Today, I’m going to share how to get rid of acid reflux naturally.
Acid reflux is a situation where you have acid being regurgitated into the esophagus. The top cause of acid reflux is a deficiency of acid in the stomach.
The common treatments for acid reflux or heartburn may help someone feel better temporarily, but they aren't good long-term solutions. They also come with side effects.
It’s crucial that the stomach has the right pH. The normal pH of the stomach should be between one and three, which is very acidic. We need high acidity in the stomach to help break down proteins, absorb vitamins and minerals, and kill pathogens.
The hydrochloric acid in your stomach helps with the release of bile from the gallbladder. It also helps stimulate the pancreas, which supports digestion.
You need certain nutrients to make a sufficient amount of hydrochloric acid, including zinc, chlorides, and potassium. It’s also important to keep in mind that having too much calcium can cause GERD.
How to stop acid reflux naturally:
1. Take betaine hydrochloride
2. Get plenty of potassium and sea salt
3. Get plenty of zinc
4. Chew your food longer
5. Lower your stress

Hi Dr Berg. Did you mean that once I have no more reflux after taken enough Betaine HCI capsules, I can stop taking it?
Thank you! Typically for silent acid reflux how much time does it take for Betaine HCL to work? And how will I know when to stop? I took 2 capsules of 600 mg each, but still got reflux at night.

I thought I would take PPIs for the rest of my life and dead of oesophagien cancer. I prayed for healing but never imagined all syptoms of 12 years are gone immédiately by taking ACV, even the chronic pain on my right side of body disappear at same time. All the pain was ralated to the déficiency of gastric acid! It was a 12 year nightmare, I was starving because I could not eat lots of food. I had difficulty in swallowing and I cough a lot after eating. I woke up every morning with painful throat and my voice became terrible. I could not explain to others, I was depressed and I could not even work and have a 2nd kid. I wish I would found this channel earlier. Now I am healed and I just want to cry. Thank you Dr. Berg you are a real super hero who save people's life. It's incredible that the whole medical système treat people in wrong way! There are so many doctors in this world but they don't curious about the true reason! I did meditations for 2 months to attract a magical healing and I found this channel. This is really a magic!
I'm fairly new to Dr. Berg. What is ACV?

@@shellym.4335Apple Cider Vinegar. But what I want to know is this this man take Betaine HCL or just Apple Cider Vinegar?
I agree 100%. I started supplementing with betain HCl. It worked wonders on not just my acid reflux but also inflammation in my skin and face. I recently had an endoscopy on my esophagus and they found a small hiatal hernia. GI doctor recommended antacids and had no comment on me supplementing with the betain HCl. Three other doctors had no idea what it was. It’s pretty crazy how ignorant our medical community is.
Ordering now.
I agree 100% on our medical community being ignorant. All the people they could really be helping and they aren’t:-(
How strong are your hcl pills and do you take them before you eat or whilst eating?
Did the doctor's do anything for your hiatal hernia? I have a small one too and I am wondering if that is a cause as well for our GERD.
@@Overlandwanderers I have the same question!
Eating smaller meals, intermittent fasting, nothing late at night... was the only thing that really worked for me. Had it so bad I was coughing all the time. I watch all your videos 👍
That's a winning formula for just about everyone.
Extremely sensible approach. Of course, make sure you're eating a balanced meal.
I'm coughing all the time now and my chest burns really bad how are you getting on now
@@toddbarker7804 I cough once in awhile. I find taking cough candies helps with it and relieves the sore throat. I am doing much better but will have to continue to watch it. Try not to cough if you can. It will let you heal better. Good Luck.
Me too
Thank you Dr Berg. Your videos are very informative and helpful. Plus, you take time explaining things without rushing through and using a lot of medical “ jargon”.
This is just the best video on the internet which explains all the procedures so efficiently.
Another way to stop acid reflux if you can do this…
I started with acid reflux in my 30’s. I thought it was because I was becoming unfit, therefore I started to jog 3 miles every other day. After my 2nd jog the reflux stopped, I did a few more jogs afterwards. So I stopped running and about 2 months after my reflux started again, so I started jogging again and my reflux would stop again. I still jog a little and go to the gym and I’ve only had attacks after good night drinking sessions etc, I'm 50 now and have been fine up to now.
I am 69 yrs old and have suffered with IBS w constipation, Hiatal hernia, Barrett’s Esophagus & acid reflux disease, since my 20’s. Do you have any videos about Hiatal hernias & Barrett’s? I also of course suffer from constant gas & bloating. Anyway, nothing modern medicine has offered has done anything but make it all worse. After watching this I finally have HOPE! Thank you so much!
Hi Dr Berg, I'm an avid fan. No-one explaines how stuff works like you. Clear & simple. I've just learned how to manage my acid reflux. It plagues me! Thank you, for all the learning I've achieved about my body over the years. I don't write in the comments, however u are the exception u deserve full credit for pulling together all the research and presenting it so clearly then giving solutions to so many health issues. A BIG THANK YOU from my ❤️
Mags, Dublin Ireland.
See my comment for the real cure
I have stopped taking proton pump inhibitors and notice a major improvement by following your suggestions. I follow your videos constantly.Thank you for every thing you do to help human kind
I no longer take my prescribed PPI. I do take betaine HCL. This video will help me to refine the dosage, along with the required minerals. Thanks, Dr. Berg.
PPIs are dangerous... there are several law suits.
8:12 Dr. Berg's Recommendation to Stop Acid Reflux: The best remedy is to take something to build up your hydrochloric acid and that's called Betaine Hydrochloride. You start by taking three right before your meal and see how you feel, if it's better but you still have problem, next time you take four, next time you take fine and you keep increasing it until your symptoms go away. It could take seven or eight or more of these Betaine Hydrochloride tablets before you have no more acid reflux.
9:01 Dr. Berg's next recommendation: Let's say you're up to eight Betaine Hydrochloride and your acid reflux goes away and you feel great, I would continue to take a little bit more until you start getting heartburn or a warmness in your stomach which you're taking too much, so then you can back off. That way you can know exactly how much you really need to fix this problem.
9:31 Make sure you're getting enough potassium and sea salt in your diet because those are the precursors to building hydrochloric acid.
9:42 Make sure you're getting sufficient zinc.
9:49 Chew your food longer.
10:04 Make sure you keep your stress down because stress can aggravate the situation.
Thank you Dr. Berg.

I tried ACV yesterday and it made my symptoms much much worse. So going to follow the advice on this video of intermittent fasting to my healthy keto diet and also adding cabbage or sauerkraut to my meals.
Interesting video, I’ve been on Lansoprazole for 15 years and while it stopped GERD I have terrible digestive issues. I’m going to give this a try 👍
In 2016 suffered from chronic acid reflux for almost two years to a point where I can't sleep horizontally anymore at night. I knew I needed to make a drastic change with my diet. I found this article about ketogenic diet and tried it. My acid reflux was gone almost immediately.
That's fantastic! Thank you for sharing!

@@shahidsd3097I just did the ketogenic diet which is alow carb, high fat diet
That explains, I have GERD, I was prescribed Omeprazole for 2 months, it made worse.
I began drinking apple cider vinegar diluted with water twice a day, changed my diet, my symptoms have been improving. Thank you Dr. Berg
incorrect diagnosis with accompanying inappropriate therapy has persisted for decades ... omeprazole, among others, many billions for the drug companies while creating massive gastrointestinal distress for countless patients ... Dr Berg, Thankyou !!!
Did u do it before u eat or after u eat

I do 12 oz of cold water,
I cut one medium size lemon🍋
Squeeze the lemon into the water.
Then, I add two tbsp of apple cider vinegar.
Drink this 30 minutes before your meals.
use a straw , it won't affect your tooth enamel.
My GERD is linked to high levels of stress. I'm a single Dad of two autistic kids. So I'm always dealing with their meltdowns, screaming, aggressive behavior, etc. It's fucking hell.
My Dr ordered an endoscopy, barium x ray test, and esophageal manometry test, they thought I might had a hiatal hernia,
Fortunately, I do NOT have a hiatal hernia.
My gastroenterologist did noticed my stomach contractions a bit more tense compared to a normal relaxed stomach.
I had gastritis, but thanks to Dr. Berg, I don't have gastritis anymore.
I followed his cabbage juice along with zinc carnosine and L Glutamine every morning.
I also do intermittent fasting during weekdays, minus weekends.
I'm currently taking vitamin D3 30,000 IU because my bloodwork did show 20/100 vitamin D level. Which was insufficient.
My plan is to increase my stomach acid and make its PH more acidic. Hopefully it helps
PPIs have been shown to cause Stomach and Esphogeal cancer. Don't use them.

Dr Berg. I have had acid reflux so bad, have had a scope and no damage. I watched your video and have your advanced digestive formula (plus more of your supplements) and took up to 8 before meals for a few weeks and backed down to 3 now and it has done wonders for my reflux. I hardly have any problems anymore. I am so pleased and thank you for your helpful, informative videos.
That's really amazing. Glad it helped you. Thank you for your feedback.
Thanks Dr. Berg!
The following has helped me:
-mix one tablespoon of corn flour in room a 4-6oz temperature water. No bloating or acid reflux or heart burn especially at night!
Also I drink a tablespoon of of apple cider in 6-8 oz room temperature water before bed.
So far, no more sore throat, coughing and bloating!!!
Try these…good luck!
I use the Maizena corn flour sold at Walmart and Spanish grocery stores you may try other corn 🌽 flour products.
All natural solutions have made my reflux acid and coughing manageable.
Good luck!!!
May Allah bless you with all his mercy and love. You are a source of help and health for millions of suffering people.
Very seldom do I comment on UA-cam videos but I felt compelled to do so in this case. I’ve been taking omeprazole for 10 years+. After reading about it’s potential links to gastric cancers I decided to look at ways to get off. This method has worked 100% for me after just one week. Thank you so much for this sterling advice and once again highlighting just how flawed modern medicine is. Classic example of treating the symptom not the cause.
Did you go off a ppi and switch right to this or were you not on a proton pump inhibitor?
I’ve been suffering from Acid Reflux off and on for 10 years! Been on PPI’s and Antacids for that long as well… I have no idea where my body is at, as far as side effects goes… but I can solidly say, something isn’t right. Definitely going to try this method, for a remedy. I don’t want to take another antacid ever again!
What a fantastic , concise, informative video with very clear and easy steps to incorporate. Thank you!!!
This doctor is just a blessing 🥺🥺 everytime I watch his videos I thank heavens
Thank you very much for your kind words. Appreciate it!
When I started eating more meat and no carbs, acid reflux all but left. I now eat more natural sea salt on my food and use electrolytes as well. One thing I realized this week was that eating whole meats makes me chew my meals, unlike the carbs I was eating, as those don't require so much chewing. I'm certain this was a key component to producing more digestive enzymes.
Very interesting. I've had TMJD (Temporal Mandibular Joint Dysfunction) for many years so I've developed anxiety and depression due to long term chronic pain. Stress, constipation and horrendous acid reflux are constant problems also. My TMJ treatment so far still has my chewing teeth covered in a composite resin to help my jaw function and occlude correctly. So I have no cusps on my chewing teeth and that makes it harder to grind my food up properly. I've been poppin antacid tablets like Tic Tacs day and night for some time now. It's a coincidence I found this video because I've been thinking lately that maybe a big aggravating part of my health problems is due to a lack of strong digestive acid. So thank you Doctor for illuminating the path.😄👍
Just been to the hospital & diagnosed with Acid Reflex . Given Omeprazole 20mg & Gaviscon. Was advised not to eat spicy food 🍲 which I enjoy & not to eat after 6 or 8pm . I thought it was this as I love the good Doctor Berg & educate myself health wise listening & learning from Dr. Berg video . Simple & Conise & not too long . Appreciate. So many Doctors have hear of Dr. Berg because I always mention the name if I have to go to hospital appointments .
Acid reflux can be treated by eating red apples. Eat red apples for a few days and you will have positive results. It works.
For years, I was led to believe that my Acid Reflux was caused by eating; a)too much acidic foods; b)basically eating too much; c)drinking soda or alcohol; d)spicy foods. This video has me rethinking a lot of that. I have a Previcid prescription that I take on occasion, especially when I am traveling (thus eating out). When I limit my food intake, especially in the evening, I do not get heartburn during the night. Lately, I have been sleeping with my head and shoulders elevated by two pillows, so as to minimize the discomfort. Your video and some testimonies stated here have given me ideas that I will definitely incorporate into my diet.
Have you tried a product called Gaviscon? It’s the best over the counter acid blocker. You take it when you need it, not everyday. It works great
Very very well explained
Glad you found it informative
I just wanted to take a moment to thank you sharing this information with us. It is deeply appreciated. Especially love the fact that you went straight to the point and made it easy to understand. Best believe you are blessing. Once again, thank you!
Very glad to be of help.
I had nausea for two years, after being prescribed Boniva for osteoporosis.A gastroenterologist did an endoscopy and told me I had a highly acidic stomach. He also said that I had a hiatel hernia, but he said lots of people have that with no problems. Over a year’s time he put me on five different anti-nausea medicines. I had no idea there were that many. Anyway, most of those meds helped me for a month or two and then I would get the nausea back. My niece had suggested Braggs apple cider vinegar but I didn’t think a natural solution would work for me. After two years of on again, off again relief, I tried the apple vinegar. I had immediate relief! I continued to take it for the next two weeks, and over time I forgot about it because I wasn’t having nausea anymore. I know that it is good for health anyway, but I hate the taste and I haven’t taken it for 2 years now. The nausea has not returned!
Dr Berg, I watched your similar video on this topic. My daughter had a terrible acid reflux as a baby. I was too scared to give her anything acidic and as I breastfeed, I even myself avoided acidic foods. To my surprise, first foods she went for at 6 months was lemons and fermented cabbage. And that was an end of her acid reflux. She’s 6 now and she loves ACV in her salad, still eats lemons and it’s interesting that she’s saying how lemons are fun and make her tummy happy
Worst thing was that doctors were prescribing her that terrible Lozac and renitidine that made things much worse
isnt that crazy? Just toss pills at you. I had high blood pressure, solution, PILLS! Real cause, low potassium. LOL They arent solving the core problem, just putting duct tape on holes in a submarine

7 months pregnant bad acid reflux 😫 I take CALM but it’s not helping much. Just when I needed this video, thx Dr berg.
I'm having the same prob, especially after eating gluten or processed food with fructose syrup in. Have you tried eliminated anything?
First of all, thank you Dr. Berg for all of your honesty and candor. Second, I had my gall bladder removed at age 31 and am now 71. Can I still take betaine hydrochloride safely? I have very severe silent night time reflux to the extent that my new ENT discovered that my throat, voice box, and tonsils were being fried for years. Thus, a ton of tonsil infections every year with antibiotics. The pain had become terrible just to talk. My PCP and I were afraid I had throat cancer, so I saw the ENT to rule that out, since he is also a board certified cancer cosmetic/reconstructive surgeon. He put me on an anti reflux diet after scoping me in detail and the PPI omeprozole 40 mg. He directed me to sleep elevated by about 6 inches. This has all helped greatly, but my dermatologist, who had decades of practice experience and is more holistic in his approach, is really concerned for me to be on PPIs for the rest of my life. Can I take the betaine HCL? Please and thank you. I have very strong bones now, but do not want that to change.
Thanks for your story, I had the same concerns with my throat,if I chat to long,My throat hurts.
But if you have a sliding hiatus hernia..isn’t that the cause of acid reflux
i am in the same boat , my problem also is a im a poor metabolizer all medication on me become toxic because my liver is slow to process medication ,my galbladder
was remove at the 24 years old , now i am 62 my main symptoms if the phlegm in the throat and cough ,back in 2016 regular dosis of ppi send me in the hospital with ideopatic gastroparesis ,was the most scary thing ever happen to me
Yes u can it's a natural remedy and have no side effect

Wonderful!
No acid reflux for the first time in years. My husband sent me this video to get the list of supplements I needed to stop acid reflux naturally. I realized I had all of these, except for Betaine HCL, in my pantry. Zinc, Potassium, and included Probiotic. I took 1 dose for each supplement and had my morning coffee and no acid reflux. This is day 4 with no issues. I have started taking Dr. Berg’s Betaine HCL formula along with the other supplements listed in the video. I feel great and am very happy with the results. Thank you Dr. Berg. Keep up the Good Work.
I'm surprised there was no mention of caffeine intake in your video. I was diagnosed with GERD and was prescribed acid reflux medicine which helped but after a while it seemed to no longer be effective. Another medical issue led my doctor to believe I should cut back on caffeine and I switched over to using decaf tea bags in my iced tea. I very rarely have heartburn since that switch and it was an extremely welcome and unexpected result of correcting another issue.
I’m always looking forward to your uploads Dr, thank you Dr
Most welcome! Glad you enjoy the videos!
Great video! I start meals with a few minutes of slowed breathing/extended exhale, feeling gratitude, and progressive muscle relaxation in stomach area to get into the parasympathetic nervous system. Then eat mindfully and slowly chewing each bite till the food is fully dissolve before swallowing. This increases saliva production and really helps! The Beltane HCl or a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar in water before the meal too, especially when it’s the middle of the day and I’m eating my bigger meal.
Thank you. This seems intuitively very beneficial. I am going to start this
Really bad cough for over a week led me to gerd and constant hiccups. I'm going to try these recommendations
I watched this 3 months ago after suffering with heartburn for 5 years. AND THEN I WAITED 3 MONTHS TO ACTUALLY TRY IT because I didn't think it could be that easy.
I took betain hydrochoride for about 4-5 days, and it was rough in the beginning not taking my usual famotidine. But here I am, sleeping so much better and reclining on the couch with ZERO heartburn. No famotidine. No betain hydrochloride. I'm so relieved I could cry.

What strength of Betaline Hydrochloride have you used? Because there is range from 100mg to 1200mg... 🤔
@@sn3495 I used 650mg tablets, about 3-4 of them per meal for the first couple of days and then less the few days after that. Now I'm at zero and have zero heartburn.

@@filo8582I have silent reflux. It was like an awful head cold . Yes change your diet because you need to make it easy on the restoration of acid ph. Eat alkaline foods take Betaine with protein meals .

I just appreciate all the time and effort you put into this channel. Your videos are always super relevant. Thank you Dr Berg. It's that familiar burning or painful sensation in the chest that pretty much everyone has experienced often enough to immediately declare it a case of heartburn. I used to have gastric reflux. Simple dietary and lifestyle changes can go a long way toward alleviating and preventing heartburn and acid reflux.

Just bought HCL so I’m praying it works
Wow, the perfect content i need.
I am suffering for anxiety and had a few anxiety atk like 3 to 4 times a week during the past few months. Currently i am suffering from bad acid reflux.
Often i cough all night, last night i visited the emergency due to my cough because i dont know what’s wrong with me which lead me to another anxiety atk. It is super hard to find the right doctor here in countryside of France.
The doctor prescribe me Pantoparazol, however This afternoon i watch your video and i ran to the pharmacy and i bought Betaine with calcium. Its 9pm now, fell so much better compare to yesterday.
Thx for another informative & helpful video. Double thumbs up 👍🏻👍🏻
Do not take calcium listen to his vid again. It's too much calcium!! Causing it
Excellent video. I’ve been using HCL for about 7 years and my GERD and acid indigestion was healed immediately and I’ve been fine for the last 7 years.. not a tum in 7 years while previously was tums probably every other day.. pretty amazing!
So you have taken it everyday for 7 years? I'm just trying to figure out if that's what I need to do. Was hoping in time the problem would correct itself
@@paulsechrengost6814 well Paul I should clarify that I’ve used it over 7 years but I will go in spirts where I used it consistently for a few weeks and then I maybe skip a few weeks because I seem to be fine. One other weird thing it does is help me with heart skips. It makes my heart beat more regularly and info see that I start skipping I start taking it regularly again. I know that sounds weird but it does affect that way as well.
I was diagnosed with GERD and given Pepcid to take. The Pepcid made it worse so I stopped taking it. I ended up watching what I eat, how much and when I eat. Thank you for the info.
Based on experience, you try eating red apples for a few days and you will have positive results. It works. You don't even have to worry on what to eat and drink. Red apples are effective against reflux.
Amazing advice. I just ordered the Betaine Hydrochloride, and started Potassium and Zinc as my acid reflux dramatically increased lately. Nowadays it is vital to look beyond allopathic medicine, and into more natural remedies. Nothing does it better than nature. Thank you
Same with us.

Your acid reflux dramatically INCREASED? Do you mean it dramatically DECREASED?

Factors that can aggravate acid reflux include:
Smoking.
Eating large meals or eating late at night.
Eating certain foods (triggers) such as fatty or fried foods.
Drinking certain beverages, such as alcohol or coffee.
Taking certain medications, such as aspirin.
R u a doctor? I need to ask about something.

not entirely true, I suffered chronic acid reflux for 30 years.. went keto and all perfect... I can eat large fried foods late with no issue, I used to believe it was fried spicy food.... it's actually gluten that causes it!
This is exactly what we are taught in pharmacy school, and treatment consists of PPI, H2 antagonists and antacids (most efficacious products containing sodium alginate). The content in this video does not correspond with the treatment and causes we were taught. Although, he is a dr so I take his word for it...
@@MeMe-dw1sm Well I've had to cut out gluten and been off it for 3 weeks now and I've had reflux almost every day or at least the burning and pain in the gut so there is more to it than gluten and that may work for some people if that was the trigger but it won't work for all...I'm proof! They aren't giving the cure They are saying these are things that can trigger it aka make it worse!
That's what happened to me, Dr. Berg. The MDs put me on proton pump inhibitors for years. Thanks to docs like you, I learned about how the body works & what is actually causing acid reflux. I now take your digestive enzymes & healthy supps for my body. Thanks for teaching us!
And are you feeling better now? I just got put on proton inhibitors myself and I feel like maybe it’s just a fob off because they ding really know what caused my upper abdomen pain so if feels like guess work. Now I’m getting burps and diahrea that I wasn’t getting before.
Bggf
@@Goldgirl1978 I have been prescribed the same. But eating lean boiled chicken and vegetables has helped me a lot. I'm now taking myself off those PPIs.
So are u feeling? Wat are u taking? I too got issue due to this weightloss, SIBO, candida etc...
@@kardistakardi614 sorry, I just saw your question. I take Dr. Berg's Gallbladder Formula & Advanced Digestive Formula. I hardly ever get acid reflux anymore. I ended up in the ER on a Saturday afternoon and had the emergency removal of my gallbladder. It was "full of pea-sized stones". I was a "fat , female in my 40's at the time. High risk group for gall stones. (I didn't know that at the time.) Follow Dr. Berg's videos for the best suggestions. I hope you feel better! 🌹🌹
Good information. A doctor told me acid reflux was caused from caffeine and eating large amounts at one time. I was drinking tea, cokes and coffee several times a day. After eating smaller meals and getting caffeine free drinks and coffee it fixed the problem. I also drink more water and less coffee and cokes.
I wanna thank you for explaining through how this happens and for the treatment this is the only thing worked after being in so much pain for the last 2 years went to top gastrointestinal specialists but a video from youtube helps me thank you very much doc.
14 years I was told by doctors "I'll forever have acid reflux" even had endoscopy told I had a hiatal hernia prescribed nexium, then that started giving me migraines then changed to dexilant.
Started feeling pain on joints everywhere, I stopped taking them 7 years ago.
Even with a corrected diet it took about a month to dial in but I've been fine since.
Thank you!
What did you use to stop the acid production especially if its related to hiatal hernia? kindly help
@@phibianamavuti3066 at first I used some mother's apple cider vinegar, that didn't work enough, some lemons with water wasn't enough (learning to add acid to diet) finally for desperate help had baking soda to neutralize the acid. That saved me. Only for a few days. Finally it leveled out.
I'd say 3 weeks.
I have diluted cold brew coffee im fine.
These "doctors" multiple ones were all lying to me.
Hiatial my +×÷ medical field corruption protected from up on high by the prince of darkness.

You can do it !
the most doctors don't want you to heal, they want to give you drugs so you keep being sick. sad truth.
What diet do you follow?
This video came in clutch!
Been dealing with a lot of heartburn lately... Thank you Dr Berg
You're very welcome!
same with me, I thought google was spying on me ;-) it came right on time. Thanks a lot!
Ginger is helping too. I used it daily in all forms . After one ore two weeks it never come back for years.

@@kanone65 b4 or After eating?
Going low on sugar and white wheat and white rice was the way that brought me out instantly.
Thank you for this video. This problem has been blighting my whole life for the past few months. I am going to start following your advice and hopefully the problem will go away - or, at least, be eased a bit.
No problem. Hope the information here will help you.
Glad to hear you mention SIBO.
I was diagnosed with Lupus....it was actually SIBO.
Fortunately! SIBO can be dealt with if you're persistent.
I used to get woken up at night with the stupid heartburn almost nightly, even on a fasted stomach. What I did, was jump off a step a bunch of times with a stomach full of water….. worked like a charm & haven’t had it since. I hope this free fix helps someone.
Well I'm the odd one cause an empty stomach many times makes me get acidity and feel I need to eat Hoping it will calm it down it seems it does at first but after a hour I go right back to it and sometimes belching up a little food. It's such a pain in the gut! I've wondered why I feel acidic or stomach hurts when I haven't ate ...Like you said first thing in the morning!
@@inconnu299 Imagine that was the real cure just jumping lol
I followed your advice about 2 years ago and I was healed in 4 days.. I had extreme GERD n my doctors couldn’t figure it out.. I always tell people about how u saved my life n I will forever be grateful.❤

Can you tell me whst you did, my sister have extreme GERD and anxiety.
@@Drberg Hello, I love your videos you have helped me so much BUT have quick question on this, I have a gastric sleeve (BIG MISTAKE) can I take these HCL supplements? Would it help someone like me me with much smaller stomach?. Again, THANK YOU so much for your content and advice. X
Again an everlasting thank you Dr, Berg for this another amazing information. 👏👏🙏🙏🙏
Very glad to be of help.
I have suffered with GERD and heartburn for years. I am a Type A blood type and we have low stomach acid. After watching a few of your videos, I started on HCL, 3 at first then have worked my way up to 6. If I am eating something I really shouldn't based on my blood type, I add an additional HCL. It has helped me tremendously. I also added the zinc and have always used sea salt. Thank you, Dr. Berg for all the health advice you provide!
How much do you take and before meal or after meal? Thanks!
@@shoumeiyan6221 I started on 2, I've found that taking 3 works just fine but if your heartburn comes on after eating or the morning after, try taking 2 or 3 without food, it's worked wonders for me, I mean happiness restored!

Dr. Berg, thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and for providing your audience with valuable insight regarding health. Much respect to you!
I took Pantoprazole for 5 or 6 years due to GERD. When my GP prescribed it to me, I asked about possible side effects, and all she mentioned was a lack of Vit B12 with long term use. Well about 3 years ago, I was rushed to emergency with severe stomach pain and had to go on sick leave for 15 weeks. It was then I stumbled on a video talking about the dangerous side effects of proton pump inhibitors and the amazing benefits of apple cider vinegar. I stopped taking the Pantoprazole immediately and took ACV in water 4 to 5 times per day along with cutting out carbs. It took me less than a month to totally get rid of my GERD.
I also went the same thing but less severe as you. My doctor prescribed me with Omeprazole because of refluxing acid for 1 week, however, it didn't end my acid reflux so I would continue taking omeprazole whenever I get acid reflux and it still didn't end my acid reflux and after a few months, I encountered dr. eric's channel and found out that I shouldn't take antacids when I kept getting acid reflux day in and day out but rather, I should increase the ph and amount of my acid so I took Apple cider vinegar like dr. eric said and after taking 2 tsp everyday, I finally ended my chronic acid reflux thanks to dr. eric and his informative videos.
Thank you, I will try this, the second dose of Proton Pump my shortness of breath and heart beating fast, I put them in garbage, I drank lots of herbal tea i felt a lot better, now I will try ACV, thanks.
There's another video where Dr. Berg says GERD is caused by a vitamin B1 and Zinc deficiency. Don't know why he doesn't talk about it in this video. Vitamin B1 needs to be taken in the form of non-fortified nutritional yeast. You could have gotten rid of GERD within a few hours going this route. But it's a good thing you decided to cut down on carbs/sugar bc you couldnt have stopped GERD without doing so bc that's what helped you build back up your zinc and B1. If you ever eat too many carbs and your symptoms reappear, just take non-fortified nutritional yeast and zinc complex, (or a few oysters instead), and it will be gone in a few hours up to maybe a day at most. ACV is also very important :)
I wouldnt say anything bad about pantoprazole. To lay people, especially those without health insurance in the US, pharma might be evil. But pantaprazole is SO effective when treating upper GI bleeds and stomach ulcers. It also gets rid of pylori bacteria. It's usually prescribed for temporary treatment. If youre taking a lot of medication already because youre unhealthy, youre also prescribed pantoprazole because your stomach might not be able to handle all those difficult medications at once. 90% of the people who go into hospitals for repeat issues are unwilling to change their diet or lifestyle so medication is really the only bandaid given. Personal issues about not improving diet and lifestyle are not doctor issues, theyre patient issues.
It amazes me how ignorant most md’s really are. I stopped going to a medical doctor when I was 16. I only see chiropractors that practice applied kinesiology and are natural paths.
That really helped me with my heartburn. I also found that improving my acidity helped me to digest fats better.
Great video . People need to know the reasons why this happens..... thx Dr berg
Yes, it blows my mind how my Gastro doc wants nothing to do with helping me to heal my digestive problems. He simply suggests famotidine for the rest of my life. When I try to engage him in conversation about the things you teach, Dr. Berg, he just looks at me like I'm stupid and switches right back to saying I have way too much acid in my stomach.
THANK YOU, Dr. Berg! I healed my acid reflux disease following your advice. I stopped taking my medication (Nexium) after 14 years. Then I started taking HCL Betaine pills, anywhere from 4-8 per meal. I did that regularly for several months until my body was able to start making its own acid w/o me taking the HCL Betaine. I also started doing IF and low carb meals. It has been exactly a year since I stopped taking Nexium and never looked back. So thank you so much for all your knowledge and for helping the world heal what doctor can't even figure out. Instead, they are simply putting us on different medications, causing other side effects that are so harmful to our bodies.
So happy to hear! Maybe you have tips for me - I was just put on Nexium two weeks ago, and I'm already on 60mg while my daily dose is 40, and I still have heartburn! So I don't think I have too much acid, as my doctor says. I went to her as I thought I had too little, but she said that was rarely occuring, without doing any more exams on me. Would you share what foods you eat while coming off Nexium please? Can you have coffee? I love coffee.. 😬 Do you do the celery juice? 🌼
Congrats! My stomach acid/reflux is out of sorts and I too hope to heal.
@@laisa. Coffee its not good !
Can I drink ACV with water to stop acid reflux?
I have acid reflux every day and if I drink ginger and mix with honey will help?
After taking Omeprazole for a full 12 years on my doctor's continued recommendation, I stopped back in September and will never go back after learning the side effects. Bone loss/osteoporosis and dementia are the two biggest and worst.
It took me almost 3 full months for the issue to be resolved (truly thanks to your videos and information), but I'm at a point where I no longer need medication thanks to proper usage of apple cider vinegar. There are many many videos online about reasolving the problem, this is one that helped me better understand (visually) what's going on and how to resolve it. It was by no means an immediate fix, but at this point I'm completely off Omeprazole and I'll never go back to it. Thank you, Dr Berg!
I have not washed my food down with drinks, but forced my body to make more saliva since I was 20. I'm now 75 and very rarely am bothered with Reflux or indigestion. I got this advice from, Back to Eden by Jethro Kloss.

ameen amigo!
Most welcome!
Enjoy your videos but I've noticed that in most cases when you recommend using a supplement such as betaine hydrocholoride in this case, you recommend taking a number of capsules or tablets of the supplement in question but do not specify what the typical dosage is of the supplement itself. In looking up betaine hydrocholoride, it seems to vary between 600mg to 1200mg. It would be great if you could include a baseline for the supplements you recommend. Also, several articles recommend taking the betaine in the middle rather than before eating and to include at least 6 oz. of protein with the meal.
You touched on something I tried about 12 years ago. I have never like very spicey food. But, one day, after taking a step back, I decided to think about something.....I wanted to counteract the acidy sensation. So, I went and had Mexican food but this time I used the very hot and spicey salsa. Like a light switch, the counteraction worked and I didn't feel that feeling anymore. Once those spicey peppers hit my stomach, it neutralized the acidy feeling I had in my stomach.
I had so much pain on my chest..didnt know what it wad,until the doctor ssis acid reflux
.im happy that i have the cause of the pain and a solution..i have no more pain now❤
Dr. Berg, over the summer, your channel showed as a recommendation on my UA-cam homepage. My wife and I watched an episode, and we've been following you since. Thanks so much for sharing you medical knowledge with us all! I have to tell you that your episode on digestion, bloating, and not having good bowel movements was like you made that episode for me! I've been taking your extra strength Gallbladder Formula as recommended for almost 3 months now and my bloating is almost non-existent, and I'm having normal bowel movements for the first time in years! Thank you so much! Do you also have your own formula of the ingredients you spoke of in this acid reflux/gerd episode? Thanks again for your spot on information! In closing, my wife and I both give you 2 thumbs up on your beard!
Yes, I have my Digestive Formula on the site that has Betaine Hydrochloride
Pickle juice for gastro-oesophageal reflux
@@Drberg Hey Dr. I am on Omeprazol and can't get off of fomotadine. How does someone use Betain HCL when they're on PPI's
I got acid reflux and stomach ulcers after I started eating ricecakes regularly (cheap bulk food for weight training) and then I remembered you warning about the alloxan that's in it. Turns out you were right.
What medicine you are taking if you don't mind may I know because I have the same problem
Please reply about what you taking...
Oh wow! I'm trying to do gluten free and rice is alternative but I always worried about the arsenic levels in rice...So I'm wondering if I just need to eat Vegetables some meat and occasionally fruit. If it wasn't for the vitamins and minerals I might lose through eating just vegetables I'd eat just vegetables.
Thank you Dr. Berg . I admire you for the clarity of your explantions and your wide knowledge. you are indeed unique.
I appreciate your comment! Glad to help!
I have an important question! Why sea salt and not iodine salt? As you may already know, most of the minerals naturally found in sea salt can be acquired through other foods in the diet in more meaningful quantities, it is not the case for iodine.
I have been diagnosed with acid reflux and my main symptom is throat irritation (not sore throat, but inflammation feeling coming from the back of my throat). Additional symptom is bloated stomach and lack of energy. Tried many different treatments and it's a hit and miss.
Learned many new useful information from this video. Will try them out.
How are you now?
@@silasiahunor4931
After 2 months, I am feeling about 50% better. I did take the following:
- zinc l carnosine
- vitamin D
- Probiotics
- raw banana powder
I also sleep in a position where my head is elevated and chew my food a lot more.
Note that I took betaine HCL for about 3 weeks and didn't see any changes and I think it has to do with me not knowing the correct dosage.
Most importantly is my energy has resumed and I am feeling fresh the entire day, it's a great feeling
I hope you get better!
@@silasiahunor4931 Thanks. Do you also have acid reflux?
@@Bennymix99 Yes. I have been to gastroenterolog (gastroskopi) they found acid damage on the sphincter. I never had problem with my stomach before 28 november last year. Ended opp in the emergency room. Gastritis. But I feel i have something moore. I shall see a private doctor nest week. I cant eat pantoprazol ( omneprazol) my kidney don`t like it not my stomach eather. I eat a banana on the morning, clean fodd rest off the day. ( not much) but I dont get better.
I suffered severe acid reflux for years - the burning pain in my throat was excruciating, and it even burned my Bronchial tubes which would set me off coughing till I was almost vomiting - and the cough (productive) would last for a week. I was already on PPI's and swallowing antacid tablets like they were jelly beans. It got so that I was scared to go to sleep at night and would lie awake for hours if I felt little burps coming up - which to me was a sign of imminent reflux. How did I get rid of it? - five months ago I started to eat an apple every day after my main meal of the day, and from the very first day my acid reflux problem vanished! You may think it is just a coincidence but I notice in the comments APPLE cider is mentioned. I no longer fear acid reflux bouts - my only fear is that I should forget to eat my Apple!
Thank you for the information, Dr. Berg! I am going to take the vitamins you provided because I have so much mucus drainage first thing in the morning, my ENT told me that it is GERD. He told me to take Gaviscon before bedtime. It helps a little bit.
I personally prefer Dr Berg's methods and don't care for any pharmaceuticals, even over the counter
Your advice is useful for people who truly have hypochloridia. Unfortunately
half the people who have GERD HAVE HYPERchloridia=overproduction of stomach acid. For those people, adding more acid, i.e. apple cider vinegar,makes the condition worse. There is a stomach acid test that can tell which condition is present. People should have this checked out before blindly going on an ACV protocol. You can't choose an appropriate treatment without a proper diagnosis.
That said, I appreciate in general your efforts to provide healthy alternatives to tradition pharmaceutical solutions.
Yes. Like j feel how when i eat tomatoes(tomatoes are the same as putting acid in my stomach for me) my stomach acid kills me. And with ppi i can even eat tomatoes and feel fine. How can i add more acid when the aim is to lessen it because that is when i have no reflux. And many of us have hiatal hernia, like i do, and that may be the cause. Simply we need a surgery to put the stomach back and the valve may close.
Isn't it just the lower esophagal sphincter relaxing? Allowing the stomach acid to go up into the esophagus rather than staying closed?
@@Marciushaget your hernia fixed first. Then see if you still have problems. Too much stomach acid is a good thing.
PPI’s are bandaids not proof you have too much acid
They want me to get the stomach acid test done but I'm not keen on a camera going inside me
I have had IBS since I was 28 and acid reflux since I was a child with regurgitation
Since I followed your advice I’m not sick anymore!!! I’m 60 this means I’ve been suffering from this mostly all my life. I’m amazed!!!! Exhilarating!! I have been to 4 different specialists and none of them ever mention this!!
Thank you very much, my life has changed in a way it’s hard to explain
I was so used to suffering from this, I thought I would never be able to feel well
Again, THANK YOU!!! ❤️
