Natural Cures For Acid Reflux Disease

Q.I don't want to take physical remedies for the acid reflux diseases as they may leave me some bad results for me later. All I want to do now is to find a natural cure for acid reflux disease. This disease is really getting me down. I can't sleep well or eat whatever I want Another thing is very important is that I wan to treat this disease at home so I would prefer natural cures, not medical ones. So can anyone in the group help me please?

A.I think that you can try this Fumaria Officinalis Uses: "Orally, fumitory is used for GI spasms and as a bile flow stimulant. Historically, fumitory has been used for skin eruptions, eczema, conjunctivitis, cardiovascular disorders, as a diuretic, and a laxative." Safety: possibly safe when used in small amounts ("standard doses"), but possibly UNSAFE in large amounts. One of the compounds contained in the plant is the alkaloid protopine, which can cause convulsions and death in large amounts. Mechanism of action: "The applicable parts of fumitory are the above ground parts. Fumitory can have weak antispasmodic effects on the smooth muscle of the bile duct and upper GI tract. The major alkaloid constituent, protopine, has antihistamine, hypotensive, bradycardic, and sedative activity in small doses, and it causes excitation and convulsions in large doses. Fumitory can exhibit bactericidal activity against gram-positive organisms, including Bacillus anthracis and Staphylococcus." Side effects: adverse reactions are not common in small doses, but large quantities of related plants have caused trembling, convulsions, and death.
