Acid Redux - Natural Stomach Acid Neutralizer Promotes relief from occasional acid indigestion Mint-flavored lozenges contain no artificial flavors or colors With millions of Americans suffering from excess stomach acid, the need for a powerful and effective acid reducer has never been more widespread. NOW Acid Redux? formulated by Scientific Food Solutions, has taken antacids to an entirely new level of protection. This powerful blend of magnesium/potassium hydroxide in combination with vitamins and minerals including ultra low-lead calcium carbonate can be highly effective in reducing stomach acid, while raising our pH levels and soothing sore tissues three essential elements in maintaining optimal acid levels in our stomach and throughout our body.* Acid Redux FQA: What is GERD? Hydrochloric acid is secreted due to chemical signals in the gastric parietal cells in the stomach. This digestive acid secretion is one of the links in the chain of events necessary for proper digestion of food. There are those who overproduce these acids and suffer occasional heartburn when they consume certain acid producing foods and beverages. There many people today that suffer with a more serious condition called GERD (Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease). GERD is a syndrome caused by a dysfunctional lower esophageal sphincter that permits an upward flow of gastric hydrochloric acid into the esophagus. This abnormal upward flow of gastric acid causes burning and continual erosion of the esophageal tissue. How does Acid Redux?work in the stomach to provide relief? Acid Redux?has a soothing influence on the smooth muscle, esophageal mucosa and blood vessels of the gastrointestinal system (GI) by buffering the hydrochloric acid secretions that cause the irritation experienced by those with GERD or acid reflux. The acid neutralizing composition of Acid Redux?includes the rapid acting alkaline minerals potassium and magnesium hydroxide as well as the longer lasting alkaline mineral calcium carbonate. These alkaline minerals are effective in reducing stomach acidity. This product is equally helpful to reduce the acidity of orange and tomato juice as well as caffeinated beverages like coffee and tea. Is Acid Redux?as effective in buffering hydrochloric acid as some other over the counter products? Laboratory testing comparing Acid Redux?to 4 other major over the counter brands of antacids has shown that Acid Redux?is faster acting in its ability to neutralize a hydrochloric acid solution of pH 2.20 from time zero to one minute after consumption. Its stronger base nature initiates the buffering effect on the H+ ions (positive hydrogen) allowing the neutralizing effect to react quickly and over a longer period of time for extended relief. Is Acid Redux?like the prescription proton pump inhibitors that stops the secretion of gastric acid in the stomach? No, Acid Redux?is not a proton or gastric acid pump inhibitor and has no influence on gastric acid secretion via the inhibition of gastrin (control hormone) production.
