99.9999999999999% of people who go on antacid medications for reflux actually produce too little stomach acid, which due to various physiological mechanisms manifests as what would intuitively appear as too much acid. it's a multi multi billion dollar a year industry. making up a fake problem so people "need" meds for it instead of addressing the issue

not wrong , u fat fuk

quit spammin my threads not my fult ur angry at the world cuz u got diabetes dont bring it in here

Diarrhea is a highly unspecific symptom. Could be anything. If you don't have acute pain or fever and don't have blood in your stool, then your age into consideration (i assume 20-35?) it can be Crohn's, celiac disease, irritable bowel syndrome, functional diarrhea and more...

Time of onset of the symptom? Is it only loose stools or proper watery diarrhea? Colour of stool? Do you have intestinal diseases running in your family? Abdominal pain? Food allergies? Medications? Nutritional supplements? Long term illnesses?



Wot? After using antacids or while using antacids? Are you talking about antacids specifically or PPI's?



Reflux is a result of low sealing pressure in the lower esophageal sphincter. Obesity is also a risk factor. Lowering acid production through PPI's makes the reflux less corrosive. I don't know where did you come up with reflux being from too little acid...?

shtahn Effurdong is his name now I know u rly r trooling

I was jus messin around with his dumbass kooler thing but its clear the research is catching up. low stomach acid causes reflux. I cant explain the mechanism but it happens. watch the video, look around articles.

not like it's unheard of for the medical/pharmaceutical industry to put people on useless or palliative medicines

I thought it was obvious I was trolling. Stan is a cool dude. He called me “big guy” in my DMs on IG. Clearly he’s a troll

If you haven’t figured it out already, though, big pharma in the USA treats symptoms, not the underlying issue. $$$$$$

if you're eating a lot of dairy, might mean you're lactose intolerant

His idea is interesting but i doubt there's scientific evidence so far. It sounds somewhat bro-science-ish and he's (not-so-)subtly marketing his "Vertical diet". The idea is interesting but i'm skeptical. The digestion part he got wrong, because food is mostly digested in the intestine, acid only helps initial digestion with pepsin, but isn't absolutely necessary. Food will pass on regardless.

Keep in mind, that for example NSAIDs increase ulcer risk by directly increasing gastric acid secretion through their mechanism of action. There is strong evidence for this, which would imply that excess acid indeed causes ulcers and heartburn. I'll look for some evidence on Pubmed.

How's the diarrhea and urgent need to crap after eating? Still bothers you?
