SitemapThat Burning Feeling
More than one in three adults suffers from heartburn or indigestion every year (Reference: NICE http://www.nice.org.uk/article.asp?a=3587). The terms are commonly interchanged as they both relate to acid and the digestive system. They may also have similar triggers, so how can you tell which condition you may be suffering from? And more importantly, what can you do to help yourself?
Through this site we hope to help you find all the answers. We also hope to reassure you that most cases of heartburn and indigestion can be relieved, or even prevented, from occurring again in future.
