What's "the scoop" on having a slightly alkaline stomach??

OMG! What is David S babbling about? If you have a slight "alkaline" stomach, it means that your acidity is low. Therefore you need to increase the acid and "NOT" use antacids as David has suggested. Antacids (normally chalk tablets) will reduce the acid further and are only used for those that have too much acid. Reducing your stomach acids further will agitate you. It may even encourage your liver to produce more bile. The best solution is to consult your doctor to get the correct medication / treatment. In the meantime, try eating more citrus fruit as this will help a bit. Citric Acid is not as strong but it should help. See your doctor and get it sorted and keep away from those so called Nutritionists, Herbalists, alternative medicine freaks, many of them will cause more harm than good.
