[QUOTE="BadassBlues, post: 244942, member: 38526"] As mentioned above, diet plays a main role in the reflux aspect... at least for me. Coffee, wine and certain foods are a trigger. I am not going to avoid coffee and wine as... well, a guy's gotta live ;) I have adjusted my intake, and have eliminated the main food culprits (Sweets, greasy foods). I stay mainly on a low carb diet and I do take digestive enzymes. But I still get heartburn and I have a very sensitive spot in the back of my throat from the acid reflux happening over the years. Omeprazole has alleviated most of that, but the long-term use appears to have some potentially serious side effects. I'm not getting any younger unfortunately and have to find alternative measures to deal with it. I also believe that long term PPI use interferes with digestion. I appreciate all of the input and suggestions. I'm trying the licorice and have started melatonin again. I have used licorice for adrenal support in the past, but never for acid reflux. Alka Seltzer and antacids work well when I have a flare up. [/QUOTE]
