I have really bad acid reflux. I am about to have my 4th prcedure to dialate my esophogus in 2 years. I have read all the advice on medications and lifestyle changes, but I was wondering if anyone heard about a remedy involving eating a slice of an apple as well as two other food types during or before a meal to cure reflux? If so, how does it work?

The two foods that I recommend is Black strap Molasses and Raw honey. The apple is better for night time reflux while these will work for just about all of it. What you will do is take about a tsp. of whatever one you chose. Molasses being the better because of strength and nutrition, but must be use to the taste. What the substance will do is stick to the sides of the esophagus and do two things, one is heal and the other is protect.
On the healing end, both substances have a healing property in them, and as they sit on the walls of the esophagus they will heal it. This is also helpful if you have a sore throat in the morning from refluxing.
On the protection end, both substances are high in sugar and when acid that is refluxed comes up to that the sugar will neutralize it and it will not longer be a problem at that point.
I would also look to putting Cinnamon in you diet, it has been know to help with digestion and will help you reduce the amount of acid need to brake down food, therefore causing you to reflux less.
Your digestive system is all messed up…..You can email me at newbegin@shaw.ca if you want to know how to get help for you. If you have a different email address other then Yahoo please use that.. As your subject put in Acid Reflux
I have never heard about an apple being used, but that does not mean that it won’t work.
If your having a "procedure" done then you should know, the acid from your stomach goes into your esophagus, usually from a damaged esophagus, a hernia, etc. I can’t or don’t know how apples or any other food product would help this condition.
I would think adding food to the stomach while it’s refluxing, would make matters worse.
I would want something like Maalox instead but, that’s up to you.
