What Causes Excessive Burping And Sickness After Consuming Russian Yogurt Drink?

default
Posted on Fri, 10 Jun 2016
Question: Hello,
I started drinking Keifier which is a Russian yogurt drink and a blended all natural fruit smoothie in the morning in place of breakfast. Now I feel slightly sick and I burp like crazy for hours after eating orange juice or a coke or a bagel and cream cheese. I stopped this routine but now I am sick with what ever this is. Any ideas?
Thank you!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you for asking!
I read carefully all your concerns and I can say that your symptoms are mostly related with :
- gastritis
-GERD( acid reflux)
Orange juices can aggravate the symptoms of gastritis and especially acid reflux.
This is why at your situation I would recommend to start:
1. PPI 's treatment like Prilosec OTC
2. Antacids like gaviscon
3. Have a healthy diet like:
- avoid spicy , chilly foods
- eat often and small amount of meal
- avoid alcohol and smoking
- use two pillows when you lay down.

With regards to the exams i would recommend to do upper endoscopy to better evaluate stomach mucosa.

Hope it was helpful to you!
