Well, one thing can be said for ailment. Other people are willing to help find solutions.
My wife and I have been researching and observing. Today, after a clam chowder meal with a soda biscuit with jam, finished off with some apple juice and an apple — my stomach began to act up.
Dissecting the meal, you begin to wonder which one creates disruption.
Now, one remedy is to take a teaspoon of blackstrap molasses. Not a remedy for finding out which foods create acid reflux. But a covering for the esophagus so that the acid doesn’t cause damage.
Tried that one!
I thought the molasses tasted like licorice. Not a bad temporary solution.
I think I’ll continue this “band aid” solution while I seek out a foundational understanding of what causes continued GERD!
