What is the Bedge?
The Bedge is a tool for minimizing the symptoms of acid reflux. There are many ways to treat acid reflux disease, GERD, and heartburn (see "Treating Reflux" for more information). One of the cornerstones of treatment of Acid Reflux is to elevate the head of the bed. Bedge provides a natural remedy for relieving the symptons of acid reflux by simply using gravity to help prevent stomach acid from coming back into the throat thereby protecting the esophagus from acid reflux disease damage."

The Bedge is designed to be firm enough to ensure a natural remedy for relieving symptoms of acid reflux , while providing a comfortable nights sleep with a soft "egg-crate" surface. It’s extra length assures comfortable and natural heartburn remedy and treatment for relieving symptoms and discomfort associated with acid reflux disease by elevating the critical gastro esophageal junction located just below the breast bone. Other, shorter wedges may only bend the neck, making sleeping on them uncomfortable, and not providing enough anti-reflux disease or heartburn relief.

What is Acid reflux disease?
Acid reflux disease is the spontaneous regurgitation of acid and food from the stomach into the esophagus. This typically causes a warm, burning sensation over the front of the chest and may radiate into the throat. This pain is known as "Heartburn."

Who is effected by Acid Reflux Symptoms?
Many women suffer acid pregnancy reflux and great discomfort from heartburn during pregnancy and need a natural remedy for relieving the symptons of acid reflux. For millions of people, symptoms of acid reflux disease and heartburn may be only an infrequent discomfort. Pregnant women should check with their doctor before using the Bedge.

What else can Heartburn mean?
For millions more, chronic heartburn may be an indication of a more serious condition. Acid reflux can lead to an inflamed esophagus, breathing problems, difficulty eating, and even cancer.

The Bedge is a polyether foam wedge giving inclined support to the entire upper body providing a supplemental and natural treatment for relieving the symptons of acid reflux, GERD and heartburn. It is nine inches high at the head, thirty inches wide, and 42 inches long. This size will fit comfortably on a twin bed, take up half the width of a queen-sized bed, and less than half the width of a king-sized bed.

That’s why, when it comes to relieving symptoms and discomfort associated with acid reflux disease/ heartburn, we say: Start with the Bedge, and stay with it!
