Hi, I would be very careful ad avoid anything with anything with cellulose because wood is sprayed with Peg to keep it moist. I a also unsure about glycolate. It might be a problem. The other ingredients I think are fine to use. Good luck!

I recall looking up sodium starch glycolate. It *sounds* suspish but as best I can tell it is really just potato starch in some form. I have not reacted to it in my estrogen pills, and I am super reactive to all glycols, so I believe that one is all right.

While not great ingredients (magnesium stearate, cellulose), I don't think you'll get a PG/PEG reaction. IMO the better course of action is to get to the root cause of acid reflux. I no longer have an issue after going through the Dr. Joshua Axe "Healing Leaky Gut" diet and following the recommendations of Dr. Chris Kresser. Both are naturopathic doctors. Dr. Chris Kresser will send you a free e-book at this site. chriskresser.com/what-every... Best wishes.

Hypromellose is a combination of wood cellulose and propylene glycol. Stay away from that mess! Hydroxypropyl cellulose I *think* is okay but exercise caution.
