GastroIntestinal Reflux Disorder (GIRD) and Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) are two common digestive disorders that share similar symptoms: heartburn (burning sensation and or pain in the stomach and or chest, behind the breastbone), abdominal bloating, gas, nausea, shortness of breath and or acidic or sour taste in the throat. Both are generally caused by poor diet: too building or too cleansing.
Digestion is a very simple process. Food is taken via the mouth, chewed, mixed with saliva and sent down via the throat and esophagus into the stomach, where it is mixed with acid and enzymes. This mixture sits and ferments (souring process) before being sent down into the small intestines for further digestion and eventual nutrient absorption into the bloodstream.
