Coffee, Alcohol, and the Acid Reflux Connection: Do these drinks cause Heartburn?

Posted: Jul 02, 2009 | Views: 718 | Bookmark and Share

Recent evidence suggests that drinking coffee and alcohol probably does not cause acid reflux.  In other words, if you don't already have acid reflux or heartburn, coffee and alcohol will not induce these conditions.

However -- as many people who suffer from heartburn know -- coffee and alcohol can have an adverse effect on their digestive system.

Just one cup of coffee or glass of wine can be the catalyst for hours of acid reflux and heartburn.  Fortunately, there is a way to safely treat these conditions before they happen, so that coffee and alcohol can be consumed without discomfort or harm from reflux.  Prelief is an absolutely safe (the ingredients have long been considered safe by the FDA) product that can be taken just before consuming these drinks, rendering these drinks acid-free. Check out the link below for more info.

If you're suffering from bouts of acid reflux and heartburn because of coffee and alcohol, or you don't want to avoid these drinks, try Prelief.  It's a  harmless acid reducer that's affordable -- especially when compared to antacids and other remedies, which many people avoid for health reasons.

The market is full of remedies for acid reflux.  Most are effective at relieving the burning.  Some -- known as proton pump inhibitors (e.g., Prilosec) -- completely shut down the acid pumps in the stomach.  Proton-pump inhibitors are often expensive, and long-term effects of using them is unknown.

The most gentle and effective way to stop food-induced acid reflux is to either stop consuming coffee and other trigger foods, or find a way to reduce the acid in these foods.  Prelief does this, rendering your coffee and alcohol drinks safe again.
