Interesting!..............

I have been dealing with a lot of acid reflux. At the same time I have cronic UTI infections. Thus I have been drinking about a cup a day of un-sugared, not from concentrate, pure cranberry juice from Trader Joe's Market. I am having less reflux now and feel better. The cranberry juice is quite bitter...but I've adjusted to that and now enjoy it with my breakfast.

how much sugar is in the trader joe’s cranberry juice?

(would stevia negate the acid reflux benefits?)

there are other benefits to cranberry juice.

You could try D-mannose:

GERD, indigestion, etc., as caused by LOW stomach acid, not high (contrary to the geniuses in the medical community), so taking bitters, HCL, etc., will be of great benefit to those that have these issues.

UTI’s can also be caused by low stomach acid because your ‘flora’ is out of balance whereas good stomach acid kills bad bacteria

“cronic UTI infections.”

I take D-mannose every day — 2 when I get up, 1 before bed. Have gone from 3-4 UTIs / yr. to maybe 1, if that often.
