4. Acid Reflux or GERD

Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a condition in which stomach acid travels up into the esophagus, where it causes nausea, vomiting, respiratory problems, pain when swallowing and bad breath. GERD is most common in people who are overweight, smoke and take certain prescription medications.

When untreated, GERD can lead to complications, such as inflammation of the esophagus, narrowing of the esophagus and Barrett’s esophagus, which causes cellular changes that can become cancerous.5‘GERD: Symptoms, Causes, and Treatment.’ Medical News Today, MediLexicon International, www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/14085#causes.
