    Supplements with Acid Reflux

    Hello everyone,

    What would be the best supplements to take while dealing with acid reflux disease? Unfortunately I have the disease and to take Prilosec once in a whole bit try to keep my ph at a good level so acid reflux doesn't occur!

    Thanks everyone!

    What are you trying to accomplish from a supplement? There are millions out there, are you looking for a list of supps that don't cause reflux?

    Well, I'm trying to add some muscle I'm about 185 now I was 205 about 8 weeks ago before I started taking my diet seriously and cutting out as much as possible any acidic foods to prevent the acid burps and all that. Of course at 205 my stomach was fat and I have basically lost that by sticking to this diet.

    What I was looking into is a pre workout, creatine, and I'm not sure what else would be to my benefit of taking that would help me still build muscle just not cause the acid reflux build up.

    control/manage acid reflux in the normal course, and...

    creatine won't or shouldn't impact your issue any more than it already is.

    I've a cast iron gut, and the only thing that would bother me would be eating a rotting skunk. Not sure how sensitive you are to foods, or alcohol, so you'll have to employ a little trial and error. Everyone is different....

    Acidic foods and alcohol are alright as long as I'm taking Prilosec or something like that, that will help with the acid build up. When I'm not taking that then the acidic foods and alcohol really give me trouble.

    Just avoid uncoated vitamin C tabs and any aminos with the word "acetyl" in there.

    Alright, sounds good what would be the best pre workout to take? I have read where people say caffeine pills can work just like a pre workout?

    Do you mean that you have Barretts Esophagus? I myself have been diagnosed with it (scoped) and recently started generic Prilosec OTC. Instant relief after the first pill. Love it so far. It's a world or difference now, especially with the amount of food I'm always trying to consume.

    Get some Briggs Apple Cider vinegar and follow instructions. I suggest getting a shot glass..fill half with ACV and the other half with water or apple juice.
    This will make you feel better quickly.

    No I don't believe I have Barrets Esophagus. I have read about it before though. I did get scoped in February 2013 and Barrets Esophagus was never mentioned. Are you taking any supplements while you are on Prilosec OTC as well then?

    Ok I haven't tried that yet, I haven't tried L arginine either. May have to see how my stomach will react to them!

    Ok will check into that. What pre workout would work the best to get going for the workout. I need the extra push to get going and am still not sure how I would react to creatine either.

    Creatines never given me a problem. But. I usually take mine throughout my workout and have a tictac I'm my mouth all the way through. Just my thing lol. But as a pre w/o cut +bulk coffee. Although there are other boosters out there ppl can comment on I'm sure.

    Get beta alanine and bcaa together... with lecuine at e higher doses... it should be use pre, during and after training..with ur acid reflux issue, using glutamine into ur workout shakes after training helps.. But it's also wise to use pharma grade protein powder to avoid those artificial sweetener or flavorings that give discomfort in ur gut..

    Those creatine out there u get r using containing high in sugar and creatine at its lowest quality..

    Yea, I actually usually always run a raw plant protein because it doesn't hurt my stomach at all when I use it like it does if I use a type of whey protein and all that. Ok I will look for beta alanine and bcaas together when I go to the nutrition store.

    For acid reflux, try taking a shot of Apple Cider Vinegar. It works better than any medication I have tried.
