How to overcome reflux stone disease in just one month

My throat feels tight, stinging, and stuffy, and I feel like something is stuck, so I thought I had a problem with my bronchus, but it turns out that the issue is caused by acidic stomach acid refluxing into the esophagus. If gastric acid reflux is left untreated, it can lead to esophageal disease, so it is important to treat it early.

Sharing ways to overcome gastroesophageal reflux disease, which is difficult to diagnose and treat (taking prescribed medication properly, choosing foods carefully, not lying down immediately after eating, taking walks...)

 

First) Properly taking hospital-prescribed medication until the end according to the doctor's prescription

 

If reflux esophagitis is suspected, related medication is prescribed, but it is often said that reflux esophagitis does not easily improve just by taking medication.

You shouldn't stop taking the medication once you start; take it properly until the day the doctor instructed you to stop.

It is important to have a good consultation with the doctor about your symptoms and medication during the appointment.

I didn't notice any particular effect during the first week, but after continuing the medication, the reflux esophagitis improved within a month.

 

 

Second) Eat a variety of foods that are good for reflux esophagitis frequently.

I ate an appropriate amount of cabbage, broccoli, corn, bananas, potatoes, and carrots every day.

 

✔ Cabbage

Vitamin U inside cabbage is said to coat the stomach lining, making the stomach feel comfortable.

Vitamin U is sensitive to heat, so it's best to eat it raw or lightly blanched.

 

✔ Broccoli

Broccoli, well known as a longevity food, contains a lot of antioxidants.

Vitamin C, iron, calcium, and selenium are also abundant, which is beneficial for health and good for stomach health.

 

✔ Potato

It suppresses excessive gastric acid secretion and neutralizes stomach acid.

The mucopolysaccharides inside potatoes also have a protective effect on the stomach lining.

 

✔ Ma

When preparing maral, a slippery component is released, which is said to protect the stomach lining from gastric acid.

Ma contains abundant amylase enzymes that aid digestion.

 

✔ Banana

Bananas also contain slippery components.

These ingredients help protect the stomach lining.

Bananas help soothe the stomach by reducing irritation of the stomach lining.

Bananas are rich in soluble dietary fiber and pectin.

 

✔ Carrot

Gently cooking carrots helps protect the stomach lining.

Raw carrots can be difficult to digest and may irritate the stomach if you have a gastrointestinal condition.

 

✔ Radish

Raw radish contains abundant amylase, which helps digest carbohydrates and aids in the digestion of food in the stomach.

Additionally, radish suppresses stomach acid secretion and also prevents heartburn.

 

 

3) Avoid foods that are not good for reflux esophagitis

 

Foods that easily cause acid reflux are not good for gastroesophageal reflux disease, so it is best to avoid them.

Avoid foods high in fat

Avoid teas with high caffeine content

Foods high in chocolate

Foods containing a lot of flour or bread, etc.

Spicy, salty, and刺激ful foods

❌ Dried squid jerky and other hard foods

❌ Onion and tomato

❌ Carbonated drinks

❌ Pork and other meats

 

The above food stimulates the secretion of stomach acid, and when there is an excess of stomach acid, it can easily reflux into the esophagus, worsening reflux esophagitis.

 

Fats and proteins take a long time to digest.

The amount of time food stays in the stomach increases accordingly.

 

 

In cases of severe gastroesophageal reflux disease

It is best to consume protein foods that are easily digestible, such as soft-boiled eggs, tofu, and fermented soybeans.

 

 

Fourth) Take a light walk after meals

Lying down immediately after eating makes it easier for stomach acid to reflux.

It is good to take a light walk after eating to aid digestion.

Walking lightly for about 20 minutes after eating soft, easily digestible foods can aid digestion and help prevent acid reflux to some extent.

 

I overcame acid reflux in just one month.

The doctor said that gastroesophageal reflux disease doesn't heal easily even with medication, but I was told that I fall into the category of cases that recover easily.

I took my hospital-prescribed medication properly, ate foods that are easy to digest, and made sure to include stomach-friendly foods in every meal.

After eating, sitting on the sofa and watching TV to relax is the best, but I think developing the habit of getting up and taking a light walk for even 20 minutes has been very helpful.
