Are you taking medication?

Heartburn is a frequent side effect of many types of medication.

Heartburn is not always caused by something you do or the way you live your life. Many people feel that if only they improved their lifestyle, their heartburn would go away. But the real cause is in some cases a physical dysfunction in the digestive system, which in these cases are unlikely to be fixed simply by changing your lifestyle. Heartburn has always been around – long before fast-food, mobile phones and long days at the office!
