Refluxter Sodium Alginate Capsules – Natural Acid Reflux & GERD Relief Supplement. Supports LPR, Silent Reflux, Heartburn, Indigestion. Alginate Therapy. Alginato de Sodio. Made in USA

I recently purchased Refluxter Sodium Alginate Capsules to help manage my occasional acid reflux/GERD symptoms. Since I've only been taking them for about a day, this is my initial impression, but I wanted to share my positive experience so far. Quick Highlights * Capsule Form: I specifically wanted a sodium alginate product in a capsule form rather than a liquid, and these are perfect. They are easy to swallow, and I haven't had any unpleasant taste issues. * Early Effectiveness: Even after just a day of use, I have noticed a very encouraging difference. I took a capsule after a trigger meal and later before bed, and I felt a noticeable sense of relief and calm in my stomach compared to when I don't use anything. * Natural/No Sugar: I appreciate that this product is a natural supplement and does not contain the artificial ingredients or sugars found in some other over-the-counter options. Detailed Thoughts I'm very hopeful about this product. The mechanism of sodium alginate, which is supposed to form a protective barrier (a "raft") over the stomach contents to prevent reflux, seems to be working quickly for me. The capsules feel high-quality, and I had no adverse side effects like bloating or discomfort. If you're looking for an alternative to traditional antacids or PPIs, or just need a new approach to managing your reflux, Refluxter is definitely worth a try. I will update my review after I've used the whole bottle, but for now, I am very satisfied with this initial, quick relief!

I heard about alginate and I wanted to try it, one of the things that I liked is that the capsule is a normal size and easy to swallow. I don’t like big capsules and I think it’s helping with my acid reflux. But I have to take it a little longer and update my review. But so far I have 0 side effects and it seems to be working.

I’ve been looking for a more natural way to manage my LPR and nighttime reflux without relying on heavy medications, and Refluxter has been a great find. What I Liked: Effective "Raft" Technology: You can really feel the alginate working. Taking it after a meal or before bed creates a noticeable barrier that prevents that "burning throat" feeling in the morning. Clean Ingredients: I love that it’s sugar-free and doesn't contain artificial sweeteners or aluminum. It feels much safer for long-term use than some of the drugstore alternatives. No Mess: Compared to liquid alginates or gels, these capsules are so much more convenient for travel or keeping on a nightstand. A Couple of Notes: Capsule Size: As some other reviewers mentioned, the capsules are on the larger side. If you have trouble swallowing pills, you’ll definitely need a full glass of water. Timing is Key: You have to be disciplined about taking it after you’re completely done eating for the night. If you snack afterward, it breaks the "raft" and doesn't work nearly as well. Overall, it’s a high-quality supplement that does exactly what it claims to do. I’m knocking off one star just because the price point is a bit high for a 30-day supply (if taking 2 daily), but the relief is worth it for me.

So I just started using these I think it's been 4 nights so far and I can say these are working very well!!! I previously was using gaviscon advance for a decade but randomly looked into the ingredients which scared me away due to the bad preservatives and saccharin artificial sweetener. so here I am trying this stuff! The magic ingredient in this stuff is the sodium alginate which forms a *raft* / *barrier* at the top of your stomach so your stomach acid contents don't slosch up into your esophagus. When you use this stuff you do NOT want to eat anything after otherwise it will most likely break up the raft/barrier it temporarily forms. Drinking water is fine to get the capsules down of course. So whatever your gonna eat, do that before you take this stuff otherwise it may not work well. Not a product defect just the nature of using a sodium alginate product. Serving size Comparison of what you get in terms of alginate (more the better the raft) •Refluxter(this stuff): Over 1000mg+ of alginate (as their website states) Also listed as their first ingredient which by law means that's the ingredient that makes up most of this product. •Reflux Gourmet tube: 425mg of their proprietary blend with alginate being listed as their second ingredient which means they are using probably around less than 200mg of alginate. •Gaviscon Advance: 1000mg sodium alginate. •Reflux raft: 245mg of their proprietary blend with alginate being listed as their second ingredients which means they are using probably around less than 120mg of alginate. The most cost effective seems to be this refluxter supplement. Don't bother with reflux gourmet or reflux raft as for the cost of it for the extremely small quantity is a total rip off. Gaviscon advance would be the next one below this imo but it does leave me waking up with a raw/burning mouth/throat which I believe is due to its other ingredients. I will continue using Refluxter as its the best I've came across. The ingredients are natural and clean unlike the others. This is why they have a prop65 warning (California law) there is naturally occuring small amounts of lead just like any other food which will have naturally occuring stuff. This stuff has less naturally occuring lead than rice for example. ANY sodium alginate will contain lead wether they state it or not. Unless it's some synthetic alginate which obviously is not good. The taste is fine I mean it's just a capsule that you swallow so it doesn't taste like anything, no burp flavors or odors, seems to work quick! I use to wake up with a burning warm throat from reflux and so far have not encountered that while using this. I will update my review if anything changes.

Works great. Calls for 2 capsules, but I only ever take 1 and it works for me. Capsules are on the larger size, but as long as it works I don’t mind.

I first had a great experience with this supplement and slept thru the night and for 8 full hours - a miracle compared to my normal! But after a few weeks, I experienced a night of the most awful abdominal pain and dry heaves. It wa so bad that I seriously considered going to the ER. I have since read that what I described above is a side effect, especially of the capsule form of sodium alginate. Ugh. Avoid!
