Acid Reflux
ACID REFLUX
In 1975, when I was 17 years old, I was taken to the doctor by my parents to be tested for a burning sensation in my throat and chest. I was taken through a series of tests, which concluded with an upper GI. I was told at that time that I should begin taking Maalox several times a day, not to eat Italian or Mexican foods, and to stay away from fast food restaurants. (Tell that to a 17 year old).
Within a couple of years I discovered Rolaids, and then I found Tums. They were my life saver. I have taken Tums for the last 27 years. Every pair of pants I own has a roll of Tums in the pocket. I purchased Tums by the 100 count bottle. My wife has a special Tums container in her purse just in case I misplace mine or run out. I very often would have to deal with terrible heartburn in the middle of the night, I actually would place a couple of Tums on the edge of my dresser before going to bed. My doctor has repeatedly informed me that I needed to be on an acid reflux prescription.
After searching for an alternative to starting the eventual journey to a handful of prescriptions a day, I was told about cellular zeolite. I received my first bottle of cellular zeolite on December 24 and began taking it three times a day, three drops at a time. At that time, I had half of a roll of Tums in my pocket. Today that half roll of Tums sits on my microwave. I have eaten tacos, Buffalo hot wings, baked spaghetti, pizza, and of course an amazing Christmas dinner just 18 hours after starting the drops of cellular zeolite. I have not needed or taken another Tums since.
