Heartburn symptoms are experienced by many people, but they can usually be relieved with an over-the-counter medication such as Tums Extra Strength and lifestyle modification. A number of factors can trigger heartburn, including pregnancy, obesity, and hiatal hernias. Examples of lifestyle changes that you can implement to help avoid the occurrence of heartburn include not eating large, fatty meals, limiting alcohol consumption, eating smaller, regular meals more slowly, and avoiding the foods that trigger your heartburn symptoms.

After a meal, your stomach produces acid to break down the food particles. If your stomach creates excess acid, you may experience a burning sensation, where your stomach contents and the stomach acid is regurgitated back into your esophagus. This is called heartburn. Other heartburn symptoms can include pain/pressure behind your breastbone area, burping, sour/acidic taste in your mouth or the back of your throat, and discomfort after eating when you sit or lie down. Tums Extra Strength will provide relief from uncomfortable heartburn symptoms, as the medicine neutralizes the excess stomach acid.
