Don't Let Acid Reflux Ruin Your Vacation

Acid reflux, also called GERD, is an annoying and painful condition that occurs when stomach acid backs up into your esophagus. This results in a burning sensation after you eat, or for some, while sleeping at night.

The majority of symptoms can be controlled with lifestyle changes, and occasional medication. Vacations can induce a bout of acid reflux due to irregular meal times, unusual foods, and the basic urge to over indulge in both food and alcohol while at play.

For most of us, it really isn't a vacation unless we loosen up a bit, so here are a few tips to help you keep your acid reflux symptoms under control and still enjoy your vacation.

1. When you indulge, limit the high fat foods, and high spice foods. You can enjoy a taste of the local foods, but in moderation. Use your common sense, if you know a particular food is one of your heartburn triggers, avoid it.

2. Drinks mixed with citrus juices can bring on the symptoms of GERD, as can alcohol. Drink both in moderation.

3. Try to eat small meals or snacks through out the day. Starving all day and making up for it at suppertime is a sure way to start a severe episode of acid reflux at night.

4. Wear comfortable clothing. The pressure of a tight waistband can promote heartburn symptoms. Don't force yourself into your favorite pants just to look good- dress comfortably, and you will look and feel great.

5. Remember to bring your medication. Even if your symptoms are under control at home, don't let heartburn ruin your vacation. Pack some extra medication, just in case you end up eating and drinking more than you anticipated.

6. Don't spend all your time lying down. Sleeping too much and relaxing in the sun can encourage acid reflux symptoms. When you recline, it is easier for stomach acid to back up into your esophagus. To prevent this, be sure to elevate your head on two or more pillows at all times

While this list sounds like you will be missing all the fun of vacation time, taking precautions against heartburn will make your time off much more enjoyable.
