My husband takes Rolaids constantly to relieve heartburn. The most common symptom is heartburn , an uncomfortable burning sensation behind the breastbone. Consuming antacids like after-dinner mints is not the solution. As for aloe vera juice, if you've found it works for you, then you should keep using it.
Dosage varies from person to person, so follow the instructions on the product.
Chew two tablets slowly before each meal or between meals, or take one-half teaspoon of the powder before meals. Use DGL as long as you have symptoms. I also suggest visualization as a mind-body technique to help manage symptoms. If you do have an occasional sip, make sure you eat before you drink. Avoid coffee and decaffeinated coffee.
