Acid reflux problem
Hello sir, i got diagnosed with gastritis and i got frequent acid refluxs. So does acid reflux affect your heart health in longer run??
Acid reflux itself does not increase the risk of heart disease.
Shared symptoms between GERD and heart issues often lead to misdiagnosis due to similar chest pain presentation
Lifestyle Changes:
Eat smaller, frequent meals
Avoid lying down for 3 hours after eating
Maintain healthy weight
Choose non-spicy, low-fat foods
If you experience chest pain, proper medical evaluation is essential to differentiate between GERD and cardiac issues.
