When using antacid in a daily basis could it harm you?

Answer 1

The acid in your stomach is designed to kill bacteria. It is also designed to tear apart the bonds holding proteins together and break them down into their consistent amino acids. Your body uses the amino acids to produce the proteins that it needs. Some of the proteins in your stomach can cause problems. If you need to use antacid on a daily basis it could be a symptom of an underlying disease such as ulcers or acid reflux. Better medicines exist for both. Antibiotics can cure ulcers in 3 weeks. Other medicines can treat acid reflux. Get treated.
