Home Remedies for Heartburn and Acid Reflux Symptoms

True Heartburn Relief

Heartburn is a Billion Dollar Business.

Prilosec, Nexium, and, Prevacid earn $14 Billion every year for heartburn relief, and they increase your risk of heart attack by 20%. (1)

Acid Reflux symptoms, or GERD, are “burning pain below the sternum, chest or even the throat” as the condition worsens.  I have a couple low to no cost home remedies for heartburn to share.

JAMA Neurology reported a 44 percent increased risk of dementia among people taking Prilosec, Nexium, or Prevacid. (2)  Look for yourself, it’s not my opinion.  It’s the observation of the American Medical Association, Neurology Department.

Real doctors in Indonesia noticed that Prilosec causes a much worse Gastro-Intestinal condition, SIBO, in 1 out of 4 patients they prescribe to, in the first month of use.  SIBO means Small Intestine Bacterial Overgrowth.  The symptoms are abdominal pain and diarrhea.  (3)

Prilosec does effectively reduce heartburn symptoms, but doesn’t quite resolve it.  “Most of the patients still had some reflux symptoms after 8 weeks.”  Perfect Medicine.  For making life-long customers, and the most Profit. (4)

Zantac and Pepcid earned another 300 Million for Heartburn Relief, in 2017.  Zantac only works 31.1% of the time. (5)  Wow, our culture has such low expectations for healing!  Healers can resolve heartburn with their hands.

Are you ready for these safe and effective home remedies for heartburn and acid reflux symptoms?

I use my hands to stimulate these points, and others use needles.  Researchers compared acupuncture to these five points and Prilosec for the treatment of GERD and acid reflux symptoms.

Stimulating these acu-points resolved 70% and markedly improved 93.3% over a course of 8 weeks…

…while Prilosec resolved 43.3% and markedly improved 66.7%! (6)

Hands on Home Remedies for Heartburn that works better than Prilosec.

I’m not sure what 28 acupuncture treatments cost (they treated every other day), or what Zantac twice a day for 8 weeks costs, but acupressure is free, and it can’t hurt.  At True Health, I use acupressure and plant medicines, and we seem to heal just about anything that walks through our doors.

This is our plant medicine that heals the stomach and GERD, in case you are too far away.  True Heartburn Relief

Yes, it’s tested and proven to work.  I didn’t even know that when I gave it to my patients, but it’s true, if you are willing to look!

Chamomile, Peppermint, and Licorice Root were tested just like Prilosec.  The patients that received True Heartburn Relief felt so much relief, the doctors concluded that it “improved dyspeptic symptoms significantly better than placebo.”  It works.  Dyspeptic symptoms may include upper abdominal fullness, heartburn, nausea, belching or upper abdominal pain, and are frequently caused by GERD.  (GastroEsophageal Reflux Disease) (7)

Take a look for yourself, or try it for yourself.  Plants don’t have side effects other than a bad taste, but you risk multiple side benefits.  Chamomile relieves the pain of migraine headaches. (8)  And “significantly relieves GAD, General Anxiety Disorder. (9)

There is more goodness in True Heartburn Relief!  Real Doctors from Bulgaria compared Comfrey and Calendula to Comfrey, Calendula and Antacids for treating ulcer pain.  Huh!?  That looks like they are testing the value of antacids.  That looks like they already know the value of plant medicines, and wonder if American Medicine offers additional help.

Heartburn was relieved in both groups, in 85-90% of the patients, and the ulcers were healed, when viewed by gastroscopy.

They reported that the addition of antacids resulted in a couple days faster relief of pain.  No additional healing.  But the plants work nearly every time. (10)

Comfrey and Calendula

Plants also add beauty to our world.  Medicine is the 3rd leading cause of death.  Ugly. (11) (11.5)

True Heartburn Relief also contains Meadowsweet.  Doctors in Serbia somehow heard the long history of using Meadowsweet for inflammation and ulcer protection.  I guess they were willing to look.

How they tested in the lab was over my head, not being a real doctor and all, but they concluded: “Current study supports documented traditional use of Meadowsweet.”  (12)

My Personal Experience

I’ve never had chronic heartburn, but one time I sipped a beer, and the 5% alcohol, or the carbonation, or whatever, gave me the worst heartburn!  Ouchy!

I did my best to meet my needs.  Our family had just encountered multiple, major life disruptions.  STRESS!  I took some True Calm, which eases tension, stress, and anxiety.  30 minutes later I tried a sip, and was able to enjoy my beer, pain free!

I’ve also used this hiatal hernia technique to relieve heartburn!

If you decide to give our Heartburn medicine a try, add True Calm for when life disrupts so much that you can’t even enjoy a beer.  Plus you’ll get free shipping!

True Heartburn Relief already sounds far superior to Pharmaceuticals, but theres even more!

Marshmallow Root and Slippery Elm: GERD Home RemediesGERD home remedies

It’s true.  Some plants lack scientific validation.  “Marshmallow has been used traditionally for respiratory, gastrointestinal, urinary, musculoskeletal, and genital systems as well as skin disorders.”(13)  Same for Slippery Elm!

Feel that! 

“Passed along for it’s value for 3,000 years, with no conflict of interest.  No profit to be made.”

Some people agree with me. DrAxe.com says Marshmallow (pictured) is one of the best remedies for heartburn.  And he is a very pretty man.

LiveStrong.com claims “slippery elm acts to coat the inflamed and irritated mucous membranes of the esophagus and lining of the stomach, neutralizing stomach acids. The University of Maryland Medical Center states slippery elm also appears to increase mucus production within the digestive tract. This  further coats, soothes and protects irritated tissues.

But their whole mission is based on a lie, right?

Lance Armstrong lied.  He used hormones that increase the body’s production of red blood cells. If he had taken birth control pills, testosterone or thyroid hormones, if medically diagnosed,  he would have been legit.

But, he took the hormones that rule makers banned.  I find the rules pretty confusing too.  The Rules seem rigged.  I lost 70% of my income because I helped this ladyhome remedies for acid reflux

I was kicked out of insurance for “treating a medical condition.”  They didn’t seem to care about results.  Interesting…

Mother Nature

I present documented proof that True Heartburn Relief offers better RESULTS than anything Big Pharma offers.  Some people just look away, because it doesn’t match what they’ve been led to believe.

I want you to look for yourself.  Do you want to believe that healing isn’t possible, and our only resource is a drug that masks your symptoms?  Do you want to keep contributing to the billion dollar profit of Big Pharma??

Faith, my Sunday School teacher when I was a little boy, warned me to watch out for false Gods.  I think she was talking about the wealthy white men you see on this page.

Take a chance on me.  Lol.  I would never lie, and I’m completely broke.

Click on the bottles below to order True Heartburn Relief.  I’m betting all in on God and Nature.  Literally.  If I get more returns than happy customers, I’d be out of business.

The other men on this page, paid the US Department of Justice 2.3 Billion to settle an investigation of the drug Bextra, for high rates of sudden death. (13)

I swear to you, if I make a billion dollars, it will be for providing healing to our people.  And I wouldn’t hurt people for more profit.

NOTE:  If you have been taking Prilosec for relief, don’t quit suddenly even in exchange for True Heartburn Relief.  Pharmaceuticals cause REBOUND symptoms when you stop them because of their suppressing nature.  Add nature for a couple weeks and then try a day without Prilosec.

True Yeast Relief

Medicine does not recognize Candida as a health condition.

Well, until it is so bad, that they can see it as an external lesion.  They cannot deny what they see with their own eyes, but they deny that your feeling like crap, could be Candida.  

LOL.  OK I see Candida now.  I believe you.

Candida Albicans

True Yeast Relief works better than anything else I have witnessed for yeast infections, thrush, or chronic Candida. 

Usnea is proven to be effective with Fluconazole resistant candida infections.  Yes, that is the most powerful pharmaceutical for Yeast Infections.  Lol.  Usnea beats that by itself.  Click here to read for yourself.

Barberry is proven to be one of the best to eliminate Candida Albicans.  Click Here to read for yourself.

Dr. Axe thinks Pau’D Arco is one of the best home remedies for Candida.

candida

Pau’D Arco Tree

Pau d’Arco — made from the bark of a large evergreen tropical tree found in the rainforests of the Amazon, South America and Latin America — is a potent anti-parasitic remedy with a long history of use by indigenous populations. It also has antimicrobial, antiviral, antibacterial, anti-fungal and anti-inflammatory properties, as well as analgesic, antioxidant, astringent and laxative effects. It’s one of the supplements I take on a daily basis for its mitochondrial, immune-boosting and anti-aging benefits.  –Dr. Mercola

Cat’s Claw is a South American tradition.  Native to the Amazon rainforest and other areas of Central and South America, cat’s claw is an herb you’ll find thriving in forest areas. You can easily spot it — just look for woody vines with hook-shaped thorns growing on them, resembling a kitty’s claw. This plant can grow to heights of 100 feet. The thorns actually serve an important purpose, though, as they allow the vines to attach themselves to tree barks.

You won’t find much scientific documentation, but if you believe the history of their culture, it sounds pretty valuable.

They probably lied though, so they could make more Money

Mother Nature

“Pay me and I will help you when you need, I insure it.”

I was willing to try Cat’s Claw, and it resolved a horrifying fungal sinus infection.  (I’m the patient with some regularity, lol).  And, Cat’s Claw resolved the pain of diverticulitis in this Case Study.

Dr. Axe thinks it’s pretty amazing too!

Bee Balm, Wild Bergamot, Sweet Leaf.

They couldn’t decide on the name, but they shared the value.  This pretty flower offers us roots and leaves that are considered more effective at eliminating Candida than Oregano.

candidaSweet Leaf made the cut for best ever, while oregano did not, in my personal experience after 20+ years of healing.  They call it practice.  Lol.  One patient inquiry asked if I am still practicing.  I said, “No, I think I figured it out.”

I’m even willing to BET on Mother Nature, or put my money where my mouth is.  If you buy two bottles of True Yeast Relief, and you do not see a response, send the second bottle back, unopened, and I will refund your entire purchase.

Quit Smoking

True Addiction Relief allowed me to quit tobacco with very little discomfort.

True Addiction Relief is the plant medicine I created to take away the hurt of withdrawal symptoms. Also the crazy craving of addiction to make it easy to quit smoking or chewing tobacco.  I’ve tried quitting over 100 times. However, by using this product, this time was a breeze.

Check out the plants I put together to end addiction!  (When you are ready, of course!)

Horsetail:  This plant contains a very low dose of nicotine. This makes our medicine equally as effective as nicotine gum or patches.  Science proves Horsetail helps the kidneys filter water better than a prescription diuretic. This is in case you have trouble with swollen ankles.

quit smoking

Used topically (just mix a bit in coconut oil), it has proven to decrease pain and inflammation in the 10 days after an episiotomy. This is while cutting the need for Tylenol in half!  You’ll have to look up episiotomy if you don’t know what it is. I couldn’t bear to describe that horrifying medical procedure.

Read the studies Here!

Wild Oat Seed:  Doctors in Europe are convinced this medicine is effective for improving cognitive function, and are now studying which dosing works the best.  Read Here.

Wild Oats and St. Johns Wort were tested to see if they would help opioid drug addiction.  Results of this study showed that “these medicinal plants can be effective in controlling deprivation, decreasing dependency creation, and possibly detoxification of opioid addicts.

St. John’s Wort and Wild Oat Seed

In my Top 10 Plant Meds for Depression Blog, I share a study that proved St. John’s Wort to be 70% better than Paxil for the treatment of Major Depression!

“In the past there was  Lobelia  in anti-smoking products as a deterrent for those with a smoking addiction. However the sale of smoking products that contained lobelia was prohibited by the Food and Drug Administration in 1993 because it was not helpful to those who were addicted to smoking.”  HerbWisdom.com

However, there are no studies that validate their conclusion, nor are there any studies proving it’s benefit to help quit smoking.  But 2000 years of written history says give Lobelia a try to quit smoking. 

Smoking tobacco dates back to 3000 BC. And apparently if you smoke too much, the nicotine can be addictive.  Back then, if you found yourself craving tobacco, you’d take Lobelia to ease the addiction.  So,  Big Tobacco added some chemicals to “hook the brain” on nicotine, leaving us nearly helpless to quit smoking.  quit smoking

If you click through to the studies, you will see that the 4th study concludes that Lobelia has good potential as efficacious treatments for methamphetamine abuse.

The strength to endure the fight comes from three powerful adaptogenic plants.  They help adapt to stress, strain, and the pain of withdrawal.

Fo-Ti is proven to protect the brain from toxic chemical know to destroy brain cells.  Read it yourself, dude!  Harvard Medical School researchers concluded that Ginseng shows promise for cocaine addictionRead it yourself.

This study says that Rhodiola prevents relapse to nicotine addiction, in animal models.

Catnip’s use in European folk medicine for generations is as a calming agent for body and mind. It is gentle and is very useful for children and infants.

Because of this,  I use Catnip in “True Sleep” as well.

If you’d like to try the medicine, and/or the acupressure I used to ease cravings and withdrawal symptoms, I described my entire protocol on my Nicotine Addiction BlogGet True Addiction Relief in our Online Store!

How to Increase Breast Milk Production and Relieve Postpartum Depression.

True Postpartum Vitality

Three Million women go to the doctor each year for help with Postpartum Depression.  Slightly less than Four Million babies are born each year.  Not very good odds.  Relieve depression and Postpartum anxiety, plus I’ll show you how to increase breastmilk supply.

Almost all Mothers have concerns about whether their milk supply is adequate.

This is Nature’s gift to new Mothers, giving strength and happiness during a time of challenge.

One of my patients searched for “How to Increase Breastmilk Production” and found fennel seed.  She bought some from Walgreens, and reported that “it made her armpits stink and did nothing for milk production.”  Lol

That was not the effect she was looking for!  I explained to her that Walgreens supplements and herbal medicines were found to not have the actual ingredients listed on the package.  (1)

True Health uses plant medicines produced by farmers that sell exclusively to doctors.  They have to bottle “the good stuff” or we stop buying, because we have to face our patients in follow up visits.

And why would I buy more of something that didn’t work?

The National Library of Medicine reports that Chaste Tree Berry and Fennel Seed are the most effective plant medicines to increase milk supply, a quality they describe as galactagogue.  (2)  A galactagogue is an herb that is used to help increase breastmilk production in nursing mothers.

postpartum anxiety

Chasteberry Tree Flowers

My patient reported that “I only need to take a couple doses and my milk supply returns to more than adequate.  And True Health plant medicines didn’t “make her armpits stink.”  Lol.

She got what she wanted.

True Postpartum Vitality is a blend of plant medicines, that the National Library of Medicine agrees, works well to increase milk production, and improve postpartum anxiety.

It also contains German Chamomile and Lemon Balm, which were given to a group of colicky babies, along with Fennel.  The babies averaged crying 3 hours and 20 minutes per day.  After one week, average crying time was decreased by 2 hours and 25 minutes, while those receiving a placebo decreased by less than 30 minutes, which is five times more effective than a placebo.  (3)

These plants were also found to relieve indigestion and tummy aches and significantly calm stress and anxiety.  (4, 5)

You can get the most carefully prepared plant medicines from farmers that produce for doctors; formulated by observing which plants provided the best results in our Clinic.

True Postpartum Vitality includes the best plants for postpartum anxiety and depression and to increase breast milk production.

Doctors in Australia asked rural people how to increase breastmilk supply and relieve postpartum depression.

Fenugreek and Blessed Thistle are two of the most common plants for postpartum care.  59.9% of nursing Mothers used traditional plant medicines, and 70.1% said there is a lack of resources to learn the value of plants.  (6)

I’m sharing the research and traditions of plant medicines to balance out the lack of resources to learn the healing that Mother Nature offers.

Researchers decided that Blessed Thistle protects the brain from degenerative diseases.  (7)

postpartum anxiety, breast milk production

The traditional use of Fenugreek is to strengthen and balance hormones.  Real doctors found it worthy of testing, and discovered that it increased estrogen by 120% in hormone depleted women.  If you are not depleted, it still gives strength(8)

The traditional use of Cordyceps is to increase mood, energy, and immune defenses.  The National Library of Medicine scientifically reports that it gives you more fight.

Tail Suspension Test: Postpartum Depression Causes

The manly way to test for antidepressant activity is the Tail Suspension Test.

Researchers suspend a mouse by it’s tail, and measure the number of seconds it is immobilized in fear, compared to the time it’s fighting for it’s life.  If they fight more, the drug is a success.  They cite the example of Lithium, prescribed for bipolar disorder which increases struggle time by 20%.

Cordyceps increased struggle time by 33%.  (9)   Scientifically, that means it is ready for human testing for the treatment of depression.

I’m a bit on the sensitive side, but I never, in a million years, would have come up with “The Tail Suspension Test” as way to determine the healing nature of anything.

Manly men shouldn’t be in charge of healing, and pharmaceutical profit shouldn’t decide what the best medicine is.

We have “home remedies” for allergies, pain, wounds or injuries, anxiety and PMS, just to name a few.  All our plant medicines come from the most careful farmers and deliver the best results Dr. Stone has seen in over 20 years of practice.  

Maybe you can feel integrity?
