Alternative medicine - Coffee, Not for Heartburn Acid Reflux



Coffee is not just a favorite American beverage but it is one of the most popular drinks in the world. Everywhere in the world you can see a coffee cafe or even the famous coffee chain - Starbucks.

Research has proven that coffee which is a stimulant drink made from roasted coffee beans can bring benefits to our health. It is believed to be able to help to reduce the risk of Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and heart diseases, diabetes mellitus type 2, liver cirrhosis, and gout.

Unfortunately, it does not help in reducing acid reflux heartburn symptoms. In fact, caffeine can increase the production of stomach acid and this can worsen the symptoms.

So for people who suffer from acid reflux heartburn symptoms, it is best to avoid drinking coffee or any beverage that contains caffeine.
