I hope I'll get better one day. Im a musician and I quit singing because of my vocal cords. Every now and then, when I sing, my kids dance. I wish it wasn't so expensive to focus on my health.
All u need to do is stop taking anti acids and drink real fruit juices to replinish your natural acids it will cure u u dont need supplements or diets just dont eat foods or drinks with corn syrup and dont eat fried foods and dont mix anti acids with the juice it makes it worse i had acid feflux baad for 7 years i stoped anti acids and had the problem for another 4 years cause anti acids destroy ligaments and one day i started drinking orange juce then i was belching cause i was actualy divesting ny food properly so i drank 1 gallon of real orange juice a week fir a year i have been cured for 10 years and i can eat and drink anything i want with out any acid reflux
I was so depressed when I started my treatment for acid reflux cause my dr was don't eat fatty food, eat less soup, don't eat spicy food, and I was like there is nothing to eat and I got super sad, but then I found your videos and found out I have so little information about food and there is actually so much to eat! Thank you for giving me hope and strength to continue my treatment and get better hopefully my acid reflux will be totally cured like yours 😊
watch paul saladino how to fix your gut, fix the root CAUSE, mine fixed in 30 days with meat and fruit , if ur serious about fixing your problem watch it
@@ibikunlejumoke3003slippery elm bark and marshmallow root! Boil them with water and strain it then let them cool in the fridge then you can add a bit of cinnamon for taste. Then drink throughout the day. Stay away from meds
You have helped me so much...I choked on garlic, it stayed in my passageway for about 6 weeks! It caused major issues & now I'm suffering from reflux. I have been improving since I watched your videos, thank u it's so scary!
Great advice! I really believe that stress and anxiety are the root cause of my GERD problems. Yet I still don't understand some things. First of all, one can't eliminate stress completely. Once we are so sensitive to it how do we break the cycle? My stress, anxiety or mood changes often don't have a specific stressor. I'm quite behind in life, I've acquired dysfunctional habits, I tend to procrastinate a lot, I have a rough past, so nervous tension builds up in my body, I think. I meditate every day (a little less than I used to, it's true) but I'm still in a flare-up cycle despite 40mg of Esomeprazole. Also, I'm doing a PhD in something I love but feel like an impostor due to mental health. The problem is not the studying per se, is dealing with procrastination, with the anxiety about not being productive due to symptoms, dealing the the awareness that I'm not doing enough and that I'm very behind. So in order to heal my nervous system I have to improve in life and do things that scare me, etc., but in order to do them I need to be stressed and hence perhaps bear the GERD symptoms. I feel isolation and loneliness is a big factor; it's something I have to address too. Also, how long should we be consistent? Because this is an incurable chronic disease - I have an incompetent LES. I know that when one reaches remissions one can eat or drink more aggressive foods in moderation, or take a PPI on demand (i.e., before indulging in some excesses). But how long it takes? Another big problem I have is with portions. I eat a healthy diet but I'm very skinny, almost underweight. If I don't run, I get more anxious and accumulate more nervous tention. So I can't afford low portions, nor eat 6 meals a day, and that really bothers me...
Work with a therapist on this stuff, they can help you to organize, set goals, manage your stress (if you're not meditating enough that's on you and you can change that). Please don't expect Molly to solve your problems for you. She's a registered dietician, not a therapist.
Why don’t you use Betain HCL, it made my acid reflux much better. Other “Doctors” on UA-cam says it’s it is actually less acid in your stomach. Yes stress causes it though.
I definitely struggle with number 4 of lacking consistency I get symptom free & nearly convince myself that it's gone then I consume whatever & the cycle starts all over again 🙄 especially during the Christmas with food looking extra appealing 😅, I need consistency big time... Thanks for your much needed video, just in time when the cycle of symptoms start again...
Can you do a video of GERD symptoms. I have been having chest pains for weeks and went to the doctor. They told me I have GERD. Chest pain is my only symptom and certain foods trigger it.
Thank you Molly for your great information about acid reflux never get from Gi doctors. I suffer this more than 30 years and take poi until now.I cut down taking poi my self.Long time took asthma medication too.And long time sinus infection until .now.I am 72 years now
Hi Molly, can you please make a video about the link between reflux and skin conditions like eczema? I’m wondering if these issues are connected since they all started presenting at the same time.
Hi, been watching loads of your videos, ive have exactly your symptoms, started slow with throat clearing now terrible acid pain. Ive ordered the slippery elm youve suggested. How should i take it?? I start work 6 am and drink alot of water before. My first food intake is 10 am. Would be grateful for your advice. Thanks Steve
I've tried to come off Lansoprazole, but I can't!! It's all very well trying certain foods and supplements, but you have to go through a lot of pain and acid drawbacks first! I'm not prepared to do that! Life is for living! I don't want to risk aspirational pneumonia from drawbacks either. I live in the UK.
It's no use to consult with a doctor, because all the doctor which I hav consulted do not have any idea and always say it's because of High acid production n always recommend ppi...I think the only good part to consult a doctor is to get oneself tested to know one's condition..
I get burps after every meal …..even after drinking water nd have some symptoms of ibs Could you pls pls suggest something……i m miserable…..the doctors just gave me ppis
Natural remedies such as red apple delicious and Fuji apple fruits are proven very effective in treating acid reflux. My wife and I tried them and we were amazed it only took a few days eating those apples and acid reflux was completely gone and never came back.
That sounds like a bacterial overgrowth like h pylori, or something else similar. Going through the same thing now. H pylori can cause gastritis which causes GERD and silent reflux. Hope you're feeling better. I'm not a medical professional, I'm just doing my own research for myself.
I hope you already took care of your acid reflux. . My wife and I took only a few days to get rid of that problem. All we did was ate red apple delicious and Fuji apple fruits for a few days. We were so amazed acid reflux was completely gone and never came back.
@@MollyPelletierRD I have not. I went down all avenues accept the SIBO and PH tests. I visited 3 hospitals and great specialists all over NYC. I am waiting on my SIBO appointment. Unfortunately they make you wait. As for the PH test. I already know I have reflux. The Ph test is not very accurate as I have read anyway. You mentioned another avenue I shall seek for. A GERD Dietician. I am 3 steps away from truly giving up. This is no way to live.

I've been suffering with GERD for 18yrs. Seen hundreds of doctors, did all the scopes, medicines, diets, lifestyle changes, nothing has worked. I don't think there is any hope for me either. I have officially given up!
@@narifaalicia I've done extensive research on this condition. I'm going to give you the harsh reality.Most people have damage that can be reversed. Whether it is the LES (Lower Esophageal Sphincter) or some other issue.

Not even surgery can help. Through deep research, many talks with different doctors and using logic, our condition is most likely irreversible. I am so sorry. 18 years. Wow. You are strong!

Since, you are new to this nonsense of medication you may want to try apple cider vinegar some people are able to get rid of it by using that but don’t take the cider if you are taking Omeprazole or any PPI. My husband got rid of it with ACV.
It's so hard weaning off ppi. O thought I had it beat and in the final 2 weeks of weaning off then I started getting inflammation and difficulties swallowing. But up until then I was doing great with no bloating or stomach discomfort
Are you able to advise on how to come off of PPI's? I've been on Omeprazole for over 10 years and even when tapering off of them I get the increased acid reflux withdrawal symptoms. I also take meds that cause the reflux, so even if I do all that you’ve advised, will I still get reflux?
Reflex gourmet does not exist in Europe..anything similar with alignate? i ordered ths Gaia Herbs, Reflux Relief, 14 Chewable Tablets but i do not know if it actually works
Homeopathic remedy Ignatia 1m dose once a month released the grief causing my LPR reflux so if you got reflux since a traumatic emotional event, please see a qualified homeopath

I cannot overstate how much reducing alcohol intake to almost zero helped me. I don’t rely on medication at all and I couldn’t be happier!
Aloe Vera gel, coconut water, fresh papaya, banana, pear, ginger, cabbage juicing, celery juice first thing in the morning has helped me + suplements.
Do you chew the ginger??
What type of supplements do you use
