Do you want to double your risk of pneumonia? If you are taking heartburn drugs as commonly prescribed you might be at risk.
Pneumonia is a leading cause of death among the elderly.

A recent study of more than 363000 people, and was conducted by Dr. Robert J.F. Laheij from the University Medical Center located in the Netherlands and was hushed up.

The popular purple pill seen in commercials almost doubles your risk of pneumonia says Dr. Laheij’s team. Even the older drugs that are sold over the counter could raise your risk by a shocking 66%.

These acid-blocker drugs make you vunerable to a variety of germs because what they do is stop the secretion of stomach acid which kills off harmful microbes whithin your digestive tract.

Outrageous because these heartburn drugs might not be as dangerous if prescribed properly.
