QUICK-EZE FAQs
Symptoms & relief
What is indigestion?
Indigestion is a painful or uncomfortable feeling in the upper middle part of your abdomen.
What is heartburn?
Heartburn, also known as reflux, occurs when stomach acid rises from the stomach up into the oesophagus, resulting in a burning, uncomfortable feeling in your chest or throat.
What is an antacid and how does it work?
A type of medication (which in the case of QUICK-EZE is alkaline in nature) that works by neutralising excess stomach acid.
Can quitting coffee cure acid reflux?
While giving up coffee might help alleviate symptoms for some people, it’s not necessarily a guaranteed cure for acid reflux. Coffee, with its natural acidity and caffeine content, can relax the lower oesophageal sphincter (LOS), potentially allowing stomach acid to flow back into the oesophagus and trigger discomfort. However, acid reflux is usually influenced by a combination of factors, and simply cutting out coffee may not resolve the issue entirely. Discover how to avoid acid reflux with lifestyle changes.
