A Simple Start to Naturally Treat Acid Reflux!

My name is Bob Barton and I have been naturally cured from Acid Reflux for years! It wasn't always this easy though. Over 30 years ago, I almost lost my life while on the operating table for stomach surgery caused by stomach acid eating a hole in my esophagus! Thanks to God and a simple apple, I discovered a natural way to treat my acid reflux. And 3 decades later, I haven't stopped discovering natural remedies for heartburn/acid reflux/GERD! Over the years, my research-based website and reports have helped over a thousand reflux sufferers with a 97% success rate! I have dedicated my life to the business of helping people live acid reflux-free lives. To get you started with naturally treating your Acid Reflux, please follow these Reflux Rules!

Acid Reflux Lifestyle Changes to Make:

1. Stop smoking today! You need to finally make this change for good!

2. Stop drinking alcohol!

3. Exercise! Find a fitness center that works for you. Many fitness centers are open 24 hours a day. If not, go for a walk 15 minutes a day!

4. Eat small meals! You should eat 5 meals a day (not 3 big meals). The meals should be smaller than the size of your fist.

5. Wear loose clothes! You don't have to look like a clown. Just find something that is not tight on your abdominal region.

6. Avoid lying down for at least 3 hours after a meal. (You might need to get a watch!)

7. Raise the head of your bed 6-8 inches by putting wooden blocks under front bedposts. (This is better than extra pillows)

8. Memorize the causes of acid reflux (above) and make the necessary changes.

Finally, I would recommend taking a look at my website where I explain what changed my life and cured my acid reflux. This cure might work for you and I would love to help with other remedies!
