I hope your husband will listen to reason and at least start trying natural remedies, if he insists on being bullheaded about seeing a doctor!

Acid reflux should not be left untreated by any means! The continued back-up of acid in the stomach, esophagus and throat, and continual regurgitation can destroy the lining of the stomach and throat, setting up a perfect host for holes in the stomach, intestinal tract and throat. All of this works together as a perfect host for cancer of the stomach and/or throat.

I’ve read (and intend to try) some of the home remedies that I’ve found online. But in the meantime, I continue to use plain vinegar. I rinse my mouth (to avoid swallowing bacteria and germs that build up during the night) and then sip 2 or 3 tablespoons as I’m washing & getting ready for work. (I found it best to brush and gargle AFTERWARD because using toothpaste & mouthwash before sipping the vinegar makes my mouth and gums sensitive).

If he is overweight (as I am), that’s probably also a contributing factor. Until he gets the reflux under control he also needs to avoid foods that aggravate the reflux. (Doesn’t feel so good to have to restrict what you eat but to get this thing under control, he is going to have to make some hard decisions).

Oatmeal is also a good source to keep his stomach settled. (You can cook it in apple juice – a good brand, not the cheap stuff) to give it flavor, and sprinkle it with cinnamon for extra flavoring. (Cinnamon also lowers high blood pressure).

Doing nothing is not an option if he intends to ever be healthy again. I hope that he chooses to see a doctor or, to try some of the natural remedies that can be found on the internet.

An excellent remedy for acid reflux and diverticulitis as well as gastritis is blending a small red potato with water. Drink 2 times/day, morning and night. You should start feeling better by the 2nd day.

I have found that tossing salads helps control my acid reflux. I am constantly tossing guys’ salads, and it helps my acid reflux. I love tossing salads.

Thank you for information.
If you allowed me, I want to share my experience.Up to last month I have a serious acid reflux problem.One of my friend advises an e-book which gives lots of information how to cure this disease.After her advice,I examine the web site which is sold and I am persuaded and buy it. It’s different other types of ebooks and also it’s much cheaper than them.Now, I haven’t any problem and strongly advises to you!

I have acid reflux for years after seeing a specialist they told me the relflux scarred my esophagus to a point where food would hang up on the scar tissue and would not go down, the only relief was to throw up. I had to have my esophagus dialated several times over the yrs. ( not as bad as it sounds) but if he doesnt see a doc. it could cause severe damage, they took biopsies to check for cancer.
Go To A Doc!!!

Yet again someone toting that acid reflux is caused by foods u eat yaddy yadda yadda. Do your research. Don’t say its not a disease you catch. Most of the people that have had it a lifetime (like me) have GERD. It IS a disease. A very painful disease that is barely controlled by medications and never ever drink apple cider vinegar if you have GERD. It will burn ur already raw esaphegous. While some people do have reflux from food they shouldn’t eat, if you’re having it more than twice weekly, chances are you have GERD. I get reflux from drinking water! For gods sakes don’t ever tell people that acid reflux isn’t a disease. It’ll just piss the people that do have GERD and have suffered long and hard from it off royally! When babies are projectile vomiting breastmilk, do you tell them that they have a bad lifestyle? Give me a break.
