Overeat

Overeat

Don't Overeat. The commercial of several years ago featuring the heartburn sufferer incredulous for having eaten "the whole thing" was right on target. The fuller the stomach gets, the more acid it produces, and the easier it is for this acid to overflow into the esophagus. People who get heartburn should eat lightly with this in mind. Better to have four or five small meals a day than two or three feasts.
