Woke up early 5.00 with acid reflux better now with Gaviscon. Too much rich food and drink yesterday.
... you may be getting gall bladder over-stressed, common in middle age with carb/sugar-heavy rich western diets
... try digestive enzyme supplement containing cholic acid (bile acids, ox bile) taken with meals

... has also been linked to promoting healthy stomach biome that reduces blood pressure
... Gaviscon is not helping fix the problem it's just masking the symptom for temporary relief, like most Big Pharma products
... also, eat lots more green veges
no antacid is worthwhile they have bad side ingredients.
powdered calcium in warm distilled water is milk like in flavor with a bit of chalky mouth feel.
it is basically a fully purified tums or rolaids antacid tablet in warm liquid form
far better then using pepto bismal or rolaids or tums or any flavored knock off.
it is a patch for relief not a cure. you need to find out why the acid leaks out.
a lot of possible reasons.
