SAMe (s-adenosyl-L-methionine). Several studies suggest SAMe can help reduce OA pain. In one study, SAMe relieved pain as well as NSAIDs. In another study of people with knee OA, SAMe worked as well as Celebrex in lessening pain and improving joint function, although it took longer to feel the benefits.
Heartburn is felt when stomach acid flows back up into the esophagus (food pipe or gullet), down which food moves from the mouth to the stomach. At least 15 million Americans experience heartburn - the symptom of acid reflux - every day, according to estimates from the American College of Gastroenterology.
The basic cause of heartburn is a lower esophageal sphincter, or LES, that doesn't tighten as it should. Two excesses often contribute to this problem: too much food in the stomach (overeating) or too much pressure on the stomach (frequently from obesity, pregnancy, or constipation).ome of the symptoms, however, are similar to those of a heart attack or heart disease. Heartburn is an irritation of the esophagus that is caused by stomach acid.
