Who has used it and what were your thoughts?
How long did it take to work, as I have had Malik on it for 2 days now and havn't noticed an improvement.
Also I am finding it very difficult to get 15ml of the diluted mixture down, we are using an eye dropper (1ml at a time).....
Should I try something else instead? He only suffers the pain in the afternoon/evenings I think so should I drop the morning dose?

Hi,
Why dont you try a natural product called herbal aloe it is very very good for reflux. It stopped my auntys baby from having it.
You just add some into water and give bub a bottle:thumbsup: ....
If i had a reflux problem i would def give it a go, as i would prefer to use a natural product first.
I can give you the ladys number for more info :thumbsup:
I wouldnt tell you about it if i didnt think it wasnt going to fix the problem :hugs:

Hi can i ask how this actualy stops reflux, and also what type of reflux does it stop, the reasopn i ask is ther are lots of contributing factors with reflux, so im curios what this does does it speed the astric emptying, does it nutralise the acid does it hualt the acid production etc, im not argueing with you in any was im just curious, my dd has got servere reflux she has had surgery to corect it and is tube fed, we have tried all aproved meds on the market (not the one you sugest as our Pead said no) and im just curiuos to know how will it help fix it kwim
Reflux is a terible disease i know kids allover the world that suffer badly from it, the thought that one dose of this stuff can fix them seems great but also laughable at the same time kwim, i have heard this of so many hearbal medicines and so far they have all been usless KWIM
So how good it, and what does it do:)

Hey :wave:
I went to my source with your questions and this is what she sent back to me. If you want more info then you can contact her by email cherylbarlow@three.com.au
Firstly the information that i go on is based on people's testimonials that have tried the product, im certainly not telling anyone they must use it im simply giving out another option that is 100% natural.
The product that i'm referring to has chamomile in it so it is very good for soothing the digestive system and assists the natural self cleansing of the body.
Leading scientists and nutritionalists make up the Scientific Advisory Board ensuring that these products meet and exceed the highest standard possible.
These products are governed by the labelling law and the mega dose law of Australia so they are completely safe.
Not only are these products the best product available, they come from the world's number 1 leading nutritional company, that is in 65 countries around the world with over 40 million customers.
i don't know about you but for me, i certainly want the best for my kids. How many products come with the backing these come with (millions of testimonials)? and not only that, they come with a thirty day money back guarantee.
Look, i use all the products myself and i love them. I have 5 kids and before i started i was always so tired. I felt like i need a nap daily and was totally stressed out. I started on some products and within 3 days my energy levels went through the roof. I know how much these products have changed my life and so many other peoples lives around me.
Each to their own but i know what products i'll be using for my kids.
thanks for the explanation, imnot sure what you mean by each t ther own but i want the best for my kids, we all want that, some of us have no choice than to go for full medical intervention, we have tried chamomile for my DD she reacted to it, I know for my self and at least oneother mum on here, our childrens reflux is not the run of the mill reflux we are talking life threatning reflux, tube feeding, motility disorder, with metobolic disorders that needed surgical intervention to improve the reflux even that isnt a cure KWIM

What is the brand name so we can google it???
We all want the best for our kids which is why I am very sceptical about claims that cannot be backed up by reputable labs.Natural products are not required in this country to be made in labs, I had a great deal of difficulty finding lab grade mannose, i had to sign a waiver saying i accepted risks for a product that the children's hospital could not guarantee safe, as it was not lab grade,
My DD's reflux was so severe (prior to surgery) THAT SHE COULDN'T EVEN TAKE 2 MLS OF MILK INTO HER STOMACH, INSTEAD THEY HAD TO PUT A TUBE DOWN PAST HER STOMACH AND FEED THE MILK DIRECTLY INTO HER SMALL BOWEL. nOW THIS PRODUCT MAY HELP A SMALL MINORITY OF MILDLY AFFECTED REFLUX CHILDREN BUT MAKING CLAIMS THAT IT WILL BE THE MIRACLE CURE FOR reflux IS BEYOND MY COMPREHENSION. eVERY CHILD IS DIFFERENT, iT WILL WORK FOR SOME BUT CERTAINLY FOR MINE THE ONLY THING THAT HELPED WAS LOSEC, ZANTA, E-MYCIN FOLLOWED BY 5 HOURS WORTH OF SURGERY.
I would be consulting a paed before trying anything!!!
Good luck

Hi,

There are just lots of parents on here with lots of different mild - severe reflux, the way it reads u could use this instead of the prescribed medication, I think it's really dangerous, Reflux can cause serious medical issues if untreated, Just putting accross my opinion.
Can I have the brand name to google it???

bwhahahaha I was thinking the exact same thing..... :yelclap:
Tristans Mum I also agree all of the ladies with this one. I have used this brand myself as I had friends selling it and was severely vomiting. My son has silent reflux and I will not under any circumstance put him through what I went through. You say "you know which one you would be using". Well so do I, Zoton it works and my son isn't going through what I went through with severley vomiting.
If your children had what our children had and you were telling us your testimonial than fair enough but you selling it for your Aunty is so wrong.
I am sorry if I have offended you. But I feel it is so wrong you trying to sell a product that could actually harm a child not help them.
