Apple Cider Vinegar Treatment for Acid Reflux

I don't usually write anything back but after taking the apple cider vinegar I felt I had to. I have had very very very bad acid reflux that has gotten worse over the yrs. to the point that it seems any food as soon as it is in my mouth I start with the burning burning burning. Belching....my husband says I do this all night long. I could not sleep flat any longer for I would just throw up in the middle of the night. Not to mention I have not had much sleep for I could NOT eat 4-5 hrs before going to bed! I had trouble swollowing, and have a constant cough, that I have been told could be cancer of the asophegus? When I heard that... I started taking the acv, that very night I slept "normal" and the next morning I had a good bm (which is another problem) Within a few days all my symptoms were gone and it has cured several other ailments as well not to mention loosing weight! I hate the stuff (taste) but you can't ignore the miracle it is. I just think more people should be talking about this simple remedy for sooo many things, what else could it do? I think the list goes on and on. ps. My ph level used to say "consult a physician" to now being normal. I have more energy too!

ACV worked form me. I provides instant relief from heartburn. I had reflux for over a year. I had an endoscopy done a year and a half ago revealing a scared esophogus. I was put on the purple pill for 3 months. When I cam of the pill, wow what rebound. Eventually I read about ACV and tried it. IT DID WORK! Why are there not clinical trial being done on this? There is enough anecdotal evidence this works. I think the reason there are no clinical trials being done is that they are expensive and no one will make any money if ACV if scientifically proven to work.

I was woken at 3am with very bad acid reflux, found this website and thought I'd try ACV as a cure. It worked, a little hard to take as it went down - maybe dilute next time - but really did make the burning pain go away.

I'had suffered with acid reflux last year about this time. I had used all types of antacids and lastly the "purple pill". They didn't work out for me. I was searching for the remedy and came across this website. I have tried apple cider vinegar for ten days and my acid reflux symptoms were gone. But again this April, i felt like acid reflux symptoms and used ACV for around two weeks. Now i feel relieved from reflux symptoms. I would strongly recommend the use of apple cider vinegar before trying any other pills. Lately, i have been skipping meals due to work load. this could also be one of the reasons of acid reflux.

I have tried two tbls of ACV, with an half tbls of cayenne pepper in a half of cup of hot natural spring water every night before bed for my Acid reflux and this remedy works wonderful. i have tried other over the counters prescriptions and my Doctors way and nothing seems to calm it down until now. At first my taste buds had to get use to it, it does gives you an tingling feeling on your tongue and down your throat, but the results is worth it.

I have been on the "purple pill" for the last 11 years. Until 3 months ago when I read about ACV on this website. I bought the Apple Cider Vinegar and have been off the purple pill ever since. I started taking it 3x/day and am now down to a convient two. The cost is nill compared to my previous route and I am sure my digestive system is thanking me. I take it with water and use a straw as this is easier on the teeth. NO REFLUX!!!!

I obtained acid reflux after eating some really spicy food in February of 2007. Here it is May of 2007 and I still have acid reflux and wake up at least once a night. My dad had recommended the apple cider vinegar cure and I thought he was crazy. Since it is pickled, which I was told to stay away from, I was scared to try it. I tried it today and my acid reflux has stopped burning me. Please note, that I have not had releif since this acid reflux occured. As of last week, I also found out that apples make me feel better, so I am eating apples too. In regards to drinking I drink Gatorade and Water, but wish there were other things I could drink. Thanks to this website...I didn't think of "apple juice." That's great! If anyone else knows of any other beverage that is safe...please let me know.

Results of use of ACV: I began to take it after suffering some bouts with acid reflux, I have yet to have another bout since taking it months ago. I was also experiencing problems with allergies such as congestion and runny nose. All of the symptoms are gone. For the pas three years my blood pressure readings had been high like 158/94. My last very recent physical almost floored my physician when it read 128/68. I am convinced.

This is a follow up of my march feed back. My Ascid Reflux, IS GONE. But have had Heart burns many times, not long after I eat. I tryed using only 1/4 tsp B S but this was worse, Had been taking my AVC drinks about 2 hrs before each meal. I changed back to 1/2 tsp of baking soda, and to taking the ACV 1 hour after Eating. good by heart burn. I know that we all have differnt systems, and this works best for me, Oh yes I have started using Honey in the morning on my toast. I Hope each of you will find the best way for you, to stop the Heart Burn Thank you very much, for Having this Web Site, your help, and the Feed backs, from so many others, who are also a great help to all of us, with the same problems.

Apple cider vinager has reduced my acid reflux and the positive proof of killing all of the bacteria in my bladder came from a lab test when I thought I had a prostate infection. The doctor looked at the results and said my urine was so remarkably clean, (without any bacteria) she did not know what I had. Therefore, she sent to urology and it was discovered I had too much acid in my system. Much of it was too much coffee, orange juice and grape juice plus ACV. When cutting back on too much juice, my prostate symtoms were gone in a few days, but the proof of " no bacteria in my bladder" was reason enough to let others know the benefits of AVC. All bladders have ... cells floating around and that causes bladder and kidney infections. AVC can prevent that. DJS

I'have had Acid Reflux for several years. I took all the prescription drugs for it. They worked for a while. My Niece told me to take apple cider vinegar. Well I tried the liquid out of the bottle and I think that was worse than the A.R.! Well a trip to the health foods store made me very happy! Apple cider vinegar tablets! They are a must! I can control my A.R. if I watch what I eat and quantity. I do take a lot of Advil for my back problem. I think I will stop that and see what happens. I am sure the apple cider vinegar helped me! I take it every day, and if I'm careful of what I eat, I don't have a problem. Try it- you have nothing to loose except Acid Reflux!

I have a infant who has horrible acid reflux and traditional medicine is not working. I have tried the acv and placed a small amount into the bottle with the formula and it seems to work great. Has anyone else ever tried this? It works in adults but I have not read anything about babies. Any thoughts? melissa in texas

Hi, My father-in-law has been suffering from serious stomach problems for as long as I can remember. He took prescriptions that were very strong and costly. He just didn't think their was anything left to try. I suggested he try apple cider vinegar capsules according to directions on the container. A while later he is raving about how well he feels and how all of his prescriptions for various health problems are put aside. I urge people with stomach, intestinal and high blood pressure problems to try acv, they won't regret it. God bless.

Seven days ago I was ready to put a gun to my head. I was continuously waking up, had difficulty breathing and swallowing. My self diagnosis search led me to this web site. I started taking two tablespoons of' ACV and a quarter teaspoon of baking soda in about 4 ounces of apple juice.It actually tasted pretty good. Some relief was almost immediate, but one week later I am thrilled to report 2 consecutive good nights sleeps of about 7 hours. This is the best I have slept in two months as the throat problems caused me to snore badly when I could get to sleep. My wife has welcomed me back from the guest room, which I am also thrilled about. I have osteoarthritis which I WAS using a combination of CELEBREX (4 OR SO A MONTH) and IBUPROPHEN(whenever I wanted)I would get up in the morning and enjoy 6 or 7 cups of coffee on an empty stomach, then eat and have 3 or 4 diet sodas during the rest of the day. BAD BAD BAD. So I stopped the coffee and sodas, started taking B complex, large doses of Vitamin c, L Glutamine and traded the coffee for herbal teas, and the sodas for juice. NO MORE IBUPROFEN Tylenol only if I need it. Bottom line: In a week I feel totally different, much much better actually. THANK GOD for this web site. I wish you luck if you have a similar situation to mine.

I had two (2)strokes within the pass seven years. I use to take herbs but life happens and I forgot. when I start taking ACV my blood pressure has been averaging 190/185.after I started taking ACV, within three week my blood pressure has been 110/64 for the pass three months. this is without me taking all the meds the doctor had given me. I have two blood pressure kit that I use constanly, so I won't have any surprises.

I also had acid reflux , and it was so bad that I couldn't sleep no more than three or more hours at night , setting up.

Thank God for ACV. The meds that I was give, stop acid from being produce in my stomach, which kept the food from digesting which caused constipation. I took ACV. and slept like a log and have been taking it for the past few months. WHAT I TOOK MAY BE MAY NOT WORK FOR YOU BECAUSE EVERYBODY BODY IS DIFFERENT, YOU HAVE TO SEE WHAT WORKS FOR YOU, AND THEN YOU'LL HAVE THE GOOD RESULTS. IT TRULY IS THE BEST THING YET!
