GERD… ugh.
Got a horror story and a triumph regarding that.
One of my oldest friends had GERD something terrible.
Had a bleeding ulcer from it that nearly killed her at one point.
Was put on Aciphex but it gave her terrible diarrhea with the hot shits regardless, so I suggested she try a tablespoon of balsamic vinegar after each meal. Goes down thermonuclear hot for 10 seconds or so but eases up quite fast.
It seems counter-intuitive, but vinegar is a digestive, in that it aids digestion by being an acid base, and it also tempers the acid pumps in the stomach because again, it IS an acid, so they produce less.
She was off the Aciphex inside of three weeks. Hot shits… gone.
For general stomach soothing, I put a capful of Braggs apple cider vinegar into a cup of water before bed. It makes the water spry and slightly tangy. Works a charm for my stomach - esp when I eat out.
Vinegar is the best!
