PSYLLIUM HUSK

[Cmnc]

Hi has anyone being advised on taking psyllium Husk, I take one capsule daily to help with stomach issues,just trying to get things under control having gone from zero meds to many meds overnight.I find it helpful with acid reflux.

I have reflux disease, probably a small hiatus hernia, and take several meds for a variety of stuff. I take a PPI and don't suffer with discomfort with acid reflux, also helped by knowing what my trigger foods are. If you suffer from reflux do I suggest you discuss it with your GP, who may prescribe a PPI like me. Long term acid reflux is a serious condition and can damage the oesophagus wall with the potential for cells to change.

Working out what your trigger foods are can be difficult and time-consuming, but absolutely necessary, as you say. I totally agree about discussing acid reflux with a GP, it's definitely something to take seriously.
