Ever feel like your stomach’s throwing a tantrum after every meal? Bloating, acid reflux, or that 'I ate too much' feeling—these aren’t just annoying. They’re super common, and you don’t have to suffer silently. At Shiner Family Pharmacy, we’ve helped countless people find real relief with straightforward digestive support strategies. Let’s skip the guesswork and focus on what actually works for your gut.
First, let’s get real: your stomach issues aren’t always your fault. Acid reflux (that burning after eating) often comes from too much stomach acid, not just spicy food. GERD can turn daily life into a struggle. Stress? It’s a gut killer too. Even low vitamin B12 or D can cause digestive problems and fatigue. If you’re constantly bloated or tired, ask your doctor about a simple blood test. It’s a quick way to rule out nutrient gaps that might be messing with your digestion.
So, what’s the fix? Start with probiotics. These good bacteria (in yogurt, kefir, or supplements) balance your gut. We’ve seen people feel better within days just by adding a daily probiotic. For acid reflux, medications like Protonix help by lowering stomach acid—but you’ll need a prescription. Don’t try to DIY this. But here’s the thing: even with meds, what you eat matters. Skip caffeine, alcohol, and heavy meals—they’re major reflux triggers. If you’re on antibiotics (like for a UTI), probiotics can prevent stomach upset. Try adding ginger tea for nausea or fiber-rich foods like oats to ease bloating. And stay hydrated—water helps digestion move smoothly. If symptoms stick around for two weeks, see a doctor. Don’t wait for it to get worse. Your gut deserves better than just surviving.
