Natural Heartburn Acid Reflux Relief Support Supplement for GERD, LPR, Indigestion, Aid for Intermittent Fasting, Alginate Therapy, Made in The USA, Vanilla Caramel

Aside from the fact that this stuff works like a charm and keeps my laryngopharengeal reflux at bay, it tastes like the most delicious ice cream topping you can possibly imagine… It’s really hard to restrict myself to only 5 mL at night! If you’ve ever had Baskin-Robbins turtle pie- that’s what this stuff tastes like! I take it after I’ve eaten everything for the day about an hour before I go to sleep and no more acid reflex bubbling up into my throat & hearing funny little noises every time I lay down! I’m getting so much better sleep now too!

Dr records recently for acid reflux. Seems to work real well.. easy to keep in bag or tote. When traveling. Taste is not bad.. thick like a syrup.

I think this is a good alternative for taking medicines, obviously this is completely subjective to personal health and severity of symptoms. I’ve had pretty bad GERD and get that throat acid feeling after eating, which is just an issue with the lower sphincter. I like this product because it addresses the anatomical issue by creating the raft with alginate. Keep in mind, they did not create the alginate concept, “sodium alginate” is the key ingredient that gives the “raft” floating concept on top of the stomach acid, which in theory is supposed to stop or reduce the acid refluxing from stomach to esophagus. This is basically a version of Gaviscon (advance or dual action) and other alginate products, but it’s a good product. Things I don’t like and believe others would also agree (I’ve also tested this product on hot vinegar so I can see how it actually works, trying to replicate the stomach environment:- 5ml recommended dose is unlikely to create enough raft to sufficiently do the job, based on the volume of the stomach. When I put 5ml (1tsp) in 99f vinegar, the raft formation is about the size of a quarter coiled up.. therefore, you probably need more like 10-20ml (Gaviscon recommended dose), which significantly increases the already expensive product.-As my previous note alludes, the product is already expensive at the recommended dose, considering someone will have this multiple times per day, you realistically need to order 2-3X more often making it very unaffordable-I like the product claims all natural ingredients but does have ambiguity around all ingredients. Considering the taste is pretty good, makes me want to know exactly what I’m putting in my body multiple times a day. Just because something is natural, doesn’t mean I may want to consume it.-People with reflux who are trying to find solution other than a pill, likely do not want multiple grams of sugar per serving multiple times per day. As mentioned, if you need 2-3X the dose each time, your looking at 5-10g of sugar each serving.. many people take this before bed which is not ideal to slam that amount of sugar before bed. I rather stevia or something so I’m not hyped on sugar + calories.Overall would recommend, but if some of the negative aspects such as cost make this inaccessible to you, you can likely also make your own sodium alginate/calcium carbonate blend (search online) or just buy Gaviscon (make sure it’s not the USA version because that oddly does not have the sodium alginate/carbonate blend). If they reduced sugar/use stevia instead along with creating a larger version at a more reasonable cost, I would definitely recommend and buy more.

First night using it and I already noticed a difference. I have been in an awful flare up of GERD, but I feel like this may help me recover more quickly and be able to eat actual food. You know how hard it is to eat a low acid diet for an extended period of time? Very hard. Of course moderation is advised. I wouldnt eat fried chicken with a bunch of vinegary sides, and then expect it to be as effective. I think this may help me taper off and stop the use of PPI's.

My Endocrinologist suggested I take this every day after I had an Endoscopy. I don’t have a Gall Bladder so my bile builds up and doesn’t get removed line it should.I Haven’t used this product, but for about 4 days, so I don’t know if this will help with reducing my stomach acid. The taste and texture is definitely unique. Not horrible tasting, but it’s like eating a spoonful of caramel ice cream topping, with a bit of a funky taste. I do wish they made more flavors than Vanilla Caramel Creme and Chocolate Mint. Plus it’s pricey at $28 for an 8 oz tube. Taking 1 tsp in tbd evening There should be at least 47 servings in a tube which breaks down to just under $0.60 a serving. So I guess the cost per serving is less than a cup of coffee.

Does this stuff work? Absolutely! Worked like a charm the first time. The taste is tolerable. Moments after I swallowed it, it made my acid reflux vanish.

It seems to work. I still need my prilosec, but I've been able to cut back to a half dose with the help of this product. I take it before bed, and sometimes after a meal that's large or acidic. In addition to helping with reflux, it gives me a feeling of "fullness / satiety".Being curious, I tested it in a simple experiment alongside competitor Reflux Raft. I put 1 tsp of each (the recommended dosage for both) in some white vinegar (pH similar to stomach) at about 99 degrees (to approximate body temp). After a minute or two, both created nice rafts, but Reflux Gourmet's was about double the volume of the other one, as you can see in the photos (RG on left, RR on right). This makes sense since, according to their ingredients panel, RG has about 75% more "proprietary alginate complex". RG is also slightly cheaper, so the choice seems clear for me.

REFLUX GOURMET Natural Heartburn Relief is one of those rare medical-ish products that actually tastes good. I was expecting chalky, medicine-flavored sadness — but it’s smooth, creamy, and honestly tastes like dessert your grandma would sneak you when your parents weren’t looking.Effectiveness? It’s pretty good. Not a magic potion, but definitely takes the edge off minor reflux or those “oops-I-had-salsa-again” moments. I wouldn’t call it a heavyweight champ for raging GERD battles, but for mild or occasional flare-ups (especially something like LPR or light-duty GERD), it holds its own nicely.If your reflux is more “mild drama” than “full-blown firestorm,” this might be your tasty little hero. Just don’t expect it to wrestle down a triple-pepperoni pizza situation.
