Hi Pat, yeah acid reflux is a diffrenet problem. that happens when the little valve at the bottom of the esaphagus that closes off the stomach get stuck in the open position then acid come up and burns the esophagus which is not made to withstad acid from stomach. some aloe vera preperations help with taht but i heard there was a way to reset the valve so it closes and opens properly again but i dont know the proceduer. it is somethnig you can do yourself.
