Acid reflux occurs when bile flows back into the stomach and esophagus, causing symptoms like nausea, heartburn, and abdominal discomfort. It’s often linked to issues with the pyloric valve or gallbladder function. If left untreated, bile reflux can cause inflammation and damage to the digestive tract. Managing bile reflux involves lifestyle changes such as dietary adjustments, stress reduction, and supporting digestive health. Understanding the causes and early symptoms is key to finding relief and protecting your gut health.
