Did you know that millions of people suffer from acid reflux every day?
This is a common complaint among many of our clients, along with their inability to lose weight and improve their health.
I receive an on-line newsletter from Gluten Free Works and it had a good article, “Problems with Acid Reducers and Acid Reflux Fixes that Work” by John Libonati. The article states, In 2006, over 100 million prescriptions for proton pump inhibitors (acid reflux drugs) were filled at a cost of $13.6 billion. It is true that acid reflux drugs definitely help in the short term. They reduce acid.”
The goes on further goes to say that although the acid and symptoms of heartburn are reduced, there is a high likelihood of calcium absorption problems, vitamin B12 deficiency and related neurological issues.

I have found that although the acid is reduced with acid reflux drugs, most people still have digestive issues, because like most medical drugs, They Do Not Solve the Problem but Just Mask the Symptoms. Masking symptoms when it comes to your digestion will lead to devastating consequences down the line. I am sure we have all heard that food gives us energy…well, if you can’t properly digest the food and absorb the nutrients you will be tired, bloated, gassy, constipated, etc.
Check out the remedies in the article. I recommend Braggs Raw Apple Cider Vinegar to almost everyone to improve the digestive process. It is an economical and simple remedy that can prevent a complex set of problems. There are also many other tips that can help prevent acid reflux and improve digestion.
