I hope this is the right place for this topic. I didn't see anywhere better.
About two months ago I was diagnosed with a range of stomach ailments - hiatal hernia, acid reflux, gastritis, some spots that may become ulcers, etc.
Prescription medication has worked kinda sorta okay ... you know how it is. It costs an arm and a leg but it doesn't cure you. Well, that's not the kind of treatment that I am interested in. I would much rather go the natural medicine route.
My dad is quite knowledgeable about medicinal plants. He knows the Jethro Kloss "Back to Eden" book pretty well from cover to cover. He highly recommended Goldenseal and Slippery Elm. There were a few other herbs that were supposed to help, but these were the best. Both can be purchased in capsule form, but I can fairly easily obtain the real thing in the wild. I have some dried Goldenseal ready to powder. The Slippery Elm may have to wait a couple weeks.
Perhaps someone can advise me here. Do any of you have experience with treating "belly troubles" with natural medicine? What worked or didn't work? If you used it, did you find Golden Seal or Slippery Elm to be effective? What, if anything, have you found to be more effective?
I haven't seen a lot of herbology talk on this forum, but I imagine somebody on here has some experience in this field.
