Gastroesophageal reflux disease is increasing worldwide. The causes of reflux symptoms are not found exactly. especially, the postprandial reflux symptoms are more common than the all day reflux symptoms. One of the causes of reflux symptoms is the relaxation of the lower sphincter of the esophagus. But, the sphincter relaxation also occur in normal people.
