Natural Cures For Acid Reflux Disease
Natural remedies for acid reflux aren?t hidden in some ancient Tibetan Monastery far atop the Himalayan Mountains. It?s right here at your local Farmer?s Market.
For thousands of years these natural remedies for acid reflux, heartburn and acid indigestion have been passed down generation to generation.
That?s what people do, they live, they learn and they pass the good, time-tested information down to their children and grandchildren, it?s only natural.
That?s what a natural remedy is. There is more science, more evidence and credibility in a natural acid reflux remedy passed down from your grandparents than all the pharmaceutical research spending in the world could match.
This whole pharmacopeia, drug based, medical culture of death we live witness to these days is an abomination. It?s something that has good roots, but is a rotten branch that no longer bears any sweet fruit. The branch of medicine called the Western Medical Practice has perverted the wisdom of the ages.
Frankly, there are uses for a lot of these modern medical developments, however, when people are led to believe that there are no alternatives, they miss out on gentler, less expensive and more effective natural remedies.
Western medicine can?t cure your acid reflux, but a natural remedy can. The thing that angers these big corporations like the pharmaceutical cartel is that THEY can?t patent an apple.
From what I?ve seen, if Big Pharma can make apples illegal without a prescription, just to keep you on antacids which will never cure your acid reflux, they will.
Sounds preposterous, but I?m telling you it?s truer than you think.
Codex Alimentarious is one example where the World Government, through the disguise of humanitarian policies, is trying to control your food and medicine. If they have their way all your natural acid reflux remedies will be banned.
More than 106,000 people die from properly administered drugs every year in America . . . no one dies from natural remedies. Yet the agencies that control our scientists and doctors want everything that cures, treats and prevents dis-ease to be tested as a drug and licensed as a drug.
Acid reflux is a symptom of an underlying imbalance, usually triggered from the Standard American Diet (SAD), which they claim is a balanced diet. Fact is, it is balanced only to serve Big Food, Big Agri and Big Chem and crush the small family owned co-ops, farms and industries that made America great in the first place.
Your antacids are a fake product manufactured by corporate opportunists that would ban free information sources like this blog and . . . they will if you let them.
The tobacco companies are held responsible for the harm they caused, while generating billions of dollars of profit. So why no hold Big Pharma or other global opportunists responsible when they make bogus and harmful products? Why not hold antacid companies liable for lying to the public and selling a product for acid reflux that makes acid reflux worse?
The current policies enforced against natural remedies for acid reflux declare that ?Only drugs can cure, prevent and treat.? Why then don?t drugs cure, treat and prevent anything???
Bottom line, no one in this country can sell you a natural remedy for acid reflux, only because someone ?labeled? acid reflux as a dis-ease. Therefore making it illegal for anyone to help cure you, treat you or help you prevent acid reflux with a natural remedy and make any money doing so.
That?s why I?m telling you this, so you can research your own natural cures, treatments and preventative remedies for acid reflux.
You are living in the Chemical Dark Ages. I hope you cross over and help support nutritional literacy by joining the Self-Health Care Revolution and help keep America great!

Acid Reflux And Diet
Acid reflux begins and ends with your diet.
The Standard American Diet (SAD) is partly to blame for the pandemic of the degenerative health issues that plague our country.
People have been misled to believe if they eat a balanced diet that everything will be alright. On top of that, the whole SAD industry of food delivers the final death blow with chemicals and toxic additives.
The mass manufacturing of processed foods that make up the Standard American Diet (SAD) is slowly deteriorating the health of people, young and old.
If you just consider the US Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) is based on what is nutritionally acceptable for rodents, human health and wisdom has a long way to go.
Leading scientists agree that calorie restriction can help significantly increase lifespan and overall health.
Calorie restriction is NOT a balanced diet.
Degenerative dis-eases like acid reflux are triggered from eating that stereotypical balanced diet.
Americans are literally starving from a nutritional deficiency, even though they consume more food stuff than any other nation. The empty SAD calories are missing the minerals, nutrients and cofactors because of poor farming practices, sterile soils and over processing.
Where there was once abundance there is now less than nothing. What is less than nothing? The answer is anything negative or harmful to your health. ?Nothing? would be neutral, but the so-called food in America is poisonous, worse than nothing would be.
America?s food is riddled with excito-toxins like aspartame and monosodium glutamate and saturated with refined oils that are toxic, like canola oil and corn oil, which trigger inflammation and add to toxicity levels. Not to mention artificial flavors, dyes and preservatives.
Acid reflux is a dis-ease caused from chronic deficiencies, namely ?ionic? minerals, enzymes and plant based nutrients. If your cells are deprived, your organs will be weak and if your organs are weak your immune system will be vulnerable to being over burdened.
Your acid reflux is a result of poor diet.
The first step to improving your health and reversing your acid reflux is to take on an ?imbalanced? diet. You need to stop eating the wrong foods, cut them out of your diet completely. This means calorie restriction, which is all about eating only enough of the good foods to strengthen your mind/body energy levels.
Over eating robs you of energy, especially when you?re eating unhealthy foods that are poisonous to your cells, organs and well being.
Eat an unbalanced diet that is made only of healthy foods rich in plant based proteins, beneficial fats and natural ?ionic? minerals.

Treatments that block or even ignore symptoms of acid reflux can end up inflaming a simple case of heartburn to fully fledged throat cancer, unless your careful.
When treatments for acid reflux fail the acid reflux continues to force its way passed your lower esophageal sphincter, eventually allowing the sensitive throat lining to be scarred from stomach acid.
This scarring can lead to your throat cells mutating into cells resembling your stomach cells. This is a desperate act of your body’s built-in intelligence to try and adapt to a caustic situation in order to prolong life.
There conventional treatments for acid reflux merely cover-up the symptoms, yet do nothing to remove the root cause of your acid reflux.
So be careful in selecting any so-called treatments and if you chose any of the conventional acid reflux treatments be sure to always get a second and third opinion. You do not want to get stuck taking any treatment for any extended length of time.
Treatments are not cures and are only useful for short periods of time.
Acid reflux treatments typically start with sodium bicarbonate and water and when the antacid formulas leave you wanting more relief you can up-grade to a more dangerous treatment called proton-pump inhibitors. These treatments are powerful chemical ?inhibitors that block your body’s ability to make stomach acid. In a sense you’ve declared chemical war against the most intelligent biological system in the world, your body’s automatic healing system.
(Oh, by the way, you better be absolutely sure you don’t already suffer from a stomach acid deficiency- ask your doctor to double, triple check first.)
This can have dire consequences if you don’t have a compassionate and nutritionally educated health care practitioner working to get you off conventional acid reflux treatments a.s.a.p.
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are notorious for causing acid rebound, which is a medical condition created entirely from these by man-made “treatment’ drugs.
Acid rebounds are symptoms of proton pump inhibitor addiction.
Other treatments are relative to the severity of your acid reflux symptoms and generally depend on how long you’ve been taking antacids and proton pump inhibitors (PPIs).
Hiatal hernia is associated with chronic acid reflux and some of the treatments are complicated surgical procedures. Another stage of dis-ease caused from ignoring the signs of acid reflux is gastro-esophageal reflux disease. This is a life threatening health concern that is treated with drugs simply because medically speaking, they claim there is no cure.
Medically speaking, means according to conventional, Western practice. You could say conventional medicine is biased toward treatment and against curing. There are natural remedies, which are un-patentable because they are “natural,” but have been proven to be very effective at reversing acid reflux and even gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).
Why opt for failed treatments when there is a natural cure waiting for you to discover?
When gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD) is treated rather than cured, cancer can be the result. Treatments for throat cancer are harsh and are the most dangerous of all the treatments.
Certainly prevention is the best and only real treatment for acid reflux, GERD or cancer.
That’s why being nutritionally literate is so smart, knowing what remedies to take is the best way to treat any health concern, especially something like acid reflux.
Treat your acid reflux with one purpose, to help eliminate the cause without ignoring the symptoms. That way you will make the best of conventional medical wisdom and ancient time-tested cures and go beyond temporary treatments.

Esophageal Reflux
There are many causes of esophageal reflux and the symptoms vary greatly from one patient to the next. Individuals’ medical histories are a huge factor in how esophageal reflux affects each patient. The symptoms vary depending on the specific state of the condition but the most common symptom associated with it is heartburn that is often severe. Simple household remedies are occasionally sufficient in treating the symptoms but several medications are also available at most drug stores or your local grocery store.? Some of the home remedies are very simple such as drinking or eating something special before eating food that could potentially trigger an attack.? Specifically, things like apples are known to be acid neutralizers.? Also, simply drinkig a glass of water may be just enough to flush the extra acid that’s causing irritation out.
There are also daily changes that can be made to alleviate reflux.? Tracking what foods trigger reflux and then avoiding them is one of the main ways to reduce occurrences.? Also, eating smaller meals more frequently can help, as it doesn’t allow unnecessary pressure to build from assaulting the stomach with large amounts of food.
Over the counter medications are generally affordable, easy to use and the effectiveness has increased over the recent years which makes them better solutions than home remedies for most people. However, over the counter medications are not intended for continued use, and are not a permanent solution for frequent heart burn.
Esophageal reflux can be serious and you may not be able to treat it on your own. In this case you should consult a licensed physician to assist you in your treatment by prescribing a more powerful medication. Prescription medications can be a good solution for some people as they target specific causes of heart burn and prevent the production of acids or even neutralize them.? However, this is a very expensive route and can lead to a lifelong commitment.
Prevention is the best method for treating esophageal reflux because it is much better to prevent the pain and discomfort rather than to wait for it to hit you and then have to wait for relief. The most difficult part of treatment is simply finding the right solution for you because everyone’s body is unique and reacts differently to treatments.
Esophageal reflux can change over time so it is important to be proactive by monitoring your attacks and the effectiveness of different treatments to ensure that you are on top of the situation and not suffering more than you necessarily should be. If you suffer from esophageal reflux, keep in mind that there are several different ways to treat this condition so if you feel that your current treatment is not sufficient, keep an open mind to trying others until you find something that works for you.
