Posted By Earthmomma (Charlottetown, Pei ) on 08/15/2017

Hey everyone, my daughter is four years old and has had zantac perscribed to her since she was 3 months old she is now fat .

We have been back in forth to clinics family doctor, no results just upping the dose and it has done nothing she complains constantly even when she has her medicine so I decided too try and take her off it for a few days am looking for something natural to try ...what would anyone recommend I start with for her at this age?

You could try aloe vera juice. You can buy it by the gallon. Just add 1 teaspoon to a small amount of water and drink after every meal. That always helps me. Or make vinegar tea, hot or cold and add 1 teaspon of apple cider vinegar to a glass of tea add sweetener and always add 1/8 teaspoon of baking soda, that really cuts the taste of the vinegar, sounds awful but its kinda tangy. My 6 year old niece loved it for any stomach issues.
