I just eat lots of very spicy food and lots of fiber and stay away from all meds, including aspirin. Easier.

Untreated acid reflux can lead to Barrett’s esophagus, which is pre-cancerous. I’ve had Barrett’s esophagus for many years, but it hasn’t advanced because I take medication twice a day.

Yeah, I've had IBD for 15 years or so; it originally manifested itself with frequent bouts of diverticulitis which is a painful colon inflammation where food particles get lodged in little pockets in your intestines called diverticuli.

I still have to watch my diet and what I eat so as not to inflame my intestines.

My VA doc has me on 2X 20 mg/daily Omeprazole and nightly intakes of an osmotic laxative which has me sitting on the toilet a lot in the morning but has kept me free of more painful diverticulitis bouts thankfully.

Not fun getting old, I'm 70, got a clean colonoscopy procedure 2 years ago and am just living with the ailment.

It could be worse.

So.when you all say no wheat, is it just the gluten or no wheat period? Does gluten free stuff get me to where I want to be? I swear gluten free stuff is becoming better tasting than the regular. First time in my life that something taste better than the unatural, synthetic, boxed, packaged, non fresh,processed food that my body has craved from the day I was born!
