When stomach acid is regurgitate back into the mouth and throat damage will be done if the problem is left untreated. The stomach has a special protective lining to protect it from the stomach acid used to break down foods. However, the esophagus and mouth do not have this protection and over a period of time serious damage can be done. Sometimes acid reflux can be done away with if the patient will only make some lifestyle changes. For anyone interested here is some good information on the subject. It has a lot to do with natural herbal remedies and good eating and lifestyle habits. I am not advocating this as a solution for everyone but it did work for me.
