Hi gilly girl, I do have gerd, maybe almost 2 years, recently find my own finding and research, as and asian we do like hot and spicy food, and sour too. I remember I do really love that kind of food. That time I was still very young , 15 to 29 yrs. old. But as we grew older as now I'm 46, the efect came. I've gone tru a lot of examination, even endoscopy and also anuscopic (Hope I said it right) they find nothing of any harmful thing. Then I was told that i have GERD, the doctor told me million of people have it. I was advise to change my lifestyle, less spicy food, no coffee,alcohol bla..bla... I took almost any medication people and Dr. recomended to me. Nothing change, only short period. It happen again, Reflux and heart burn. Finally I meet a lady, she is a Pharmacy, she recomended me PROBIOTIC , it either in capsule or liquid form. Wallah after 3 months no more attck. But not just that, I took also guarana, one of my friend recomended me, it getting better and better, I can take spicy food again, and drink what ever I like. Why dont you try it, find out at the pharmacy near your place. If you want me to help buying for you email at
