Structural Abnormalities
An incompetent esophageal sphincter may be the cause of heartburn. This sphincter is supposed to stay shut when we are not swallowing food. Some people with full stomach contents or on bending may have acid or water brash up into the throat. Their valve leaks out the stomach contents. Wearing clothes too tight around the waist actually pushes up the stomach contents. In the past, women were discouraged from wearing corsets, tight belts or pants for this reason." - Heather Caruso, Your Drug-Free Guide to Digestive Health (Get the book.)

Betaine HCL
Betaine HCL is a supplement that is used as a digestive aid. Betaine HCL is made with beet sugar and attached to hydrochloric acid. This attachment makes it safe to swallow and doesn't damage the esophagus. The HCL makes a more acid environment in the stomach."

| "A Folk Remedy for the Ages
So what is apple cider vinegar anyway? And why do all these people sing its praises?
Vinegar itself is a terrific food. It can actually be made from any fruit as long as it's fermented to less than 18 percent ethyl alcohol. The kind made from apples, however, has some special properties. It's a virtual infusion of amino acids, vitamins, and minerals. Unpasteurized vinegar can contain as many as fifty different nutrients, especially if the "starting" material is as rich in nutrition as apples." - Jonny Bowden, Ph.D., C.N.S., The Most Effective Natural Cures on Earth: The Surprising, Unbiased Truth about What Treatments Work and Why (Get the book.)
| "First and foremost, says Keyes, periodontal infections in adults can be prevented and mild infections can be controlled by careful dental self-care (oral hygiene) with such inexpensive and natural products as salt, baking soda, hydrogen peroxide, and apple cider vinegar. These substances are potent bacterial killers. "In sufficient quantity, they instantly kill many of the microorganisms associated with gum infections on contact," said Keyes." - Stephen Sinatra, M.D. and James C., M.D. Roberts, Reverse Heart Disease Now: Stop Deadly Cardiovascular Plaque Before It's Too Late (Get the book.)
| "As an alternative to this, some people receive great relief from serious acid indigestion by taking one or more teaspoons of unpasteurized apple cider vinegar in a little water before meals. This encourages the stomach's natural production of HC1 and, while it has an acid effect in the stomach, it leaves an alkaline mineral residue in the body. If this does the trick, it is a win-win solution.
The permanent solution to low stomach acid is to address its cause. The reason the stomach secretes insufficient acid is because the body lacks the necessary vitamins and minerals to produce it." - Ron Garner, Conscious Health: A Complete Guide to Wellness Through Natural Means (Get the book.)

"For acid taste, use citrus (including lemon, lime, grapefruit, and orange), apple cider vinegar, and sauerkraut. For salt, use Celtic salt, which contains eighty-two minerals. It is an uncooked, live salt. I consider miso a live food because when it is fermented, it is activated with enzymes. Miso creates a very nice salt taste, and barley miso can be used as a bouillon substitute. Olives are good for a fat and salt taste, and they are the most mineralized fruit."
