Severe GERD Symptoms
As you may already know just ‘treating the symptoms’ of heartburn acid indigestion and acid reflux can lead to worsening symptoms called gastro esophageal reflux disease or GERD for short.
Basically it all starts with an acute case of simple heartburn, which because the ’cause’ of the heartburn is ignored and the symptoms have been treated with antacids and Over-The-Counter (OTC) stomach acid blockers it escalates to chronic heartburn.
Unfortunately millions of people are under the false impression that treating the symptoms of anything is the same as a cure or worse they are lied to and told there is no cure.
It’s really important that you do your own due diligence and question everything you thought you knew about heartburn, acid indigestion, acid reflux, acid rebound, hiatal hernia and severe gastro esophageal reflux disease.
Frankly they are all pretty much the same thing . . . I call it a timeline of gastric disaster. This happens with many simple health imbalances these days because everyone seems to think only ‘treating symptoms’ is a solution and IF that were the case then the solution for GERD IS the problem.
Severe GERD symptoms aren’t pretty. Watching someone’s health go further and further down the tubes is a sad thing, especially if it happens to be your own digestive health.
Don’t just take my word for it or anyone’s word for it, at least not until you’ve looked into heartburn and severe GERD symptoms yourself . . . researching GERD only takes a few hours of your time, besides your worth it . . . your health is priceless.
The trick to curing your severe GERD symptoms is to stop ignoring the original cause of it. Don’t just ask an allopathic doctor . . . ask a health practitioner that practices integrative and holistic medicine too.
Too many people are paid for selling drugs to treat GERD symptoms these days. You need to find someone who wants you to find your natural pathway to wellness, not just keep you as another customer endlessly suffering from severe GERD symptoms.
If food is getting stuck in your throat . . . if your throat is bleeding . . . if you cough more than ever lately . . . your voice is hoarse . . . you’re short of breath and have a pain in your chest all day, then you may have severe GERD symptoms.
If all you continue to do is treat your severe GERD symptoms, the root cause of your GERD will just inflame and get worse . . . short of a bonafide miracle out of nowhere.
That’s why heartburn, acid reflux and GERD drugs are so risky . . . you need to eliminate the root cause of your severe acid reflux disease (GERD). If you don’t you could end up with mutated throat cells called Barrett’s esophagus . . . 1 out of 100 people with Barrett’s esophagus end up with throat cancer.
The same remedy that prevents severe GERD symptoms cures severe GERD at the root cause. Remember being well is more than just being free of severe GERD symptoms; you want to be totally GERD free.

Natural treatments for gastro intestinal reflux disease (GERD) are simple to find and safe to take.
Most people don’t realize that the cause of their GERD is from treatments that only cover up the symptoms of GERD. At least a natural cure won?t have adverse side effects and can buy you time until you find the right natural cure for you.
When you fail to cure the cause of your heartburn, acid reflux or acid indigestion, because you blocked all acid reflux symptoms, your acute or sudden acid reflux becomes chronic.
That’s all GERD is . . . chronic heartburn.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, “Nothing happens at the symptom level. Change only takes place at the causal level.”
Natural treatments for GERD are always better than unnatural treatments for GERD, no doubt . . . but treatment still only treats symptoms of GERD.
The great thing about a nutritional approach to GERD treatment is at least you’re contributing something toward your cell health and the natural healing process, where as drugs do nothing to nurture your cell health.
In fact all prescriptive drugs are designed to slow down your own detoxification process by chemically inhibiting your kidney and liver. This action keeps the drugs in your body longer . . . otherwise your immune system will identify them as poison and eliminate them quickly.
I’m not a physician, but it doesn’t take one to tell you that if you have GERD, acid rebound or even the early stages of heartburn, the last thing you need is to burden your healing process with harmful chemicals.
Bottom line is if you’re even considering treatment for the symptoms of GERD, you need to think twice about what the real cause of your GERD is.
Before you had GERD, you most likely had acid rebound, right? Do you remember how you got acid rebound? Odds are it was an adverse side effect of taking a Proton Pump Inhibitor (PPI), like Prilosec. These drugs cause acid rebound . . .
Remember before acid rebound? You may have had a bout with Hiatal hernia and before that acid indigestion, acid reflux and heartburn.
Everyone is different, but this GERD timeline may help you gather a better idea of why you’re looking to GERD treatment. At least you’re looking for a natural treatment for your GERD, but if you don’t start addressing the root cause, odds are your symptoms might continue to get worse, leading to surgery or worse . . . even throat cancer.
Go back to the basics and you’ll discover the natural cure for your GERD, or should I say, a natural solution to help your healing system eliminate the original cause of your GERD suffering.
The natural treatment for your GERD is a step in the right direction, at least until you learn what will help you heal yourself using one of the many natural cures available.

Curing Acid Reflux
Curing your acid reflux and balancing your digestive and enteric systems is the same thing.
Acid reflux is simply a disorder that started with a basic digestive imbalance, which was allowed or sometimes encouraged to get worse.
Acid reflux is the same as heartburn and will lead to acid rebound if treated with Proton Pump Inhibitors (PPIs), instead of being addressed at the root cause.
Acid reflux can’t be cured by treating the symptoms. Only by addressing the root cause of your acid reflux can it ever be cured.
The physician’s job is to help you help the natural healing process along. At least that used to be the physicians goal . . . to first do no harm.
Bottom line is drugs do harm. Not only do toxins from drugs interfere with your kidneys to keep them inside your cells, drug treatments also discourage you from addressing the root cause of your acid reflux, or whatever you suffer from . . . delaying your cure and in most cases actually preventing your cure.
Curing acid reflux isn’t a mystery and it also isn’t a big business, in fact there is little if any money involved in curing your acid reflux.
You can’t patent natural cures, so there is no real marketplace for acid reflux cures.
Curing acid reflux is simply bad business because there is zero profit and no return customer.
On the other hand acid reflux drugs, designed to block acid reflux symptoms, are a huge and very profitable business.
The only person who benefits from you curing your acid reflux, heartburn and acid indigestion is you and your family.
Actually curing your acid reflux benefits your community indirectly as well by keeping healthcare costs very low.
Too bad treating your acid reflux is such a big business. If the acid reflux drugs weren’t so insanely profitable we would all enjoy affordable genuine healthcare through natural cures, instead of a very costly disease care management system.
Not curing your acid reflux harms you, harms your family and costs the community money, but the pharmaceutical companies feed off your acid reflux misery.
It’s no theory, it’s clearly a acid reflux conspiracy . . .the best thing you can do is get to the root of your acid reflux issues and cure it as soon as possible.

The herbal remedy for your acid reflux is going to address your heartburn, acid indigestion and acid reflux at the root cause. On the other hand non-herbal, unnatural treatments such as blocking digestive acid with drugs, only treats the symptoms.
The danger with treating the symptoms of your acid reflux is that you may be making the root cause of your acid reflux worse.
Acid reflux symptoms are the same whether the cause of your heartburn and indigestion is from too much stomach acid production as it is for having too little acid to digest with.
I can?t emphasize the importance of using natural herbal remedies for acid reflux symptoms quite enough. It seems the wrong treatments are too readily available and because of a lifetime of suffering through Direct-to-Consumer advertisements for antacids, people assume that?s what is best for them.
Even if your acid reflux is caused from too much digestive acid production, antacids are NOT a cure for acid reflux.
Blocking acid indigestion and heartburn symptoms never changes the cause of acid reflux, or any health issue.
I realize it?s hard to always think on your own after being conditioned to do what you?re told by advertisers all your life. I know, I?ve struggled with the same contradictory signals too.
Herbal remedies provide unique plant nutrients, cofactors and enzymes that artificial drugs and vitamins simply do not.
Everything about you from your nervous system, your immune system and enteric digestive system depend on plant-based nutrients. The herbal environment around you has both structure and function. Your ancient ancestors realized these important connections thousands of years ago. Drug treatments are only 160 years old, and they never cure anything.
Herbal remedies are time tested and true folk technology . . . drugs are toxic molecules prescribed in small amounts in more of an experimental fashion. Herbal remedies are safe, predicable and proven effective acid reflux remedies.
Like I said your acid reflux symptoms can be blocked with chemical treatments, but that won?t change the cause of your acid reflux now will it?
Plus you?ve got to be sure that your acid reflux is caused from too much stomach acid production or from not producing enough digestive acids.
For this you?ll need a stomach acid test.
Meanwhile herbal remedies for acid reflux, heartburn and acid indigestion naturally work with all your systems internally, using gentle nutrients, minerals and enzymes to help restore balance.
The miraculous thing about herbal remedies is they communicate synergistically with your cells naturally, allowing the most beneficial ingredients to activate what needs activation and balance.
Herbal remedies help your digestive system heal itself of acid reflux better than chemically blocking symptoms of acid reflux will ever do.
