Acid Reflux. I have it and I was looking for a natural remedy.?

I just bought the Garden of Life brand Acid defense. Does anyone know if this works for reflux?

Answer:
Hi Shutterbug, Garden of Life products include broad spectrum probiotic formula with beneficial live microorganisms, broad spectrum digestive enzymes, super green formula packed with antioxidant green grasses, micro algae, whole vegetables and their juice, broad-base whole food vitamin and mineral supplements containing whole fruits, vegetables, mushroom and herbs, and other functional foods, but you need understand that this product not may to treat and cure or prevent disease. Always consult with your professional health care provider before changing any medication.
When you have acid reflux or heartburn you can drink tea from Anise, peppermint, and lavender.
Here’s a tea that you can make to help you with acid reflux or heartburn. It will help you reduce the amount of acid you have in your stomach. Mix together equal amounts of aniseed, peppermint and lavender. Make an infusion of this tea:

* boiling 2 1/2 cup distilled water
* pour this water over a teaspoon of the herbal mixture
* let this tea sit for 3- 5 minutes
* strain the tea and add a little bit of honey if you like.
* place this tea in a thermos

Drink up to 8 oz in the morning and 8 oz in the evening to get relief of acid reflux.

Take a teaspoonful of white vinigar daily to relieve heartburn. It works i have been taking it for 7 months and no heartburn yet and no side effects.
As odd as it sounds - drinking a cup of warm (almost hot) water, plain, is very helpful to some.

In my last pregnancy I used papaya enzymes.

I'm sorry, I've never heard of the Acid Defense - but reading on the web I see it has a number of enzymes - so I don't see why it wouldn't be helpful... http://www.crohns.net/page/c/prod/gan895...
stop drinking soda or anything carbonated. Also slow down. Be sure to chew your food and you will be fine. My doc told me to do these things, and i stop having any type of problems.
I'm not familiar with that particular formula, but I'm familiar with that brand and it's a good brand.
But I do know something that cured GERD for two family members.
A multi enzyme formula, since our body already produces enzymes but sometimes can decrease in it's natural production.
Try the product you've already purchased, but I'd also suggest you also take enzymes with every meal. It helps with more than just digestion problems.
Not sure about the "Garden of Life brand", but you can check out this website:
