In this video we review a list of known side effects of long term acid reflux medication usage. All these medications (H2 blockers, PPIs, Antacids) are known to reduce acidity. As a result your body is unable to properly digest foods and consequently your body is unable to absorb many key vitimins namely B12, Magnesium, and Calcium. These deficiencies, in turn cause neurological, nueromuscular, and bone density side effects. For articles on these deficiencies, go here: Vitamin B12, Calcium, and Magnesium.
I also talk about the supplements that I took to improve my stomach pH and digestion. Both of which, have a direct effect on reflux. For more on this view my supplements page. To receive a free copy of my personal journal and acid reflux transition guide go here.

Hello, Don
I have the folowing symptoms and my ENT and GAstro doc said its from Acid reflux : Post nasal drip,terrible muscle and joins pains, severe acidic taste in my mouth, sore red throat, burping, diarrhea, eye twitchng and headache, and blrry vision. I don’t take PPI but take DGL complex by Pure encapsulations, Digestive ensymes, B12, and Heartburn essentials by Pure encapsulations. My B12 level is great though, so is Magnesium. I am scared to take HCL and apple cider vinegar due to chest pain.
Thanks,
Ruzanna
