"My dentist’s wife says drinking apple cider vinegar takes care of a if reflex."

Maybe on her it does, vinegar has acetic acid. It never worked for me. The one thing I discovered that does help with acid reflux is eating a banana. Even though I take two prescribed acid reflux pills a day, a half-hour before meals, there are times when something I ate for supper will decide to remind me much later, that I ate it. If I burp, and I notice an acidy taste, I'll eat a banana, and that will stop it from getting any worse. I also had my gall bladder removed back in 2015, and that causes issues, because the bile that was stored in it, ends up in your stomach. I only eat twice a day, and I eat very little. My digestive system seems to be pretty slow. I can eat something at 6 or 7 p.m., and wake up at 5 in the morning, and still be tasting it when I burp. I don't think that's normal, and will be discussing it when I head to the Gastroenterologist's office later this month.
