What is the natural treatment for acid reflux (Gastroesophageal reflux disease)?

"Drink about 1 gallon of filtered water daily. Normally, you should try to drink enough water each day to keep your urine a light yellow shade. However, when you suffer from acid reflux, more water may be necessary to dilute the acid and normalize the pH in your stomach.

Do not eat within 3 hours of bedtime. This allows your stomach to empty and acid production to decrease. If you don't eat, your body isn't making acid to digest the food.

Do not lying down right after eating at any time of day.

Elevate the head of your bed 6 inches with blocks. Gravity helps prevent reflux.

Avoid eating large meals. Eating a lot of food at one time increases the amount of acid needed to digest it.

Eat smaller, more frequent meals throughout the day.

Avoid fatty or greasy foods, chocolate, caffeine, mints or mint-flavored foods, spicy foods, citrus, and tomato-based foods.

Avoid alcohol. Alcohol increases the likelihood that acid from your stomach will back up.

Stop smoking. Smoking weakens the lower esophageal sphincter and increases reflux.

Lose excess weight. Overweight and obese people are much more likely to have bothersome reflux than people of healthy weight.

Stand upright or sitting up straight, maintains good posture. This helps food and acid pass through the stomach instead of backing up into the esophagus.

Talk to your health care provider about taking over-the-counter pain relievers such as aspirin, ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin), or medicines for osteoporosis. These can aggravate reflux in some people.

The methods above, along with high doses of quality probiotics go a long way toward restoring normal stomach function for most people. Cevan International's Digestive Health Complementary Therapy provides the comprehensive nutritional defense your digestive tract needs in order to properly digest food and remain healthy.

This book is probably the most informative and practical guide on the subject of acid reflux and heartburn that I have ever read https://tr.im/acidrefluxremedies

I was prescribed Lansoprazole which was brilliant but after two years of aching joints, extreme muscle pain which the doc gave me cortisone jags for, with some research I discovered the drug Lansoprazole was causing these rare side effects but it was I who diagnosed it NOT my doctor, I came off the drug 2 months ago, changed my diet and discovered just eating an apple stops any acid reflux, I eat an apple before bed, brilliant no acid, any time I feel the slightest sign of reflux I simply eat an apple. Apple juice is not that good nor is anything else I have tried including honey at stopping reflux.

1. Eat slowly, and don't overeat. Eating slowly will keep you from overeating, because your brain will register fullness before you've wolfed down more food than you need.

2. Use proper food combining: Do not eat proteins and carbohydrates in the same meal.

Get the book "Fit for Life" on proper food combining.

Eating several foods together encourages the secretion of different digestive fluids that combat each other.

Drugs often suppress digestion and therefore negatively influence your overall health.

Also, some of the drugs simply numb your experience of the reflux while still allowing acid to eat up your esophagus.

Use proper food combining and resist overeating for a lasting improvement.

Drugs won't cure it but they will relieve the symptoms.

I tried many remedies. Some worked better than others. Here are some that helped me. If I watch my diet and weight, my reflux rarely flairs up.

Eat a piece of orange peel. Organic is preferred -wash it well and cut a piece about the size of a thumb nail. Chew it well, until it's mush and then swallow. This gives me immediate relief. Take as often as needed.

Drink apple cider vinegar- organic of course- mixed with a little raw honey. A couple teaspoons of the vinegar. Rinse your mouth with water after- to protect your teeth.

Red Delicious apples

My father had this frequently He also died of stage 3 colon cancer something every one in my family has and will get checked for at age 40. As for reflux disorder drinking alcohol is a big factor, don't lay down with food in your stomach. smoking?.. don't help. As for any anti acids forget it, they're for symptoms not the problem.

And try Lifeway Kifer culture drink.It's said to bring back the balance of microbes that should be in your stomach for proper digestion.
