Graphene (/ËÉ¡rÃ¦f.iËn/) is an allotrope of carbon in the form of a two-dimensional, atomic-scale, hexagonal lattice in which one atom forms each vertex. It is the basic structural element of other allotropes, including graphite, charcoal, carbon nanotubes and fullerenes.
Proton pump inhibitors are a type of acid reducer that helps to decrease levels of acid in your stomach. They work by causing your body to make less stomach acid. This helps to treat heartburn and acid reflux problems. Another type of acid reducer, in addition to a proton pump inhibitor, is an H2 blocker.
How Do Proton Pump Inhibitors Work? Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) block the enzyme in the wall of the stomach that produces acid, lowering the amount of acid in the environment. Acid is the culprit behind heartburn, and tamping down production of stomach acid can help ease the discomfort of this bothersome symptom.
