[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wonder this too. I don’t know what my grandmothers were like in their 50s. Surely they pushed through menopause. Women of that generation were stoic and they didn’t discuss their misery. I don’t think allergies were as bad then. Anxiety was pretty common for some. That was the generation who took Benzos. However women did not eat heavy back then. Canned peaches, whipped cream, small amounts meat and potatoes, small egg salad or tuna sandwiches on white bread, that sort of thing. They would never eat pizza or anything to cause heartburn. [/quote] My aunt died of esophageal cancer so women back then definitely had heartburn. Heck you can find People throughout the ages writing about indigestion and heartburn. Canterbury Tales has tons of fart jokes. There are tons of medieval texts on herbal "cures" for heartburnm The idea that people didn't have heartburn back in the day is easily disproven.[/quote]
