The stomach naturally produces hydrochloric acid to digest the food we eat. But severe heartburn occurs when the amount of this acid increases and it rises from the stomach to the esophagus. Scientifically, this is called GERD (Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease). Here are the 5 main scientific reasons behind this:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"jetpack-video-wrapper\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"\u0d05\u0d38\u0d3f\u0d21\u0d3f\u0d31\u0d4d\u0d31\u0d3f \u0d28\u0d46\u0d1e\u0d4d\u0d1a\u0d3f\u0d30\u0d3f\u0d1a\u0d4d\u0d1a\u0d3f\u0d7d \u0d2a\u0d46\u0d1f\u0d4d\u0d1f\u0d28\u0d4d\u0d28\u0d4d \u0d2e\u0d3e\u0d31\u0d41\u0d02 \u0d07\u0d19\u0d4d\u0d19\u0d28\u0d46 \u0d1a\u0d46\u0d2f\u0d4d\u0d24\u0d3e\u0d7d. \u0d21\u0d4b\u0d15\u0d4d\u0d1f\u0d31\u0d41\u0d1f\u0d46 \u0d05\u0d28\u0d41\u0d2d\u0d35\u0d02 \u0d15\u0d47\u0d7e\u0d15\u0d4d\u0d15\u0d42\" width=\"930\" height=\"523\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/qfScNuKtgxs?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p>Lesser Esophageal Sphincter Dysfunction: There is a special valve (LES &#8211; Lower Esophageal Sphincter) in the part that connects our esophagus and stomach. This is something that opens only when we eat and then closes. This valve prevents the acid in the stomach from rising upwards. But when this valve weakens due to certain foods or habits, acid easily flows into the esophagus and causes heartburn.<\/p>\n<p>Trigger Foods: Eating fried and fried foods, fast food, pickles, and spicy and sour foods can sharply increase acid production in the stomach. In addition, chocolates, sour citrus fruits, and onions are foods that cause the LES valve to relax.<\/p>\n<p>Reclining After Meals: Another important scientific cause of acidity is the habit of lying down immediately after eating. When we sit up straight, the acid stays down due to gravity. But when we lie down immediately after eating, the stomach fluid easily flows into the esophagus and causes severe heartburn. This is more common in people who eat late at night.<\/p>\n<p>Obesity and tight clothing (Increased Intra-abdominal Pressure): Weight gain, especially a large belly, puts a lot of pressure on the stomach. Due to this pressure, the acid in the stomach pushes the upper valve open and tries to come out. Similarly, wearing clothes and belts that are too tight around the stomach are factors that increase this internal pressure.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"jetpack-video-wrapper\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"\u0d05\u0d38\u0d3f\u0d21\u0d3f\u0d31\u0d4d\u0d31\u0d3f \u0d28\u0d46\u0d1e\u0d4d\u0d1a\u0d3f\u0d30\u0d3f\u0d1a\u0d4d\u0d1a\u0d3f\u0d7d \u0d2a\u0d46\u0d1f\u0d4d\u0d1f\u0d28\u0d4d\u0d28\u0d4d \u0d2e\u0d3e\u0d31\u0d41\u0d02 \u0d07\u0d19\u0d4d\u0d19\u0d28\u0d46 \u0d1a\u0d46\u0d2f\u0d4d\u0d24\u0d3e\u0d7d. \u0d21\u0d4b\u0d15\u0d4d\u0d1f\u0d31\u0d41\u0d1f\u0d46 \u0d05\u0d28\u0d41\u0d2d\u0d35\u0d02 \u0d15\u0d47\u0d7e\u0d15\u0d4d\u0d15\u0d42\" width=\"930\" height=\"523\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/qfScNuKtgxs?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p>Caffeine, alcohol, smoking (Lifestyle Factors): Drinking too much tea and coffee every day (caffeine) can stimulate the stomach walls and cause them to produce more acid. Along with this, smoking and drinking alcohol completely weaken the valve in the esophagus and lose its ability to resist acid.
