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.
Heartburn is actually a symptom of GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease), and is caused by acid refluxing back into the esophagus. Risk factors include those that increase the production of acid in the stomach, as well as structural problems that allow acid reflux into the esophagus. Some common foods that we eat and drink, stimulate increased stomach acid secretion setting the stage for heartburn.
