The purpose of lifestyle change is to reduce acid reflux and reduce the contact time between reflux and esophageal mucosa. Obese people will increase abdominal pressure and promote reflux, eat less and eat more meals, and should not eat within 4 hours before going to bed. Avoid various actions and postures that increase abdominal pressure for a long time in life. Quit smoking, alcohol, and eat chocolate and coffee. .

　　Some diseases in life are all It is inevitable that once a sickness occurs, it will have a great impact on the body. Gastrointestinal disease is a relatively common disease in life, this disease will cause great harm to the normal body, so it needs to be adjusted and treated in life. Many people want to know how to prevent gastroesophageal reflux disease?
　　Gastroesophageal reflux is a clinical gastroesophageal reflux disease, which is a disease of esophageal mucosa damage caused by excessive contact of gastric juice in the gastroesophageal cavity. The occurrence of gastroesophageal reflux and its complications are multifactorial. Among them, the anti-reflux mechanism of the esophagus itself has defects, such as dysfunction of the lower esophageal sphincter, abnormal movement of the esophagus, and dysfunction of various mechanical factors outside the esophagus.
　　Heartburn refers to the burning sensation behind the breastbone and under the xiphoid process, which usually occurs one hour after a meal. This can easily happen when you lie on your back, bend over, or increase abdominal pressure. The contents of the stomach returning to the mouth are often acidic, which is called acid reflux. Gastric acid reflux is often accompanied by heartburn, which is the most common symptom of the disease.
　　When severe esophagitis or esophageal ulcers occur, swallowing pain may occur, which is caused by gastric acid reflux stimulating the sensory nerve endings under the esophagus. Reflux can also stimulate mechanoreceptors to cause esophageal spasmodic pain, which can be severe tingling, radiating to the back, waist, shoulders, and neck, similar to angina. Due to esophageal spasm or dysfunction, some patients will have difficulty swallowing. When esophageal stenosis occurs, dysphagia will continue to increase.
　　In terms of diet, obese people will increase abdominal pressure and promote reflux, so avoid eating high-fat foods that promote reflux to lose weight. Eat less and eat more meals. It is not advisable to eat before going to bed to minimize stomach contents and stomach pressure at night. If necessary, raise the head of the bed by 10 cm. This is very important for the reflux when lying down at night, using gravity to remove harmful substances in the esophagus.
　　Avoid various actions and postures that increase abdominal pressure for a long time in life, including wearing tights and tightening belts to help prevent reflux. Quitting smoking, quitting alcohol, eating less chocolate and coffee, etc., because smoking reduces saliva production is also related to heartburn; drinking, eating chocolate and coffee will reduce the lower esophageal sphincter tension.
