in many cases these problems are actually caused by having too little stomach acid not too much and those ant acids you've been taking they might actually be making your condition worse in the long run Stay With Me Because by the end of this video I'm going to share an amazing natural drink recipe that's been transforming lives this recipe comes from one of Brazil's most respected nutrition experts and I'll EXP explain exactly why each ingredient works so well plus I'll reveal some game-changing supplements that most doctors aren't talking about but that research shows can make a
huge difference let's start by understanding what's really happening when you have gastritis think of your stomach like a fortress with thick walls these walls are made of special cells that produce a protective mucus layer when you have gastritis these walls become inflamed and weakened it's not just a minor irritation it's your body telling you that something's seriously wrong with this protective system this condition often develops slowly over years and it can be triggered by various factors maybe you've been taking Aspirin regularly for headaches or you've been under intense stress or perhaps you've been relying on
Ant acids to manage your symptoms the main sign is that gnawing burning pain in your upper abdomen right below your ribs you might feel it especially after eating or when you're stressed here's something that might surprise you did you know that persistent coughing can actually be a sign of reflux a lot of people are unsure why they're dealing with a cough that just won't go away especially one that gets worse at night what's happening is that when stomach contents travel up into your esophagus they can irritate your throat and trigger a cough reflex it's like
