Guest guest Posted May 30, 2004 Report Share Posted May 30, 2004 Hello: I am new to this site. I wrote to the group last week for some answers to my husband's stomach acid. No one answered my questions, so I thought I would try again. He has stomach cancer and had a large tumor removed in Feb. He only has a small stomach left. He is on the Budwig diet and is doing very well. However he suffers from too much stomach acid. I was wondering if there is anything I can give him to help with the stomach acid? I sure would appreciate any help. Thank-you. Flo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 30, 2004 Report Share Posted May 30, 2004 Flo-- Here is what helped me with stomach acid: Do not drink liquids with meals or snacks or for an hour after. Also avoid drinking liquids for a half hour before meals or snacks. I read the suggestion years ago in a natural health newsletter, and I have found it works very well. It takes up to three days for me to see results with this, but it's worth it. The reasoning in the newsletter was that liquid dilutes stomach acid and makes it harder for the stomach to digest food. The acid is there in your stomach to digest the food. If the stomach has trouble digesting, it produces more acid. Some of this is counterintuitive, but it really works. I wish your husband a healthy recovery. Catherine , " flo_webber " <flo- webber@s...> wrote: > Hello: > I am new to this site.
