Components

Sodium alginate: is a chemical compound formed from the sodium salt of alginic acid, with a minimum formula of NaC6H7O6. Extracted from the cell walls of algae, it appears as a gum. It has numerous uses in both the food and pharmaceutical industries. The suspension formed by sodium alginate, once ingested, reacts with the hydrochloric acid present in the stomach, forming a gel-like coating of alginic acid at the cardia level. This gel-like structure of sodium alginate, with a pH close to neutral, floats on top of the food present in the stomach, effectively preventing gastroesophageal reflux.

Sodium bicarbonate: Sodium hydrogen carbonate, or sodium acid carbonate, or monosodium carbonate (or sodium bicarbonate, which is the more common name, but which has been deprecated by the IUPAC) is a sodium salt of carbonic acid. Unlike carbonate, hydrogen carbonate retains a hydrogen ion of the corresponding acid.

Melatonin: It is an epiphyseal hormone, also secreted by extraglandular tissue. Experimental studies on animals indicate that the hormone increases the concentration of aminobutyric acid and serotonin in the midbrain and hypothalamus and increases the activity of pyridoxal kinase, an enzyme involved in the synthesis of aminobutyric acid, dopamine, and serotonin.
