Thanks for all the great advice. But I've been there and done that with most of it. I eat a very limited diet. Of what I would give for a piece of chocolate or some sphagetti and meatballs. I've tried Omeprezole all the way up to Nexium. Not only the PPIs, but also the H2 Inhibitors and Tums. I even had surgery for it fully expecting great results, but not so. Some people say they take Omeprezole and then eat anything they want. That has never been the case with me. Each person is different as to what they can tolerate. Some people's systems seem to be more sensitive to certain things than others.
I just got the Wheat Belly Book and am reading it. I will be getting the cookbook today, hopefully. I have already cut out whole wheat bread. Made some bread today made out of almond nut flour.
Another thing I've cut out is milk, which I used to eat in all forms....milk, cheese, cottage cheese, yogurt, etc. That really helped alot. I use Almond Milk now.
I'm wanting to make some different drinks in my blender. I can't use Whey Powder. I can't stand it. I added the Carnations Breakfast Drink Mix to get some protein and vitamins. I know it is a processed item and not the best choice. Doctor had suggested it after surgery.
To the person with the recipe, thanks it sounds good (except for the whey protein).
I think some of my problem is that I have to bend over alot. I have dogs and I am always having to bend over to pick them up, feed them, clean something up, etc. I try not to bend over as much as possible, but in life I find you do have to bend over. And they never wait until my food has had to digest and leave my stomach.
To the person that mentioned the wedge. I was using a wedge, but have graduated up to an adjustable bed. I still find if I don't lay just right....if I slide down or get out of position I have some problem....not burning, but feel something going on.
I've also tried honey. I've tried vinegar. Both of those were bad experiences for me. I think what works for one, doesn't always work for the next person.
An OTC pill containing digestive enzymes have been great for me.
Anyway, thanks to everyone. If you have any great drink recipes, send them my way.
