Is drinking ENO powder for the last 30 days bad for my health? I've been using it daily and I'm a bit concerned about whether it's safe to keep taking. Could it have any long-term effects?

It is not advisable to use Eno powder for prolonged durations. It can cause bloating and erructations as well as disturbances in the normal gut flora due to change in intestinal PH.

I'm having some issues with my stomach, especially in the morning. There's this pain that comes along with motions, and it kinda feels like it's burning in my stomach and heart. Not too long ago, my doctor said it was food poisoning or an infection and gave me some meds for three days, which helped at first. But now the pain and motions are back just like before. What could be going on?

The recurring stomach pain, motion, and heartburn despite completing the prescribed medication for food poisoninginfection suggest a possible underlying condition such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), stomach ulcers, or irritable bowel syndrome (IBS); consider consulting your doctor again for further evaluation, potential endoscopy or imaging tests, and adjusted treatment, as well as making lifestyle changes like avoiding trigger foods, eating smaller meals, and managing stress.

I've been feeling a weird tightness in my chest and throat, and it's not exactly painful, but it's definitely uncomfortable. The only time I feel some relief is when Im eating, drinking hot drinks, burping, coughing, or sneezing but it only lasts for a short time. I also smoke, and yesterday I noticed a mild sensation in my chest, though I can't tell if it's burning or not. I'm really concerned and need some expert advice to figure out what's going on with me.

take tablet pantoprazole for 5 days once daily 30 minutes before food
