Kathleen J asked:


I was diagnosed with Acid Reflux a few years ago and put on Nexium. At times it does not seem to be doing what I should, and the BIGGEST problem I have is that there is a tremendous amount of gas. Any ideas on a good (healthy) substitute?

Kinase asked:


Just last week, I had an endoscopy done and I feel like I have heartburn meaning I have GERD. Although, the doctors said they cant find anything that shows that I have GERD i have all of the symptoms of GERD. my questionS ARE, (1) Is GERD asymptomatic or is it something else? and when I defecate, there is blood in it. (2) so does that mean that I am getting cancer in the esophagus or esophagitis? why do i get blood when I defecate? I am very much confuse with what I have or am getting since the doctors themselves are unable to tell me what it is because they cant tell themselves. plz help, thanx

There are sometimes that when I eat food I can sleep and there are sometimes when I eat i get a strong pain in my chest that i cant sleep and when I brush my teeth i vomit the food that I ate like 8 hours ago. I am leaning towards GERD but oncce again, the doctors cant find anything that says that but i have the symptoms of it so what is it?? please help

My 5 month old was just diagnosed with acid reflux. She has a prescription that I give her 3 times a day in her formula to help settle her stomach. She hasnt been sleeping since shes been born so im hoping that this is the right diagnosis. Her Dr said she has to go for tests at the childrens hospital but I was wondering what kind of test it is and if its harmful to her in anyway?

Home Acid Reflux Remedy

Find an Acid Reflux Remedy at Home

Relief from acid reflux might be tucked away in one of your kitchen cabinets. Home remedies are very effective in dealing with acid reflux.

The first place you should look for an acid reflux remedy is at home. You might be surprised at how effective they are.

A home remedy is natural medicine on any kind of health problem you are facing. Instead of taking those strong and hazardous medicines to cure you, a home remedy is always the better option. All it needs is time and patience and you will be as you were before. As all other health problems, acid reflux is becoming common to everyone from kids to the elderly.

The main cause of acid reflux is the acidic food that causes an alkaline stomach. Alkaline food causes acidic stomach. If you are eating a lot of bread, rice, grain and etc. you may experience some of these problems. But if you balance your diet full of fruits and vegetables you will really decrease your chance of reflux problems. Remember "An apple a day keeps a doctor away." You can eat an apple daily, and it will not only keep you away from acidic reflux but also decrease your chances of any other health problem.

Here are some home remedies.

The most common home acid reflux remedy is to increase the alkaline level so that acid and alkaline level becomes equal. You can achieve this easily by eating vegetables daily to boost up your PH level. Even apple vinegar and baking soda increases the PH level.

Try to get bleached food out of your diet. Don’t eat food items such as gravies, dips, sauces, etc. Try to avoid them as much as possible.

Eat undercooked vegetables, fish healthy oils, and yogurt. You can eat a lot of cabbage and maintain your acid level. One important thing to lower down the acidic level for males is to prevent drinking alcohol.

Give up coffee. You will feel much better.

Regularly prepared mustard with a hot dog or sandwich can help you in curing acid reflux.

Eating almonds daily, especially for the pregnant females, really helps well.

Here are some recipes that can be used for an acid reflux remedy:

Recipe 1:
1. 4 inch piece of ginger root, unpeeled and scrubbed
2. 1 cup of filtered, organic, apple cider vinegar.
3. 3/4 cup of honey
4. 2 quarts of filtered water. Now mix it up well. Drink one cup in the morning and one in afternoon and see the effect.

Recipe 2:
1. Get a small bottle of water
2. Add in a teaspoon of bentonite clay
3. Shake it hard so that dissolves with water
4. Take some sips daily (Magnesium has a calming effect for the mind and to the physical muscles too).

Some final tips:

1. Always sleep on your left side, so stomach acids do not drain into your stomach.
2. Start taking good nice digestive enzymes to break down that is stuck to your small intestine.
3. Stop all reflux medications.
4. Try to eat small healthy meal
5. No alcohol, coffee or citrus.
6. Exercise, and find a homeopathic procedure that might help you out.
