SEEMS THIS MIGHT BE THE RIGHT REMEDY FOR ACID REFLUX. I AM NOT DOING AS MUCH BELCHING AS I DID BEFORE. HOW LONG WOULD IT TAKE TO COMPLETLY CURE ME?

I suffer from severe acid reflux. I've tried yogurt - to no avail. You mentioned taking Advil, Naproxen, and Bextra for pain. Please be aware these types of OTC meds can, over time, weaken your lower esophageal sphincter (LES) valve which will then allow acid to enter your unprotected esophagus. The list of these OTC drugs is long. Aleve and Naproxen are just 2 of very common OTC drugs that can and do cause permanent weakening of the LES. Most doctors will not tell you this unless you look them straight in the eye and ask them. Here's the scoop: The lower esophagus has a mucus coating which contains a natural acid neutralizer that protects the lower esophagus from small amounts of acid that may from time to time leak through the LES valve. Aleve, Naproxen and a number of other OTC drugs prevent that protective mucus from forming, thereby allowing acid to burn the esophagus. Repeated burning can lead to Barrett's Esophagus which can lead to cancer. Esophagus cancer is now the #2 cancer in the United States. Which brings me back to Acid Reflux: It is vary dangerous and not to be taken lightly. Thanks goodness for this website and for those who use it in an effort to cure themselves and help others.

Elevating the head of the bed 2" (use 2 pieces scrap 2"x6' board to elevate head of bed) cures acid reflux when you awaken in the morning. Doesn't work all day but its good for a nice part of the morning when you first wake up.

Hi Thanks for the details. Can I ask if you also had silent reflux (LPR)? It seems like your solutions are more for heartburn? Thanks

I have a great respect for Ted and his opinions that he posts. After all they influenced what I took while having stage 4 lung cancer and now I am free of it. On the subject of progesterone, I don't think he had the opportunity to review the latest research on the use of progesterone on cancer. Researchers have found that there are 2 genes that are affected by progesterone. One is the BCL2 gene and the other is the P53 gene. Research has shown that natural progesterone affects one of these genes and synthetic progesterone affects the other and shows that there is a difference between the two. The BCL2 gene helps the cancer and the P53 gene shuts down the cancer. Here is an article that covers this; Https://progesterone.com/disease-index/cancer/breast-cancer/ I have also read elsewhere that vitamin D3 works with the natural progesterone to make it more effective. After reading the above article, the question comes to my mind, what creams have the natural progesterone that will promote the P53 gene. There are lots of these creams out there. All that you have to do is go to amazon.com and do a search for progesterone cream and you will see lots of them and they all say they have natural progesterone in them but which ones actually works? I have a friend that is afflicted with breast-cancer and I would like to know what will work for here. If anyone knows out there please let me know. I believe that a good strategy to make the breast-cancer go away would include progesterone cream. I would be grateful to anyone for a replay. Thank you

I use Now progesertone cream to balance my hormones and I can see a difference and my hormone blood levels normalized so I believe this product works. I have it on subscription so I am never without it!
