Heartburn & Reflux in Summer: Drinks in Context

Reflux and Heartburn in Summer
For many people, though, summer heat doesn't only mean easy, carefree days — it can also make familiar discomfort worse. Higher temperatures affect the body differently, and a sensation of heartburn or reflux can become more noticeable. This article looks at what the composition of a mineral water can tell you.
Summer Factors and Reflux
In summer we sweat more, lose important minerals, and often eat lighter but more acidic food — think salads with vinegar dressing or citrus fruit. Ice-cold drinks can be another source of irritation. All of this can throw your stomach acid off balance and play a role in reflux and digestive discomfort. Symptoms in the digestive tract can have many different causes, though, and mineral water is not a substitute for diagnosis or treatment — when choosing a product, only its composition, mineral content, and manufacturer information can be objectively compared.
