Fresh Kefir for heartburn?

[Guest guest]

I'm writing this partially as a question, and partially as information.

My MIL has had chronic heartburn for over 40 years. She has tried

everything from pharma drugs to ACV and other natural remedies.

Recently, she started to drink fresh homemade kefir every day. Ever

since she started over 3 weeks ago, she has not had a stitch of

heartburn. Normally she would get it 3-4 times a week. Now, NOTHING.

She has not done anything different in her diet other than adding the

kefir.

Interestingly enough, yogurt is one of the many offending foods that

actually causes her heartburn. But the kefir helps her.

I'm curious if anyone else has had this result; I have not heard of

kefir as a heartburn remedy.

And if you have heartburn problems, maybe you want to try this one out!

HTH,
