The stomach produces about 2 litres of gastric juice per day<\/strong>. This production is highest at mealtimes and during prolonged fasting. The main role of gastric juice is the total digestion of proteins and the reduction of solid food into portions that can be assimilated by the intestine. The hormonal regulation of gastric acidity is ensured by the \"G\" cells of the stomach which produce \"gastrin\" and the nervous regulation by the \"vagus\" nerve.<\/span><\/p>\n Stomach acidity increases in several cases:<\/span><\/p>\n Lactose intolerance can be manifested by heartburn\u00a0<\/b>this syndrome, which is linked to a lactase deficiency<\/b> (an enzyme that breaks down\u00a0lactose<\/a> in glucose and galactose), increases the production of intestinal gases which cause abdominal pain, these stomach aches will create a climate of stress; the stress<\/b> can increase stomach acidity and cause heartburn. It should be noted that lactose intolerance is most often associated with abdominal pain, diarrhoea and bloating.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Taking it in the morning on an empty stomach of<\/b> proton pump inhibitors<\/b> such as \"omeprazole\" reduces gastric acidity and protects the stomach cells. However, if the diagnosis of lactose intolerance is made, the elimination of dairy products<\/b> lactose-rich<\/b> becomes the ideal treatment.\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n It may also be advisable to supplement with lactase enzyme<\/a>This makes it much easier to eat outside the home. This makes it much easier to eat outside the home.<\/span><\/p>\nAn increase in gastric acidity<\/span><\/h2>\n
