Acid Reflux - Natural Remedies? Diet Tips?

Posted by e @epvb, Jan 17, 2018

Has anyone tried drinking aloe water to help improve acid reflux/heartburn? I am currently trying to get off of a PPI (protonix) and am looking for help with chest pressure leading to heartburn. In addition, has anyone had success with ginger for digestive issues?

Where do you live? Is there a Sprouts market there? They have lactose free yogurt, cream cheese and sour cream with the brand name Green Valley. I think the yogurt is low fat but not fat free—but not sure since I don’t have any in my fridge right now. I do have some yogurt made by Yoplait (called Q) that is made with 2% milk and is 99% lactose free. I actually thought that all lactose products were allowed to say they were lactose free if they only have that little lactose. Anyway I am getting off of my original concern about kefir and acid reflux.

@jackiem95 No Sprouts around here in NH. We got Whole Foods in our town about a year or so ago, and Trader Joe's on Friday. Green Valley is the brand that Whole Foods carries also. I will have to look for that Yoplait, I could do that if I took Lactaid too.
I took this picture yesterday to send to my future daughter-in-law who absolutely loves Trader Joe's. I told her they could now move to NH! 😉 I was in the Whole Foods parking lot, they are that close together!

Has anyone suffering with acid reflux/GERD tried drinking kefir as an alternative to Yogurt? I also have IBS so I would need to use one if the lactose free products.

Just a note that the Lifeway brand of kefir is lactose free.
