Acid Reflux Disease Remedies
Q: Alternative medicen people say that almost all American's are too
acidic from eating most carbohydrates which turn into carbonic acid
and that this aggravates acne. I indpendently discoverd that my
previously persistant acne went away when I ate lots of antacids,
baking soda, club soda, or anything that neutralizes acid, not only in
the stomach, but then in the entire body.
I beat acne totally with this and so can many. It is one place where
the alt medicne people are right on.
Can anyone give me some more information about this please?
A:That's very interesting. There's a book on the subject; I believe the title is
"Alkalize or Die" or something to that effect. I haven't read it but maybe I
should.
I use baking soda as an antacid, for acid reflux. I've tried lots of the over-
the-counter remedies, Zantac, Pepcid, and Prilosec, none of 'em worked
for me. Just baking soda. I didn't realize that club soda neutralilzed acid,
I'll have to give it a try since it's got lots less sodium than baking soda.
