Had a patient recently who called me as he was having a " cardiac " episode. He was driving. I suggested he drive himself to the hospital. He did. Got a checkup. Negative for cardiac event. They kept him overnight. Found nothing.
He came in to see me for an evaluation. Yes, we do that- Determine through NRT what is going on with the body systems. I found stomach and sigmoid colon to be involved. I suggested ACV 1 teaspoon in 4 Oz of water before meals.
He is traveling abroad but brought a small bottle of apple cider vinegar with him. ( It does come in gummies too) .
He just texted me to tell me his chest discomfort has been alleviated and to thank me.
Little things. Cause Big SYMPTOMS. He's got deficiency of hydrochloric acid in his stomach.
Very common, especially in older adults.
So, your GERD / REFLUX/ gas pain can contribute to feelings of indigestion and worse.
Digestive enzymes will most definitely help. Especially if you have no .
