Will give it a try, but equally, if you believe something works, then it proly will..

Whilst your at it, perhaps you could try this cure too ? alternate to lemon juice therapy

Is it washing your hands in, gets rid of whatever is in the blocks? cos I know they wreak havoc with the skin.

I know Urea cream is excellent for the bottoms of your tootsies, also eczema/psoriasis - as is drinking your own pee (providing it's fresh and you haven't got a UTI of course) and stuff like that.

Not so strange Brian

Very strange, drink acid to cure acid indigestion.

According to nutritionist Patrick Holford much indigestion is caused by not having enough stomach acid to break down food effectively. especially in older people...

As far as using urine for medical purposes, it's well known in Greece to reduce the pain of jellyfish stings!

Hi Chris,
My wife suffers terribly from acid indigestion. What proportions do you mix lemon juice with water? 50-50?
Many thanks for your advice.

This is correct lemon juice diluted is definitely helpful. I have alot of issues with certain foods so have to be very wary of what I eat and can suffer with terrible indigestion. This will aid in calming your system down.

Also as you get older your digestive system reduces in effectiveness by around 40% thats probably why you find things that you could eat and drink at one time don't quite agree with you now.

Omperazole is one of the most common used medicines in the UK. Designed for dealing with Acid reflux.
Of course Lemmon juice mints and many other foods can help resolve the problem. But, Also, it is extremely important to keep an eye on things.
Acid reflux or heartburn can be associated with many many other problems. Gallstones, stomach ulcers and even pancreatic cancer to name a few.
So before jumping for that slice of lemon to cure the result, it may be worthwhile to explore the cause and keep your Dr involved.

I used to have real bad acid reflux, Dr put me on Omeprazole, I stopped smoking, lost weight and rarely am I bothered by it any more. :thumb:
