New Outpatient Treatment for Heartburn-Related Problem Stops Esophageal Cancer Before It Starts
Date:7/16/2009

oenterological Association, more than 60 million Americans experience heartburn at least once each month. "Blame it on our lifestyles," Parsons said. "It includes improper diets, eating on the run, and a variety of stress-related conditions."

Parsons recommends that people who suffer from heartburn more than twice a week, or who have trouble falling asleep because of it, have a gastroenterologist examine them. "You could have gastroesophageal reflux disease, or GERD, which is treatable," he said. "If you ignore it, the constant backing up of stomach acid can burn the lining of your esophagus, leading to Barrett's, which may turn into cancer."
