HYPER ACIDITY ( GERD )
The acid (HCL) in the moderate or mild condition known as hyperacidity. Hyperacidity is a hyper condition known as Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) occurs when stomach acid frequently flows back into the tube connecting your mouth and stomach (esophagus). This acid reflux can irritate the coating of your esophagus. Most people can manage the discomfort of GERD with lifestyle changes and over-the-counter medications.
CAUSES
 It is caused by frequent acid reflux. When you swallow, a circular band of muscle around the bottom of your esophagus (lower oesophageal sphincter) relaxes to permit food and liquid to flow into your stomach. Then the sphincter closes over. If the sphincter relaxes unusually or weakens, stomach acid can flow back up into your esophagus. This constant reflex of acid irritates the lining of your esophagus, often causing it to become inflamed.
SYMPTOMS
A burning feeling in your chest (heartburn), generally after eating, which might be worse at night, Epigastric heaviness and Chest pain, trouble swallowing, the reflex of food or sour liquid
When you have nighttime acid reflux, also experience:
Chronic cough, Laryngitis, New or worsening asthma
