I found a cure for my acid reflux. Has anyone else done the same?

I was on acid reflux medication for ten years. I could not sleep at night without the purple pill or Zantac. After being diagnosed with a kidney disorder that developed from a long term regimen of low dose medication, (aspirin and reflux medicine), I decided to search for the root of the problem that causes acid reflux. The Nexium pills and other types treat the symptoms of bad health, they are not the cure. If the body is not functioning correctly, there is an underlying cause that needs to be addressed. My doctor said that most people would rather keep eating what ever they want and take pills the rest of their lives than to change their diets which is the best way to eliminate the problem of acid reflux. So after researching a little I found that a diet of more raw fruits and vegetables and no fried foods with transfats etc will help my situation, but the most important thing that I found was that a major cause is caffeine. Caffeine causes certain muscles in the esophagus to relax which not only allows stomach acid to rise up into areas it should not be in but is also cases the stomach to produce more acid. As soon as I Stopped all caffeine and made moderate changes to my diet, within 3 days I was off of acid reflux medication completely and that was 3 months ago and I haven't had caffeine or needed medication since. Some doctors will not tell you these things and will prefer to keep you on medication which is how they are trained to treat problems. I am happy to say that I am healed from a bad case of acid reflux that lasted for many years thanks to a few basic changes and I believe you can be healed as well. Best wishes.
