@helenkiwi62 I just read up on Reflux Raft as I thought this would be a good alternative to PPIs. However, one of the ingredients is a form of licorice ingredient. The last couple of times that I have had licorice, and that includes anise cookies, I reacted to the licorice. I get leg cramps. I used to be able to eat licorice with no issues whatsoever, but the last two times I have had licorice in any form, I have developed leg cramps. I know that licorice can cause this. After the first time I had a cramping problem, I tried to think of what it was that I may have ingested or done to cause those cramps. I remembered I had eaten licorice candy. When I read up on licorice, this is one of the things that can develop, cramping. So I guess that, unfortunately, I would be unable to use Reflux Raft. Has anyone had issues using Reflux Raft? If it’s not one thing it’s another! You think you have found a good alternative and then poof, no you haven’t

@toni4501 Your reaction to licorice just goes to show us again that we are all different.
What one persons genes and physical make is ..... is what allows us to do or eat etc. ......and therefore how we will live our lives.
Too much sodium for me causes muscle pain in my lower back or leg cramps/charlie horse cramps and the reason I make sure I eat bananas and/or take a potassium tablet when I need it.
