Heartburn or GERD can Kill

Heartburn is a common annoyance. The busy lifestyle, quick meals, fatty or spicy foods all contribute to the occasional need of a chewable pain reliever. The acceptance of heartburn as an inconvenient, but natural, part of the daily grind can blind you to the warning that a severe heartburn symptom can bring.

Heartburn as a Disorder

Heartburn can be a symptom as well as a disorder. Simple heartburn or GERD can be controlled and dealt with. However, heartburn can signal the presence of a much more serious problem. If it’s heartburn, you will have a burning sensation in the chest usually after eating. There may be a spread of the burning to the throat, sometimes accompanied by a bad taste, difficulty in swallowing, belching, coughing, hoarseness and/or wheezing.

It can become worse by lying down or bending over or by eating. Relief can come from an antacid. While the more severe heartburn symptoms may be mistaken for a heart attack, simple heartburn is usually not made worse by exercise. If there is any concern that the pain may signal a heart attack, get help quickly.

Using a Wrinkle Cream Can Be Very Effective

By Nigel James

None of us are ready to accept the lifelong struggle against aging, but it is real, it's going to happen ... aging, that is.We can sit back and do nothing, or we can act, now.Our options are many, but our first port of call should be an effective wrinkle cream.Distinguishing between all the dozens of various brands on offer, is not so easy though, so take your time and do some evaluating.

The first thing to recognise is that the majority will do something to make you feel more contented about those dreaded wrinkles.Some will have excellent results and others will fail miserably.Problem is, there is no miracle list available to tell you which works and which doesn't, simply because products that work for some people, don't work for others.Do your due diligence, and read some reviews, this may help.

Do your research and then experiment yourself with small quantities of the various products available to you. The World Wide Web is a good place to begin your research, there is so much information available that it can become overwhelming if you don't have a plan to follow. Find the products that seem to hold the most promise for a person that matches your skin type and then buy some.

When you enter the experimentation phase, you'll begin to find out why the process is so critical and can actually be both frustrating and rewarding. Some of your test products will totally fail, others will seem to work and then not so much. Only after going through this process can you identify the wrinkle cream that seems to work best for you. After you have identified the product, or products, that seem to work for you, it is important that you remain committed to the process.

You need to have a strong belief that the items you have identified will work, with your continued committement every single day.With no other product is it more true than with wrinkle cream, daily application is a must, even possibly twice, both day and night.

For your wrinkle cream to perform and give you the results you desire,you have to accept that using it once in a while won't work.Adressing this issue before your girls night out, is not the time to start.It has to be daily, every day, after you brush your teeth maybe.You will achieve results in time, if you abide by your regime.

Be ready too, to shift gears along the way if you feel you're not getting the long term results you hoped for.Loyalty is a valuable attribute in a relationship, but only if you're getting something out of it too.When the payoff begins to slip, then you may have no choice but to move on and try something different.

Likewise, if your product is working, then don't be tempted to make a change that can cost you time in the battle that you have worked so hard to win. If you have a winning strategy ? keep it.
