A new survey has revealed the overwhelming lack of knowledge about the causes and symptoms of hiatus hernia and chronic acid reflux in the UK. These results come despite the fact that 1 in 3 people aged over 50 have hiatus hernia and 13 million people suffer from chronic acid reflux.
Hiatus hernia means that the top part of the stomach slides up into the chest cavity. Common symptoms include heartburn, chest pain and the feeling a lump in the throat. The symptoms that can increase the risk of a number of serious conditions, including swallowing problems that can cause food to get stuck in the throat, increases the risk of cell change and cancer, poorer dental and oral health. The mis-swallowing can also increase the risk of pneumonia.
Whilst more people were aware of chronic acid reflux, very few people who were polled knew how to manage the condition despite it having a huge negative impact on their physical and mental health. 1 in 4 said it had forced them to change their daily routine, 1 in 5 people said that they had experienced depression or anxiety due to the condition. Only 11% of people know that acid reflux could be treated through muscular training.
But IQoro works by training the muscles between the mouth and stomach that are used every time you swallow. Every time you swallow food or gulp water, 148 muscles transport the food or liquid down to the stomach safely. These muscles need training just like any other in our body. IQoro trains and strengthens the whole muscle chain to help them get stronger. Completely naturally and without medication”. Case Study: Irene Hope, 70, a retired schoolteacher from Sheffield, began using IQoro in 2022.
