Warning, vinegar can hurt the skin - It hurts mine quite badly - so it's how to get acid into the stomach without burning mouth and throat that is the key.
Some people use squeezed lemon juice or even hydrochloric acid of the right strength.
Also, it's important to stop taking ant-acids as for many people they actually cause acid reflux due to "acid rebound"

and to your covering up a problem of rebound .
my digestive troubles before i knew better with my last pregancy i had terriable acid unlike my first 2 which only was mild and lasted for just a little while , the doc gave me gaviscon and told me i could take up to a tube a day even when pregnant .
it changed my stomach acid ph and things i could eat i no longer could after .i also started with skin rashes as while and a dislike for salt .
if i had had internet back then i would have checked them out and would never have taken them .

some people try and be clever and take it neat
this is very dangerous ,can stop you breathing
raw apple cider vinger turns from an acid to an akaline when consummed .always rinse your mouth out after to rinse your teeth
do not brush as any remaing acid you will brush into the enamel

I have stomach ulcers and moderate oesphaghastis But no heartburn. This post scared me, the doctor put me on protonix 40mg for 3 months for my ulcers to heal. I drink one cup of cabbage juice everyday. My stomach pH was 3.5 should be 4.5 I believe. I hope the ppi does not have a serious effect But I read 3 months doesn't really have any side effects. I will try to weane off them toward the end with elm, dgl, mastic gum (maybe won't use this since I don't got h pylori) and cabbage juice. I heard good things about apple vinegar too.

if you have low stomach acid you will have problems with digestion
and reflux .
i am starting of slow , by using a tsp in a small glass of warm water and some raw honey see how i go .
not sure what the recommended daily dose is i think a tbs tablespoon
which is four tsps , you must buy raw apple cider vinger .with the cloudy stuff in it which is called MOTHER its full of enyzems . try it and see is all i can say lots of people swear by it . rinse your mouth with water after as it can damage your teeth . do not take neat because it can take your breath away . some people can but best be careful .

They are a good Liver cleanser. But the reason they may work as far as i can find out is -Though small in size, the gallbladder plays an important role in our digestion of food. The gallbladder holds bile produced in the liver until it is needed for digesting fatty foods in the duodenum of the small intestine.
