mouth, it results in symptoms like Tan’s, as well as a sour taste in the mouth and a dry cough.
When heartburn persists over a number of years, patients report having a feeling that food is stuck in the chest or throat, or even breathlessness, which is triggered by acid reflux.
Chronic heartburn which happens weekly could be a more serious condition known as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).
Unless treated, GERD can cause chronic inflammation and the development of ulcers, which increases the risk of oesophageal cancer.
Stomach acid helps food to digest, and prevents harmful bacteria from invading the body.
By taking acid suppression medication, there is insufficient acid to digest food. Instead, food ferments in the stomach to release gas, which is a common and distressful symptom of heartburn.
Acid suppression also compromises the body’s natural defence mechanisms, increasing the risk of infections.
With the advance of research into natural therapies for gastrointestinal disorders, patients with heartburn or GERD can now consider an alternative way of managing their condition.
The conifer green needle complex known as Bioeffective A is the result of an extensive botanical research programme which spans more than 80 years.
Clinical studies conducted found that patients treated with Bioeffective A experienced a 92% improvement in dyspeptic symptoms. Not only that, most patients saw a return of normal stomach functionality, besides a reduction in pre-cancerous lesions.
Bioeffective A is a unique healing agent for the tummy and gut. It helps strengthen damaged or weakened oesophageal valves, imparts antiinflammatory benefits to the stomach lining, as well as support the normalisation of digestive juices in the stomach.
These multiple actions lead to the return of optimal stomach functions, without the side effects of conventional medications.
As a start, the recommended dose for heartburn or acid reflux is 320mg three times a day. Each dose is to be taken about 30 minutes before meals, with some warm water.
“I came to realise that my health was more important than the money I could stand to make,” confessed Tan, who found out about Bioeffective from his pharmacist.
After taking it, over the weeks, Tan noticed that he was able to eat food without feeling the burn or the food coming back up into his throat.
Three months later, he looks visibly more energetic and well. He has also stopped smoking and is able to sleep through the night.
“I no longer feel sick like before and at the least, I have managed to get off my medications,” shares Tan.
