RE: [AlternativeAnswers] Re: digestive enzymes for GERD

D.P.

What I take is Quantum-Rx Digest, which is a full spectrum digestive supplement for fats, carbohydrates, proteins, and dairy. The Quantum HCL is a beet driven hydrochloric acid, digestive and detox supplement. The items are from Premier Research Labs, by Dr. Bob Marshall.

Hope this helps,

Cynthia

However, nutritionists and dieticians did not recommend the intake of garlic in raw form, since the enzyme allicin, does not produce any positive effect on health because it might be destroyed in the stomach, when it is taken as raw form. So it is advised to take powdered or dried garlic, which produces beneficial effect on health. Pickled garlic and cooked garlic can also be taken, which also beneficial to health.

Garlic prevents allergies and throat irritation and reduces the risk of respiratory tract infections, provides relief from coughing due to the presence of anti viral and anti bacterial properties.

Subject: RE: [AlternativeAnswers] Questions about GERD

Channing,

I am so sorry you are having to endure this nightmare. I too was diagnosed
with GERD and LPR. All the traditional and OTC pharmaceuticals were
prescribed but I did not choose to go that route. Here is what I did:

1. Eat no later than five hours before bedtime.

2.    No tomatoes, citrus fruits or acidic foods of any type.

3.    I do not eat highly spiced foods.

4.    I eat my largest meal in the middle of the day.

5.    I take a digestive enzyme before all meals and HTC after eating.

Cynthia
