I'm glad that after three weeks of changing my diet, I'm finally seeing positive results with my acid reflux issue. I was feeling anxious for a while because it didn’t seem to improve during the first two weeks. However, by the third week, I started noticing significant improvements in my condition. Although it wasn’t very serious, I feel it's something I need to take seriously to prevent it from worsening to a point where I might regret not acting sooner.
I'm not sure if you also believe that our gut health reflects a lot about our overall lifestyle. I never really paid attention to it until recently, when I started experiencing unusual sensations in my diaphragm and throat. I also noticed a post-nasal drip issue, which is said to be linked to high acidity in the digestive system. My GP prescribed some medications to help, but I felt it was also my responsibility to take an active role in ensuring a quick recovery from my gut issues. The gut is one of the most important parts of the body, so I don’t want to take it for granted.
I began trying several remedies as soon as I started the medications. In the first week, I relied mainly on antacids, nasal sprays, and oxytol mouth spray. From the second week onward, I focused more on improving my diet.
At first, having oatmeal for breakfast felt boring compared to enjoying beehoon and kopi—LOL. But eventually, I learned to appreciate a bowl of oatmeal each morning. I started adding healthy toppings to make it more enjoyable. Oatmeal might seem bland at first, but with the right nutritious toppings, it can be transformed in so many tasty ways.
But of course, from time to time, I also treat myself to what I’d consider a “sinful” meal—hehehe—like the one I had earlier... chicken chop rice!
Technically, I shouldn’t be eating something this heavy late at night, but I’m considering it a break from my usual diet. This kind of meal just hits the spot after a long day at work. And now, I feel ready to take on tomorrow’s challenges. :)
