Help for Sufferers of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)

One of the best ways to get control over GERD, especially if you experience heartburn while you sleep, is to sleep with your upper body elevated.

Gravity is a great ally against GERD, it makes it harder for stomach acid to work its way upward. Other allies include saliva (which essentially washes regurgitated liquid back down the esophagus) and the act of swallowing.

But when you sleep, you're all on your own against the forces of GERD -- no gravity (your esophagus is horizontal), no saliva production and no swallowing in your sleep. To help keep stomach acid out of your esophagus at night, you can elevate your upper body. You can use bed raiser blocks to lift the upper part of the bed so that the entire bed rests at an angle.
