Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) / Heartburn Drug Therapy

Drawbacks of Drug Therapy For Acid Reflux

Anti-reflux drugs, such as Omeprazole (Prilosec), Lansoprazole (Prevacid), Pantoprazole (Protonix), Rabeprazole (Aciphex), Esomeprazole (Nexium),Cimetadine (Tagamet), Ranitidine (Zantac), Nizatidine (Axid), Famotidine (Pepcid) are like a double-edge sword. They may be effective in suppressing gastric acid secretion and accomplish healing of esophagitis, gastric ulcer and duodenal ulcers. But strong inhibition of gastric acid (HCl) secretion, which in turn suppresses the secretion of gastrin (a hormone needed for digestion of protein) can at the same time cause an array of digestive problems simply because when food is present in the stomach, people who are taking these agents do not secret adequate gastric acid and enzymes for its digestion. This will cause indigestion, bloating, flatulence, constipation, esophageal candiasis plus possible side effects affecting other organs. These side effects are more severe when high protein diet (high content of meat, cheese, dairy products & beans) are consumed since protein digestion is initiated in the stomach and is essentially the only type of enzymatic digestion that occurs there.

The Proton Pump Inhibitors, due to their sustained action may cause more digestive problems than Histamine H2-receptor antagonists.

The Proton Pump Inhibitors should only be taken 4-8 weeks with repeat of 4-8 weeks therapy if desired result has not been achieved within the first 4-8 weeks therapy. Anti-reflux drugs are never meant to be taken long term. Long-term therapy will lead to accumulated side effects. Acid reflux may recur any time if you do not make major changes in your lifestyle. Anti-reflux drugs are only temporary treatments. If you have any doubt, ask your pharmacist for a package insert of the prescription PPI you are taking. You should find the information in the package insert.

Traditional medical doctors often tell their patients that they do not have alternatives other than the drugs. Obviously if they do not look beyond chemical drugs and the advice from pharmaceutical companies, they will not have any alternatives to offer to their patients.

Why suffer drug side effects unnecessarily?

 Digestinol.... Do you suffer from a digestive disorder like Crohn's Disease, GERD, or Acid Reflux? If so, our 100% all natural AMP capsules can help.

Aloe Mucilaginous Polysaccharides have direct anti-bacterial, anti-viral, anti-fungal, anti-yeast and anti-parasite effects. Chronic yeast growth can be controlled so the normal, healthy flora can then thrive more easily. Furthermore, the macrophages, monocytes, antibodies and T-cells are stimulated. Phagocytosis (when large white blood cells engulf particles) is dramatically increased to ingest foreign proteins. Aloe mucilaginous polysaccharides increases the number and intensity of all immune cells in the body.

Conclusion; The key to integrating healthy digestion with a healthy immune system is the oral ingestion of Aloe mucilaginous polysaccharides (A.M.P.).
