A beautiful singing or speaking voice is a wonderful way to praise Heaven. Here is a useful throat-care tip. Laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR), commonly known as “silent reflux”, can occur without typical warning signs. The symptoms can be mistaken for normal vocal strain. If your voice regularly feels worse toward the end of sentences, you feel you have to push to produce sound, or hoarseness persists despite using proper vocal techniques, it may be worth seeing a professional for an assessment. There are several lifestyle changes that may help reduce reflux symptoms and protect your voice. Eat smaller food portions each meal to reduce stomach pressure and minimize reflux potential. Additionally, drink fluids well before or a few hours after your meal rather than at the same time. Avoid eating late at night, especially before lying down or going to bed. Limit spicy foods, high-fat meals, and other foods that trigger your symptoms. Reduce or steer clear of caffeinated drinks and alcohol. Elevating your head while sleeping can also help decrease reflux, while excess body weight can also contribute, so consult with your primary care provider to see whether weight management may be beneficial.
