Reflux / heartburn
This is a troublesome condition caused by dysfunction of the esophageal valve and the reflux of hydrochloric acid into the esophagus and throat, as well as a disturbance of the acid-base balance in the stomach.
Reflux Therapy – Diet and Diagnostics to Improve Stomach Function
The basis of therapy in our clinic is a properly designed anti-reflux diet, the aim of which is to: improve the motor function of the esophageal-gastric valve, restore the correct pH in the stomach, minimize the time it takes to digest products in the stomach, properly arrange the proportions of carbohydrates (among others, they intensify reflux), establish proper hydration.
The therapy consists of performing a BETA test and/or food detective.
