Introduction

Hi all,

I created this blog to reach out to all those reflux/gerd sufferers all over Europe and what we can do to better cope with it.

I'm a 27 year old male and have been diagnosed with reflux for almost 6 years now.

I've been taking PPI's (omeprazole, nexiam, proton pump inhibitors) for a couple of years.
Those helped me a lot the first 4 years. Problem is it hides the problem without being aware you don't tolerate certain foods, I kept drinking Soda, alcohol & pizza's once in a while (food for the gods) :p.

But...(there's always the but :p ), after 4 years they seemed to start giving some nasty side effects & aggravate my situation.

* It felt like my food wouldn't digest anymore
* I was even diagnosed with a very small ulcer/scar in my stomach while taking PPI's
* lost a lot of weight. (I weigh 56kg, always been skinny as a reference, I weighed 60kg when I was 19 years old and did a lot of sports).
* The doctor told me my body probably didn't cope well anymore with the meds and I had to quite them and use Gaviscon instead (yeah right, that would have been a family bottle of gaviscon each 2 weeks... very healthy !!! ).

So I started my journey wihtout taking anything and listening to what my body really needed.
those first 2 months are the worse in all my life, I had acid all the time...

Bit by bit I started to learn what gave me LOTS,Mild,No Acid/Reflux.
This is different for everyone by the way, but hey, you can try it out and see for yourself.

So I will try to post once in a while wat works and doesn't work for me.

I would like to thank Terry Macri for inspiring me to create this blog, see it as the european counterpart :-). Be sure to visit her blog, it contains wonderful recipes and try outs.
She's also willing to be you're guinea pig to test things out :-).

  3. I was diagnosed as HEPATITIS B carrier in 2013 with fibrosis of the
    liver already present. I started on antiviral medications which
    reduced the viral load initially. After a couple of years the virus
    became resistant. I started on HEPATITIS B Herbal treatment from
    ULTIMATE LIFE CLINIC (www.ultimatelifeclinic.com) in March, 2020. Their
    treatment totally reversed the virus. I did another blood test after
    the 6 months long treatment and tested negative to the virus. Amazing
    treatment! This treatment is a breakthrough for all HBV carriers.
