    Hi,
    I would love to hear if you have any dietary advice regarding the above.
    Other than taking Ranitidine twice a day.

    Many thanks,

    Hello Graham,

    Thanks for replying to my question re: the above,
    I’m not sure what other information you require, please advise.
    I am seventy years old and in good health apart from the condition mentioned.
    I did suffer from a tumour in my right kidney which had to be removed.
    I’m partially sighted, blind in left eye due to an accident.
    As far as I know nobody in my family suffered with a Hiatus Hernia or Heartburn.

    Regards,
    West2Jim

    Yes, I have cured myself of this in the last three months. I’ve suffered from acid reflux for the last three years and had a packet of Rennie in every handbag. I read the Clever Guts book in July 2017 and now eat a breakfast of raw oats, grated apple, grated ginger (half a thumb size) soaked for an hour in oat milk. I think the key ingredients are the apple and ginger. Good luck.

    Hi West2Jim

    Can you post a food diary/? What does your diet look like? Are you taking and prescribed or over-the-counter meds? How much alcohol do you drink? Do any particular foods or drink pre-dispose you to heartburn symptoms??
    Anything else that seems relevant ?
    Regards
    Graham
