FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS: 1) How can this work when ACV and lemon juice are acidic? The problem is that (based on what I've read) as much as 80% of people who suffer from GERD/reflux actually have LOW stomach acid. Because of this the lower esophageal sphincter at the top of the stomach does not get the signal to close, thereby allowing acid up into the esophagus. The acid in the ACV triggers the lower esophageal sphincter to close. 2) How do I know if I have low stomach acid? Mix 1/4 tsp of baking soda with a small glass of water. Drink it and see how long it takes you to burp. If more than 5 minutes (or not at all), you have low stomach acid. 3) Why does it burn my throat when I drink it? Probably because your esophagus has been made raw by stomach acid. I found that after about a week, it didn't burn nearly as much for me. 4) Does this work for silent reflux? I had a lot of symptoms of silent reflux and it worked for me. I can't guarantee it will work for you, but the burp test I describe in question #2 should be a good indicator. 5) What if I have a hiatal hernia? I can't advise you on that. I had mine repaired a number of years ago when I had surgery to fix an inguinal hernia. 6) Can I just take ACV capsules? Maybe. They didn't work for me. Neither did betaine HCL. But perhaps I wasn't taking enough to equal the amount of acidity in liquid apple cider vinegar. 7) Should I keep taking my reflux meds? I did not. My logic is that they would be fighting the very thing I'm trying to accomplish with the ACV. This is NOT medical advice, though. I'm just sharing what I did, whether it was smart or not. 8) Do I need to make the tonic or can I just drink the ACV in water? You can drink it in water. ACV is the primary ingredient. The other ingredients have health benefits, but most make this tonic more palatable. 9) Will I have to drink this for the rest of my life or just 30 days? It's been over 3 years since I've been on reflux meds or had symptoms. I found that I was able to gradually dial back my consumption to the point where I just mix 2TB of ACV with a small glass of water and chug it down before bedtime once or twice per week.
Appreciate you sharing your experience and research. I've been on esomeprazole for the last two years. Recently been able to taper it to 20 mg once in two days. Tried the stomach acid test and burped in a minute. This means I do not have low stomach acid(?) Any known remedies for this? Thanks!
March 16 2021 this video absolutely changed my life. I had acid reflux my entire life. When I was 16 I had my esophagus looked at and was told that I had the beginning stages of barrettes esophagus and would need to be on antacids for the rest of my life. Fast forward 15 years and many failed attempts to get off of the antacids; I ended up on omeprozole for a few years and started having major symptoms. I was now 30 years old and felt like a 80 year old. My life was miserable and I truly believed that this was how the rest of my life would be, or worse. I prayed to God to lead me to the answer that would fix this and that I was willing to do whatever it took. I found this video that same day and went on a health journey that lead to me going from 200lbs and absolutely crazy amounts of pain and inflammation (from my diet) and of course life long acid reflux to 130-140lbs, getting rid of my inflammation, and no longer taking any acid reflux medication period. I am so thankful that God lead me to this video and that I found it again to come back and just say thank you!
Your experiences sound great! Just stumbled upon this video now, all thanks to the algorithm - not any imaginary friend ;) Looking forward to implementing this video tip after a decade of PPI !
Water - 1892.706ml ACV - 158ml Lemon Juice - 79ml Salt - 1/3 Teaspoon Ginger - 1/3 Teaspoon Cinnamon - 2/3 Teaspoon Few Squirts of Stevia For the UK watchers Hope I didn’t mess it up
March 24, 2024 Covid left me with acid Reflex. I have been miserable. Saw this video started to try the mixture. In just one day I am feeling eighty percent better. This is amazing. Thank you for putting it on. I was willing to try anything.
I’m 32 years old & I started having acid reflux in my early 20s. I started taking ACV tonics a year ago & the heartburn & acid reflux is gone. It’s a miracle drink. Cheers!
Doctors are excellent for emergency situations and reducing pain. But when it comes to chronic illnesses, they seem to only be able to put bandaids on the issue.
The doctors touting covid vaccines are the same demographic of morons who, for more than a half century and counting, mistakenly think cholesterol is the cause of inflammation. Smh.
I would say its more towards the culture in medicine, since its founded in a more naturalistic and mechanical perspective to treat illness and diseases by giving them a prescription to fix it all in which most times suppose to work.
you can thank the Rothchilde;s for that. They are who destroyed the American Holistic Hospital system with their pharma suppression therapy models, the FDA enforcer and the CDC marketing arm that we have today. ALL are corrupt to the core and have zero interest in healing. The war to kill alternatives that do is still raging.
GERD and heartburn were gone since I started drinking ACV. I am having roughly 2 tablespoon of ACV with 500 ml water 2~3 times a day. I didn't add any other recipes on my drink. I felt moderate relief within a day of drinking ACV, and now its been a month. GERD is gone. Thank you so much!
hey can u tell me how much is 2 tablespoon in grams? i put 4 tablespoon in one glass of water and it weighed out at 30grams. i dont want to overdose nor do i want to not put enogh vinegar :D
I'm getting a lot of comments telling me that it was KETO, not ACV, that cured my reflux. I can tell you that keto helped and it allowed me to reduce my daily dose of Pantoprazole from 40mg/day down to 20mg/day -- but if I went more than 2-3 days without meds, the reflux returned. That's after being on keto for a year. Since starting drinking ACV tonic twice a day, I haven't had an issue since day #4. I am quite convinced that increasing the acid in my system via this tonic is what has freed me from reflux and the associated meds.
Serious Keto it is the ACV curing your acid reflux. I know this because I researched and did the same thing! What people don’t realise is acids reflux is cause by LACK OF ACID in the stomach to break down a big meal, and as it coats the meal trying to break it down it then comes back up the oesophagus . Adding ACV to your stomach before a meal acts the same way as stomach acid and is therefore able to break down the meal without the struggle 🤷🏼♀️👍🏻stomach acid naturally depletes as we age it’s unavoidable some more and some less than others. Doctors are too quick to give you a pill for everything and the pills for acid reflux are dangerous. But they won’t tell you this either! What the pills do is STOP your stomach acid function completely. You are effectively now a giant rotting garbage pile because the food is slowly rotting inside instead of how it should break down 🤷🏼♀️. This in turn causes skin issues , dizzy spells , heart problems, liver issues the list is massive I could go on and on ! Get the ACV it works and it’s safer I was on omeprazole for 18 years, not realising at any time this medication could of killed me 👍🏻
He shoots; He scores. Luckily for me, I don't have any reflux but the apple pie tonic just sounds like a nice drink. And yes! I know want a plunger pitcher.
I just like how people will tell you what helped you like they was there or in your body and see how your body feel lol before I started keto I started ACV years before and cured mine didnt even know keto was a thing and was not eating healthy at all so keto do not fix everything sometimes you need something else
April F......I realized that after my botched knee replacement that hurts more than the arthritis ever did. I'm missing a few parts that I wonder if I could have kept.
Most doctors suck first GI doctor I went to told me what i was eating and drinking had nothing to do with my problems. I was eating all fast food and only soda.... of course that caused most of my problems... these doctors are just quick to prescribe medication because they want a patient for life... they don't want us knowing the cures.
I watched this video two years ago when I was losing weight rapidly because I couldn't swallow well with GERD. You encouraged me a lot so I decided to take apple cider vinegar too. Now I am back, fully free of GERD, and eating normally for about a year now. I cannot thank you enough. 💖💖💖
😥😥💔Sir I'm a Muslim woman I hv 5 boys I've been suffering from acid for a 2yrs now I was given the same medication they gave you,I get so weak I can't take care of my children,God used you for this information really I hv tears of joy...Thank you so much. God bless you.
Please get checked for mineral deficiencies, that will have been brought on by creating life, and could also be due to (like my family), mthfr, mineral deficiencies (from gluten allergy destroying the gut and causing mineral absorption issues, mold exposure. Etc. You can rebuild your stomach acid with apple cider vinegar; but that does not answer why it was happening you see; all you’ve now done is use (holistic means) to suppress a symptom / expression etc.
I feel your anger. That has ALWAYS been my issue. Doctors are taught what medicine to prescribe, not what to use nutritionally to address an issue. They’re still on the eat less, move more, low fat, less red meat train. Praying someday there will more widespread medical enlightenment.
Unfortunately there is no incentive to "awaken" to the natural treatments, in fact there are powers at play (big pharma) working against this info becoming wildly available. Though, thanks to the internet the cat's out of the bag and now this info is becoming much more common :)
Hey steve I'm 20 and suffered from GERD for almost 4-5 yrs been on omeprazole and esomeprazole but symptoms were never relieved now i tried acv for past two days and it worked really well i cant thank u enough 😭❤️...
@@simarjeetkaur9578Hi there! Would like to share with you…Ive been struggling for 4 months as I have shortness breathing was uncomfortable and I cant really do normal activities even just for walk , i wanted to give up sometime but then I change my diet and consume ACV twice a day this 2 days. It works better for me. Will update How I feel later. I hope you’re doing great and God heal us 🤲🏻
Hi from turkey, if you have low stomach asid, you will be sick and sense reflux, so vinegar make your stomach asit level 1-3 ph, so your stomach works good, in addition you can use betain HCL+pepsin for 1-2 month, after that you may reduce HCL and put some vinegar instead of HCL, finally you may continue with vinegar after that , if your stomach asit is good , 1-3 ph, your spinchter will close, spincter is door of stomach and osaphagus , thank you and sorry to my English 😅
I have acid reflux and I'm loosing my voice. That makes me think I have high stomach acid. Does it still work with apple cider vinegar? Won't it make it too acidic? Please help.😢

@@merrymonicaa betain hidroklorür + pepsin tablet , mide asidini artırmaya yardımcı oluyor , her öğünle birlikte alıyorsun ama bu herkeste işe yaramaz eğer ki reflünüz midedeki asit azlığından kaynaklanıyorsa işe yarar , önce bi doktora muayene olup tetkiklerinizi yaptırmalısınız, mide asidi az olursa mide kapakçığı kapanmaz , mide içeriği nefes borusuna kaçar , bu da reflüye sebep olur
I watched this about a year ago, and it completely changed my life. I was in a really bad way due to reflux and staring down surgical procedures as a last resort. While desperately digging for a more natural solution, I found this video. Thank you! This information gave me back quality of life that I had thought was long gone. I can not thank you enough for putting this out. It may not help everyone, as you stated, "mileage may vary", but it was a lifesaver for me. I'm just upset that I spent thousands of dollars and years seeking relief and it was here the whole time. The Lord provides! Nature holds many wonders. Consider the birds of the air, the lillies of the valley, and consider taking your life back from Big Pharma.
@@Aaron-ef5oc I noticed results after a month. I still haven’t had it since. Tbh so glad I chose to do this rather than down the meds my doctor prescribed.
@@FaisalKhan-gg7mt From the acid reflux or the burn from the apple cider? I had some burn from the cider. So what I did was add a little bit more water at first.
I just wanna say THANK YOU with a big hug 🤗 You don’t how you’re changing people’s life. I’ve been on PPI for a year or so ( on and off) Tried everything! From taking bland food to giving up on my favourite foods. Especially, coffee, dairy, tomatoes, and pickles !!! It made me feel terrible for a year ! It started in November 2020. I saw your video long back but then saw another video of Tama saying no you shouldn’t take ACV ! Kept wondering what to do but few weeks back I was so frustrated and I thought want the heck ! This is the only thing i haven’t tried. Lemme just try and guess what ! IT WORKED ON THE FIRST DAY !! I took and I literally felt no pain or reflux on the Same day ! I’m on day 10th and I’ve already had coffee 2 times. I didn’t touch coffee in past 2 years !! It was such a liberating feeling. I can’t thank you enough !!! And I’m also angry on these docs ! Without checking the ph they just give antacids ! My metal health was ruined 😭 I used to cry myself to sleep and wonder why is it happening to me !! You saved me ! You saved me !! I’ll always be thankful and grateful ❤️ And I hope this comment give hope to people who are going through this !! Just give it a try and see how body responds and please don’t trust the negative things online, which say you can’t cure this ! You can if you follow the right things and do the right things.
Hi Nidhi... it is wonderful to know that it is helping you and gives a hope to a lot of us too.. I am yet to give it a try as i am waiting for my gastritis and esophagitis to heal first.. Is it possible for you to give us an update on ur current situation? Is ACV still working for you ? Did it make things better??
@@suchimodi4739 glad to have seen this comment of yours . I have history of gastritis and esophagitis. Just wanted to know how are you thinking of getting rid of them as they are caused by low stomach acid as per my latest understanding. Let me know as well.
I saw your video last year, after I went to the emergency room with major acid reflux and a gallstone. I was hesitant to take apple cider vinegar because I thought it would make my stomach worse. I was put on those same pills as you. I had another episode this past week and finally I gave in. I took it and by the 3 day my acid reflux went away! I noticed this past week my swollen belly has gone down, I have energy and I'm in a better mood. I take 2 tbsp of apple cider vinegar and a little agave in a 6-8 ounce glass of water before I eat. I'm so relieved! I can finally sleep laying down and without pain! Thank you so much for your video! God bless!
@@donke7171 I was thinking of mixing a little zero sugar vitamin water to add a little electrolytes. I tried just plain water and acv the last two days. Definitely going to make the tonic instead
Wowwwww I’m been struggling with acid reflux/GERD since the age of 15. I’m now 27 and currently taking pantoprazole 40mg AND Famotidine 40 mg before bed. I find myself in pain 70% percent of the time and literally getting anxiety before eating a meal because I don’t know if it’s gonna digest or leave me in excruciating pain. I’m on day three of trying this method with just 8 ounces of water twice a day and already I feel better than I have in MONTHS. I haven’t even touched any of my medication and have been able to eat freely. Very frustrating that after YEARS of doctors appointments something so natural and easy turned into a solution. Guess it’s not doctors jobs to hip you to natural remedies, I mean how else will they get paid if we don’t buy up all these pills right? Very happy I found this video.
Talking About What Tho Still feeling great, even got to try some spicy dishes that I haven’t had in years. The only thing I would recommend is to not drink any alcohol the first 14 days of trying this. I slipped up once and drunk during the 14 days and went to sleep with slight acid pains but the other 13 days felt great and now weeks later I’m still enjoying the relief as well as drinking and eating with no issue.
Nessa H I’ll echo the comment on alcohol. I don’t drink beer since I’m keto, and I find I don’t have reflux issues if I have a couple glasses of wine, but any amount of hard liquor causes major nighttime reflux.

Thank you so much for sharing your story!!!! I have started ACV recently and noticed a huge difference in my GERD symptoms!! You have no idea how much your story is helping others!!!! Thank you! 🫶👍
So I started trying this tonic and noticed my symptoms increased which is strange because ACV helps my reflux, but I found out for me it’s the lemon juice! Now I’m taking just the other ingredients as a tonic and it’s been helping! So if you’re having the same issue maybe try and drop the lemon juice or cinnamon as these can cause reflux in some people and try again. Don’t give up on the ACV!
Yes lemon juice isn't for everyone, you don't need the cinnamon for any other reason than flavoring, so not required, substitute those with raw honey, takes away the sharpness and adds it's own flavor ! Can I also suggest looking at videos on YT on ACV & Olive Oil, put the two together and according to these videos you should live to 100 minimum 😂
On day 18 of no PPI after 35 years. Honestly, it's been painful, and I constantly tell myself my cells are healing and regenerating. This morning I'm experiencing well being with no burning in my throat or esophagus. I'm filled with gratitude.
I'm 57 and have had acid reflux since my teens - my lifelong friend has been Tums & Rolaids. I finally was prescribed Omeprazole 4 years ago - which worked well, but not when I ate chilies at night! LSS, I went off of that cold turkey 6 weeks ago, cause I hated being on medicine. Needless to say, my reflux returned with a vengeance, so I basically had to stop eating by 4 pm to get any sleep at all. This was doable, but clearly wasn't a long term solution. Then I saw this video. Wow! Today I'm on day 14 of ACV tonic taking and am simply amazed - no reflux and I'm sleeping like a baby. It's nothing short of an answer to prayer - a miracle! Thank you so much for uploading this. God bless!
I worked in 3 medical clinics for 13 years. I was so shocked to find out that GPs hardly learned anything on diet and nutrition in medical school! I was diagnosed with Acid Reflux too and prescribed Nexium and Tecta. I like to read literature or contraindications. One time I read the one on Nexium and I couldn't believe the serious adverse side effects written there. One of the doctors I worked with prescribed a PPI and told me to take it for 6 months. Good thing I read an article online that says you shouldn't take it for that long. So obviously, these doctors don’t know what they're doing!!! Thanks for sharing your experience with ACV. I might do that too!
The frustration you are carrying has to be balanced out by the enviable position it has put you in to be able to make a difference to other people’s well-being 🙌 your missing good health of 15yrs has in effect been gifted to many many people 🙏
Congratulations buddy! I just started keto about 5 months ago and this was one of my many discoveries. Worked literally overnight for me. Down 70lbs, no acid reflux/stopped OTC meds, off blood pressure meds, etc! I love our online community and it couldn't happen without people like you. Thank you.
Man this is so inspiring! You guys, I have been taking Prilosec for over 10 years & I’m ready to try this ACV out & give it a chance because it seems as though this is legitimate. I can feel the cognitive side effects from the omeprazole, it has to be from the meds my anxiety is getting worse & worse I know this medicine has to do with it!!! God I hope this cures me!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
may i ask how the blood pressure was related to the acid reflux? ive been having the acid reflux for years but only recently found out my bp is regularly high. do you think the reflux is causing that? thanks.
@@Uniquecraftingstuti05 I was on the verge of having to get medication when I started drinking Coca Cola again after years. In 2 weeks, no acid reflux. I know the sugar isn't what some people would want, but, a medium drink for lunch, and a 10 oz for dinner was all it took.
Hi STEVE I’ve been taking omeprazole for nearly 25 years I tried getting off of it by slowly tapering off about six years ago but had terrible rebound results. I actually given up on kicking it but came across your video 30 days of Apple cider vinegar versus 15 years of Gerd reflux. I followed what you said in terms of making the tonic and I’ve completed three weeks with very minimal reflux. I watch the trigger foods you mentioned and not eating three or four hours before bedtime. Can’t tell you how appreciative I am that you made this video. Again thank you thank you thank you Steve
Try soda bicarbonate.. I had gastric ulcer and was on antacids for 4 years then I started taking soda bicarbonate .. i was off antacids after a week or ao
Dietitian here. We went to school for medical nutrition therapy. And I agree with everything you said about Western medicine. And this applies to any chronic conditions related to systemic inflammation. I corporate nutrition therapy in your treatment will address your root cause!!!!
Hello there, do you think this drink would be safe? I am trying to heal the byoma in my stomach through supplements and I fear this might mess every progress I've made
I was on Rabeprazole for 6 years until i watched this video..i tried your 30 days challenge and thought of sharing my experience after I finish the challenge and here i am after 30 days not a single PPI..and I cannot thank you enough sir you have changed my life..
I have fixed 5 ailments myself all down to nutrition. I am sick of being chucked antidepressants & omeprazole. I have fixed myself through diet, intermittant fasting, supplements & apple cider vinegar. I have wasted 2 years of my life suffering from stomach problems & vitamin deficiencies. I'm so angry at the time that has been wasted. Sometimes it's better to take your health into your own hands! If I hadn't I would still be layed in bed, not being able to function.
Thank you for this video, I have been following these steps for about a month now. Before so, I had such a hard time dealing with GERD that it caused me to have anxiety. If my GERD acted up soon after my anxiety would follow. I thought I was going crazy and didn't know which way to turn next. I turned to your channel after a desperate night of searching for help. I am glad to say that I am feeling a million times better and my mental state has improved drastically. Thank you for sharing this video it has definately changed my life for the better. Some foods I still stay away from but for the most part, I can relax when choosing what I eat.
I have the same thing you had thank you for telling us your experience ... you really made me happy I will start treating with the acd tonics ... and finally thank you all guys I love you all !
Hey.....I am dealing with the same problem right now...I just want to ask you a question ....when you were taking pantoprazole you had symptoms even after eating wheat or not ??? Plzz tell
Exact same thing i am facing. The anxiety..my o my.....its like going crazy about which positon to lie down or to sit...or wheteher to puke...or to burb..or to control the anxiety symptoms, the bloating in the upper stomach along with nausea and burning.........will ACV help???I am tired of being unhappy...
Same!!! I started to have muscle spasms in my neck too.. definitely can make you feel crazy and alone.. I started this today, already feeling a difference. Thank you for this video! ❤️
I have suffered GERD for months and got to know ACV via your videos. From the first day my symptoms improved and within 4 days GERD almost disappeared. I have light stomach ache still but hopefully it will go as well. Thank you very much for your videos and everyone commented their experiences which make huge impact.
THIS WORKS!!!!! I am on week 3 now and almost completely symptom free. I have only used acv, not ginger etc. two times a day. The first week I almost quit because the acv almost came back up again but now my reflux is in remission. I almost can not believe it! THANK YOU
Dr. Berry often talks about "big pharma" and their fixes. How ridiculous is it to take medicines with such awful side effects and could just cure it naturally for less than $20 a year or so. Glad you got your issue resolved 😊
The painful sensation of heartburn has been vanished since I started out applying this heartburn treatment t.co/yGqhYaiClu I had been able to do my normal routines again! I`ve eaten spicy food, take out, I have tried and tested and am 100% happy with the results!?
I’m happy for you to get out of medications! I hope there are more people with acid reflux will see your video and they can fix their problems. There are always a way to cure our illness but we just don’t know it yet and we rely on the doctors.
I am so glad I found this video. I have had silent reflux for about 5 years. I looked into Apple Cider Vinegar when it first happened and my doctor (who was a naturopath) warned me that AC Vinegar could make it worse so I was scared to really try it. But I fired that doctor and I started using ACV and it has immediately made me feel better, but I have still been nervous about it. After watching your video, I am no longer scared but I am excited to use it every day.
@@vanillaice7576 I make it by the 2-1/2 gallon fridge container. Distilled water, add 2 cups ACV, 1 cup lemon juice, several table spoons of electrolytes mixed in and a teaspoon of trace minerals, and liquid Stevia... Pour over ice, add a little mint-flavored chlorophyll (NOW brand). You'll thank me later. 😎. When you do this, it's even easier to maintain. Streamlined nutrition! This really cleanses internally, energizes, and cuts the appetite! Plus it is minty-lemony-apply delicious!!🌿🍋🌿 🍏🌿🍎🌿🍋
@@vanillaice7576 I have really grown to enjoy it. I buy acv in large quantity and the volcano lemon juice bottles at Costco -- when my lemon tree runs out of lemons. I think I drink some version of it most every day.
Your anger resonated with me. I am a nurse who works in GI. It really frustrates me to see patients come in so sick, and all they get are pills to put down their throats, which I would not put in my mouth. Knowing that there are other ways to fix these things is so hard. I will often tell patients that it's a good idea to really do Research into their conditions to make sure they're happy with the way their treatment is going. I hope they do and figure out alternatives. I am happy you did!
You may as well start giving them whatever y'all doctors usually do, and then on the side give them the link to this video or something, hint at it.. be a little slick if you got to.
Perfect timing! I started Keto last Nov and was able to stop taking Protonix just a couple of weeks ago. I had been on it for over 2 decades. I can't stand the ACV taste but found capsules on Amazon with the Mother that I take everyday. I also stopped all alcohol consumption as well. Best move I ever made. Plan to have a glass of wine here and there. Doctors only know how to prescribe meds and hardly ever have a conversation about diet.
I would encourage you to try the "burp test" I describe in the one year follow-up video, as that will be a pretty good indicator as to whether this will work for you. It's been 3 years since I started consuming ACV and 3 years I have been reflux free. I currently only drink it once per week, before bedtime. I just put 2 TB in a small glass of warm water and chug it down like a shot. Good luck!
I was in the same boat - on reflux meds for over 20 years. I started fasting in 2016 and after my 3rd 5-day water fast (one every 3 months) my reflux has healed, never to return. In 2018 I started eating keto and have had no problems. It's so nice to be 49 years old and on zero prescriptions! Kudos Steve! Keep up the good work!

@@mariemorris5979 hello can u tell me how u stop acid reflux , what was the fruits and vegetables that he was talking about i m having acid reflux from 5 to 6 years
Congratulations on getting off those meds!! I found my acid reflux completely goes away when I’m not eating wheat and/or sugar. I would like to try your tonic for the other health benefits. Doctors will never look at nutrition as a cause or cure because there’s no money in it for them. Watching my mom go through 2 years of a sinus infection, pill after pill, surgery and 3 doctors later we decided to replace the rug in her bedroom and it all went away. Doctors don’t look at environmental aspects either. But all this made me turn to holistic ways to treat everything.
I had been on Pantoprazole for GERD for more years than I can remember. As a nurse, I had asked my GP about possible serious side effects when she prescribed it, and the only thing she mentioned was that I would have a B12 vit. deficiency down the road. The pharmacist never even bothered to warm me about side effects. It is not meant to be taken long term! Well I winded up being rushed to the ER with such serious stomach pain that I had to go on sick leave for 3 months. I won't go into detail about other symptoms, but all were related to horrible digestion and elimination. Then I stumbled upon this amazing video. All I can say is that it has totally changed my life. I quit Pantoprazole cold turkey and with the help of AVC 3 to 4 times a day, along with going keto, it took all of 3 weeks for my acid reflux to disappear. So thank you for sharing your story!
@@serendipity_project I had excruciating stomach pain which sent me to Emerg. After viewing this video and doing my own research on the severe side effects of Pantoloc, I immediately stopped taking it. As a nurse, I eliminated every other possibility as to what could have happened to cause such sudden and horrible stomach pain and found nothing. I've been pain free since quitting Pantoloc. Not only that, but my health and general sense of well-being improved drastically. My GP was no help at all. This video truly changed my life!
@@serendipity_project Absolutely no signs of an ulcer. Yes I had reflux, but that was due to eating too many carbs. I also know that my stomach was very low on acid from taking a proton pump inhibitor. In my research, I found that not only a high % of adults suffer from GERD, but it affects young people also. Very scary!
I had to come back and report! My incessant acid reflux is gone!!! About 9 days in or so, I realized all of my terrible symptoms were just gone!! I'm SOO thankful! Thank you for making this video!
@@khungdien84 Also not worrying about it and constantly trying to find a cure helped a lot! Later on in implemented some good Probiotics which I think keeps it away. I no longer drink the vinegar!
I have gerd for more than 15 years. 3 weeks ago it got really anoying. What ever i ate i felt bad. I just saw your post, not having much hope gave it a try. I used fresh lemons though. Now after 3 weeks drinking one glass in the morning I feel great. I do not know how it works but it does from the first days. Not just gerd but my stomach feels relaxed. No dull pains no feeling full...
Congratulations Steve. I've come to learn that our physicians are taught medicine by the drug companies. Veterinarians give their animal patients better care than our doctors give us. The first question a vet asks when seeing an animal patient is, what are you feeding your pet? Our doctors should be asking us the same question!
Based on my 25 yrs in Healthcare: TRUE: "I've come to learn that our physicians are taught medicine by the drug companies." However: after 25 yrs of animal rescue: Not True. "Veterinarians give their animal patients better care than our doctors give us." While, vets seem to add nutrition into an evaluation commonly, what I have seen is AGAIN the drug companies own the field.
@@georgebarry8640 Yes. The vet has destroyed my dad's dog. My dad believes and follows pharmaceutical bullshit for himself and Duke. It's heartbreaking to watch but no one listens to me.
After watching your video I decided to take the leap and have been drinking acv tonics twice a day for a week now. So far the biggest thing I've noticed is my sleep has gotten better. I usually wake up every night around 4am with mild heartburn, depending on what I eat. Since drinking acv I have been sleeping through the night. I don't feel any heartburn through the day and after drinking a glass last night it also helped ease gas I was having. I even had some wine on the weekend and did just fine. I have however, given up coffee for the time being, and changed the recipe slightly to: - 1tbsp Acv - 1 tbsp lemon juice - 1/4 tsp ginger - 1/4 tsp Ceylon cinnamon - 1 tsp Manuka honey But, overall it has been making a difference. I look forward to reporting back at the end of my 30 days.
I’ve had reflux for years. Never had heart burn but I had the cough like you. I was put on prilosec and I took it for a year. I had the same symptoms as you and I was told it was part of my job and my weight. A couple of years ago I came home from a Disney World vacation with an upper respiratory infection and I lost my voice. Months later I still did not get my voice back even though I had gotten over the infection. I went to an Ear, Nose and Throat doctor and was told I had plaque on my vocal chords causing the laryngitis. After being on numerous medications I did a little research and found that acid reflux could cause the plaque on the vocal chords. I told my doctor this after I found out and he put me on prilosec. Lo and behold within a week I had my voice back but I kept taking the med for 1 month and stopped again because I knew taking it for a prolonged amount of time causes problems. I started the apple cider tonic and never looked back. So happy that you found this and that you stopped taking those meds.
Hey Steve, I've been using the apple cider vinegar mix for over a month now. Been off the reflux medication as well. Not only has my acid reflux been controlled, but my back pain and bruised bone pain has disappeared. Thanks so much for sharing this video. Bobby Moore
Thanks for making this video. My doctor misdiagnosed my symptoms of a chronic cough and shortness of breath for asthma instead of gerd. 8 years she had me on high doses of asthma medications. I went in again and again due to fatigue and breathing issues, and she didn't do anything for me. Thankfully I found the cure and switched doctors. I really felt a lot of solidarity with you when you mentioned why you weren't more happy to find a natural cure. I get the same feeling when I get screwed over by a bad mechanic. So much trust goes into people that really don't know what they're doing. The are bred in schools that deny anecdotal evidence. If it works for thousands and thousands of people, maybe that is good enough to start recommending people to try first, instead of life long medications that eat away at your body. But it all becomes clear when you know that the pharmacutical companies fund medical schools, which in turn causes doctors to put people on their products. It's discustingly corrupt when you think about it. Regardless, thanks again for the video, it's helping me remember to get back on track with my health. Cheers!
@@geetagangwar2263 This vinergar stuff did not work for me. My endoscopy showed i have gastritis and gastroparesis, so the vinegar just made things worse.
Thank you for making this video. I just turned 40 and have been experiencing lots of recurring unpleasant health issues that all happens at the same time due to stress. Chronic dry cough, insomnia, cold sores, headaches. I have never taken so many medication like this. I have been having this persistent dry cough mainly at night for the last 4 months and my doctor started me on omeprazole 20 mg. After watching your video, I think I know how this is going end up, but I know what to do now. Will start with diet and sleep. I am thankful for good people like you that cares about other. Cheers!
I do know the med. lisinopril for high blood pressure causes a very dry cough that is hard to get to go away in some people. It’s a good blood pressure medicine but can cause this. Never stop taking high blood pressure meds suddenly…talk to your doctor about how to wean off them.
This was such an enlightening video to me! I had the same cough for at least 9 months. I saw an ENT doctor who also told me that I had a little bit of acid reflux but not bad enough to medicate. I just never knew if, when I opened my mouth to talk or sing if I would start coughing without notice. I realized that I had not been coughing for about 6 months when my husband asked me if I had been having acid reflux and the answer is no, not for quite a few months! I do believe after watching this that they are connected and I will try this tonic and keep this information. Thank you!
Excellent Steve! I fought this one years ago to a point of surgery (nissen fundoplication). I had the same concerns with regard to the long term use of the medicines. In the last year the wife and I have became familiar with a Naturopathic Doctor. It's amazing the difference in approach to an issue and how much better we both feel. Like you, there's more to the story. He's why I have love 50 pounds and still on track for 40 more pounds to goal weight. Keep the video's coming. Great job.
Adopting the keto lifestyle led to me becoming completely migraine-free after having suffered from the condition for over 40 years. Getting rid of ALL my prescription meds for migraines was overwhelming and freeing. Congrats on your success with apple cider vinegar for your acid reflux. ACV is a fantastic addition to the diet for so many reasons.
Thank you. THANK YOU. I'd only been on PPI's for 2 months, but I knew something wasn't right. I did some research, including watching your videos, and jumped in head first! My GERD/reflux symptoms are basically gone and I've only been using ACV for 4 days. I take two tablespoons of ACV in a glass of water, as soon as I wake up each morning, and about 30 minutes prior to my evening meal. I feel great, and I have no acid reflux whatsoever. I think it's also very important to eat well, limit the carbs, and drink plenty of water. Damn those doctors! They should be referring patients to at least trying ACV before PPIs.
Hi ma'am must it be acv with the mother? you see i exhauted all of my savings on ppi and antibiotics. acv with the mother is expensive in my country. i do not know if acv without the mother does not have thesame composition as acv with the mother. Atleast i can afford the former
Thank you so much! I started drinking the ACV, and last night (day 5), was the first night I had ZERO symptoms! Instead of 2-3 hours of sleep, I got 7! ❤ Happy that I found your channel!
Doctors get about 2 hours of nutrition in med school. Needless to say they have no clue and learn to only prescribe medication. Great job! I have been taking ACVfor years and love it.
Your tonic is healing leaky gut, which takes a couple years to fully heal, so keep doing it Bro! I'm at about 9 months of ACV, and not only do I not have reflux EVER (Mine was milder, usually treated with tums), but as PART of my leaky gut healing regimen, my psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis are going away. Healing leaky gut allows you to absorb nutrients that would otherwise just go through your system.
Your video is emotionally uplifting. It gives me hope that this problem isnt lifelong as most people promote it to be. Gonna try the same thing. I appreciate you putting this out here for people to be enlightened on the benefits of acv for gerd.
Same here! I m suffering from sore throat and taste in my mouth but determined to come off omeprazole after many years! I have weaned off gradually but not through advice from my doctor because took me off Omeprazole then onto Lansoprozole and then back on Omeprazole as he seemed determined to keep me on PPIs. I am going to try Cider Applr Vinegar as last resort. Even pharmacists seem reluctant to criticise PPIs!!
I've been on Esomeprazol for about 13 yrs. and a few other for about 4 yrs. before rhat. I've tried to get off before and always gave up after 3-4 days! I knew for a wile that apple cider vinegar could help but could never choke it down. Recently after getting on keto I found video's that said I could add stevia! Wow what a consept! I never even thought you could just take the edge off of it!! I kinda feel dumb for not thinking of it before because I knew that sugar could take the edge off vinegar because I like to make my own balsamic dressing. So why did this take so long to figure out!! 😰😰😰 I've been doing vinegar and fresh lemon for a week now without the Esomeprazol! I am so glad to be off the poison that is making my bones brittle!! I just found this video because I have been watching your videos and subscribed when I stated keto about 2 months ago now!! Best thing I have ever done and I'm getting my health back!!
@@rachellewilliams3074 AVC is natural and it just works trust me. What did people take before pills .... I take à tablespoon AVC to à tablespoon water & swallow it réal FAST in the evening🤗 Apple Cider Vinegar (AVC)
This video encourages me to go ahead and make my ACV drink. I bought a new bottle of ACV a week ago but have let it sit. Sometimes I hate to try new (to me) things. Thankfully, no acid reflux, but have other issues. I am back doing KETO for a month now and am experiencing so much less joint and back pain, what a blessing! There have been no other changes in my practices but eliminating carbs to 20 grams and less per day. Thanks for the video!
Every body reacts differently to many things the body is a mystery, Doctors can tell you one thing that something is good for you, But your body will let you know for sure, My Doctor said drink apple cider vinegar which I did, this was to help controll high blood pressure, a month later I got Acid reflux bad, my chest hurt and my left arm, It continued for about two and a half months, I went to specialist and he said after I explained what was going on, said I don't think you have acid reflux, I told him also that I had been drinking A C V, told me to stop drinking it which I did, but told me to see a heart doctor which I also did, the results ( Nagitive ) my heart was sound no problems, that same week my acid reflux went away. Apple cider vinegar my help some, but as I said every person's body is different.
You are very very right in everything about the video. I too was diagnosed with GERD / CHRONIC ANTRAL GASTRITIS in October 2021. I followed your video and got rid of medications (3 tablets of Omeprazole 20mg and four lids of DIGENE fluid every day). I too am somewhat angry why doctors never advised me not to use these medications long term but try alternative remedies. I am a Himalayan monk who royally ignored the body dynamics in serious pursuit of God and higher truths. The moment I realised it's time to focus on the body (it was disintegrating) I saw your video and had just one teaspoon of ACV twice a day in a glass of water. It worked as perfectly as it did for you. Purpose of this message is to instill hope and confidence in anyone who comes your way with this problem. Thank You Very Much.
@@SpektorBaal I didn't, I couldn't and in fact one shouldn't stop medication just like that. Actually I had a strong stomach acid constitution from birth. Enormous food was absorbed effortlessly without putting on weight. It was a surprise that I got this disease. The first three weeks of ACV use itself reduced all my medication to just one 20mg pill. This was stubborn and wasn't going. So I stopped consuming white sugar in tea. White sugar as Ayurvedic experts and our dear friend Serious Keto know for sure increases production of certain acids in the stomach that lead to gastritis, ulcers and possibly cancers. But then your stomach adjusts rapidly with time and will give you lot of flexibility in food choices soon. Regular walking for one hour repositions your digestive organs and firms them up in their proper shape and place. Duodenum tightens naturally and reflux becomes helpless in being able to trouble your esophagus. Please try. I am an Indian baba who has ignored body rules for decades. You must be a normal healthy person with proper lifestyle. I am sure you would succeed in due course. You can count on my best wishes and blessings in the process.
@@simarjeetkaur9578 What breathing issues dear Simarjeet Kaur, by any chance you were addressing this question to Serious Keto sir? I had no breathing issues ever.
@@meeranayak Better before food because you need to wait atleast 40-50 min after food to drink water or ACV in this case (my doc suggested not to drink water immediately or in between having food and to give a gap of mentioned duration)
I can't thank you enough. I asked you before if it's a good idea to get off meds when I've only been on it for 2 months, and you redirected me to the 1 year review video. So I've been drinking ACV for over a week now (went cold turkey off meds) and I feel like I'm cured already. No more globus sensation in the throat (or mostly gone). I can't believe it only took a week and a few spoons of ACV to help me cure my reflux. My problem, like 80% of people, was low acid instead of the opposite. I will continue drinking ACV, and I wish you the best that life has to offer for helping people like me.
Steve, I dont know how to thank you bro. I was dealing with a really really bad case of Acid Reflux for the last 1-2 years. I was on Omeperazole (20mg)... That stopped being effective. So had to go on Domperidone and Esomeprazole (40mg). That helped. But then I found out your video. Got all the ingredients. And boom. Its gone. just like that. I even do alternate days now and its still working... I owe you really big for this. It has changed the quality of life. I meant it. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Also, one recommendation. I use Jaggery (organic cane sugar) which is also suppossed to have acid reflux healing properties... You may want to consider using jaggery powder instead of stevia as part of your tonic
I was in the same boat you were in. I had something in my throat that kept coming up that wouldn't go away so I went to an ENT doctor. The doctor did a Restech study on me and my acid reflux was off the chart. He gave me the same medication you were taking. I taken the medication for 1 week and said I am not taking this anymore because I'm not a medication type of person, and two it just didn't feel right. I decided to do some research and get rid of this acid reflux naturally. I figure this issue is based on what I am eating and the time of day I'm eating it, so I switched my diet, started doing some research and come across your video about apple cider. Like you, I will take the apple cider for 30 days and throw away the meds, no good for human consumption at all. It's like I'm paying these doctors to break my body down to get worse. Medication have so much side effects to it, they don't tell you that part but they prescribe medicine. Eating naturally, drinking vegetable juicers came to be my routine and I feel so much better and energetic.
Hi Steve, I'm a nurse as well & suffered from reflux 5 years ago (never went on meds-as I hate medication) & came across the ACV/Lemon juice then. It's been 5 years & No more coughing/burning for me! Other nurses at work have started drinking ACV too after seeing my results. In the winter I add cinnamon & Swerve (brn sugar), ( haven't tried ginger) but I heat it up & it tastes like hot apple cider! Pretty Dang yummy.... :-) thank you 4 getting this valuable info out to public! Your Awesome!! God, has a natural cure for just about Everything.....
Oh forgot to mentioned, it got worse for me initially & I gave it 7 days of drinking the ACV/Lemon juice . Then smooth sailng... now take 1a week or if symptoms come up. Don't give up, it works!
@@freetheppl5376 Thanks for the TIPs I expect some kick back as well but I tried everything else so Im going to try this. Heating it up is a good idea, I like that.
I've been experiencing gerd for 2years and it amazes me how doctors always say it's high acid when that is not the issue and perscribe you countless pills. Well I have to say I'm 16days in drinking this acv mix and it has changed everything! I'm really thankful for your video! Hope all is still going well on your acv journey!
@ktrn I personally drank it before. Me personally have stopped taking it and started meditation when I get the feeling. I have cured almost 100% of my reflux. Definitely give it a shot everyone is different.
Don't be angry Steve, let it go, be thankful and grateful that you find a natural cure for your acid reflux. I am going to try this. Thank you for sharing.
Great news! I’ll have to make that for my husband. He doesn’t take the daily meds anymore, but lots of Rolaids. I just give him AC vinegar in water when he has an issue. I think he’d like your drink better!😊!
I just wanted to stop by and say THANK YOU! I am on the 4th week of this ACV tonic and it has worked marvelously. I have burped 500-700+ times a day for the past three years without any relief. I also dealt with having to clear my throat every time I wanted to talk. My doctor had me on Omeprazole and I literally quit cold turkey after watch this video. Everything you said made complete sense. And sure enough, it worked! I haven't burped excessively since Day TWO of taking the ACV drink... Day 4-5 off of Omeprazole was rough, but looking back on it now I am so glad I made the decision to give this a try. It was a hail mary that actually worked. I even had two bowls of chili last night and slept like a baby. I can't thank you enough for taking time to share this secret with the world!
I'm thinking I am not one of the lucky ones as I'm on day 9 and experiencing lots of acid reflux - miserable. I'm not wanting to go back on a PPI, but I may have to. As long as I don't eat it seems to be OK. I'm 71.
@@GallowayKelly Yes it did help at the time for me. I later realized that I had parasites in my gut that had destroyed most of my good bacteria. Once I did a parasite cleanse (with a holistic doctor), all of my issues were fixed. I no longer have burping issues or clearing throat issues. - Do your best to find the underlying cause vs treating a symptom.
His Apple Cider Vinegar Tonic: 2 quarts Water 2/3 cup Apple Cider Vinegar 1/3 cup Lemon Juice 1/3 teaspoon pink Himalayan sea salt (finely ground) 1/3 teaspoon powdered ginger 2/3 teaspoon cinnamon +liquid stevia for taste
Just to add two pence or two cents worth ..... I have had acid reflux for periods over my lifetime. Never horrendous but took bicarb of soda for a while. However, since drinking acv, lemon juice and pink salt frequently though definitely not daily l haven't had any since. And we must be talking 3 or 4 years. It works. Yes, bicarb of soda did the trick temporary but acv etc works so much better and although I can't say permanently (but so far 3 or 4 years) it's a lot more permanent than anything else I've ever tried.
Thank you so much for the great video! I’ve been on pantoprazole 20mg for little over a year now. I have not slept laying flat for 14 month now due to night time reflex. I raise my head of adjustable bed plus wedge pillow plus extra pillow. As you can imagine, I have not slept well for 14months. I never had depression, but I have days where I feel really hopeless and depressed for all the pain and discomfort I feel every single day. Recently my ENT doc tried to increase my dose to 40mg. This is the second time I try 40mg, and it did not make my reflux any better, in fact I felt worse both times, which led me to do some research and Im deciding to slowly wean off of the med within next 3 months. Your video gave me great hope. Thank you so much!!!
I was very lucky, when I started the ketogenic lifestyle my acid reflux went away. On the rare occasion I do get it now I drink a little pickle juice and it totally goes away. If you wake up in the middle of the night with reflux, don't reach for the tums, reach for the pickle juice. :)
Me too! I have it so rarely that when I do have it, I am able to make a mental note of what I had eaten before I had it and not eat much of it next time or not make it again . (all of it is strict keto but almost always involves a keto baked goods I have made) I started feeling it come on again yesterday after eating two small lemon poppy seed muffins made with almond flour and coconut flour. I noted that I had coffee in that time window as well and that I had only one of these with coffee the previous day and did not get that response. So, my lemon poppy seed consumption ,if any, will be only one small with coffee. I didnt get full blown acid reflux with this product but I could feel it start and then settle but still, I wont take the risk of it going full blown. Keto pizza does the same thing. one slice only.
@@topherjoe1 if you're interested investigate oxalates. That may be part of your problem too. Sally K. Norton has some youtube videos explaining it and her site is www.sallyknorton.com.
Good for you Steve! You’re even looking younger...no kidding. ACV is amazing!! Thank you for sharing!! If more people shared their successes and affects of “functional medicine” or “food as medicine” maybe one day the insurance companies will start to reimburse people for preventative care and recognize that the drugs just mask the issue; they rarely ever cure the problem!!
I was on omeprazole but had a great doctor who suggested a blood test to find out what foods I may be allergic to that may be causing the heartburn. I cut out the foods I was allergic to and slowly come off the medication and have never had an issue, unless I eat things that dont agree with me. I thank that doctor every day for not just writing a prescription and sending me on my way. Also congratulations and I hope this is a lifetime change.
@@denisabrooks6456 TY so much for Your quick reply & sharing this information with others. Our bodies have been battered & poisoned for so long, it's a wonder we are able to marginally function. Hoping more can realize we don't need drugs - we need to STOP eating poisons. TY Grrrl!! Wise woman!!
Steven: Thank you a million times for posting and sharing this video. I took the ACV straight shot without adding other condiments, first one was great, second one 12 hrs later in the morning gave me a bit of upset stomach but absolutely no reflux. I will be more conservative on the next one with adding water and other condiments. Thanks again.
I discovered I had silent acid reflux (LPR) a few weeks ago and after doing some research I found out that ACV is good for ppl with low stomach acid and so I tried this product to see if that’s the case with me and it worked. It’s been about a week and a half. I drink it every time I feel any acid coming up my throat and it gave me relief. Drink it through a straw ppl. Another tip to help with LPR is to gargle with water and baking soda. This will help get the pepsin out of your throat and relieve some of the symptoms that affects your ears and nose. Finally, use honey to help your esophagus heal. I’m so happy to have found a solution so quick because many ppl suffer for years with this. But don’t give up ppl be consistent and have faith that it will work.
Well "hi" again, 😊 I tried the Apple cider vinegar, I just sprinkle it on my food and WOW what a difference, it cured my acid reflux instantly. Unbelievable. I refused medication as I won't take poison. I had terrible acid reflux and it was getting so bad I couldn't eat anything at all. Apple cider vinegar really works. 👍
When you threw the pills in the trash I immediately thought,, ". Savage" I'll do this exact same thing once I stop at whole foods. Thankyou for being a godsend, you've been through so much, so much pain and prolonged suffering but in turn you ended up helping the world. You deserve to be angry, but know that pain will change the lives of so many in the world, hopefully me included, may you be blessed with light onward in your journey
I understand that anger I was given a bipolar diagnosis and was on an antidepressant and lithium for just a hair short of 10 years, premature organ aging was one of the side effects of the Wellbutrin I was on. I had been to several Drs. That just kept prescribing meds, it turns out I have CPTSD not bipolar. No one bothered to ask me at the time of diagnosis about my childhood or my marriage at the time with an alcoholic. I have been free of taking daily meds since 2012. Thank you for this video. I started having mild heartburn with frequent burping for 2 weeks. I was semi freaking out because being careful with waiting to drink before and after a meal wasn’t working. I’m going to be making your recipe today to start healing my gut 👍🏻
I understand your anger. I feel the same way. I have been to numerous Doctors with no answers for 45 years!! All they do is prescribe. I have asthma which is 100% caused by GERD. I am going to try your tonic and follow keto diet and somehow I know my asthma will improve dramatically. Thanks for the recipe. I just found out about acv.
Yup. It’s been a month to straight tablespoons in water a day. I have to say my reflux is 90% gone. And I’m optimistic. Plus, incredibly, my nighttime and early morning leg cramps are 100% gone. I don’t know why, but I’m sure glad. Thanks Steve 😊👏👍🙏
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I’m on day 7 with this tonic without omeprazole and I haven’t felt this good in months. I ate a whole box of pizza with no reflux. God bless you.
@Sousen M i have LPR for a week and i have no idea about LPR until my throat felt like someone is choking me or cutting it with a knife whenever i eat food especially every night, the pain is worse.. The pain lasts for about 1hr. Then i tried the ACV approach and after 5days my symptom improved. The throat pain is almost gone as of writing this. But today i did not take ACV as I am drinking apple juice instead. Last night I dont have throat pain before sleeping. So i can say that natural treatment works for me as long as i will stay away from triggers. Knoww your triggers. I write a journal daily of everything that i eat and drink. And i can say that what triggers me most is the tomato sauce/spag sauce. Also oily food and fried foods can trigger me. As well as fried egg with yolk. But boiled egg white is just fine.
@Sousen M i want to give u an update about my LPR symptoms. I did the ACV treatment for 3-5days. Then followed it with strict low-aicd diet, i strictly avoided all the food that triggers the reflux including eggs, white breads and fried foods. I started doing it August 2 and as of today, writing this, my symptom was gone! I also boosted my vitamin supplements that i have researched from forums and fb groups.. i couldnt believe it worked for me.. now i will continue my routine for 2-3months to avoid relapse.. 😊
What?! You can eat a whole of pizza without having reflux acid? I used to able eat a whole of pizza but now I can't even finish 1 slice of pizza. I had GERD since August 2021. I had endoscopy since November 2021. I am able to swallow easily thanks to someone who used to have tracheostomy and g-tube was learned to breathe and swallow with breathing and swallowing exercises. (She doesn't have tracheostomy and g-tube anymore and hers was removed since she was mid teenage age.) I have same medicine. That would give me hope. I am still researching about GERD.
I’m going to start your tonic. I’ve had gerd/acid reflux gastritis for years. I don’t know if anyone has experience this, but sometimes at night time while sleep, acid travels all the way throat, waking up in panic gasping for air not being able to breath until I stand up and acid return back down. That is the worst feeling. Not being able to breath. Good luck and blessings to all of you suffering with this issue. And thank you for putting up this tonic.
I had that once. Absolutely terrifying. I hope this works for you. I'd encourage you to watch the one year follow-up video, where I answer a lot of questions you might have.
I too got hung up on prescriptions.. more like 3 yrs. But then started learning other options. Can't swallow the ACV because it burns too, but found DGL tabs, ACV tabs, so helpful, no more meds, but I've mixed up your tonic for the cure. Now it's nutrition, keto, and now learning about "earthing". Thank you for all you do.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
1) How can this work when ACV and lemon juice are acidic? The problem is that (based on what I've read) as much as 80% of people who suffer from GERD/reflux actually have LOW stomach acid. Because of this the lower esophageal sphincter at the top of the stomach does not get the signal to close, thereby allowing acid up into the esophagus. The acid in the ACV triggers the lower esophageal sphincter to close.
2) How do I know if I have low stomach acid? Mix 1/4 tsp of baking soda with a small glass of water. Drink it and see how long it takes you to burp. If more than 5 minutes (or not at all), you have low stomach acid.
3) Why does it burn my throat when I drink it? Probably because your esophagus has been made raw by stomach acid. I found that after about a week, it didn't burn nearly as much for me.
4) Does this work for silent reflux? I had a lot of symptoms of silent reflux and it worked for me. I can't guarantee it will work for you, but the burp test I describe in question #2 should be a good indicator.
5) What if I have a hiatal hernia? I can't advise you on that. I had mine repaired a number of years ago when I had surgery to fix an inguinal hernia.
6) Can I just take ACV capsules? Maybe. They didn't work for me. Neither did betaine HCL. But perhaps I wasn't taking enough to equal the amount of acidity in liquid apple cider vinegar.
7) Should I keep taking my reflux meds? I did not. My logic is that they would be fighting the very thing I'm trying to accomplish with the ACV. This is NOT medical advice, though. I'm just sharing what I did, whether it was smart or not.
8) Do I need to make the tonic or can I just drink the ACV in water? You can drink it in water. ACV is the primary ingredient. The other ingredients have health benefits, but most make this tonic more palatable.
9) Will I have to drink this for the rest of my life or just 30 days? It's been over 3 years since I've been on reflux meds or had symptoms. I found that I was able to gradually dial back my consumption to the point where I just mix 2TB of ACV with a small glass of water and chug it down before bedtime once or twice per week.

Appreciate you sharing your experience and research.
I've been on esomeprazole for the last two years. Recently been able to taper it to 20 mg once in two days. Tried the stomach acid test and burped in a minute. This means I do not have low stomach acid(?)
Any known remedies for this? Thanks!
March 16 2021 this video absolutely changed my life.
I had acid reflux my entire life. When I was 16 I had my esophagus looked at and was told that I had the beginning stages of barrettes esophagus and would need to be on antacids for the rest of my life. Fast forward 15 years and many failed attempts to get off of the antacids; I ended up on omeprozole for a few years and started having major symptoms.
I was now 30 years old and felt like a 80 year old. My life was miserable and I truly believed that this was how the rest of my life would be, or worse.
I prayed to God to lead me to the answer that would fix this and that I was willing to do whatever it took. I found this video that same day and went on a health journey that lead to me going from 200lbs and absolutely crazy amounts of pain and inflammation (from my diet) and of course life long acid reflux to 130-140lbs, getting rid of my inflammation, and no longer taking any acid reflux medication period.
I am so thankful that God lead me to this video and that I found it again to come back and just say thank you!
And thank you for sharing your wonderful success story. Congrats on your health turnaround!
Your experiences sound great! Just stumbled upon this video now, all thanks to the algorithm - not any imaginary friend ;) Looking forward to implementing this video tip after a decade of PPI !

Doctors are excellent for emergency situations and reducing pain. But when it comes to chronic illnesses, they seem to only be able to put bandaids on the issue.
You hit the nail on the head!
Right on !!
@V should’ve seen my journey with anxiety and panic disorder and trying to talk to a doctor about it.
Bang on! So totally true.
The doctors touting covid vaccines are the same demographic of morons who, for more than a half century and counting, mistakenly think cholesterol is the cause of inflammation. Smh.
This is why healthcare is so broken. Treating symptoms, not curing disease, is what is profitable.
Absolute truth
Bingo!
@@crand20033 yes, it's a vicious cycle
I would say its more towards the culture in medicine, since its founded in a more naturalistic and mechanical perspective to treat illness and diseases by giving them a prescription to fix it all in which most times suppose to work.
you can thank the Rothchilde;s for that. They are who destroyed the American Holistic Hospital system with their pharma suppression therapy models, the FDA enforcer and the CDC marketing arm that we have today. ALL are corrupt to the core and have zero interest in healing. The war to kill alternatives that do is still raging.
GERD and heartburn were gone since I started drinking ACV. I am having roughly 2 tablespoon of ACV with 500 ml water 2~3 times a day. I didn't add any other recipes on my drink. I felt moderate relief within a day of drinking ACV, and now its been a month. GERD is gone. Thank you so much!
Before meal or after?

@@Avlysh I didnt measure the exact weight of ACV. but just tried to drink it as often. I usually had 5~8 spoons for a liter of water
@@김준수-c6l Is it normal for your throat to burn after?? Also, how long did ACV work for you??
do you have it before or after meals?
I'm getting a lot of comments telling me that it was KETO, not ACV, that cured my reflux. I can tell you that keto helped and it allowed me to reduce my daily dose of Pantoprazole from 40mg/day down to 20mg/day -- but if I went more than 2-3 days without meds, the reflux returned. That's after being on keto for a year. Since starting drinking ACV tonic twice a day, I haven't had an issue since day #4. I am quite convinced that increasing the acid in my system via this tonic is what has freed me from reflux and the associated meds.
Serious Keto it is the ACV curing your acid reflux. I know this because I researched and did the same thing! What people don’t realise is acids reflux is cause by LACK OF ACID in the stomach to break down a big meal, and as it coats the meal trying to break it down it then comes back up the oesophagus . Adding ACV to your stomach before a meal acts the same way as stomach acid and is therefore able to break down the meal without the struggle 🤷🏼♀️👍🏻stomach acid naturally depletes as we age it’s unavoidable some more and some less than others. Doctors are too quick to give you a pill for everything and the pills for acid reflux are dangerous. But they won’t tell you this either! What the pills do is STOP your stomach acid function completely. You are effectively now a giant rotting garbage pile because the food is slowly rotting inside instead of how it should break down 🤷🏼♀️. This in turn causes skin issues , dizzy spells , heart problems, liver issues the list is massive I could go on and on ! Get the ACV it works and it’s safer I was on omeprazole for 18 years, not realising at any time this medication could of killed me 👍🏻
He shoots; He scores. Luckily for me, I don't have any reflux but the apple pie tonic just sounds like a nice drink. And yes! I know want a plunger pitcher.
I just like how people will tell you what helped you like they was there or in your body and see how your body feel lol before I started keto I started ACV years before and cured mine didnt even know keto was a thing and was not eating healthy at all so keto do not fix everything sometimes you need something else
The increase in acidity will also help with vitamin absorption, helps me with insulin resistance. Glad you're okay! I enjoy your videos
@@jameslucas5590 Skip the plastic pitcher and use glass instead.
This is why I fired my doctor and started managing my own health. I'm a better doctor for myself than anyone ever was for me
@ April.... Amen!!
I realized this myself
April F......I realized that after my botched knee replacement that hurts more than the arthritis ever did. I'm missing a few parts that I wonder if I could have kept.
Most doctors suck first GI doctor I went to told me what i was eating and drinking had nothing to do with my problems. I was eating all fast food and only soda.... of course that caused most of my problems... these doctors are just quick to prescribe medication because they want a patient for life... they don't want us knowing the cures.

I watched this video two years ago when I was losing weight rapidly because I couldn't swallow well with GERD. You encouraged me a lot so I decided to take apple cider vinegar too. Now I am back, fully free of GERD, and eating normally for about a year now. I cannot thank you enough. 💖💖💖

Please get checked for mineral deficiencies, that will have been brought on by creating life, and could also be due to (like my family), mthfr, mineral deficiencies (from gluten allergy destroying the gut and causing mineral absorption issues, mold exposure. Etc.
You can rebuild your stomach acid with apple cider vinegar; but that does not answer why it was happening you see; all you’ve now done is use (holistic means) to suppress a symptom / expression etc.
Mam I'm suffering from gastritis since from 1 year please say me that did you get rid of gastritis cure mam please reply me .
I feel your anger. That has ALWAYS been my issue. Doctors are taught what medicine to prescribe, not what to use nutritionally to address an issue. They’re still on the eat less, move more, low fat, less red meat train. Praying someday there will more widespread medical enlightenment.
So true.
Unfortunately there is no incentive to "awaken" to the natural treatments, in fact there are powers at play (big pharma) working against this info becoming wildly available.

Hi from turkey, if you have low stomach asid, you will be sick and sense reflux, so vinegar make your stomach asit level 1-3 ph, so your stomach works good, in addition you can use betain HCL+pepsin for 1-2 month, after that you may reduce HCL and put some vinegar instead of HCL, finally you may continue with vinegar after that , if your stomach asit is good , 1-3 ph, your spinchter will close, spincter is door of stomach and osaphagus , thank you and sorry to my English 😅

You don’t how you’re changing people’s life. I’ve been on PPI for a year or so ( on and off)
Tried everything! From taking bland food to giving up on my favourite foods. Especially, coffee, dairy, tomatoes, and pickles !!!
It made me feel terrible for a year ! It started in November 2020. I saw your video long back but then saw another video of Tama saying no you shouldn’t take ACV ! Kept wondering what to do but few weeks back I was so frustrated and I thought want the heck ! This is the only thing i haven’t tried. Lemme just try and guess what ! IT WORKED ON THE FIRST DAY !! I took and I literally felt no pain or reflux on the Same day ! I’m on day 10th and I’ve already had coffee 2 times. I didn’t touch coffee in past 2 years !! It was such a liberating feeling.
I can’t thank you enough !!!
And I’m also angry on these docs ! Without checking the ph they just give antacids !
My metal health was ruined 😭 I used to cry myself to sleep and wonder why is it happening to me !! You saved me ! You saved me !! I’ll always be thankful and grateful ❤️
And I hope this comment give hope to people who are going through this !!
Just give it a try and see how body responds and please don’t trust the negative things online, which say you can’t cure this !

I was put on those same pills as you. I had another episode this past week and finally I gave in. I took it and by the 3 day my acid reflux went away! I noticed this past week my swollen belly has gone down, I have energy and I'm in a better mood. I take 2 tbsp of apple cider vinegar and a little agave in a 6-8 ounce glass of water before I eat. I'm so relieved! I can finally sleep laying down and without pain! Thank you so much for your video! God bless!

Wowwwww I’m been struggling with acid reflux/GERD since the age of 15. I’m now 27 and currently taking pantoprazole 40mg AND Famotidine 40 mg before bed. I find myself in pain 70% percent of the time and literally getting anxiety before eating a meal because I don’t know if it’s gonna digest or leave me in excruciating pain. I’m on day three of trying this method with just 8 ounces of water twice a day and already I feel better than I have in MONTHS. I haven’t even touched any of my medication and have been able to eat freely. Very frustrating that after YEARS of doctors appointments something so natural and easy turned into a solution. Guess it’s not doctors jobs to hip you to natural remedies, I mean how else will they get paid if we don’t buy up all these pills right? Very happy I found this video.
I'm so glad it works for you.
How have your symptoms been after three weeks now?
Talking About What Tho Still feeling great, even got to try some spicy dishes that I haven’t had in years. The only thing I would recommend is to not drink any alcohol the first 14 days of trying this. I slipped up once and drunk during the 14 days and went to sleep with slight acid pains but the other 13 days felt great and now weeks later I’m still enjoying the relief as well as drinking and eating with no issue.
Nessa H I’ll echo the comment on alcohol. I don’t drink beer since I’m keto, and I find I don’t have reflux issues if I have a couple glasses of wine, but any amount of hard liquor causes major nighttime reflux.
@@SeriousKeto Where have guys been for the past year of my life.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
1) How can this work when ACV and lemon juice are acidic? The problem is that (based on what I've read) as much as 80% of people who suffer from GERD/reflux actually have LOW stomach acid. Because of this, the lower esophageal sphincter at the top of the stomach does not get the signal to close, thereby allowing acid up into the esophagus. The acid in the ACV triggers the lower esophageal sphincter to close.
2) How do I know if I have low stomach acid? Mix 1/4 tsp of baking soda with a small glass of water. Drink it and see how long it takes you to burp. If more than 5 minutes (or not at all), you have low stomach acid.
3) Why does it burn my throat when I drink it? Probably because your esophagus has been made raw by stomach acid. I found that after about a week, it didn't burn nearly as much for me.
4) Does this work for silent reflux? It did for me.
5) What if I have a hiatal hernia? I can't advise you on that. I had mine repaired a number of years ago when I had laparoscopic surgery to fix an inguinal hernia.
6) Can I just take ACV capsules? Maybe. They didn't work for me. Neither did betaine HCL. It's possible my dose wasn't high enough. Taking the capsules may be right for you if you need some time to let your esophagus heal enough that the ACV doesn't burn going down.
7) Should I keep taking my reflux meds? I did not. My logic is that they would be fighting the very thing I'm trying to accomplish with the ACV.
8) Do I need to make the tonic or can I just drink the ACV in water? You can drink it in water. ACV is the primary ingredient. The other ingredients have health benefits, but most make this tonic more palatable.
9) Will I have to drink this for the rest of my life or just 30 days? It's been a year since I've been on reflux meds or had symptoms. I found that I was able to gradually dial back my consumption to the point where I just mix 2TB of ACV with a small glass of water and chug it down before bedtime once per week.

I'm so happy to hear that.
what time of day i have to take AGV. On an empty stomach each morning ? or before the meals and dinners ? can u please tell me in detail ?
So I started trying this tonic and noticed my symptoms increased which is strange because ACV helps my reflux, but I found out for me it’s the lemon juice! Now I’m taking just the other ingredients as a tonic and it’s been helping! So if you’re having the same issue maybe try and drop the lemon juice or cinnamon as these can cause reflux in some people and try again. Don’t give up on the ACV!
Thanks for sharing your results.
Yes lemon juice isn't for everyone, you don't need the cinnamon for any other reason than flavoring, so not required, substitute those with raw honey, takes away the sharpness and adds it's own flavor ! Can I also suggest looking at videos on YT on ACV & Olive Oil, put the two together and according to these videos you should live to 100 minimum 😂
thank you for sharing your experience

I'm 57 and have had acid reflux since my teens - my lifelong friend has been Tums & Rolaids. I finally was prescribed Omeprazole 4 years ago - which worked well, but not when I ate chilies at night! LSS, I went off of that cold turkey 6 weeks ago, cause I hated being on medicine. Needless to say, my reflux returned with a vengeance, so I basically had to stop eating by 4 pm to get any sleep at all. This was doable, but clearly wasn't a long term solution. Then I saw this video. Wow! Today I'm on day 14 of ACV tonic taking and am simply amazed - no reflux and I'm sleeping like a baby. It's nothing short of an answer to prayer - a miracle! Thank you so much for uploading this. God bless!

I worked in 3 medical clinics for 13 years. I was so shocked to find out that GPs hardly learned anything on diet and nutrition in medical school! I was diagnosed with Acid Reflux too and prescribed Nexium and Tecta. I like to read literature or contraindications. One time I read the one on Nexium and I couldn't believe the serious adverse side effects written there. One of the doctors I worked with prescribed a PPI and told me to take it for 6 months. Good thing I read an article online that says you shouldn't take it for that long. So obviously, these doctors don’t know what they're doing!!! Thanks for sharing your experience with ACV. I might do that too!

If my GERD acted up soon after my anxiety would follow. I thought I was going crazy and didn't know which way to turn next. I turned to your channel after a desperate night of searching for help. I am glad to say that I am feeling a million times better and my mental state has improved drastically. Thank you for sharing this video it has definately changed my life for the better. Some foods I still stay away from but for the most part, I can relax when choosing what I eat.
Reading this makes me very happy. Congrats!
I have the same thing you had thank you for telling us your experience ... you really made me happy I will start treating with the acd tonics ... and finally thank you all guys I love you all !
Hey.....I am dealing with the same problem right now...I just want to ask you a question ....when you were taking pantoprazole you had symptoms even after eating wheat or not ???
Plzz tell
Exact same thing i am facing. The anxiety..my o my.....its like going crazy about which positon to lie down or to sit...or wheteher to puke...or to burb..or to control the anxiety symptoms, the bloating in the upper stomach along with nausea and burning.........will ACV help???I am tired of being unhappy...
Same!!! I started to have muscle spasms in my neck too.. definitely can make you feel crazy and alone.. I started this today, already feeling a difference. Thank you for this video! ❤️
I have suffered GERD for months and got to know ACV via your videos. From the first day my symptoms improved and within 4 days GERD almost disappeared. I have light stomach ache still but hopefully it will go as well. Thank you very much for your videos and everyone commented their experiences which make huge impact.
@@ku1301 thanks so much for sharing your experience
THIS WORKS!!!!! I am on week 3 now and almost completely symptom free. I have only used acv, not ginger etc. two times a day. The first week I almost quit because the acv almost came back up again but now my reflux is in remission. I almost can not believe it! THANK YOU
Thank you for sharing your experience. The tail end of the first week can be rough. I'm glad you toughed it out. 👍
Hey, I’m currently on the first week in and man does it suck atm. Could you tell me how long it too before your saw symptoms improving? Thank you
@@derpytrollingHow’s it going for you bud? I’m on day 2.
Dr. Berry often talks about "big pharma" and their fixes. How ridiculous is it to take medicines with such awful side effects and could just cure it naturally for less than $20 a year or so. Glad you got your issue resolved 😊
The painful sensation of heartburn has been vanished since I started out applying this heartburn treatment t.co/yGqhYaiClu I had been able to do my normal routines again! I`ve eaten spicy food, take out, I have tried and tested and am 100% happy with the results!?
Ah yes i am the 1% of the population, these side effects are totally going to affect me.
I’m happy for you to get out of medications! I hope there are more people with acid reflux will see your video and they can fix their problems. There are always a way to cure our illness but we just don’t know it yet and we rely on the doctors.
I am so glad I found this video. I have had silent reflux for about 5 years. I looked into Apple Cider Vinegar when it first happened and my doctor (who was a naturopath) warned me that AC Vinegar could make it worse so I was scared to really try it. But I fired that doctor and I started using ACV and it has immediately made me feel better, but I have still been nervous about it. After watching your video, I am no longer scared but I am excited to use it every day.
@@maggiewhiteside4463 how has it worked for you? hopefully well
So... 15 years of medication (expense) NEVER cured the problem.... but ONE MONTH of ACV tonic.... CURED!
@Miss Deb After a month of consuming ACV and got cured, are you still drinking ACV up to this day or only occasionaly?
@@vanillaice7576 I make it by the 2-1/2 gallon fridge container. Distilled water, add 2 cups ACV, 1 cup lemon juice, several table spoons of electrolytes mixed in and a teaspoon of trace minerals, and liquid Stevia... Pour over ice, add a little mint-flavored chlorophyll (NOW brand). You'll thank me later. 😎. When you do this, it's even easier to maintain. Streamlined nutrition! This really cleanses internally, energizes, and cuts the appetite! Plus it is minty-lemony-apply delicious!!🌿🍋🌿 🍏🌿🍎🌿🍋
Congrats!!! Do you drink it before every meal?
@@vanillaice7576 I have really grown to enjoy it. I buy acv in large quantity and the volcano lemon juice bottles at Costco -- when my lemon tree runs out of lemons. I think I drink some version of it most every day.
@@stevenvitkovich8224 no, but almost every day...
Your anger resonated with me. I am a nurse who works in GI. It really frustrates me to see patients come in so sick, and all they get are pills to put down their throats, which I would not put in my mouth. Knowing that there are other ways to fix these things is so hard. I will often tell patients that it's a good idea to really do Research into their conditions to make sure they're happy with the way their treatment is going. I hope they do and figure out alternatives.
I am happy you did!
Your wisdom is correct for the PEOPLE. May GOD BLESS YOU
You may as well start giving them whatever y'all doctors usually do, and then on the side give them the link to this video or something, hint at it.. be a little slick if you got to.
Perfect timing! I started Keto last Nov and was able to stop taking Protonix just a couple of weeks ago. I had been on it for over 2 decades. I can't stand the ACV taste but found capsules on Amazon with the Mother that I take everyday. I also stopped all alcohol consumption as well. Best move I ever made. Plan to have a glass of wine here and there. Doctors only know how to prescribe meds and hardly ever have a conversation about diet.
What capsules do you use send link
@@hanahcherisselewis amzn.to/2BQlDPT
PLEASE keep us posted
Wasn’t sure pills would work as well so this is good to hear. I LOVE my wine so not willing to forego unless it will truly harm me.
Jeffrey Litcofsky - THANK YOU!
I couldnt sleep for months. Even now the reflux woke me up and found your video. Going to start tjis tomorrow and will update you every week.
I would encourage you to try the "burp test" I describe in the one year follow-up video, as that will be a pretty good indicator as to whether this will work for you. It's been 3 years since I started consuming ACV and 3 years I have been reflux free. I currently only drink it once per week, before bedtime. I just put 2 TB in a small glass of warm water and chug it down like a shot. Good luck!
@@ethiowhitehat how is your health now?
@@ethiowhitehat how are you now sir?
I was in the same boat - on reflux meds for over 20 years. I started fasting in 2016 and after my 3rd 5-day water fast (one every 3 months) my reflux has healed, never to return. In 2018 I started eating keto and have had no problems. It's so nice to be 49 years old and on zero prescriptions! Kudos Steve! Keep up the good work!
49 and zero prescriptions? Hell, I'm 66 and never take anything :)
Pippa Carron - well I’m almost 70 and no prescriptions, ever.
It would be of great help to me, if you can tell what exactly is water fasting. I'm ready to do anything to get rid of this problem 😔

Really ... I wish I will be cured with ACV
@@mariemorris5979 hi marie.. if you have the copy. Please send me personally.
Congratulations on getting off those meds!! I found my acid reflux completely goes away when I’m not eating wheat and/or sugar. I would like to try your tonic for the other health benefits. Doctors will never look at nutrition as a cause or cure because there’s no money in it for them. Watching my mom go through 2 years of a sinus infection, pill after pill, surgery and 3 doctors later we decided to replace the rug in her bedroom and it all went away. Doctors don’t look at environmental aspects either. But all this made me turn to holistic ways to treat everything.
I did this! ACV replaced my PPIs of over 20 years! I totally related to both the frustration and celebration of this video!
Awesome. Thanks for sharing your success story. 👍🏻
I get blood with my acid reflux tablets don’t do anything for me.. going to try this
Wow. Did you change anything else @debbykellis1122
@@freakdancing4144 I stopped eating after 6pm. lying down with an empty stomach really helps
I had been on Pantoprazole for GERD for more years than I can remember. As a nurse, I had asked my GP about possible serious side effects when she prescribed it, and the only thing she mentioned was that I would have a B12 vit. deficiency down the road. The pharmacist never even bothered to warm me about side effects. It is not meant to be taken long term! Well I winded up being rushed to the ER with such serious stomach pain that I had to go on sick leave for 3 months. I won't go into detail about other symptoms, but all were related to horrible digestion and elimination. Then I stumbled upon this amazing video. All I can say is that it has totally changed my life. I quit Pantoprazole cold turkey and with the help of AVC 3 to 4 times a day, along with going keto, it took all of 3 weeks for my acid reflux to disappear. So thank you for sharing your story!
Hi, have you been through endoscopy?
@@serendipity_project Yes I have 😊 They couldn't find anything wrong though.
@@clairehachey2189 so there is no sign like hyper acidty or bile reflux, or stomach ulcer? And, may I know what were the symptoms you had?
@@serendipity_project I had excruciating stomach pain which sent me to Emerg. After viewing this video and doing my own research on the severe side effects of Pantoloc, I immediately stopped taking it. As a nurse, I eliminated every other possibility as to what could have happened to cause such sudden and horrible stomach pain and found nothing. I've been pain free since quitting Pantoloc. Not only that, but my health and general sense of well-being improved drastically. My GP was no help at all. This video truly changed my life!
@@serendipity_project Absolutely no signs of an ulcer. Yes I had reflux, but that was due to eating too many carbs. I also know that my stomach was very low on acid from taking a proton pump inhibitor. In my research, I found that not only a high % of adults suffer from GERD, but it affects young people also. Very scary!
I had to come back and report! My incessant acid reflux is gone!!! About 9 days in or so, I realized all of my terrible symptoms were just gone!! I'm SOO thankful! Thank you for making this video!

I have gerd for more than 15 years. 3 weeks ago it got really anoying. What ever i ate i felt bad. I just saw your post, not having much hope gave it a try. I used fresh lemons though. Now after 3 weeks drinking one glass in the morning I feel great. I do not know how it works but it does from the first days. Not just gerd but my stomach feels relaxed. No dull pains no feeling full...
Thanks for sharing your results. I'm glad it worked for you.
Congratulations Steve. I've come to learn that our physicians are taught medicine by the drug companies. Veterinarians give their animal patients better care than our doctors give us. The first question a vet asks when seeing an animal patient is, what are you feeding your pet? Our doctors should be asking us the same question!
Great point
Based on my 25 yrs in Healthcare: TRUE: "I've come to learn that our physicians are taught medicine by the drug companies." However: after 25 yrs of animal rescue: Not True. "Veterinarians give their animal patients better care than our doctors give us." While, vets seem to add nutrition into an evaluation commonly, what I have seen is AGAIN the drug companies own the field.
@@georgebarry8640 Yes. The vet has destroyed my dad's dog. My dad believes and follows pharmaceutical bullshit for himself and Duke. It's heartbreaking to watch but no one listens to me.
Most mainstream veterinarians are just as bad. Holistic vets will be more health based and not use asinine techniques and pharmaceutical poisons.
If doctors would only treat us like dogs, we'd get better 🤷♂️🎯💯🤣
After watching your video I decided to take the leap and have been drinking acv tonics twice a day for a week now. So far the biggest thing I've noticed is my sleep has gotten better. I usually wake up every night around 4am with mild heartburn, depending on what I eat. Since drinking acv I have been sleeping through the night. I don't feel any heartburn through the day and after drinking a glass last night it also helped ease gas I was having.
I even had some wine on the weekend and did just fine. I have however, given up coffee for the time being, and changed the recipe slightly to:
- 1tbsp Acv
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1/4 tsp ginger
- 1/4 tsp Ceylon cinnamon
- 1 tsp Manuka honey
But, overall it has been making a difference. I look forward to reporting back at the end of my 30 days.
Glad to hear it's working for you!
I'm happy for you keep up
I’ve had reflux for years. Never had heart burn but I had the cough like you. I was put on prilosec and I took it for a year. I had the same symptoms as you and I was told it was part of my job and my weight. A couple of years ago I came home from a Disney World vacation with an upper respiratory infection and I lost my voice. Months later I still did not get my voice back even though I had gotten over the infection. I went to an Ear, Nose and Throat doctor and was told I had plaque on my vocal chords causing the laryngitis. After being on numerous medications I did a little research and found that acid reflux could cause the plaque on the vocal chords. I told my doctor this after I found out and he put me on prilosec. Lo and behold within a week I had my voice back but I kept taking the med for 1 month and stopped again because I knew taking it for a prolonged amount of time causes problems. I started the apple cider tonic and never looked back. So happy that you found this and that you stopped taking those meds.
did you take it in the same way? like the tonic in the video?
Same procedure u take sir
Sounds like you had LPR
Did your cough and other LPR symptoms completely go away regardless of what you eat?
Don’t be sad man, don’t be angry.. because of you many people will have a better future. 🙏🏻 Thank you for this.
Hey Steve, I've been using the apple cider vinegar mix for over a month now. Been off the reflux medication as well. Not only has my acid reflux been controlled, but my back pain and bruised bone pain has disappeared. Thanks so much for sharing this video. Bobby Moore
That’s fantastic. 👍🏻
ACV is great like that. I was able to get rid of Uric acid (gout) drinking ACV for just a few days.
B Moore how many years you had acid reflux?
How about now!? Still good? Have you had any symptoms?
Hi B Moore, have you been through endoscopy examination?
Thanks for making this video. My doctor misdiagnosed my symptoms of a chronic cough and shortness of breath for asthma instead of gerd. 8 years she had me on high doses of asthma medications. I went in again and again due to fatigue and breathing issues, and she didn't do anything for me. Thankfully I found the cure and switched doctors. I really felt a lot of solidarity with you when you mentioned why you weren't more happy to find a natural cure. I get the same feeling when I get screwed over by a bad mechanic. So much trust goes into people that really don't know what they're doing. The are bred in schools that deny anecdotal evidence. If it works for thousands and thousands of people, maybe that is good enough to start recommending people to try first, instead of life long medications that eat away at your body. But it all becomes clear when you know that the pharmacutical companies fund medical schools, which in turn causes doctors to put people on their products. It's discustingly corrupt when you think about it. Regardless, thanks again for the video, it's helping me remember to get back on track with my health. Cheers!
What cure did you find? Im currently suffering from gerd with shortness of breath and difficulty sleeping.
@@omarct Hi I am also facing the same issues...but haven't tried this yet...??
@@geetagangwar2263 This vinergar stuff did not work for me. My endoscopy showed i have gastritis and gastroparesis, so the vinegar just made things worse.
Thank you for making this video. I just turned 40 and have been experiencing lots of recurring unpleasant health issues that all happens at the same time due to stress. Chronic dry cough, insomnia, cold sores, headaches. I have never taken so many medication like this. I have been having this persistent dry cough mainly at night for the last 4 months and my doctor started me on omeprazole 20 mg. After watching your video, I think I know how this is going end up, but I know what to do now. Will start with diet and sleep. I am thankful for good people like you that cares about other. Cheers!
I do know the med. lisinopril for high blood pressure causes a very dry cough that is hard to get to go away in some people.
It’s a good blood pressure medicine but can cause this.
Never stop taking high blood pressure meds suddenly…talk to your doctor about how to wean off them.
This was such an enlightening video to me! I had the same cough for at least 9 months. I saw an ENT doctor who also told me that I had a little bit of acid reflux but not bad enough to medicate. I just never knew if, when I opened my mouth to talk or sing if I would start coughing without notice. I realized that I had not been coughing for about 6 months when my husband asked me if I had been having acid reflux and the answer is no, not for quite a few months! I do believe after watching this that they are connected and I will try this tonic and keep this information. Thank you!
Did you solve your problems with this tonic? Keep us updated!
Excellent Steve! I fought this one years ago to a point of surgery (nissen fundoplication). I had the same concerns with regard to the long term use of the medicines. In the last year the wife and I have became familiar with a Naturopathic Doctor. It's amazing the difference in approach to an issue and how much better we both feel. Like you, there's more to the story. He's why I have love 50 pounds and still on track for 40 more pounds to goal weight. Keep the video's coming. Great job.
Adopting the keto lifestyle led to me becoming completely migraine-free after having suffered from the condition for over 40 years. Getting rid of ALL my prescription meds for migraines was overwhelming and freeing. Congrats on your success with apple cider vinegar for your acid reflux. ACV is a fantastic addition to the diet for so many reasons.
Be careful with Keto there are studies that show it to be dangerous! If that doesn’t work maybe try a vegan lifestyle , that’s been helpful for me
Thank you. THANK YOU. I'd only been on PPI's for 2 months, but I knew something wasn't right. I did some research, including watching your videos, and jumped in head first! My GERD/reflux symptoms are basically gone and I've only been using ACV for 4 days. I take two tablespoons of ACV in a glass of water, as soon as I wake up each morning, and about 30 minutes prior to my evening meal. I feel great, and I have no acid reflux whatsoever. I think it's also very important to eat well, limit the carbs, and drink plenty of water. Damn those doctors! They should be referring patients to at least trying ACV before PPIs.
Do take any medications ? I take a few and wonder how the ACV affects absorption ?
Hi ma'am must it be acv with the mother? you see i exhauted all of my savings on ppi and antibiotics. acv with the mother is expensive in my country. i do not know if acv without the mother does not have thesame composition as acv with the mother. Atleast i can afford the former
Thank you so much! I started drinking the ACV, and last night (day 5), was the first night I had ZERO symptoms! Instead of 2-3 hours of sleep, I got 7!
❤ Happy that I found your channel!
Thank you for sharing your success. I'm so happy it worked for you.
Can you please tell can we take it while having the symptoms....also while having medicine
Doctors get about 2 hours of nutrition in med school. Needless to say they have no clue and learn to only prescribe medication. Great job! I have been taking ACVfor years and love it.
Your tonic is healing leaky gut, which takes a couple years to fully heal, so keep doing it Bro! I'm at about 9 months of ACV, and not only do I not have reflux EVER (Mine was milder, usually treated with tums), but as PART of my leaky gut healing regimen, my psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis are going away. Healing leaky gut allows you to absorb nutrients that would otherwise just go through your system.
Marko Sharko Are you doing the Keto Diet?
Your video is emotionally uplifting. It gives me hope that this problem isnt lifelong as most people promote it to be. Gonna try the same thing. I appreciate you putting this out here for people to be enlightened on the benefits of acv for gerd.
I recommend watching the 1 year follow up video. Good luck!
Same here! I m suffering from sore throat and taste in my mouth but determined to come off omeprazole after many years! I have weaned off gradually but not through advice from my doctor because took me off Omeprazole then onto Lansoprozole and then back on Omeprazole as he seemed determined to keep me on PPIs. I am going to try Cider Applr Vinegar as last resort. Even pharmacists seem reluctant to criticise PPIs!!
I've been on Esomeprazol for about 13 yrs. and a few other for about 4 yrs. before rhat. I've tried to get off before and always gave up after 3-4 days! I knew for a wile that apple cider vinegar could help but could never choke it down. Recently after getting on keto I found video's that said I could add stevia! Wow what a consept! I never even thought you could just take the edge off of it!! I kinda feel dumb for not thinking of it before because I knew that sugar could take the edge off vinegar because I like to make my own balsamic dressing. So why did this take so long to figure out!! 😰😰😰
I've been doing vinegar and fresh lemon for a week now without the Esomeprazol! I am so glad to be off the poison that is making my bones brittle!! I just found this video because I have been watching your videos and subscribed when I stated keto about 2 months ago now!! Best thing I have ever done and I'm getting my health back!!

Apple Cider Vinegar (AVC)

You got it my friend. Big Pharma makes big money off our ailments.
This video encourages me to go ahead and make my ACV drink. I bought a new bottle of ACV a week ago but have let it sit. Sometimes I hate to try new (to me) things. Thankfully, no acid reflux, but have other issues. I am back doing KETO for a month now and am experiencing so much less joint and back pain, what a blessing! There have been no other changes in my practices but eliminating carbs to 20 grams and less per day. Thanks for the video!
Every body reacts differently to many things the body is a mystery, Doctors can tell you one thing that something is good for you, But your body will let you know for sure, My Doctor said drink apple cider vinegar which I did, this was to help controll high blood pressure, a month later I got Acid reflux bad, my chest hurt and my left arm, It continued for about two and a half months, I went to specialist and he said after I explained what was going on, said I don't think you have acid reflux, I told him also that I had been drinking A C V, told me to stop drinking it which I did, but told me to see a heart doctor which I also did, the results ( Nagitive ) my heart was sound no problems, that same week my acid reflux went away. Apple cider vinegar my help some, but as I said every person's body is different.
You are very very right in everything about the video. I too was diagnosed with GERD / CHRONIC ANTRAL GASTRITIS in October 2021. I followed your video and got rid of medications (3 tablets of Omeprazole 20mg and four lids of DIGENE fluid every day).
I too am somewhat angry why doctors never advised me not to use these medications long term but try alternative remedies.
I am a Himalayan monk who royally ignored the body dynamics in serious pursuit of God and higher truths. The moment I realised it's time to focus on the body (it was disintegrating) I saw your video and had just one teaspoon of ACV twice a day in a glass of water. It worked as perfectly as it did for you.
Purpose of this message is to instill hope and confidence in anyone who comes your way with this problem. Thank You Very Much.
Thank you for sharing your experience
Wht u had breathing issue
Did you ween your self off the pills or just stopped?
@@SpektorBaal I didn't, I couldn't and in fact one shouldn't stop medication just like that. Actually I had a strong stomach acid constitution from birth. Enormous food was absorbed effortlessly without putting on weight. It was a surprise that I got this disease.
The first three weeks of ACV use itself reduced all my medication to just one 20mg pill. This was stubborn and wasn't going. So I stopped consuming white sugar in tea. White sugar as Ayurvedic experts and our dear friend Serious Keto know for sure increases production of certain acids in the stomach that lead to gastritis, ulcers and possibly cancers.
But then your stomach adjusts rapidly with time and will give you lot of flexibility in food choices soon.
Regular walking for one hour repositions your digestive organs and firms them up in their proper shape and place. Duodenum tightens naturally and reflux becomes helpless in being able to trouble your esophagus.
Please try. I am an Indian baba who has ignored body rules for decades. You must be a normal healthy person with proper lifestyle. I am sure you would succeed in due course. You can count on my best wishes and blessings in the process.
@@simarjeetkaur9578 What breathing issues dear Simarjeet Kaur, by any chance you were addressing this question to Serious Keto sir? I had no breathing issues ever.
Table spoon of ACV every morning in a glass of lemon water before food... 2 weeks, " no more acid reflux" !!!!!
Awesome!
May I ask how do you make your lemon water. Thank you.
I am confused. Is it before food or after food? Will it have the same effect?
@@meeranayak Better before food because you need to wait atleast 40-50 min after food to drink water or ACV in this case (my doc suggested not to drink water immediately or in between having food and to give a gap of mentioned duration)
How many tbsp in lemon water? Please tell me.
I can't thank you enough. I asked you before if it's a good idea to get off meds when I've only been on it for 2 months, and you redirected me to the 1 year review video. So I've been drinking ACV for over a week now (went cold turkey off meds) and I feel like I'm cured already. No more globus sensation in the throat (or mostly gone). I can't believe it only took a week and a few spoons of ACV to help me cure my reflux. My problem, like 80% of people, was low acid instead of the opposite. I will continue drinking ACV, and I wish you the best that life has to offer for helping people like me.
Thank you for sharing your experience. I’m so happy to hear that it worked for you. 🙂👍🏻
@@SeriousKeto if I am drinking a cup of ACV. what is the dosage?
How many accounts do you drink? And is it before every meal or how often? Thanks.
Steve, I dont know how to thank you bro. I was dealing with a really really bad case of Acid Reflux for the last 1-2 years. I was on Omeperazole (20mg)... That stopped being effective. So had to go on Domperidone and Esomeprazole (40mg). That helped. But then I found out your video. Got all the ingredients. And boom. Its gone. just like that. I even do alternate days now and its still working... I owe you really big for this. It has changed the quality of life. I meant it. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Also, one recommendation. I use Jaggery (organic cane sugar) which is also suppossed to have acid reflux healing properties... You may want to consider using jaggery powder instead of stevia as part of your tonic
Wonderful!
I was in the same boat you were in. I had something in my throat that kept coming up that wouldn't go away so I went to an ENT doctor. The doctor did a Restech study on me and my acid reflux was off the chart. He gave me the same medication you were taking. I taken the medication for 1 week and said I am not taking this anymore because I'm not a medication type of person, and two it just didn't feel right. I decided to do some research and get rid of this acid reflux naturally. I figure this issue is based on what I am eating and the time of day I'm eating it, so I switched my diet, started doing some research and come across your video about apple cider. Like you, I will take the apple cider for 30 days and throw away the meds, no good for human consumption at all. It's like I'm paying these doctors to break my body down to get worse. Medication have so much side effects to it, they don't tell you that part but they prescribe medicine. Eating naturally, drinking vegetable juicers came to be my routine and I feel so much better and energetic.
Hi Steve, I'm a nurse as well & suffered from reflux 5 years ago (never went on meds-as I hate medication) & came across the ACV/Lemon juice then. It's been 5 years & No more coughing/burning for me! Other nurses at work have started drinking ACV too after seeing my results. In the winter I add cinnamon & Swerve (brn sugar), ( haven't tried ginger) but I heat it up & it tastes like hot apple cider! Pretty Dang yummy.... :-) thank you 4 getting this valuable info out to public! Your Awesome!! God, has a natural cure for just about Everything.....
Oh forgot to mentioned, it got worse for me initially & I gave it 7 days of drinking the ACV/Lemon juice . Then smooth sailng... now take 1a week or if symptoms come up. Don't give up, it works!
@@freetheppl5376 Thanks for the TIPs I expect some kick back as well but I tried everything else so Im going to try this. Heating it up is a good idea, I like that.
@@freetheppl5376 does it relieves burning sensation also in chest and throat?
I've been experiencing gerd for 2years and it amazes me how doctors always say it's high acid when that is not the issue and perscribe you countless pills. Well I have to say I'm 16days in drinking this acv mix and it has changed everything! I'm really thankful for your video! Hope all is still going well on your acv journey!
That's fantastic!
Great. Do you drink it before or after?
@ktrn I personally drank it before. Me personally have stopped taking it and started meditation when I get the feeling. I have cured almost 100% of my reflux. Definitely give it a shot everyone is different.
@@andrewcee4663 I told my doctor to consume apple cider vinegar, but she said you already have high stomach acid and don't drink it anyway.🥺
@@andrewcee4663Have you tried apple cider vinegar? Please help.😢
Don't be angry Steve, let it go, be thankful and grateful that you find a natural cure for your acid reflux. I am going to try this. Thank you for sharing.

That’s our healthcare system for you.
Great news! I’ll have to make that for my husband. He doesn’t take the daily meds anymore, but lots of Rolaids. I just give him AC vinegar in water when he has an issue. I think he’d like your drink better!😊!
I just wanted to stop by and say THANK YOU! I am on the 4th week of this ACV tonic and it has worked marvelously. I have burped 500-700+ times a day for the past three years without any relief. I also dealt with having to clear my throat every time I wanted to talk. My doctor had me on Omeprazole and I literally quit cold turkey after watch this video. Everything you said made complete sense. And sure enough, it worked!
I haven't burped excessively since Day TWO of taking the ACV drink... Day 4-5 off of Omeprazole was rough, but looking back on it now I am so glad I made the decision to give this a try. It was a hail mary that actually worked. I even had two bowls of chili last night and slept like a baby. I can't thank you enough for taking time to share this secret with the world!
That's fantastic! Thanks for sharing your experience. 👍
@@SeriousKeto, and how about your condition for now...? It's been 3 years since your experiment. Thanks for video!!
I'm thinking I am not one of the lucky ones as I'm on day 9 and experiencing lots of acid reflux - miserable. I'm not wanting to go back on a PPI, but I may have to. As long as I don't eat it seems to be OK. I'm 71.
@zwifty7148 how about the throat clearing? Did it help with that too?
@@GallowayKelly Yes it did help at the time for me. I later realized that I had parasites in my gut that had destroyed most of my good bacteria. Once I did a parasite cleanse (with a holistic doctor), all of my issues were fixed. I no longer have burping issues or clearing throat issues. - Do your best to find the underlying cause vs treating a symptom.
His Apple Cider Vinegar Tonic:
2 quarts Water
2/3 cup Apple Cider Vinegar
1/3 cup Lemon Juice
1/3 teaspoon pink Himalayan sea salt (finely ground)
1/3 teaspoon powdered ginger
2/3 teaspoon cinnamon
+liquid stevia for taste
Just to add two pence or two cents worth ..... I have had acid reflux for periods over my lifetime. Never horrendous but took bicarb of soda for a while. However, since drinking acv, lemon juice and pink salt frequently though definitely not daily l haven't had any since. And we must be talking 3 or 4 years. It works. Yes, bicarb of soda did the trick temporary but acv etc works so much better and although I can't say permanently (but so far 3 or 4 years) it's a lot more permanent than anything else I've ever tried.
Thank you so much for the great video! I’ve been on pantoprazole 20mg for little over a year now. I have not slept laying flat for 14 month now due to night time reflex. I raise my head of adjustable bed plus wedge pillow plus extra pillow. As you can imagine, I have not slept well for 14months. I never had depression, but I have days where I feel really hopeless and depressed for all the pain and discomfort I feel every single day. Recently my ENT doc tried to increase my dose to 40mg. This is the second time I try 40mg, and it did not make my reflux any better, in fact I felt worse both times, which led me to do some research and Im deciding to slowly wean off of the med within next 3 months. Your video gave me great hope. Thank you so much!!!
I would encourage you to watch the one year follow-up video. I answer a lot of questions you may have.
I was very lucky, when I started the ketogenic lifestyle my acid reflux went away. On the rare occasion I do get it now I drink a little pickle juice and it totally goes away. If you wake up in the middle of the night with reflux, don't reach for the tums, reach for the pickle juice. :)
Me too! I have it so rarely that when I do have it, I am able to make a mental note of what I had eaten before I had it and not eat much of it next time or not make it again . (all of it is strict keto but almost always involves a keto baked goods I have made) I started feeling it come on again yesterday after eating two small lemon poppy seed muffins made with almond flour and coconut flour. I noted that I had coffee in that time window as well and that I had only one of these with coffee the previous day and did not get that response. So, my lemon poppy seed consumption ,if any, will be only one small with coffee. I didnt get full blown acid reflux with this product but I could feel it start and then settle but still, I wont take the risk of it going full blown. Keto pizza does the same thing. one slice only.
@@topherjoe1 if you're interested investigate oxalates. That may be part of your problem too. Sally K. Norton has some youtube videos explaining it and her site is www.sallyknorton.com.
Kristina Lakutis hey. Great idea👍
can you suggest what to drink or eat i been suffering since 4 months
Good for you Steve! You’re even looking younger...no kidding. ACV is amazing!! Thank you for sharing!! If more people shared their successes and affects of “functional medicine” or “food as medicine” maybe one day the insurance companies will start to reimburse people for preventative care and recognize that the drugs just mask the issue; they rarely ever cure the problem!!
Thank for ur video I will try it
I was on omeprazole but had a great doctor who suggested a blood test to find out what foods I may be allergic to that may be causing the heartburn. I cut out the foods I was allergic to and slowly come off the medication and have never had an issue, unless I eat things that dont agree with me. I thank that doctor every day for not just writing a prescription and sending me on my way. Also congratulations and I hope this is a lifetime change.
Denisa Brooks I have just found a holistic doctor who looks into everything. Turns out I have food allergies and sensitivities I knew nothing about!
was dairy one of the foods You stopped? When I stopped dairy, mine stopped BAM!
@@PinkLady54 Yes it was. Any products made from cows dairy since I am allergic to casein.
@@michelehafthudson2438 I'm glad more people are becoming aware of food allergies and how that affects more than just your GI.
@@denisabrooks6456 TY so much for Your quick reply & sharing this information with others. Our bodies have been battered & poisoned for so long, it's a wonder we are able to marginally function. Hoping more can realize we don't need drugs - we need to STOP eating poisons. TY Grrrl!! Wise woman!!
Steven: Thank you a million times for posting and sharing this video. I took the ACV straight shot without adding other condiments, first one was great, second one 12 hrs later in the morning gave me a bit of upset stomach but absolutely no reflux. I will be more conservative on the next one with adding water and other condiments. Thanks again.
Thank you for sharing your experience. I’m so glad you’ve found relief. 👍🏻
I discovered I had silent acid reflux (LPR) a few weeks ago and after doing some research I found out that ACV is good for ppl with low stomach acid and so I tried this product to see if that’s the case with me and it worked. It’s been about a week and a half. I drink it every time I feel any acid coming up my throat and it gave me relief.
Drink it through a straw ppl.
Another tip to help with LPR is to gargle with water and baking soda. This will help get the pepsin out of your throat and relieve some of the symptoms that affects your ears and nose. Finally, use honey to help your esophagus heal. I’m so happy to have found a solution so quick because many ppl suffer for years with this. But don’t give up ppl be consistent and have faith that it will work.
Thank you for this!
Thankyou god bles you dear, a have Lpr because gerd
Well "hi" again, 😊 I tried the Apple cider vinegar, I just sprinkle it on my food and WOW what a difference, it cured my acid reflux instantly. Unbelievable. I refused medication as I won't take poison. I had terrible acid reflux and it was getting so bad I couldn't eat anything at all. Apple cider vinegar really works. 👍
When you threw the pills in the trash I immediately thought,, ". Savage" I'll do this exact same thing once I stop at whole foods. Thankyou for being a godsend, you've been through so much, so much pain and prolonged suffering but in turn you ended up helping the world. You deserve to be angry, but know that pain will change the lives of so many in the world, hopefully me included, may you be blessed with light onward in your journey
3 years later and I found acv tablets. Going to try these and see the effects. Your story is so beneficial.
Hey, did you try the ACV tablets ? I’m lazy to make the tonic 😆 and want to try the tablet version
Really loved the reaction and the face of admission after reading the side effects of pantoprazole
I understand that anger I was given a bipolar diagnosis and was on an antidepressant and lithium for just a hair short of 10 years, premature organ aging was one of the side effects of the Wellbutrin I was on. I had been to several Drs. That just kept prescribing meds, it turns out I have CPTSD not bipolar. No one bothered to ask me at the time of diagnosis about my childhood or my marriage at the time with an alcoholic. I have been free of taking daily meds since 2012.
Thank you for this video. I started having mild heartburn with frequent burping for 2 weeks. I was semi freaking out because being careful with waiting to drink before and after a meal wasn’t working. I’m going to be making your recipe today to start healing my gut 👍🏻
Sending you an understanding hug. Heal yourself by telling yourself every day that you are a good and special person. Good luck I hope you are ok?xxx
I healed myself more through self-discovery and reading than any doctor has ever helped me.
How did u did that
How did you treat yourself?
Same to me.
@@mohammadshafiullah9393 kaise sahi hua bhai
I know. I know enough about my health problems that I won't even bother with the quacks!!!!!!🙄🙄
I understand your anger. I feel the same way. I have been to numerous Doctors with no answers for 45 years!! All they do is prescribe. I have asthma which is 100% caused by GERD. I am going to try your tonic and follow keto diet and somehow I know my asthma will improve dramatically. Thanks for the recipe. I just found out about acv.
O really wht u had shortness of breath, I face this prblm, wht apple vinegar help me
Yup. It’s been a month to straight tablespoons in water a day. I have to say my reflux is 90% gone. And I’m optimistic. Plus, incredibly, my nighttime and early morning leg cramps are 100% gone. I don’t know why, but I’m sure glad. Thanks Steve 😊👏👍🙏
Fantastic. Thanks for sharing your experience. 👍🏻
This is great! Have recently found out ACV adds acid to help absorb iron for all those ladies having low iron issues. ACV will sort you out!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I’m on day 7 with this tonic without omeprazole and I haven’t felt this good in months. I ate a whole box of pizza with no reflux. God bless you.
Fantastic
@Sousen M i have LPR for a week and i have no idea about LPR until my throat felt like someone is choking me or cutting it with a knife whenever i eat food especially every night, the pain is worse.. The pain lasts for about 1hr. Then i tried the ACV approach and after 5days my symptom improved. The throat pain is almost gone as of writing this. But today i did not take ACV as I am drinking apple juice instead. Last night I dont have throat pain before sleeping. So i can say that natural treatment works for me as long as i will stay away from triggers. Knoww your triggers. I write a journal daily of everything that i eat and drink. And i can say that what triggers me most is the tomato sauce/spag sauce. Also oily food and fried foods can trigger me. As well as fried egg with yolk. But boiled egg white is just fine.
@Sousen M i want to give u an update about my LPR symptoms. I did the ACV treatment for 3-5days. Then followed it with strict low-aicd diet, i strictly avoided all the food that triggers the reflux including eggs, white breads and fried foods. I started doing it August 2 and as of today, writing this, my symptom was gone! I also boosted my vitamin supplements that i have researched from forums and fb groups.. i couldnt believe it worked for me.. now i will continue my routine for 2-3months to avoid relapse.. 😊
What?!
You can eat a whole of pizza without having reflux acid?
I used to able eat a whole of pizza but now I can't even finish 1 slice of pizza.
I had GERD since August 2021.
I had endoscopy since November 2021.
I am able to swallow easily thanks to someone who used to have tracheostomy and g-tube was learned to breathe and swallow with breathing and swallowing exercises. (She doesn't have tracheostomy and g-tube anymore and hers was removed since she was mid teenage age.)
I have same medicine.
That would give me hope.
I am still researching about GERD.
I’m going to start your tonic. I’ve had gerd/acid reflux gastritis for years. I don’t know if anyone has experience this, but sometimes at night time while sleep, acid travels all the way throat, waking up in panic gasping for air not being able to breath until I stand up and acid return back down. That is the worst feeling. Not being able to breath. Good luck and blessings to all of you suffering with this issue. And thank you for putting up this tonic.
I had that once. Absolutely terrifying. I hope this works for you. I'd encourage you to watch the one year follow-up video, where I answer a lot of questions you might have.
How are u now
I too got hung up on prescriptions.. more like 3 yrs. But then started learning other options. Can't swallow the ACV because it burns too, but found DGL tabs, ACV tabs, so helpful, no more meds, but I've mixed up your tonic for the cure. Now it's nutrition, keto, and now learning about "earthing". Thank you for all you do.
