Acid Reflux Therapy with Organic Alginate, Rapid & Long Lasting Gerd, LPR & Digestion Symptom Support, Zero Sugar, Gluten Free, Low Sodium, Berry Burst, 47 Gel Servings, 8 OZ Bottle, 2 Pack

This is a review of RefluxRaft Acid Reflux Therapy with Organic Alginate, Rapid & Long Lasting Gerd, LPR & Digestion Symptom Support, Zero Sugar, Gluten Free, Low Sodium, Berry Burst Flavor, 47 Gel Servings, 8 OZ BottleI’ve tried several different products to battle LPR, and those with alginate work best for me, which is why I chose this Refluxraft product. The Berry Burst flavor is fine. While it is not as tasty as actual berries, for such a product, it tastes quite good. In other words, it is tasty for a medical product. And, in fact, though I like good flavor in my food, it is probably healthier that this isn’t so tasty that I want to eat too much of it! This reflux product suggests using 1 to 2 teaspoons at a time (unlike one product I have used that suggests taking 1 to 2 tablespoons at a time). I usually take it before bed since acid reflux gets worse when I lie down. I try to put it way back in my throat since I’ve already brushed my teeth and want to keep them clean—alginate products work best if you don’t eat or drink after taking them. But I am wondering if I should start taking it after large meals; I might try that. So far this has worked and has not caused any adverse reaction.

Tastes great! Actually works!

I take it 30 min before bed. It works pretty well most of the time. I just wish it wasn't high in carbs (3 g in 1 teaspoon). If it weren't for that, I'd use it during the day too.

Works pretty well for me. Not crazy about the texture but it seems to keep the burning down and out of my esophagus. I used it a few times to get used to the thick texture of the syrup. If I swallow quickly, as if it were a pill, it’s much more tolerable. I like that it works pretty quickly and that it’s not a proton pump inhibitor so it doesn’t impact bone strength and iron absorption.

Fast shipper

This is quite thick, and a little hard to swallow by itself. It’s really heavy on the flavoring, it masks the algae-based ingredients. It is good if you only drink this occasionally when needed because it has a decent 2-year shelf life. It had 18 months remaining. For me it is usually needed if I eat too much right before bedtime. If you don’t like the berry flavor, they also have this in lemon, but that is much more acidic. Considering the price and consistency/flavor, this is really a love it or hate it type of product.

I've had good results from using this supplement before bed to ease heartburn symptoms.I only need a small amount each night, so I estimate at least a month's worth of servings in two bottles.The taste is just ok. It doesn't taste like medicine, but it also doesn't taste excellent. It has a very thick texture, which I assume is necessary to combat heartburn. I like keeping my bottles in the fridge to improve the taste.

Warning. This product did not work for me and it burned my throat. My reflux is worse from taking it, and Amazon says it is not returnable. Even though the manufacturer’s website says their “Gerdy’s Guarantee” allows returns (30 days) for any reason, Amazon says it is not returnable after 5 days. I chose to try this product because it is aluminum-free, unlike Gaviscon UK (which DOES work and DOES NOT burn my throat). I contacted the manufacturer directly regarding this issue, and they apologized for the problem and issued a full refund. So they do honor their guarantee if you contact them directly. If you purchase directly from Amazon and have a problem like I did, you will have to contact the manufacturer. Amazon does not allow returns for this item.
