More than 100 million Americans suffer from the symptoms of occasional heartburn and stomach problems associated with eating dairy, fruits or spicy foods. And since acid-suppressing drugs rake in more than $17 billion a year in profits you might be taking one of these prescription meds.
The drugs, called proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), are intended to lower the acid levels in your stomach. But new studies show that they are actually doing nothing to fix your underlying reflux problem.
The truth is that these drugs may be simply changing the chemical makeup of the gastric juices being refluxed. See, instead of being exposed to acids, your esophagus now gets covered in bilean alkaline, gastric fluid that can even be more dangerous than acid!
A study in the Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery examined gastric reflux patients before and after taking Prilosec®. The researchers found that using the prescription PPI did not change the frequency of reflux occurrences. It only alternated the chemical makeup of the stomach content from acid to alkaline.
So PPIs only temporarily ease your symptoms of reflux and in the aftermath can cause more damage than repair. Please dont continue to fall for this enormous hoax from the medical establishment!
Why not look into natural supplementation to help keep the good acid in your stomachhydrochloric acid (HCl)so you can safely and naturally break down and digest your foods.
