RefluxRaft Acid Reflux Therapy with Organic Alginate, Rapid & Long Lasting Gerd, LPR & Digestion Symptom Support, Zero Sugar, Gluten Free, Low Sodium, Lemon Ginger Flavor, 47 Gel Servings, 8 OZ Bottle

I've gone through my first bottle and I will be ordering again. I only take it at night before bed. It does seem to help my acid reflux. It's way too expensive, and I hate that part, but until I find a comparable product, I'll keep taking this. I tried the RefluxGourmet and it's WAY too sweet and sodium tasting at the same time. It contains sugar and I don't like that, plus it doesn't taste good. Reflux raft tastes GREAT! I always want to take more than the dosage amount, but I don't because it's so stinkin' expensive!

This product has reduced my reflux symptoms of burning in the throat when taken before bedtime. It was easy to use. and the lemon ginger flavor was tasty. A heads up...the color and consistency of yellow-green slightly resembles coughed up or secretions from blowing your nose with a sinus infection. (I am very sensitive to this) but I simply focused on the good it was going to do instead of looking at it. I would imagine it is necessary to act as a coating to the damaged esophagus and/or to protect it and help it heal. The benefit definitely outweighs the appearance and coats the throat and reduces or eliminates burning. I will ne purchasing this product again.

This is one of the nastiest things I've ever tasted, hands down. It literally tastes like vomit. I have no idea how anyone could come up with this, taste it, and decide it would be a good idea to release it as a final product. I understand that taste is subjective but my goodness, this is horrific.

94 year old mom uses it to alleviate GERD symptoms. Her coughing after meals has significantly reduced. She likes the lemon ginger taste.

This product works. I developed LPR and couldn't sleep due to waking up multiple times during the night choking and gasping for air. I tried this product on a whim because none of the medications helped. Now I can sleep! It's wonderful. I've been taking it before bed for about a week now, and I have slept through the night every single night. I'm starting to lose the fear of laying down to sleep. If you're suffering from nighttime silent reflux, you need to at least give this a try. (There's also a couple of other things you can do. Buy a wedge pillow to prop yourself up more at night and don't eat several hours before bed.) The reviews claim all kinds of weird things about the flavor, but I don't know what they're talking about. I like ginger. Thank you RefluxRaft!

I have been a sufferer of Silent Acid Reflux for nearly 20 years. I have suffered with hoarseness, laryngitis, and CHRONIC throat clearing that frustrated me as well as anyone in my presence. My throat constantly felt like I had a lump in it, and I was convinced I had throat cancer. No medications or procedures ever gave me complete relief. I have been taking PPI's along with Pepcid for decades. In 2010, I had the Nissen fundoplication procedure, which was supposed to 'fix' my issues. It didn't. The weird part is, I always had trouble accepting the acid reflux diagnosis simply because I NEVER had the burning reflux after eating the way normal sufferers experience with reflux. About 6 months ago, I went onto Cleveland Clinic's website. Great place for information, BTW. I read up on what they had to say about Silent Reflux. They did such a good job explaining. This is the explanation off of their website: Laryngopharyngeal reflux is a lesser-known form of acid reflux in which stomach acid travels ALL THE WAY INTO YOUR THROAT, causing symptoms there. LPR can be the underlying cause of hoarseness, laryngitis, chronic throat clearing and related symptoms. You might not have typical acid reflux symptoms, like heartburn or indigestion. "Laryngopharyngeal (“la-Ring-go-fa-Rin-jee-al”) reflux, or LPR, is a special type of acid reflux. Acid reflux occurs when stomach juices (including acid) rise from your stomach into your esophagus (swallowing tube). Symptoms of acid reflux usually affect your lower esophagus, within your chest. But if you have LPR, the reflux has a habit of creeping higher up, into your larynx (voice box) and pharynx (throat). LPR is also called “extraesophageal” reflux, because the reflux passes beyond your esophagus. This causes different symptoms from typical acid reflux — so different that you might not realize it’s a type of reflux at all. Instead of causing heartburn and indigestion, LPR tends to irritate your voice, throat and sinuses. Because you can have LPR without other reflux symptoms, it’s sometimes called “silent reflux.” It was also on their website that I learned about alginate therapy. Reflux Raft was my second trial choice of alginate therapy. I didn't have good results with another brand I had tried. Like other people have suggested, the taste and the texture leave something to be desired; however, after trying to find relief for almost 20 years, quite frankly I didn't care what it tasted like. I wanted relief. I wanted to be able to sit in a room quietly without clearing my throat every 15 seconds. I just wanted to feel normal again. I bought one bottle to give it a try. At first, the ginger and lemon seemed to irritate my already irritated throat, which I had anticipated. But knowing the healing properties associated with those ingredients, I decided I was going to power through one full bottle and see what happens. Gradually I started feeling relief. Little by little, my throat started to heal. Before I had finished the bottle, I had completely quit clearing my throat. My husband was elated. I was elated. I could cry from thankfulness having found something that has brought me this relief. I have used one bottle a week ever since. Having this suffering come to an end is such a blessing. I am deeply grateful. I hope others can benefit from this post.

I gave this a try, and like mentioned in some other reviews, the ginger seemed to burn my inflamed esophagus on the way down and left me with heartburn. I only took it once, so I can’t speak to its efficacy. Since my LPR symptoms have subsided with lifestyle changes regarding eating, sleeping, and what I drink, I’ve decided not to pursue this product further. If there is any advice I can give, I would suggest going for the berry flavor from the outset.

The product has a gel like consistency. Easy to take- you only need a spoon- and if you like the taste, you don’t even need water to help with swallowing. It helps my acid reflux and tastes good. It’s a great complement to my prescribed Famotadine.
