Pain due to heartburn and indigestion often radiates between the shoulder blades, whereas oesophageal spasm (sometimes triggered by acid reflux) more commonly causes chest pain, and can be mistaken for cardiac chest pain.
Indigestion encompasses a vast array of symptoms in the upper digestive tract, including:
These symptoms are known collectively as dyspepsia, and this occurs in up to 10% of the adult population. At least half of these seek medical help, and dyspepsia accounts for 40% of referrals to a gastroenterologist.
Happy Gut Be Cool is a unique antacid that does not stall digestion of your food, unlike all other antacids. It has a patented blend of enzymes that still digest your food even at the changed pH an antacid produces. This means better nutrition, less discomfort, bloating and wind.
| Lactoferrin is a natural defensive protein present in the body. Lactoferrin Xtra has three to four times the iron binding capability of standard Lactoferrin. Studies indicate that it is particularly superior to normal Lactoferrin in improving bone density and the repair of intestinal epithelial cells.In her book on the H5N1 virus, ‘The Survivor’s Guide to Bird Flu‘, Professor Jayney Goddard notes that Lactoferrin is very useful against influenza. She describes how Lactoferrin increases mucosal immunity, which is vital for resisting viruses, and reduces inflammation, which is one of the ways viruses cause such a problem to the body. |
When reflux (heartburn) occurs, Refluxin ensures that the lower oesophagus is bathed in a mildly alkaline mucoprotective coating that forms a physical and neutralising barrier against irritating gastric acids.
