Weight and GERD
Hello Dear Doctors,I have been overweight throughout my life and I am 36 now.
Back in 2013, Dr Joe really helped me because I weighed 130 kg at the time and was suffering from GERD and taking Nat Phos and Arnica really helped me but also at the same time helped me lose weight while curing my GERD. At the time I had started weighing 105 kg by the time I stopped Nat Phos.
Fast forward 11 years, a lot of bad lifestyle choices, family circumstances and life circumstances and here I am weighing 134 kg again. I have been suffering again from GERD for the last couple of years so much so that I started getting frequent mouth ulcers in my mouth probably because the refluxed acid has made my mouth lining very sensitive.
Looking for advise here to see if I should again take Nat Phos 6x and Arnica 30c or should I take something else to help me with this severe GERD and also looking for suggestions for weight loss remedy if possible.
Symptoms and my body are as per below.
Most weight is around the abdomen area and then have weight around my thighs and hips.
Due to , have a lot of nasal discharge from time to time. If I eat a little late at night, will have acid reflux and can cause sore throat. Took PPI for some time and it helped supress symptoms of but of course couldnt make it go away. Feeling very depressed at the moment due to it consistently affecting me, my work, my time with my yound kids. I really want some help so that I can get some motivation up and start doing some exercise because at the moment if I do some exercise of even yoga for weight loss, it causes gerd symptoms so I really need GERD to be a bit under control for me to be able to exercise as well.
Regards,
Urs

Hi,
This is about your diet. Our body cells have to be alkaline ph or else you will have GERD. Over time of choosing too much acidic food will cause this. Meat, dairy, chocolate, etc are all acid forming. Google alkaline Forming foods and change the diet for two weeks.Your cells will return to alkaline ph.
No homeopathic remedies will cure if the diet is bad.
I’ve had gerd, family has had gerd, and it can start from just adding in one thing, like chocolate everyday that tips the balance. Once you get ph right you can add in acidic foods but you will know you did too much if gerd appears-then cut back.

Thanks Simone,
I havent had non vegetarian food since 2018 and I dont eat chocolate. The only thing that I have in my diet out of those foods id dairy in the form of cheese, paneer or milk (that too in a single cup of coffee) i have in the day. I have already altered the diet but because I have this condition, I am losing motivation to go out for a walk or do any strength training exercises as it keeps impacting me in every way. Hence why I think it is timely for me to seek some remedies to help with this.

I posted bc a lot of ppl have no idea what they eat can cause GERD.
Here in USA, tons of tv ads showing ppl eating fast food, saying just take ppi’s and you can eat whatever you want. By all means try the remedies and just fyi dairy is a big trigger for acid reflux-I’m veg, big fan of cheese, not having reflux symptoms, but told my urine ph was acidic at last dr visit -so I’m going to cut that way back.

HOW TO TAKE THE REMEDY:
Please take Three doses. Just three doses and not daily.
WHAT IS A DOSE:
Get the remedy in liquid:
Put five drop of the remedy in 15 ml of mineral water, hit the bottle atleast 10 times (shaking the bottle is not enough) and keep it for 5 minutes. Finish this in 3 doses
TIME OF DOSE:
First dose: early in morning before brushing your tooth, just rinse and use it.
Second dose: after 12 hours.
Third dose: 1fter 12 hours.
PRECAUTIONS:
If there is significant worsening of symptoms (called homeopathic aggravation) after the first dose, then don’t take the second dose.
Don’t take any other homeopathic remedy during this treatment.
During the treatment, don’t eat anything which you have never had all your life.
HOMEOPATHIC AGGRAVATION
Sometimes the symptoms for which treatment is being done can worsen after taking the homeopathic remedy. This is homeopathic aggravation and a good sign. It usually dies down within 24-48 hrs. During this time you can use any non-medicinal means to keep yourself comfortable. If the aggravation seems excessive, you can use any & all means necessary (including taking allopathic medicines) to keep yourself comfortable. Keep your homeopath fully updated if this happens.
HOW TO GIVE FEEDBACK:
A good example of how to report your progress is by giving %age improvement or worsening for all your health problems e.g.
Emotions: e.g. Feeling of happiness improved 40%
Energy level: e.g. Feeling of tiredness reduced 70%
Main health problem: e.g. Nasal discharge reduced 50%
Other health problems: e.g. acne>Acne increased 60%
Anything new: Depression: e.g. Loose stool started
And so on list all your complaints.
HOW TO KNOW IF YOU ARE GETTING CURED:
Any cure in homeopathic treatment will always follow this rule (Hering’s Law of Cure) otherwise it’s not cure, just palliation. The cure must proceed from centre to circumference. From centre to circumference is from above downward, from within outwards, from more important to less important organs, from the head to the hands and feet.
GENERAL INFO ABOUT HOMEOPATHIC PRESCRIBING:
If someone is giving several remedies, without waiting to see the effect of one remedy, then it is totally against the core principles of homeopathy. Such an approach is unlikely to give permanent cure, rather it may distort actual symptoms making subsequent cure even more difficult.
Dont drink water along with the medicine. Dont drink or eat any thing for 30 minutes before the medicine and after the medicine.
Note: Avoid Strong smell, Coffee, Raw Garlic, Raw Onion, Hing and Tobacco in any form.
Report back with the changes observed after using this remedy.
