How to Cure Acid Reflux Disease Naturally Posted: 07-09-07 03:24am
Hi,
My brother's girlfriend works in a health
food and herb store, she's told me that
deglycyrrhizinated licorice (or licorice
root...in supplement form) can be used to
help relax the stomach.
Basically what she said was that it acts
as a natural stomach coater, it also helps
with digestion and heartburn (and
inflammed muscles for those who have nasty
chest and back pains) to ease that icky
burning up the esophagus.
If you're going to try it, make sureee and
i can't stress it enough that it's
Deglycyrrhizinated licorice, because if
it's glycyrrhizinated then it may give u
high blood pressure.
So far it seems to relax my GERD quite a
bit, it may not be a complete solution to
medication but it's worth a try.
Anyway, take care.

Yes, licorice is good medicine.
So is ginger, by the way.

Apples are a great natural cure Posted: 02-12-08 12:54pm
Another great natural cure is apples and
similarly, apple cider vinegar. The great
thing about apples is they're inexpensive,
available at every corner market and they
do wonders for your overall health. Like
the saying goes, "an apple a day keeps the
doctor away."

Probiotics is also a great natural way to
help acid reflux. It also helps other
things like your digestive system and
stuff. You can buy them at herb and
vitamin stores.
