Survey Reveals Heartburn Sufferers Experience More Heartburn During the Holidays
Date:11/13/2007

> to drink, choose cocktails that are easier on the tummy, such as a wine

spritzer (white wine and club soda).

The goal of Heartburn Awareness Month is to screen, educate and treat heartburn sufferers. The NHBA encourages all heartburn sufferers to proactively visit their healthcare providers during the month of November, to receive information about heartburn so they can eliminate symptoms when they are more likely to indulge in holiday meals and spirits. Sufferers can visit the Heartburn Awareness Month Web site at http://www.heartburnmonth.org to learn about lifestyle changes and order free educational brochures, available in English and Spanish.

"Many people don't know that the foods and drinks they enjoy around the holidays may contribute to heartburn symptoms," says Jan Engle, Pharm.D. at the University of Chicago at Illinois and NHBA Vice Chair. "Heartburn Awareness Month in November raises awareness about these triggers so that sufferers can find the appropriate treatment options and enjoy their holidays."

Additional Survey Results

-- 94% of adults surveyed believed that over-eating is the cause of

holiday heartburn; 18% of those surveyed blamed eating at abnormal

hours and 16% believe stress is the main factor or holiday heartburn

-- 55% of survey respondents believe that eating highly acidic foods

during the holidays is the reason they suffer from heartburn, followed

by eating fatty meats (20%) and drinking alcohol (11%)
