Acid Reflux: Traditional Homeopathic Supports
Yet another one of those miserable things.
And how much worse it is, when it is in response to something you ate that was really good?
Sigh.
Here are the homeopathic remedies traditionally associated with acid reflux:
1. Nux vom
For reflux associated with indigestion from food (particularly spicy, or greasy), alcohol, or junk food/overly processed. Can be nauseas and feel relief from heartburn after vomiting.
2. nat phos
The cell salt associated with reflux particularly in babies. Can be very sour smelling, with sour vomit. May have a yellow coating on the tongue and issues from dairy and/or sugar.
3. ars alb
For reflux with a burning quality, can also have nausea, diarrhea, and anxiety with it. Often caused by food poisoning or from eating fruit.
4. carbo veg
For reflux that causes bloating with loud belching. There can also be a lot of tiredness or exhaustion.
5. iris versicolor
Specifically indicated for reflux, this has constant burning and nausea with bitterly sour vomiting about an hour after eating. This type can lead to headaches.
6. robinia
Very intense reflux that is very sour and worse at night. There can be a lot of belching, and will have to sit up as laying down makes it worse. As a result this can cause a lot of issues with trying to sleep.
