Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) occurs when stomach acid frequently flows back into the tube connecting your mouth and stomach (esophagus).
From a homeopathic perspective, acid reflux and GERD signify an imbalance in the body’s vital force, manifesting as burning, regurgitation, and discomfort.
