Your on the right track. Hearburn is actually your stomach swelling up from gas. It presses against the heart. This condition is a result of not having enough hydrocloric acid in the stomach to digest the food. This is just the beginning of more problems. Eating too much food, in one meal, makes it hard for the stomach to digest it. Another problem related to this is the bodies inability to assimulate protein properly. When protein is broken down into amino acids, the body uses these amino acids to make digestive fluids like the hyrochloric acid in the stomach. It’s a vicious circle. No hydrochloric acid in the stomach, not amino acids, not production of hydrochloric acid in the stomach. You can buy supplements that boost the production of hydrochloric acid in the stomach. They come in capsule or pill form. Also check the intestines and colon for good health. When the stomach doesn’t work well the rest of the tube has problems too.
