How to treat your Acid Reflux - Acid Reflux / GERD Message Board

Although results vary, I have found out that I can control my nasty acid reflux by taking Liquorice root + Apple Cider Vinegar. THe root pills you find them in any health food store. It really helps calm your stomach, which in turn, controls the acid production in the stomach.
I wish I had known about that before I had the surgery to control the acid reflux. Now it is too late, since my acid reflux came back a couple years later.
Now, I have little problems with acid reflux thanks to those things I mentioned.

I, like you, tried every OTC medicine and nothing. Now, I only spend $12 a month and that is it. I do feel better.
I wish you luck.

You drink the cider vinegar? How much ?

You take 2 table spoons or 3 if needed.
But I would suggest that you try, DLG (licorice root) I think I misspelled it. ANyway, it will help you a lot. Give it a try. It does work.

I also take the DGL and apple cider vinegar and they DO work. I do two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar, a bit of honey and a quarter teaspoon of baking soda three times a day. The DGL I take two tablets, twice a day. I was so glad to read your post.

I wanted to try DGL too. But my main problem is too much mucus. I read that DGL stimulates mucus production. I don't need any more. Heh. Is this just for GERD or can it also be used for laryngopharyngeal reflux? Thanks!
