| In my struggles with Acid-Reflux (heartburn) I finally
wound in a gastroenterologys office who diagnosed me with weak lower esophageal
sphincter (valve). He started me on Tagament, Maalox, a change of diet and
advised me to sleep on a tapered pillow or raise the head of my bed 6 inches.
This approach helped to tame the heartburn, however it still was very troublesome
and difficult to live with. I gave up jogging which helped some but I have
finally found a product that has practically eliminated the problem. I no
longer sleep on a tapered pillow, eat just about anything I want (I do try
to avoid the hot spicy foods), and if I start to have a problem just take
two capsules and in 30-40 minutes--no more heartburn. The product is Flora-Balance,
which contains a friendly bacterium that seems to calm down the backpressure
eliminating the acid flow into my esophagus. May it help you as it has me.
