How To Treat Acid Reflux Disease?
I take 40 mg's of omeprazol everyday, but I would love to know if there was a corrective procedure to fix acid reflux disease. Without the pills, I have extremely runny bowl movements (sometimes a yellowish or milky tannish grey) extremely frequent, I cant eat anything, my stomach gurgles loud and bubbles hard,and I have tremendous pain in my abdomen/intestinal are when I haven't had and pills within 2 days. Any advice or home remedies and or a corrective procedures?

Hi,
Looking at your description I would advise you to follow these guidelines to avoid acid reflux:
1. Avoid fried spicy and junk food.
2. Don't lie down immediately after taking meal.
3. You should take small and frequent meals and try to avoid overeating.
4. Complete abstinence of smoking and drinking as well as carbonated beverages like soft drinks and cola.
5. Have lots of fresh fruits and vegetables in your diet.
6. Have lots of fluids 4-5 liters a day.
7. Alley your anxiety and stress with relaxation exercises and yoga or meditation.
8. You should exercise regularly as much you can do.
Hope this helps you. Please feel free to ask for follow up question and I will be happy to help you.
