RE: Dealing with Acid Reflux on the Cheap
An interesting tale! It was Raniditine? I have been taking it for perhaps 4 years and never felt the need to increase the dosage.
There have been nights when it hasn't worked and I have muttered 'faulty tablet' and taken a second one with a gulp of milk.. and that fixed it.
Going veggie could work but I'm far too carnivorous for that. I do know my diet affects it and it can get worse depending on what I'm eating.
Baking Soda tends to be powder. We do have some, how do you ingest it.. mixed with milk or something?
How about Apple Cider Vinegar (with Mother)?
Great advice, and thanks for the comment!
Yes, Ranitidine since the age of 13-15.
Didn't need to increase it until my early 20's, then it was progressive. (was also a heavy alcoholic at the start of my 20s, another aspect to consider.)
I'm sure there are different levels of acid reflux though, some to the point where surgery might be needed. I suspect I am in that class.
The baking soda I mix with hot water, and it's probably more baking soda than I should be ingesting. I go through a box of baking soda a month. It's not good, but I have a difficult time trusting the medical industry after what I went through, and not just with heartburn reducers. Misdiagnosing of mental health disorders, suicidal after testing out different anti-depressants. I'm very skeptical at this point.
Lol, me too, but I'll tell ya... much less issues with acid reflux during the time I was vegetarian.
I've never tried this remedy. I will look into it.
My pleasure @slobberchops, thank you for your response.

Ouch, beer doesn't help at all. Certain beers I can drink at all.
I have some in the house, can't find it.. damn. Just took a glass of that Cider Vinegar.. tastes horrible!
