Heartburn is one of the most common digestive disorders in the United States.
Left untreated, acid reflux can cause irritation and damage to the oesophagus, lungs, vocal cords and throat as well as cause pneumonia, ulcers, and breathing problems (1).
The condition can quickly become unmanageable as sufferers have trouble going about their daily lives because of chest pain experienced after meals and throughout the night.
It’s estimated that 15 million Americans currently rely on prescription heartburn medication to manage their symptoms.
Proton pump inhibitors, the main medication prescribed for the condition, are currently the most widely prescribed drugs in the world (2).
