Bile Reflux Gastritis

I have been sick with Bile Reflux Gastritis. I have done a lot of research on this disease. My doctors put me on Sucralfate 1gm. It made my heart race. I searched for many days to help my self and other sufferers. I came across an article in Helium by Frank Will on Bile Relux Gastritis. It talks about natural cures and four herbs to take. I do have a boyfriend who is knowledgeable with some herbs. I tried the herbs in the article. Camomile tea, slippery elm, licorice root, and marshmallow root. I made a tea using them all. This is the first time I had relief.My stomach is so much better. I sip it all day long. Not warm but cooled off. I know that the licorice root you use sparingly because it can raise blood pressure. I want to tell other Bile Reflux Gastritis about these herbs. Please let them know about these remedies that have been around for hundreds of years. My question is what else can I do to produce less bile. I know I must do lowfat diet and digestive enzymes. Not sure which ones to buy. I am finally eating bananas, salmon, boiled potatoes, smoothies with Hemp pro50, I do not have my Gallbladder. I am dairy free, gluten free, no junk food, drink water and my tea. Can I use olive oil and butter only sparingly. Any suggestions would be great.Thank you Loony56

i had a similar condition. i went to an avurvedic doctor and he recommended tripala. it's made of 3 indian fruits. it helps a lot. taking 1 tablet morning and night after meals. no side effects. apparently it has many positive 'side effects' (like lowering cholesterol). that an DGL tablets help. it can be taken over long term without raising blood pressure levels.

Hi, I've been reading your comments with great interest having had my gallbladder out 10 years ago and having suffered with acid and bile since then and just had a really bad bout of gastritis and waking up every morning feeling full of bile and feeling nauseous and having diarrhoea.  I am definitely going to try your teas and diet.  Thank you so much.  Nicky

I bet there are hundreds of people the doctors do not tell their patients about gallbladder removal.They want their paychecks! I was told in 1998 I would only suffer gas.When you eat to much food the bile has no where to go. I tried to tell DR OZ about this disease but no answer. Let me tell you its ben horrible trying to figure out whats wrong with me for over 15 years. Please try the tea. It's an ancient recipe. If you cannot find the tea i can send some. I have a new company called Do Botanicals that is coming out around March 3 with some of my herbal remedies.Hopefully.You must try some Digestive enxymes. I use Absorb aid digestive support. It a powder and you mix it in your food. No fatty, spicy, dairy, meat, legumes, and no gluten free diet. These are the hard to digest foods. Eat fish, bananas, avocado, apples, salad, steamed vegetables, and no junk foods. Do the DGL for heartburn. Drink the tea. Dairy is one of the worst foods, and chicken causes bladder infections in women. Go to nutritional facts.org and look at Michael Gregers videos. I have studied for years and writing a book about my illness. If I can help one person, which I have, it was worth it to me. Please be patient and try to let your body heal. This is a life time change which is mostly plant based diet with fish for me. I do well. I do very few condiments and no acidic foods. I do organic foods only. Try this for a while. Let me know. Stock up on vitamin D3. Go to DR Khala Soram about vitamin D3. Study and educate yourself about how food is contaminated with chemicals. Look at our society and see how sick people are. I am finally getting better and lost 40 lbs, Hope you feel better. If you need help i am here. I know when I was sick it was hell not knowing what to do! Loony56

Omg how many people suffer from the awful condition. Had my gall bladder removed 19dec 2013 told at my pre opp that the only side effects of this procedure could be loose stools if only. Been ill for weeks back and forward to docs been treated for acid reflux but drugs not working paid to go and see consultant told me I have a problem with bile but on reading about it on the web have been shocked that it's a life condition. I am a prisoner in my own home in constant pain. Iam going to try this tea you recommend will let you know how I get on thanks for all your posts please keep this up nice for some one out there to offer support.

They never give a diet restrictions after gall bladder surgery. Please cut down on the rich food. Eat very lean! Food log is excellent, the bile has no where to go. I am on a super strict diet but this is how everyone should be eating in the first place. If any one needs to skype me please do so.  loonyfleming1
