i have been suffering from acid reflux for about 6 years now. started out with the heartburn, then got to the point were i couldn't swallow food without flushing it down with lots of water.the doctor put me on protnic then previcid, prilesac, and finally nexium for the last 4 years.i have been hospitalized 3 times in the last 2 years for heart attack like symtoms. the results have always been the same. there is nothing wrong with your heart. this last trip to the hospital on 4/18/06 the doctor told me to double up on the nexium. so i went home and did so.that night the pain in my chest was worse than it had ever been. that's when i got on the computer and typed in reflux. i found this site and after reading all the comments on acv, i felt a small ray of hope. i got up the next day and went to the health store and bought a bottle of acv. i went out to my truck , opened it, smelt it, and thought there is no way i'm drinking this. at that same time my heartburn was so bad i figured i had no choice. i took a swig of acv and drank some orange juice right after. the heartburn got worse for a minute or so, and then just like that it was gone, it stayed gone for almost 5 hours. i was completely stunned. ive been taking a tbls 3 times a day now for 3 days and i haven't felt this good in years.who ever started this web site should be thanked for eternity. thanks for all of your input. thank you, thank you!!!!!

I ran across your website surfing the internet. After about 3 weeks of having stomachache pains up all nite I had a very bad episode where I thought I was having a heart attack. the pain was all in my back, I was having anxiety attacks and was diagnosed with Gastritis. I went to the ER and they put me on Pepcid AC and Maalox. I was taking that for about a week when I came across this website. It seems to help but I started to try the ACV 2 teaspoon twice a day with Organic Apple juice taste great and it seems to really be helping with the Acid Reflux. I can sleep through the nite I still have the pain alittle bit but nothing compared to what it use to be, I can handle it. I will continue to use ACV. Oh, and my complexion seems to be brighter too. Great Stuff! I love it, Thanks for the insight.

Read your web page about natural cures. After many different drugs I had tried and not had any relief so I tried your remedy. After reading several different comments from people who had done the vinegar I thought it made sense. I also read some other information on chewing gum helps create more saliva which adds more enzymes that aids digestion. With these 2 natural things I have had about 80 percent relief! YAAAAAAAAAAAA!

When I first had pain in my hands from arthritis I was 35. I read about ACV/honey as a drink, hot or cold, and drank it once a day. It helped, and I used it for quite a while. This was a home remedy for what used to be called rheumatism, and farmers mixed pure apple cider vinegar with mother into the mash for their cows to help them have healthy calves and easy births. There's a popular book out that talks about ACV for reflux, and other natural cures that has good information. I've been drinking pure cranberry juice with spring water several times a day for a year, and after a month I had no reflux at all, and begin sleeping all night for the first time in a long time. I believe the acid in any natural pure juice is good for digestion, but the natural AVC is good for a lot of other things, balancing the ph in the system. Great web site, thanks.

No more tums for me... ACV has cured my acid reflux after taking it for a month... It is so nice to not to burp up the acid and not having the dry cough that comes after ... Thanks so much for the advice.

After 15 years on Prevacid, I stumbled onto this web site. It has now been 2 weeks and I have not taken a pill. I take 1 T before each meal. If I feel bad after eating, which has been only twice, I take another Tablespoon.

I did not actually hear about this remedy on this site but have tried the ACV out of pure desperation to cure heartburn and I am a firm believer! I had heartburn for weeks, chewed up an entire large bottle of antacids to no avail. I took 1 tbsp of vinegar and before the awful taste was out of my mouth my heartburn was GONE! It did not return for many months and I repeated the ACV dose. It's been a year and a half and I've had 4 doses of the ACV and it does such a great job removing the heartburn pain!

I've been mixing up the remedy for Acid Reflux with includes 12 oz. of light apple juice from the supermarket and 2 tbl spoons of cheap apple cider vinegar. I haven't taken a pill in two days now. It worked immediately for me. I had a very severe case before I found this cure and I wish I'd found it sooner!

I had a cold/bronchitis for a few weeks, and then developed a severe case of acid reflux on top of that. I had a violent, persistent and productive cough, lost my voice, and was exhausted because I couldn't sleep because of the coughing. I started taking Prilosec OTC but it didn't help. Out of desperation, I tried taking some Apple Cider Vinegar after finding this site. I had immediate improvement the night I took it and was finally able to get some rest. I continued taking it once in morning and once at night, and now I'm not coughing at all and the reflux is gone. I'll be honest, it didn't feel very pleasant going down, but a few minutes after I took the first dose, I noticed improvement. Thanks to everyone who said it worked and mentioned how much and how often they took it.

I have suffered from reflux for years and heard about apple cider vinegar so thought I'd give it a try. My wife bought some home and I was actually suffering severe pain from reflux when she arrived. 2 teaspoons later and I am sitting here completely cured. Thankyou sooooo much!

I'was diagnosed last year with Hashimoto's Thyroiditis. When I started taking synthroid I started getting severe chest pains. I called 911, went to the hospital and had several tests done to no avail. My chest continued to hurt so bad, it felt like I had an elephant sitting on me. I went back to several doctors with no luck. I never had any acid reflux type symptoms in my life. I am 50 yrs old, work out, run marathons, and not over weight. I eat extremely healthy etc, etc, etc. Then I read that having a hypothyroid disorder like hashimotos can cause acid reflux because it weakens the valve that can let acid get back into your esophagus. Well, to make a long story short, apple cider vinegar worked unbelievable. I was grabbing my chest in so much pain on such a regular basis that doctors almost had me convinced I was having panic attacks and needed to see a psychiatrist. I knew it was not panic nor stress because I have a good life, but when a doctor can't figure out what is wrong they seem to want to pass you off to a shrink as soon as possible. Thank you so much for this web site and saving my life. I use apple cider vinegar, 2tbs mixed in water every night. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.

I had an extreme attack of reflux, to me anyway. I mean it burned from the middle of my chest, all the way up my throat halfway! And the pressure was uncomfortable. I downed 5 exta strength Tums...that didn't work. I took one of my wife's protonix...didn't work. So I searched under natural cure for acid reflux. your site came up after a few sales sites. So I tried ACV, and as I'm writing this, the pain and weirdness is going away slowly...a little. It's definitely not as bad.

After numerous doctor and ER visits and many tests for asthma-like symptoms, passing out feelling, sinus problems, tinnitus, then taking Nexium, Reglan, Prevacid, Zyrtec, Pepcid Complete and anything you can possibly think of, I had just about given up with doctors and medicine for acid reflux. Then I found this website and decided to try the apple cider vinegar and water. What a blessing! After five days, I am truly amazed. I feel ten times better than I did this time last week and I can actually hear without the ringing in my ears. Acid reflux can be a nightmare and can cause many strange symptoms to the human body. I am a 42 year old female and this has been an ongoing problem for over four years. My father lived to be 89 years old and took ACV almost every day of his life. He was a very wise man and I really think he was on to something.

ACV cured my acid reflux as soon as I took my first dose with grape juice. I've been taking PRILOSEC for a year and it wasn't working anymore. I found this site and am so relieved to have a good nights sleep.Thanks so much Earth Clinic for the info.
