I have been battling heartburns and acid reflux for about a year. I thought I was having a heart attack. I went to the emergency room and found out that my heart was ok. I got a prescription for prilosec. I took this for a week and no relief. I couldn't sleep at night. I was having esophagus spasm.I went to my family doctor and got some aciphex.This help some but I still found myself using rolaids. I went to the health store the other day and they put on to organic apple cider vinegar. I haven't felt this good in a long time. Maybe I won't have to eat so many rolaids. I mix it with water and drink it about 15 minutes before eating. I was also told not to drink while I was eating .THis has been hard but I think it has really help to drink my beverage after the meal.

Late last night, I came across this site, and took my first dose of apple cider vinegar. I felt immediate relief, and had a great nights sleep. Took more this morning, and felt ok till late afternoon. After dinner, I felt very bloated. How long do I take the acv before I begin to feel good all the time?

I have tried just about everything! I went for an endoscopy and the gastroenterologist did not see much evidence of acid reflux. But he said I probably had it since my stomach was inflamed. He diagnosed me with gastritis. I have not been able to eat without severe nausea for the last 6 months! The strange thing is that I never get a burning sensation. I bought some PH strips and my urine PH was very acidic along with my saliva. I understand it is normal to have a slightly urine PH but mine was always very acidic. I ate lots of steamed vegetables, am a vegetarian, never drink alcohol or smoke cigarettes so I don't think my diet had anything to do with it. I think it was years of stress catching up with me. Fortunately for me, my nutritionist turned me onto ACV and I searched for more information on ACV and found this web site. After about 6 days of taking 1-2 tablespoons of ACV, 3X per day with a 1/8 teaspoon of baking soda to neutralize the ph before the major meals and my acid reflux is almost completely gone! Before I had tried ACV, I had to even stop exercising because the glands in my throat would get so swollen. Now I take a teaspoon of ACV with a dash of baking soda before I exercise and hardly experience any swolleness in my glands. Each day my condition is improving.......I honestly thought that my life was coming to an end........the nausea and sudden change to my lifestyle was crippling. I continue to take one digestive enzyme capsule with each major meal, but I used to have to take about 4 of them to just get by. I am wondering if I will have to take ACV for my whole life........since my condition is getting better with each day perhaps I'll eventually be just be on an occasional maintenance mode.Thanks so much for this website. Good luck and God Bless to everyone! Also, you can toss the prilosec into the garbage dump!......Prilosec worked well for a while but the joints in my body were hurting me more. I now feel young again!

1 Tablespoon ACV with 2 Tablespoons water a day cured my arthritis and hot flashes. My friend told my husband and I to take ACV for our sore wrists and hands and we started 2 mos. ago. After one mo. I noticed I had absolutely NO hot flashes. This amazed me. I really had them bad night and day. I also noticed no acid reflux (quit taking my prilosec a month ago) and no restless legs to speak of. I also feel I have lost a couple of lbs. Of Course the hand and wrist pain is gone. This is probably crazy but my eyelashes are longer. Pretty funny huh?

I have always been a big fan of Apple Cider Vinegar (particularly its almost immediate ability to stop acid reflux) and other natural cures. I am so thankful that this web site is available for reference to the public. I am convinced that America's healthcare costs could be reduced by 90% if people just took care of themselves and used common sense instead of expensive prescription drugs. Keep up the great work!

Hello I have been taking the AVC (1-2 TBLS) with honey and 30 drops of cayenne tincture each morning. It helps to keep the Acid Reflux in check, but hasn't cured it, per se. I did try Bowen therapy which is a type of body work. Apparently there is a treatment for 'digestion'. My Bowen therapist in Sacramento did this and I had no symptoms for two weeks. They are starting to come back now, so I will schedule another appt. Tom says it is a bug of some sort causing the distress, that is why I also take 30 drops of licorice tincture. I am about ready to try the clay treatment he suggests as well. email me at pcbow @ mac.com if you want the name and address of Ralph for the bowen work. Paula

Your readers may wish to know that many people (especially women) think they have acid reflux when they actually have a lack of acid in their stomachs. Tums and soda will actually cover the symptoms but not give you what you really need. I had acid reflux symptoms and began taking a hydrochloric acid/enzyme supplement. If I forget to take my 3 tablets with a meal, I could have real problems resulting in throwing up. This usually happens when I eat meat. I even have to take my pills with my tea (with milk) in the morning or I get gas and heartburn. My elderly neighbor takes about 1200 units of hydrochloric acid per meal while I only need 300. ACV is helpful and actually gives me energy--perhaps that is why I love pickled foods. ACV is also one of those foods that is acid in nature but alkalinizes the body. Anyone who thinks he has acid reflux would certainly find it worth the effort to try ACV and hydrochloric acid/enzyme tablets before going the medical route.

was on nexium for 6 months and started having really loose bowel movements 3/4 times a day, figured this was not good. Went off the nexium and 2 weeks later went back to once a day with solid stools, but then the acid reflux came back, went on the computer and found this site for acv. Glad I found it, less than a week taking 2/3 times a day I think I am cured.

I have been battling nighttime Reflux for about 3 years now. I am at a stage now over the last few months where I have it under control. I eat dinner at 5:30 then immediately have a desert of fresh fruit, no carbs, no cakes, just fruit. Apples seem to help me. Then I eat nothing else the rest of the night so my stomach is empty when I go to bed. With dinner or soon after I have about 4 ounces of Apple juice with about 2 ounces of Apple Cider Vinegar. Tastes good. About 1 hour before bed I take 1 melatonin pill. 10mg. A study on the net had great luck with melatonin. Then I take about 4 ounces of water with a half teaspoon of baking soda. I raised the head of my bed a little. I am now doing fine and sleep pretty well. No more major burning in my esophagus at night. This regiment works for me. Best of luck!

As a veteran TV News anchorman, I was slowly losing my voice due to a type of acid reflux disease known as Laryngopharyngeal Reflux (LPRD). After limited success with a regimen of proton pump inhibitor drugs such as Nexium and Prilosec, I discovered apple cider vinegar. The short story: My voice is back and the damaging throat clearing which had threatened my career is largely gone. I'm aware that treating a condition caused by stomach acid with an acid product is counterintuitive.. but it works! I don't believe this is a cure, and I still take Nexium once a day but ACV is far more effective.

I would wake up in the middle of the night feeling the symptoms of Acid Reflux & take Zantac & wait for it to work. I took 1 Tbs of' Apple Cider Vinegar before dinner & never woke up. I have been taking 1 Tbs morning & evening before eating for 3 weeks & not once have I felt sick. I'm not as hungry,I eat a third of what I once did. I have lost weight, I sleep well, I feel so good. I have also added to my diet Organic Virgin Coconut Oil, I prefer the Extra virgin but it is twice the price ( read up on it , it's miraculous.)

I found your site looking for relief from acid reflux. It was getting bad. I'd had it mildly for about 10 years and took prilosec on and off. The ACV worked right away and I am now able to eat pizza again without an attack!!! Thank you all. My only suggestion: For those who don't like the taste, I add mine to orange juice and drink it with a straw. That way I can't really smell it and I get it down fast.

Alright, I must post again. I am posting because I want all to know who reads that the ACV works, and I am still painfree. It is 6:01 pm here in Oregon. I am "With The Mother" _______ raw and unfiltered organic apple cider vinegar. The price was $2.79. This vinegar contains no preservatives. It tastes great. This morning when I woke up, I was so awake. This is a miracle. Usually when I wake up, I dread it, I still have pain; it takes all night long to try to concentrate on getting the reflux pain to back off. This morning I was filled with so much energy. I cleansed my face before I went to bed last night. I put about 3 drops of ACV in my hand, added 6 drops of water, rubbed my hands together and patted it on my facial skin, being careful not to get it in my eyes. I let it air dry, and then over the top, I placed my moisturizing creme. I told my husband, I do not care if I smell like the apple orchard, if I have to bath in ACV I will, for I went to bed with no pain, and woke up with no pain. I slept like a newborn baby. I did not wake up to get water or use the bathroom. My face felt like soft silk, and it still does right now. _______ ACV and olive oil went on my sandwich with feta cheese and one slice of tomato, lettuce and maple cured ham on healthy nut bread. I am drinking lots of water too. This is the first time since the last past 5 years that I have enjoyed eating a meal. I also had a small glass of apple juice. I had so much energy in the wind and rain and walking down the mall lanes to get to the health food store. My ACV is my new friend and she will go wherever I go. I have no cough, no neck pain, no back or leg pain. I have not had to take medicine for the cough. I feel so clean on the inside of me. My acid reflux and cough medicine look so lonely sitting next to My 16 fl. Oz. _______ ACV. I was so in pain yesterday, I could not stand it one more minute trying to concentrate on trying to get the pain to stop. I was so worn out. My skin had become so dry from the medication, I was tired all day long from the medication and lack of sleep. I did go grocery shopping, I read to find out which foods were the healthiest, and my grocery bill came out 40 dollars cheaper. I bought fresh foods, foods that contain low fat, low sugar, no more than 17 g.: Here is a partial list: peaches, live and active culture yogurt, lots of green veggies, fresh water fish, Cornish hens, the feta cheese, apple cider, hazelnut bread, yams, celery, melons, light olive oil and royal jelly, pure organic honey. I must say the kind I chose was made from bees from out of the United States. The reason being is because of my developed allergies, so my heart said to do that, just because of the blossoms here I live around. I will be learning about more foods that are better for my health, and now that my stomach and chest and neck does not ache, I will be healthy inside and out. My mouth tastes good, no foul body smells, which the medications were doing to me, plus throwing my body chemistry so out of whack. When you are so used to being half asleep from allergy meds, and stomach meds, you just go with it. But when you feel awake and so full of energy, then you find out, you realize, you have been asleep in your life. I have faith that this ACV is the key to the cure. I do want to tell a quick story here about vinegar in my lifetime. When I was a little girl, we used it to pull out the curds from our soap in our hair when we washed it. Also, the vinegar was a great balance and put a lot of shine in your hair, kept it at the right Ph. I craved vinegar when I was little, and when my mother was not looking I would drink one or two capfuls of it in the bathtub. When she found out I was drinking it, she told me to stop because I would get ulcers. She hid the bottle lol. Oh, I found it, and took little sips now and then. Yes, I was worried I would get ulcers, but I craved it so much. I was raised up on a farm, and I got sick on dairy foods, which I did not know at that time I had a problem with milk. The only times I was not sick was when I was able to take sips of that vinegar. I look back at my life from then and now, and I can see what the vinegar was doing to me, and it was not about to give me an ulcer, it was keeping my body in balance. The other quick story about vinegar is, that it was a house hold remedy for bruises. As soon as you hit or knocked your arms or legs or head, you quickly put vinegar on that area, and you never, ever got a bruise. I did the same thing for my children as they grew up, immediately put the vinegar my children's legs and arms, when they fell down, or knocked their heads, and they never showed bruises either. I did not think much about it; it was just something I learned from my mother; Rest in peace, I love you mom, and I have my vinegar. And also, we did not have a lot of other medicines, so we used products from the pantry. It did not hurt like rubbing alcohol, or that red staining stuff. So those are my stories. I was taking the type of pain killer that contained no ibuprofen, but they did not work after a while, so I decided to go with the ibuprofen anyway, seemed I had no choice, either that or pain anyway. It was a catch 22 all the way around. Yes, I am "With The Mother" unfiltered organic apple cider vinegar, and I will stick with her. My quick prayer is this: goodbye drugs, scares about esophageal cancer or someone cutting out my body parts. Cheers to you Earth Clinic, you have saved my body, and you will save many others too. I am letting others know about this information too, for I want no one else to be acid reflux pain either. Hugs, and take that ACV with plenty of water, follow the directions. You will feel clean inside and out, with no pain, and have skin soft as a baby in no time at all.

Wow, stumbled onto this website last night in desperation,I have felt sick every day for the last four months and have been bringing up acid, I have been taking omeprazole with limited effect, and I now realise I have been prescribed 100% the wrong treatment. Bought Apple cider vinegar tablets this morning and took two, within 15 minutes the feeling of sickness went, and have gone all day feeling better than I have for months, this is not in my mind as I am not easily influenced or easily led, I really do feel better and cannot believe how you can get results so quickly, it really does seem that we all have a lot to learn from our past and maybe we should not dismiss new age hippies so quickly. Thanks to everyone on this site, I will promote this as much as I can.

Apple cider vinegar cured my Acid Reflux, hot flash, back pain and restless leg syndrome. Axid AR did not work, I was in so much pain, went to find out which foods that contained high amounts of alkaline in them. Tired of looking 5 months pregnant. Anyway, thank God I found this site. All I had was regular store bought apple cider vinegar and clover honey and tap water. I spooned a half teaspoon of vinegar into my mouth, about choked to death, followed with water, and then ate a half teaspoon of honey. In about 45 minutes I had no pain. I am so full of energy and do not want to go to bed now. It is 2:43 am in the morning. God bless this site and its creator, amen. Tomorrow I will go find me some ACV.
