Beware: Antacids Can Work Against You

Stomach acid serve many roles besides aiding digestive enzymes. Gastric acidity is one of the natural defenses of the host against infection from food- and water-infective microorganisms. According to Dr. Hornick and colleagues, under buffered conditions the illness producing dose of Vibrio cholerae can increase 10,000 times. Antacid and cimetidine therapy, which reduced gastric acidity, was associated with Listeria infections. Reduced gastric acidity also enhanced pathogenesis in Salmonella infections.

Like toxic chemicals, the viruses can cause birth effects. Of the viruses cytomegalovirus (CMV) stands out. CMV can cause hearing loss, intellectual disabilities. premature birth, liver problems, lung problems, spleen problems, small size at birth, small head size and seizures. Therefore exposure of pregnant women to CMV is the biggest risk factor for birth defects. The CDC reports that about t in 1,000 live births, about 8 infants, will have congenital CMV infection, of which 1-2 (0.1%) will have permanent problems.

Contaminated surfaces can transmit CMV and cause infection.

Stowell and colleagues presented the survival of CMV on the surfaces in a study in a scientific journal in 2012.
