Please help me to have connection to this body to understand and make a change.<\/em><br \/>\nSo \u2026 this short blog today is just to document the natural remedies that I have found helpful in the past. The last week has had several \u201cOh yeah!\u201d as I recall methods I used last year to manage the acid reflux.<br \/>\nThe first thing I did was go back to taking the licorice root supplement every morning. This helps to improve the stomach lining mucus.<br \/>\nI have candied ginger to chew on after eating. It is a sweet treat and helps with the acid.<br \/>\nI take digestive enzymes when I eat something I know I have issues with like grains or dairy.<br \/>\nA couple of days into suffering with the reflux I remembered that last year I was carrying fennel seeds in my purse to help with digestion. I took some and immediately got some relief. This is an important remedy not to forget.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-1781 size-medium aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/triciabatessmith.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Small-Fennel-Seeds-Big-Health-Benefits-300x225.jpg?resize=300%2C225\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/triciabatessmith.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Small-Fennel-Seeds-Big-Health-Benefits.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/triciabatessmith.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Small-Fennel-Seeds-Big-Health-Benefits.jpg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/triciabatessmith.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Small-Fennel-Seeds-Big-Health-Benefits.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/triciabatessmith.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Small-Fennel-Seeds-Big-Health-Benefits.jpg?resize=400%2C300&amp;ssl=1 400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/triciabatessmith.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Small-Fennel-Seeds-Big-Health-Benefits.jpg?w=1600&amp;ssl=1 1600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/triciabatessmith.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Small-Fennel-Seeds-Big-Health-Benefits.jpg?w=1168&amp;ssl=1 1168w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><br \/>\nThis morning I was reading a blog on fermented foods and she wrote about Kefir being a great remedy for acid reflux \u2013 another one I had forgotten about so I will be adding that back into my morning routine.<br \/>\nBelow is a prayer that I have over my desk that I evoked during a difficult time a few years back.
