2Acid Reflux Relief
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) or acid reflux, is a chronic digestive disease caused when the liquid content refluxes into the esophagus from the stomach. Manuka honey might not be a cure but it does work well on alleviating discomfort caused by acid reflux. Thanks to its high density, high viscosity, and low surface tension, manuka honey could coat on the membrane of the esophagus to soothe and prevent damage related to acid reflux. It could also reduce inflammation in the esophagus and keep acid down. While there might be no side effects for most people, it is more advisable to consult a doctor before using manuka honey as a medical treatment. [2]
