Accepted Answer

Urine odor: Yes the products can give an odor to your urine and it does not mean that you have a problem.

Question 2

i am mixing apple cider vinegar with water and lemon juice. is this what is giving me heartburn?

Accepted Answer

Good possibility: There is a good chance that the cocktail you are using would cause you heartburn symptoms, by combining 2 acidic liquids. Would definitely recommend giving it a trial in discontinuing it and see if your symptoms improve. Is there any specific reason for why you are drinking consistently that?

Question 3

i find heartburn relief with apple cider vinegar gummies after years of struggling. my doctor mentioned that it could cause silent gerd and stomach inflammation. are you likely to have silent gerd if you used to suffer from full-blown gerd?

Accepted Answer

: Silent GERD is a thing, but I wouldn't worry about it much. I suspect their comment was wondering why adding an ingested acid product (vinegar) to a reflux problem would help. I suspect it has less to do with the apple cider vinegar than the gummies. It has been known for decades that simple carbohydrate sugars will settle the stomach. I suspect a little honey or karo would help you as well.

Question 7

Question 8

Accepted Answer

Helps treat,not cure: Aloe juice is a wonderful natural treatment that can help to heal but is not a "cure" as to cure you need to address the underlying causes.

Question 9

i have been drinking apple cider vinegar to help with my gerd. it seems to help but what can i mix it with for taste and how much do i need to take ?

Accepted Answer

Your doc can give: You something for it after he/she diagnoses it.  You can also use dgl, available in the health food store.  These capsules are licorice w/out an enzyme that raises blood pressure.  They coat the lining of esophagus.  Peace and good health. Apple cider vinegar is fine bt please make sure you use the "with the mother" on the label (peelings).  Dilute w/water.  Peace and good health..

Question 10

i have been reading lately on the health benefits of  drinking hot water with fresh lemon juice.i have gerd, will the lemon do me more harm than good?

May actually help!: Many people find that drinking lemon juice actually helps GERD! However, any benefits are temporary and purely symptomatic (like the drugs that are commonly used).
