Q. Why should I use the
GI Block?
A. Heartburn usually
occurs when the acid contents in the stomach flow into the esophagus. The stomach
acid can cause inflammation, spasms and scarring in the esophagus. Studies with
overnight monitoring devices have shown that elevating the head of the bed by 4" to
6" lets gravity work for you, resulting in a significant decrease in the exposure of
the esophagus to these acids.
Q. Why
should I use the
GI Block instead of bricks or books?
A. The G. I. Block
is scientifically engineered to be stable and permanent. The blocks are simple to
install, requiring no tools. They fit all standard beds and are available in four
attractive finished to match your bed: oak, mahogany, white, or black.
Q. Why
can't I just elevate my head with pillows?
A. This could worsen your condition.
Using pillows makes your body bend at the waist, which can cause more stomach acid to flow
back into your esophagus.
