Guest guest Posted June 10, 2012 Report Share Posted June 10, 2012 It almost comes across as tongue-in-cheek Then again, how wonderful would it be if it was scientifically demonstrated that a commonly available and (very) well liked condiment had a real ability to decrease LES pressure temporarily!

Guest guest Posted June 10, 2012 Report Share Posted June 10, 2012 Lol! I sure didn't wait -- last summer, four months *before* I knew what was wrong, *my body* insisted and I changed my diet! Things I hadn't eaten ever, or much of for YEARS, it seemed to be insisting I *needed* -- I listened. Things on that list are practically the list of the Anti-GERD list reversed. . . . Chocolate, butter, tomatoes (acid), mint, lemon, bananas, milk, Mountain Dew. All of which " felt need " vanished within a week of the Heller. . . . All except butter, lol! /WV > > > > http://www.bioportfolio.com/resources/trial/82734/Efficacy-Of-Dark-Chocolate-In-\ Achalasia-Patients.html > > > > A tasty research study!
