on a side note related to your GERD, start reading up on LOW stomach acid, not high. The MD’s are lying to people and putting them on antiacids when in fact, 99% of the cause for heartburn and GERD is low stomach acid. I’ll be glad to expand on it for you. It will make a ton of sense once you understand what’s REALLY going on.
TRUE. The 'heart-burn' is smoke. The smoke comes from inefficient burning. It's like a campfire that is just smoldering, not burning.
The best and easiest remedy for 'heartburn' is to drink a small cup of vinegar (more acid). This will help the stomach digest(burn) the food properly (most efficient use of the energy in the food) and minimize the smoke (wasted energy).
I know about that.
Never take antacids.
Just makes it worse.
A drink of water stops it.
Didn’t have any on me in Autozone, though.
