heartburn cure amazing



Recommended Posts

I suffer with bad reflux and am fed up using over the counter stuff, anti acid tabs etc anyway decided to google for natural remedies and stumbled across a website that people can put their own cures. A few people mentioned vinegar (especially apple cider vinegar), well I didnt have any so tried white wine vinegar 2 tsps and hey presto gone just like that. Someone explained that it can be caused by lack of acid rather than to much, esecially when you dont get enough food in your stomach to produce the correct amount of stomach acid, now this makes heaps of sense and the proof is in the pudding. Just thought I would share.

I find this amazing! I have been on Prilosec and Prevacid since 1997 and it's been the only thing that has ever helped my reflux. At the seminar we were told acid reflux drugs were the first things they would take us off of so was surprised to find so many people being sent home on them after surgery. What's the deal?:thumbup:

I actually inherited acid reflux 4 months post op and I MEAN A BAD CASE OF IT! I have to fully rely on my prevacid DAILY. If i forget it for more than a day, I am in pain even with Water. If I take it, Im golden all day.

Do you drink the vinager by itself? And do you have to do it every time you have heartburn? If so, I'd rather take my magic pill! Let me know

1st time last night and it had gone within a minute. I think you can take it in a small gass of Water too, as long as you are introducing the acid to your stomach. Of course this wont work for everyone, but sure worked for me. Def worth a try, as if it doesnt work it wont harm you.

Does the reflux stop you from getting fills...I have some restriction but i have been told i could get a fill if it wasn't for the reflux. Worst part is i am white knuckling it. Six months out with one fill and little weight loss. I was told presurgery I had a hernia but it wasn't enough to repair. Now it causes the reflux that keeps me from getting a fill. ERR! Should I be on med's to help with that?

I have used this for quite a few years. It takes absolutely disgusting, but it works amazingly. Just be sure to have a glass of Water to chase it with!:thumbup:

Mushs- My doc took out some Fluid and said I have having the acid reflux cause I was too tight. I knew I wasnt too tight, but he did it anyways. As I suspected, it didnt fix a thing. A lot of docs thing the acid is cause buy being too tight so they wont fill, but trust me it doesnt make a difference. I was SOOOOOO loose and still had reflux BAD! So now I just take Prevacid daily and Im golden. As long as I have the reflux under control, my doc will fill me. Problem is that when your stomach is not keeping down the acid, it can start eating away at your throat and esophagus. Its so bad for you, so the docs dont want to make it worse. Good luck!

Wow... interesting! The only time I get heartburn is when I'm hungry. Its a sure sign of needing to eat for me.

Baking soda in Water works really good too! The amount you need to use is on the package.

How much Vinegar do you use?

I take 2 tbsp of apple cider vinegar, then chase it with about 6 oz of water.:thumbup:

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
