healing reflux with TF?

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 

Has anyone here done this? I had heard some of you TF'ers think reflux is due to too little acid rather than too much. DD is 11 mo and as been  on zantac for a few months after we tried everything under the sun to help her reflux. She wakes constantly to nurse, I can HEAR stuff coming up and the zantac is no longer working. We've been doing bone broths, probiotics, and good fats like goat butter, egg yolks etc (we strongly suspect dairy, even raw, even the goat). She doesn't handle kefir water or ferments well so I've been taking them while I am nursing. We are ready to wean her off zantac (not working anyway) and try to really heal the issue. Has anyone done this?

 

She also recently showed signs of tooth decay on her front bottom teeth. she eats no sugar and hardly even any grains...me either. ANY help, advice, stories or ideas are welcome. This isn't something you find much info on!

Have you done an elimination diet to pinpoint any intolerances?

Not TF per se, but my reflux disappears when I remove grains and sugar. Particularly wheat.

Yes, and it helped somewhat. We removed wheat, all gluten, oats, sugar, dairy, corn, soy, peanuts, citrus and most spices for several months. Right now we have a small amount of gluten here and there and some goat dairy. Being militant without know what the issue was was driving me nuts. I may elimanted stuff further butI'd really like to eal ehr gut. She ahd very strong antibiotics as a baby and has only tolerated and probiotics recently
