I've been having this annoying pain in my food pipe whenever I swallow food, and I've noticed a mild chest pain every time I eat. It's also like there's this burning heat in my stomach, especially when I have tea or coffee. What could be causing this? Should I be worried?

You may be experiencing symptoms of acid reflux or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). I would recommend trying antacids like Gelusil, Digene, or Pudin Hara for relief from the heat and discomfort in your stomach. Additionally, you can consider taking medications like Pantocid or Omeprazole to reduce stomach acid production and alleviate chest pain while eating. It is important to avoid trigger foods like tea or coffee that can worsen your symptoms.

View allI've been eating raw rice for over two years now and I usually eat quite a lot every day. I'm starting to wonder if this habit could be bad for my health. Is eating raw rice harmful?
Eating raw rice can be harmful as it may lead to various health issues. It can cause digestive problems such as bloating, gas, and constipation. In severe cases, it can also lead to nutrient deficiencies due to the phytates present in raw rice that can interfere with nutrient absorption. I recommend seeking medical advice to address this habit.

I'm a bit concerned about my SGPT levels. Currently, it's at 44 UL. Is this within the normal range, or should I be worried about it being too high? I'd really appreciate some guidance on this.
Your SGPT level of 44 UL is slightly above the typical normal range, which is usually around 756 UL. However, it is still within a generally acceptable limit, but if you're experiencing any symptoms or concerns, its best to discuss this with your doctor for further evaluation.
