Myths That Turn Your Stomach Sour: Acid Reflux Facts

When it comes to heartburn and acid reflux disease, its hard to separate fact from fiction. So many people believe old wives tales about heart burn. While taking antacids may help relief your heartburn today, it wont cure the problem. The only way to reverse the damage caused by acid reflux is by adopting a healthful diet and understanding the myths surrounding acid reflux.

Enjoy spicy foods

One myth is that you can prevent acid reflux by avoiding spicy foods. But researchers from Stanford University found avoiding spicy foods or drinking milk will not relieve heartburn. The only changes that seem to work include elevating your head while you sleep and eating smaller meals.

Eating more often

When people first hear they are supposed to eat more often, they rejoice. But eating more often does not mean eating more food. It just means you should have small meals spread out throughout the day. When it comes to acid reflux, eating large meals takes a toll on your digestive system. Small meals demand less hydrochloric acid for digestion. Make sure you eat a balanced meal including some complex carbohydrate with lean protein and healthy fats such as olive oil. High-fat meals require more stomach acid which can aggravate heartburn. While some experts say coffee, tea and alcohol do not play a role in acid reflux, its still a good idea to limit alcohol. Adhering to the phrase everything in moderation, can mean the difference between being thin or obese. Avoid beer and soda pop if you suffer with acid reflux. Diet soda is the most acid-forming beverage on the market. Avoid it like the plague. Besides, researchers have shown many times drinking diet soda will actually make you gain weight instead of lose it.

Tips for preventing heartburn

To prevent heartburn, go for a brisk walk after dinner. Give yourself a good hour before lying down after a meal. Also, if you can, elevate your head while sleeping. When you overindulge, try using an antacid, which is sold without a prescription, to alleviate the discomfort associated with heartburn. Just make a vow to adopt better eating habits and stop smoking. Some of the long-term risks associated with GERD include ulcers, asthma and cancer of the esophagus. Realize antacids are not candy. Some of the side effects include diarrhea and constipation. Use them only rarely and focus on lifestyle changes.

Indianapolis Schools Work With Their Communities To Improve Schools

One Indianapolis Schools Elementary School Gets New Playground

Parkview Elementary School 81 will receive a new playground on October 2nd but the work has already started. An asphalt lot will be a brand new playground thanks to the Allstate Foundation and Injury Free Coalition for Kids at Riley bipolar. About 50 volunteers are expected to be involved in the project.

The Allstate Foundation is an independent, charitable organization made possible by the Allstate Corporation. The Allstate Foundation works to create safe communities. The Allstate Foundation has offered a national donation of $370,000, seven locations across the US have been chosen with Indianapolis Schools Parkview Elementary School 81 being the only one in Indiana. Parkview Elementary School 81 was chosen, in part, because their recess area has for seventy five years been the asphalt lot.

The partnership between the Allstate Foundation and Injury Free Coalition for Kids at Riley bipolar aimed to redo the playground because of the safety issues surrounding child injuries on the playground. According to the Allstate Foundation, over 200,000 children suffer from injuries on the playground. Indianapolis Schools Parkview Elementary School 81s new playground will be fun and safe. It will be covered with a new soft rubber tile known as SofTile and all equipment will have rounded edges. Safety was not the only goal; Indianapolis Schools wanted to improve access for students with special needs and make sure the equipment was durable.

Indianapolis Schools has discovered that play is important to the students physical, developmental, cognitive, and social development. Playgrounds are great for providing opportunities to learn about conflict resolution, sharing, and relationship building. Recess time gives students the time to release energy so they can better concentrate during study time. Playgrounds allow students to begin focusing on physical fitness and exercise. Indianapolis Schools Superintendent Eugene G. White wants all children to grow up knowing the pleasure of climbing and sliding on a playground.

The 300 students of Parkview Elementary School 81 are not the only ones to benefit from the new playground. It is estimated that 1,400 children live in the area around the school; these children will have access to the playground when the school is not in session. The Riley bipolar for Children reports that the Northeast-side Community Organization found that this area has some of the highest childhood injury rates in the city. This new playground will decrease fall injuries.

Indianapolis Schools Project Seeks Tutors

A new tutoring project for the fourth grade that is a joint program with Indianapolis Schools and the United Way of Central Indiana is looking for tutors. The project was announced on September 4th. This project aims to help students with reading and language arts skills for the fourth grade.

This project was created because thirty percent of the Indianapolis Schools fourth graders read two or more grade levels below grade. It is believed that one on one tutoring in word recognition, vocabulary development and fluency will help students achieve higher scores. The United Way has been running several similar projects in Madison, Wisconsin. The project aims to recruit at least 200 tutors who could spend one hour per week between the hours of 9:00AM and 3:30 PM at Indianapolis Schools.
