Heart on fire! GERD is the cause, Chinese medicine adjusts the digestive system first

Do you often feel a burning sensation in your chest, like a fire burning? Does something seem to be rushing up in your throat? GERD, commonly known as heartburn, is a common experience for many people, but swallowing acid suppressants may be a temporary solution, but not a solution to this common disease that is prone to recurrence. Chinese medicine doctor Sheng-Pu Lee advocates that in order to get rid of GERD, it is useful to adjust the digestive system first.

When People can talk about GERD. Cardia is loose? Excessive stomach acid? This common digestive disorder, which affects almost one in ten people in Taiwan, is not something that can be fixed with acid reducers.

The cause of GERD is not excessive secretion of gastric acid, said Dr. Sheng-Pu Lee, a Chinese medicine doctor, the general public often reverse the cause and effect, thinking that after eating acids or exhaust gas will be more comfortable, but ignore the real cause of GERD. The stomach and intestines are like a one-way street, so is the blood circulation, a unidirectional cycle, in Chinese medicine, the reason for the GERD, for no other reason than the established excretory mechanism, liver and bile deficiency, intestinal relaxation, blood circulation is not strong. Stomach Qi can not be reached externally, and naturally accumulate and reflux.

The first possible cause of GERD is the lack of exercise, Dr. Sheng-Pu Lee explained, rarely exercising, poor circulation of Qi and blood, easily occurring GERD after a full meal, but this type is easy to solve, usually after the meal to walk around, the circulation began to move, the symptoms will improve a lot. Another type of patient with GERD basically has a problem with the entire digestive system. In other words, the liver does not function well and cannot secrete good enzymes, and there are not enough probiotics in the intestine to complete the normal absorption and digestion of food.

The liver, in the perspective of Chinese medicine, is the master of the gastrointestinal digestion and decomposition of the nutrient delivery function, Dr. Sheng-Pu Lee said, once the liver function is not enough, on the one hand, the nutrients can not be continuously transmitted to the surrounding areas, on the other hand, the waste can not be smoothly excreted out of the body, so it will also produce GERD and persistent stool problems. Food can not stay in the body as normal, it is smoothly digested and absorbed, the metabolism can not be smooth, stomach acid naturally overflow to the throat.

To treat the GERD, Chinese medicine advocates that the first important thing is to restore the normal absorption and metabolism of the liver, and the second step is to cultivate the beneficial bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract so that the nutrient absorption cycle from the time food is consumed to the time it is expelled from the body can be smooth and unimpeded.

Many people mistakenly regard nervousness in life as the cause of GERD, and become living on acids, or even deteriorate into ulcers, but in fact, it is the opposite. It is the lack of Qi in the human body and the weakness of the body that causes tension. On the contrary, Dr. Sheng-Pu Lee emphasized that as long as the digestive function is good and the physical function is good, people will not only not live a nervous life, but also the nutrition can be digested and absorbed by the human body very smoothly and used by the human body.
