I don't see how this is legal, but people on Tik Tok peddling miracle "medicine" are becoming more common every day. No FDA approval, no research. Just their marketing hype and false promises. This one, lady is showing some sort of probiotic and claiming it can help people suffering from severe acid reflux and gastrointestinal reflux disease or GERD, replacing medicine that has been tested for decades.

The irritation caused by heartburn increases heartburn. So during your proton-pump inhibitor cycle, you still get heartburn, treat it with baking soda dissolved in warm for instant relief

For anyone else reading, baking soda can save you hundreds of dollars on regular antacids. One you get past the taste and train your body it brings relief, it'll be tasting like champagne soon enough.

LPT: Baking soda and water can burn your mouth and lips after a time as well, so keep it fairly dilute. More is sometimes needed, but not always better.

Second LPT: Get a second small box of baking soda for heartburn use and keep it sealed in a Ziploc or something. It will absorb all kinds of stuff out of the air and end up tasting really bad. (Name-brand baking sodas tend to taste a little less fishy as well, but not by much.)

Sorry, I know more about baking soda now than I care to admit. It's really a super interesting chemical, even in its simplicity.

It's also heavily used in treating and keeping proper pH balance the water in swimming pools, hot tubs and various other types of aquatic entertainment. I used to have to lug 50 lb bags of it to the chemical shed.

I had to take prescription antibiotics+dieuretics for two months after an evening got too exciting. Taking them without food had some pretty nasty effects on my stomach, but I had to take the pills more often than I usually eat.

Also, those stomach problems didn't really stop afterwards either. Luckily, my symptoms were relatively mild compared to everyone else in this thread.

For the mild stuff, yogurt also works really well. It can't be the shitty yoplait, it has to be actual yogurt. I buy the little cup versions and have one most every breakfast, and the symptoms usually don't follow me even when I skip them now either.

I've found that I can drink one coffee, consequence free, so long as I have a yogurt to go with it.
