux. A few other symptoms that you would experience when you have acid reflux include:
Does alkalife have the same effect?
alkalife contains over 200mg of bicarbonate per litre and is naturally alkaline so you would think so. Here's what our customers have had to say.
“I am nearly 38 weeks pregnant and have REAL bad reflux.
I drink some alkalife water and it goes away. My 2.5 year old now refuses any other water.”
Toni B. from Glenmore Park NSW.
“Dear Sir,
I come across Alkalife by pure accident, I am generally a fit person, but suffer from a hiatus hernia, misdiagnosed by doctors for many years. Started as a bad case reflux, because of the wrong diagnoses the condition became worst year by year.
I tried Alkalife, I thought water is water, yes we should drink it, at worst it would quench the thirst I had. Within 15 mins the discomfort eased off, I only had approx 250mls from the bottle. In the 3 weeks since coming across Alkalife I have forgot to take my medication on many occasions. Well if there is no discomfort I forget to take the medication. I advised my doctor of the reduction of the medication and he was pleased of the results. Thanks Alkalife for the relief in a bottle.
