Too Much Coffee Heartburn
Why do people get esophageal cancer?
My stomach is almost always irritated due to too much coffee drinking and stress and I get heartburn easily. I dont get hearburn everyday but I continously have issues with my stomach. Can I eventually get this type of cancer?
p.s. I eat plenty of fruits,veggies,fiber and drink lots of water after the coffee.
Long term acid reflux is a strong risk factor for developing esophageal cancer.
Cancer is caused by genetic damage to cells and then the cells get out of control becoming cancer cells. The damage to esophageal cells by acid over years damages the DNA making them change type, increasing the chance they will turn into cancer cells.
you should try to minimise the amount of reflux you get. If you can link it to certain drinks and foods such as coffee, alcohol, spice, high fat etc you should cut down on these to reduce reflux.
You should also consider taking regular antiacid medication. If over the counter tablets work for you to ease heart burn then take these. If these arent strong enough you should go to the doctor for some proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and even have an H.pylori test and a course of antibiotics. H. Pylori is a stomach bug that increases the amount of acid in the stomach and can worsen reflux.
