Medicine may not be a remedy for heartburn

NewsGuard 100/100 Score

ABC News on December 27th, 2011 with Diane Sawyer featured "Reports of Acid Reflux Symptoms Double" and the epidemic in heartburn issues amongst the United States population, attributing the eating habits of the Baby Boomer generation as the primary cause.

Those suffering from such afflictions are now seeking less risky sources of relief, specifically medicines or treatments that do not bear potential dangerous side effects.

Within just the past three years, consumers have been faced with multiple FDA warnings regarding use, beyond recommended dosage periods, of popular OTC drugs that treat heartburn.

But the perfect remedy might not be a "medicine" at all. In fact, thousands are now finding relief in Nutralize, a breakthrough, patent-pending formula that is made from all-natural ingredients and taps the power of Medical Grade Manuka Honey to great effect in its ManukaGuard® Nutralize heartburn product. 

CREDIBILITY of the medicinal benefit of Manuka Honey: April 13, 2011, Professor Rose Cooper from the University of Wales Institute, Cardiff (UWIC) said, "Manuka honey could be an efficient way to clear chronically infected wounds and could even help reverse bacterial resistance to antibiotics," according to research presented at the Society for General Microbiology's Spring Conference in Harrogate.
