Why I Rarely Eat Wheat Products (Gluten and Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease)

According to the latest statistics, the number of patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in our country has reached 100 million, with a prevalence rate of approximately 7% to 10%. This rate is higher in Western countries, where it is around 20%. Whether or not you have been diagnosed with this condition by a doctor, if you have ever experienced the sensations of acid reflux and heartburn, you know how uncomfortable it can be. The impact on our bodies extends beyond the damage to the esophagus caused by inflammation; it can also lead to persistent coughs and asthma, as well as inflammation of the throat and dental issues such as cavities.
The causes of gastroesophageal reflux disease, based on current medical explanations, are primarily: 1) excessive pressure in the stomach or abdomen that exceeds the control limits of the valve above the stomach; 2) a decrease in the esophagus's ability to resist acid and digestion; and 3) excessive production of stomach acid.
