Take the Carmel flavor gel at night. Tastes so much better than gaviscon advance /aniseed.Though I have alternated them at times (different months ) like taste of reflux gourmet better. I also just started (because of someone’s suggestion from here) (thank u),trying some slippery elm drops in my alkaline water. I sip the water all day to keep pepsin at bay. I watch carefully what I eat , (hard to figure out my triggers) how much (1/2 of what I used to eat )and when , (3-4 hours before bed.)Also, Chewing food and eating slowly is important.. I tried it all. Meds,antacids don’t agree with me and have osteoporosis so not good for the bones.I have lpr,( resp. Reflux),silent reflux. I had hiatal hernia repair and partial fundplication 15 months ago. Wrap is intact but dr thinks it loosed a bit hence some reflux has returned at times and surgeon suggested alginate to help.Walking and any stress release also helps. Hope this helps.thanks so much for all ur suggestions.💕🤸‍♂️
