Digestive enzymes’ task is to break down food particles, so their deficiency is associated with gas, bloating, weight gain, and acid reflux.  The enzymes are contained in certain food, but are lost in the cooking process. Therefore, acid reflux appears, when gastric acid climbs up the esophagus giving us that burning sensation. This problem can bring more serious consequences, or be stopped. A solution is eating raw foods containing enzymes, without which food cannot be digested and results in acid reflux. Eat raw and steamed vegetables and fruit, and take enzyme capsules before meals to make sure that the body receives enough digestive enzimes to prevent acid reflux.
