Orange peel extract for gerd?
| Tue, 05-22-2007 - 11:55am |
I suffer from frequent heartburn and acid reflux. I have been trying a variety of OTC antacids for some time, with limited results. I was doing some reading on the internet today, and found several articles on the benefits of orange peel extract for this type of condition. Just wondering if anyone out there has tried this, and whether you found it helped.
Many thanks for your input.

I have never tried that but, let me know how it works or what you find out because I too suffer from severe GERD and I am now on nexium twice a day!!
Personally, I don't see how this extract can have a positive effect on GERD symptoms and would suggest that you check with your doctor before using it. Since products that claim to be 'natural' are not regulated, you really have no way of knowing exactly what you will be ingesting, or how it may interact with other medications.
Please be careful! We all want an 'unmedicated' way to treat our ills, but sometimes we can do more harm than good.
