Awesome! Helped me get off PPI medicines!
This product helped me get off Nexium completely after being on it for 10 years. Basically, that valve on the top of your stomach won't close until your stomach hits a certain level of acidity. The reason we get reflux is our acid levels drop and even though we still produce acid, it not enough for that valve to sense it and close. So this product is the solution - it raises your acid levels in your stomach so the valve closes! So here's a summary of how I used this product: i was taking one Nexium capsule a day so I cut the dose down to one capsule every other day for two weeks and then one pill every three days for two weeks and then none at all. From the first day of when I started reducing Nexium, i changed my meals to include high protein and simple carbs like cooked veggies. When I ate too much or if I ate large amounts of bread, I could feel reflux again. So I kept those things to a minimum whenever possible. With every meal, I took two of these HCL supplements after I was done eating with my last bite of food or a few minutes after. As long as I ate my meal and didn't snack in between meals, absolutely no reflux would occur at all. With bigger meals, I'd take three. If I didn't take enough HCL capsules, I'd feel reflux starting but I'd take one more capsule and it would stop. That's it! No more PPI drugs for me!!
