Technically called gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), heartburn occurs when stomach contents back up into your esophagus.

Washington, DC - Back to school, back to the books, back in the saddle, or back in the car for those of us shuttling students to and from school.

Chicago, Illinois - If there is one meal that exemplifies the differences among generations, it’s dinner, finds The NPD Group, a leading global information company.  Each group’s motivations, needs, and wants when it comes to dinner are as varied as their taste in music, according to a recently released generational study published by The NPD Group.
