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.

Betting Made EZ - Betting Bookmakers

By Chris Jensen

Betting bookmakers are very in demand because of the increasing number of people hooked up to betting on various sports. At agreed upon odds, they take bets for events on various sports. Though often they are just like us, they can also be like organizations.

Normally, at agreed upon odds, betting bookmakers take bets for events on horse racing, greyhound racing, golf, football, tennis, and even basketball. There are instances when they take bets in wide range including each-way betting.

Betting bookmakers can really help as they can make things easier most especially for people hooked up to betting on various sports. But unfortunately, they are sometimes nowhere to be found because of some legality issues about their nature of work. Specifically, they are sometimes nowhere to be found in countries like the United States and United Kingdom.

However, betting bookmakers can't be stopped from doing business just because of some legality issues about their nature of work. Right now, they even conquered the online world of betting.

At this point in time, betting bookmakers are doing good in the online world of betting. Still at agreed upon odds, they still take bets for events on various sports. But they know competition among each of them is really stiff in the online world of betting so they are now trying to provide more betting-related services and trying to offer promotions such as free bets, vouchers, and cash backs.

Betting bookmakers had withstand the test of times and now they are still up for the challenge of rendering service to people hooked up to betting on various sports. They are admirable.
