Reflux Gourmet has helped my LPR tremendously. All natural product.

If you want a natural get with a functional med person. I’m using HCl to increase gastric acid with good results. I know it sounds counterintuitive but it’s not. Consider Reflux Gourmet. It’s spendy but good and all natural. Use it at night and elevate the head of the bed.

I've been on protonx 40mg. 22y's. Pepcid complet w. Got off 8 days ago. Trying to regulate w diet. Fish, chicken, turkey. Fresh fruits & veggies. Can veggies. I know our diet is cutting so much that we enjoy. It has to be looked at as our greatest resolution. Cheat one a week & you'll burn throat & intestines.

It’s expensive so I use usually only at night unless I’m eating foos I think might cause reflux at other meals. More effective I’ve noticed if I that it that way. Probably with each meal is optimal. The gum is great as chewing gum increases your stomach acid. Contract to popular belief we need to increase our stomach acid as we get older. Again, a good functional medicine practitioner should be able to help.

I had esophageal ablation surgery three months ago. They put me on 2 doses of omezprazole, 40mg. After the tissue healed, I had no reflux or heartburn. Until last night. I had what you are calling silent reflux. We are on a long drive and I may have overdone it with some coffee.

Coffee is acidic and has caffeine which loosens the muscle which allows acid to flow back up the esophagus. You can buy low acid coffee like healthwise off Amazon. It comes in decaf too.

Have you heard of Xylimelts? They are tiny discs that you place between cheek and gum at night to stimulate your salivary glands. I am 70 year old female and have suffered with dry mouth and throat for years. I believe this lack of saliva contributed greatly to my diagnosis of LPR last month. Although I mentioned the constant dry mouth and throat to several doctors over thevyears, I got nothing but the 'hmmm' response. Finally I mentioned it to my dentist's assistant during a routine check up. She gave me a sample pack of Xylimelts. I have never used the term 'life-changing' but that's what these little discs have been. I used to wake up 2-3 times a night with a choking sensation and struggling to swallow. Since using these I have not had that problem even once- and it's been two months. I wish I had found these years ago as I think (and am doing research to support this) that the lack of saliva allowed the acid, bile salts, and other 'gastric juices' to flow upward to my esophagus. If you have awakened in the night with that 'choking' sensation, I strongly recommend you try these. About $8 over the counter (I went to CVS) or a little more online for a pack of 40. Way cheaper than all the PPIs, etc with no side effects. There is so much conflicting information about LPR I had to mention this. It has not been a cure but may have been preventative and has at least Xylimelts? They are tiny discs that you place between cheek and gum at night to stimulate your salivary glands.

I drink a glass of alkaline water each evening and when it gets bad I take Synogut capsules.
