Relief at Last

I have researched this endlessly on the internet and was coming to the conclusion that there is no cure and that suffering with this would be a fact of life.  To my surprise I found that a large number of fellow sufferers have found relief at earthclinic.com.  They have been using a remedy which involves the use of Apple Cider Vinegar.  I have seen ACV listed here before and tried it without success but  looking  back I was trying to cure the symptoms and that's not intent with the remedies at Earthclinic.com.

The more popular remedy is one put forth by a memeber known as "Ted from Bankok" in which he claims that the problem people have with Acid Reflux is the result of the the foods we eat (pretty much everything) weaken the body's PH levels and that by following his method for alkalizing the body that the digestive processes will start to work the way they are supposed to.

His remedy  is 2 tblsp of Apple Cider Vinegar (preferebly Braggs ACV) with a half tsp of baking soda in 4 ounces of water, 3 times daily for 5 days then 2 days off.

I have been following this regimen for 3 months now and I cannot begin tell you how much of a Godsend this has been for me and the possitive change its had on my life.  I've  been a member of this board for a couple years and I urge eveyone who suffers with this to go and check out earthclinic.com and read all the post regarding Acid Reflux and Ted's remedies.

Good luck to all of  you

I can only relate my experiences with Reflux and the success I've enjoyed with the alalizing remedy.  My LPR/Gerd symptoms have made me miserable for a long time and my voice box  used to be so strained after a short conversation that I had a hard time reading bedtime stories to my kids.  Combined with the extreme heartburn and palpatating throat and excessive mucus and more really made for some awful times that so far appear to be behind me.

Best of luck finding what works for you.

I think the 2 days off gives your body a chance to requlate your own ph levels.  I've now been following this regimen for about 5 months and its the only thing that has given me any relief  for any lenght of time and requires no prescription drug use.  I have had some reoccurrence of symptoms but very mild in compariosn to what they used to be and can typically be gotten rid of with another dose.  I find that it also works extermeley well if after eating a large meal and you have indigestion it disappears almost instantly.  There are references that indicate that servere acid relflux may require more baking soda (up to 2 tblsp) and I have begun to increase the amount ,it says to do this slowly and bulid up as it may cause stomache upset.

Wish you the best,  I saw postive results fairly soon so you should definitely notice an improvement within a couple weeks.  Let me know how you make out
