   probiotics (Acid Reflux board)

28th January 2008
I cured my GERD by taking handfuls of probiotics + FOS + Sweet whey powder (more germ food). Also took L-Glutamine and cat's claw to build my GI epithelial lining hence the protective mucous coating. It didn't take long, a few months. Enteric coated probiotics work the best.

I had GERD so bad that I often woke with total restriction and had to fight so hard for breath that I sprayed gastric juices on my bedroom walls. I still drink coffee but NO ALCOHOL, NSAIDS, STEROIDS - they strip your digestive tract's mucous lining.

Real organic apple cider vinegar does wonders, it has to have "mother". Gastic distress is caused by *too little* stomach acid, so don't take antacids or even Zantac or Pepcid, the vinegar *will* work and the bacteria are beneficial.

I was given Nexium by my doctor and threw it away, if you follow the above tips you should get better.

Hi rickiedog!,thanks for telling us your regiments, I was just wondering what
FOS stands for? Also how long did you suffered GERD? I'm currently on my third year of taking PPI's and don't see any progress...
