Orange Peel Extract - Acid Reflux / GERD Message Board

Has anybody tired this with success. I've been reading many good things about this in the treatment of GERD symptoms. I'm going to purchase a pack of 20. You are suppposed to take one softgel every other day for 20 days. I'll let you know how I make out. I'm also going to try the ACV as well. Taking a PPI every day for the rest of my life doesn't seem practical or healthy. These pills treat the symptoms not the cause. They are only meant for short term use so long term use of these medications can potentially be quite harmful. The last thing we want to do is shut off the pumps that produce acid in our stomach. This acid is there for a reason and aids in the overall health our bodies.

Hi, Id say I have tried the real thing.. tried orange peelings that is... I boil it with a cup of water and drink it like tea. Its good for bloating and releases alot of air up front and back. For me the tea is better as you can feel its effect directly on the stomach. specially when the warmth crept in.
