I was hoping that my heartburn would go away after I quit drinking a couple of years ago, but instead, it got worse. Honestly, that it's probably because I started to form an actual diet and my stomach didn't know what the fuck to do.

Sigh. I am hoping this current mega-cycle of proton-pump inhibitors helps. It's been a fairly high dose for about quadruple the normal length of time, so it might actually stick this time.

You can actually find small bottles of water on Amazon marketed as a miracle cure.

Yeah. The peddlers of homeopathic crap are the first ones that need to burn.

Kale has a naturally high pH, so it's basically just an antacid. If it works consistently for you, keep it up. No point in taking industrial strength meds for something simple, after all.

The class of drugs for my kind of heartburn are proton-pump inhibitors and help limit acid production across the board. It's good these are over the counter now as I am on a 2x dose, but have been as high as 4x before.

I switched from standard antacids to just water and baking soda my stomach was so bad. Kale wouldn't have put a dent in my stomach acid, TBH. I drink a ton of water these days, and even if the pH of the water was off by a hair, it would be a bad time.

I probably might be able to cut my dosage back or even stop soon hopefully. It's one of the few drugs that are actually supposed to provide a long term solution.

Oh, what would we do without Lumerical Multiphysics? (The solution for all of your photonic component needs.)

Espresso pressed so hard it's squeezed out of the third dimension?

It's OPs thing. He just got lazy this time it seems and scrubbed the soft Chinese propaganda title this time.

The way I see it, that is basically the same as a twist and tuck.

You put the bread in a bottle and you can just put the cap on it to keep it fresh. You can just pour it into your toaster after that!

That's why we have Roseanne. (A perfectly decent replacement, IMHO.)

It doesn't. (Connect for Lemmy is still a great app though.)
