Acid reflux

Yeah. Fat fucks who eat like shit have digestive problems.

Fix the diet, and problems have a tendency to go away.

Now go lift something and see if there is a direct correlation between that and being less of a pussy.

I had horrible acid reflux before getting back in shape for over a decade. After about the first 20lbs lost the acid reflux and constant heartburn pretty much disappeared.

Losing the weight and fixing my diet was far more effective than Zantac 2x/day and eating antacids like candy.

Is this a metaphor?

My poo is a lot harder to pass, and a lot harder to flush. It's like shoving a brick down there out, and flushing a brick down the toilet.

I was on nexium daily for the last few years even as a teen. I was skinny then but my diet was shit. I spoke with my doctor about reducing nexium usage in November. So I started eating much better and smaller portions. I got down to only taking it once a week in January and then I tried going off it all together and I was fine. I now only take zantac as needed maybe once every few weeks if I'm stupid and overeat or drink to much OJ for breakfast. Losing weight and eating healthy has done wonders.

Acid reflux is your body shit testing you. Every time it happens, cut your head off and put it on a robot body. Playing dread game with your own body might sound harsh, but your body will comply and you'll thank me for some solid advice.

Obama hides under beds and plants cameras in your heads.

Nope. Tomatoes light me up like the first day. I have other trigger foods too. I would say that I don't medicate everyday anymore. It was from a diet changed. Not related to my rp diet. Just finding trigger foods fixed it mostly for me.

Getting better from dietary changes? Obviously. Getting better from TRP? No.

I had serious acid reflux form HS until I was in my early thirties. Finally cut out soda completely and watched the pH conflict w/ some foods and wow, who knew? No more acid reflux.

You should also add a probiotic gut regime as that will help too. Things like Yogurt, Kefir, Kombucha, Kimchi, fermented pickles and even lowly sauer kraut. Years of fucked up eating, with things like food emulsifiers, sugar, and antibiotics can throw off the gut flora and make your digestive tract do crazy things.

Yes. 35lbs ago I use to pop tums like they were candy and do regular prilosec treatments throughout the year. I've been doing Primal for a quite a bit and that is what broke me through the heartburn and the weight.

Also snoring decreased by a factor of 10. Now I'm taking ZMA (after reading some IF thread around here) and this weekend I went right into REM and hardly ever hit the light snoring zone according to my wife.

Redpill for life. Literally.

Mine has gotten much more manageable with the weight loss and diet improvements, but has not gone away entirely. Getting in shape has also reduced my use of ibuprofen, which I used to take like candy.

I've been on a strong prescription medication to manage it for 6 years. In the 6 months, I have reduced it from daily to once a week and supplement with Zantac as needed.

Just an FYI, sometimes it isn't just diet and weight. I have a hiatal hernia, which prevents your stomach from sealing off properly at the esophagus. It doesn't affect me in any other way, so my key is to not lay down within 3 hrs of eating.
