4. Chronic diseases of the circulatory, lymphatic, respiratory, nervous, endocrine, gastrointestinal, musculoskeletal, integumentary, immune, urogenital, and hematopoietic systems;
5. Esophageal, gastric, and/or duodenal diseases based on EGD performed at screening and based on the medical history; a history of esophageal, gastric, and/or duodenal surgery;
6. Diseases/conditions which, in the opinion of the investigator, may affect the pH measurement results;
7. Acute infectious diseases less than 4 weeks prior to screening;
8. Use of antacids (including sodium bicarbonate solution)/H2 antagonists 24 h prior to the Screening Visit;
9. Use of proton pump inhibitors 72 h prior to the Screening Visit;
10. Use of (including use of a single dose) steroids and/or other ulcerogenic drug (e.g., nonsteriodal anti-inflammatory drugs \[NSAID\]) less than 4 weeks prior to the Screening Visit;

20. Deviated septum/nasal obstruction preventing the placement of the pH probe;
21. Medical history of chronic constipation;
22. Medical history of severe maxillofacial injuries;
23. Expected admission to hospital during this study for any reason, except for hospitalization provided for by this protocol;
24. Impossibility or failure to comply with the protocol, undergo protocol-defined procedures, or adhere to the diet or activity regime;
25. Other circumstances which in the opinion of the investigator prevent a volunteer from being included in the study or may result in premature drop-out from the study.

Withdrawal criteria:

8. Positive urine test for narcotics and strong drugs;
9. Positive breath alcohol vapor test or alcohol in saliva;
10. Positive pregnancy test in women;
11. The occurrence in the course of the study of other reasons that prevent the study according to the protocol.
