(+) Yeah! (+)

They kill off your ability to absorb nutrients and you will die much faster if you take them

you're poison!

prilosec is probably bad for you. but i take it like the recommended course where you take it for 2 weeks and then don't take it again for 4 months. might start taking it again tomorrow. have pretty bad reflux.

also reflux is bad for you, and can cause like cancer and shit over time. also just makes me miserable.

Well yeah no PPI is recommended for long term use, it's just that doctors and patients all want to prescribe/take it longer cause short term benefits > long term benefits I guess to them.

And to compound the issue, H2 blockers don't seem to work THAT well for a lot of people.

people should give the exact opposite of those ppi's a shot and take HCL with pepsin, you already have both being produced in your stomach that just makes more

fuck ppi's tbh

yeah or just plow through a bottle of ranitidine!

I've only tried one H2 blocker (Famotidine) and it works fine for me.
