hey friends recently got this news so decided to share with my myloters .....if you are taking more antacids to reduce the acidity after eating heavily spicy foods like snacks and other foods ........then the time has come to stop all this ...because a recent study proves that people taking more antacids are more prone to cancer ......of any parts in body ..........so please if you are suffering from acidity then drink water .more with lots of ice .........and sometime you can even try ......fruit juices .....but just stop taking antacids .......
the news is not much proliferated because drugs companies dont want to loose their business they make from antacids..........take care........

Thanks for sharing, friend. But the better option is to avoid too spicy food. Lets remove the root cause.

Once you start enjoying food with less spices, you will not enjoy spicy foods. The original test of food item say vegetables, will be retained if the spices are less. Otherwise just as in case of hotels, you will find all food taste same as they use almost same spice in all the items.LOL

hey eno is actually good thing but let me tell you a secret ..eno only refreshes you by giving one time relief ....actually they do remove acidity but only for sometime ....and you get acidity again in few hours that is because of reborn acidity.....
means these cold drinks like coke and pepsi and eno they give you relief for sometime and acidity occurs again in few hours ........so best take a lot of water .....you know that water is the best remedy for many stomach problems like congestion etc.......well i wish it helps take care........

Thank you for such useful and vital information. I did read something about this before. There was research done with people who take medications that are supposed to be acid reducing. The article I read stated that it can take decades for the cancer to develop so the research cannot be confirmed as yet. Having said that I may just take your advice and stop taking anti acids all together just to be safe.

almost all synthetic medicines have the capability of causing a disease. I believe in this because I have read it many times.
Sodium and calcium are cancer feeders so too much of them especially when you don't get them from natural sources puts a person at risk for cancer.
I worry about this because I have hyperacidity and anything can trigger me - from sodas, to anything with caffeine, to stress, or even premenstrual symptoms.

Finally I have seen something that could cause cancer that I've never done in my life. I beleive that there aren't too many things that we do in our lives that don't cause cancer. I've heard that drinking water, eating almost every food and more are possible causes of cancer. So, I think that we might all very well be doomed. However, at least I know that there is one cause of cancer that I don't have to worry about.
