Then he discovered something called hydrochloric acid, and once he started taking it, everything changed.

It’s true. It worked for me over 10 years ago.
Read a book (I’ll see if I can try to find the title, if anyone is interested) that has been around for a while about how stomach acid is actually a good thing. For a month I took enzymes before eating, HCL during meals, L-Glutamine, and a few other supplements, and didn’t have a bout of reflux for years after.
Modern medicine is about repeat customers by treating symptoms and not curing anything.
For athlete’s foot that I had, I found soaking my feet in vinegar and using Vick’s vapor rub did a lot more good for it than any medication on the market.
“Acute oral exposure may cause corrosion of the mucous membranes, esophagus, and stomach and dermal contact may produce severe burns, ulceration, and scarring in humans.”
Better make sure it’s diluted!
“The medical industry wants you to believe heartburn is caused by too much acid.
Senator Johnson discovered the opposite—the real issue was too little.”
So burping up acid can be cured by drinking more acid??????
Pickle juice.
I was at the local 24 hour CVS the other day, it's the one that most in the community use for prescription fills because it's 24/7. They probably had a few hundred bags ready for pickup, I'd guess they fill hundreds of thousands of orders DAILY. I can't even imagine the dollars involved at this ONE store in upstate NY.
Can’t disagree with this enough. Baking soda and water for me.
You need HCL to break down your food...

Oh my goodness. Hydrochloric acid is a strong acid, and is quite dangerous. It depends on the concentration, but ingesting even a small amount of it would usually cause considerable internal damage.
As was noted later in the article, Johnson took betaine HCl (betaine hydrochloride) - a very different substance.
Both the author and the editor are irresponsible for not making that clear from the very start.
My late father used vinegar.
Statins can cause muscle deterioration.
Statins are a dangerous fraud. Always have been.
Just stop eating carbs. Cured me.
A doctor who is a relative was all over me about statins about 12 years ago, my Cholesterol was about 215. I said, “I’ll tell my wife to adjust my diet, no statins for me.” He was mad. 12 months later I was 185, never been a problem since.

Trimethylglycine supplementation decreases the amount of adipose tissue in pigs, and new research on human subjects has shown a statistically significant effect on body fat reduction when used in conjunction with a low calorie diet.[17] The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved betaine trimethylglycine (also known by the brand name Cystadane) for the treatment of homocystinuria, a disease caused by abnormally high homocysteine levels at birth.[22] Trimethylglycine is also used as the hydrochloride salt (marketed as betaine hydrochloride or betaine HCl). Betaine hydrochloride was sold over-the-counter (OTC) as a purported gastric aid in the United States. US Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Section 310.540, which became effective in November 1993, banned the marketing of betaine hydrochloride as a digestive aid due to insufficient evidence to classify it as "generally recognized as safe and effective" for that specified use.[23]
A glass of water kills any heartburn I get.
Needs to be primaried ASAP!
That’s exactly right. Indigestion and GERD are from LOW stomach acid, not high. Supplement with stomach acid, which is HCL and you’ll get great relief.
Main stream propaganda will say he’s telling people to drink acid, like they did with Trump and bleach.
