NON-STOP ACID REFLUX,
AND THE MEDICINE
THAT FINALLY STOPPED IT
If you suffer from G.E.R.D., please give this a good look.
At or around 32 years of age, I started experiencing late night acid attacks of my esophagus. Now, I'd had my share of occasional bouts with heartburn, but this was something distinctly different. Typically around 4 am, I'd awaken to something I liken to the feeling of having a hot, fist-sized, jagged chunk of volcanic rock being hydraulically shoved upward through my esophagus. The first few times literally brought tears of pain and hopelessness, and subsequently several days of extreme sensitivity to whatever I ate or drank.
Back then I had no idea how my standard western diet was largely to blame, as all I heard from the media was that spicy food was typically the culprit. But I never liked spicy food! I found that taking a bunch of antacids would only offer a brief respite, so in desperation I tried standing up straight while drinking many large cupfuls of water to drown it out without the toxic antacids, which I knew even back then contained high levels of aluminum. So mega-water would do the trick for 5 to 10 minutes, along with runs to the bathroom, then repeat, for up to 3 hours, when it would finally die down and I could go back to bed...or straight to work. What fun.
I eventually resorted to a prescription for the 'purple pill', which my doctor described as "the pill from God". And I sang its praises to the high heavens!
Until it stopped working.
You see, the body knows what it is doing, much better than we do. It knows that it needs the hydrochloric acid that the purple pill is blocking, so it soon begins to compensate by producing more. My gastroenterologist told me we don't need stomach acid. He said that was only needed long ago when our food was often crawling with little buggie things that our stomach acid would duly destroy, and that with today's nice clean processed food, stomach acid is no longer needed.
'Nice clean processed food'. Respectfully and sincerely, if you can read that with a straight face, you're in need of doing some research.
Anyway I believed him which now makes me giggle. I'm sure he believed it too. I eventually moved to the newer purple pill, but that didn't make any difference. Years later someone suggested I go see an allergist. An allergist? They said sometimes acid reflux is related to allergies, I figured what the heck, I had nothing to lose.
Well the allergist determined I'm allergic to almost everything that's green and growing, particularly ragweed, in which season I usually suffered the most, which made sense. He put me on Allegra, along with the purple pill, and voila! I was cured, I was cured, I was eating pizza and drinking beer again, hallelujah!
Until it stopped working.
Shooting forward 25 or so years, as I began to discover the truth of what passes for "food" at the supermarket, I began entering a lifestyle of veganism, and began treating my GERD several times a day with raw apple cider vinegar (diluted of course), and the episodes stopped, almost entirely. Now, rather than experiencing them once every 2 to 3 weeks or more, it was once every 2 to 3 months, which I was rather happy about.
Except on the nights they still happened.
And then I found the medicine. While desperately researching how to handle a tooth abscess without extraction or root canal, I came upon a website filled with testimonials of swishing the mouth with one's urine, and how it cures the abscess entirely.
"Ew! Eeeeeeeew! Nah, I'm not goin' there. Urine is waste, smells gross, and I'm not putting it in my mouth."
So I worked with garlic for the abscess, with decent success, but was only holding it at bay. I now had only a minor amount of ache, but still couldn't make it go away. So I searched more, and found that there are highly acclaimed books about what's called 'urine therapy' (UT), with tons more testimonials about the incredible efficacy of this free medicine contained within our own bodies.
So with a healthy dose of doubt, I bought a book by Martha Christy, "Your Own Perfect Medicine", and was blown away at how many studies have been done worldwide, and how many of them are published with glowing results even in the New England Journal of Medicine. But they're not telling us about these findings. What they are doing is publishing them for the benefit of the pharmaceutical INDUSTRY, which adds urea (the solid within urine) to some of their drugs to make them somewhat effective, then charges us outlandish amounts of money for what our bodies create for free.
Then I read John W Armstrong's "The Water of Life", and that was it. I learned that urine is NOT a waste product by any means, it is a sterile surplus of water, highly beneficial hormones, enzymes, etc, all taken directly from the blood. No waste. And it has saved many, many lives that had been entirely written off as 'terminal' by the medical INDUSTRY. If you'd like more detail, please see my article The Most Powerful Medicine on the Planet.
The Gross Factor
We've been taught that urine is a gross waste product, by the same powers that know the truth of it. It is not waste, not by any stretch of the imagination. It is SURPLUS, a critical distinction. When urine smells unpleasant, it's only because of our horrific western diet, combined with the fact that as time passes, it begins a chemical conversion to ammonia. When following a diet based upon our design, smell and taste are absolute non-factors, especially when taken fresh. I am personal living proof. So are my wife and son. As noted in the books and true in our experience, there has never once been a gag reflex experienced by any of us.
It's NOT what you've been told it is. You have my word on it.
The Results
In the days after beginning the swishing for my abscess, the pain faded entirely. I was so inspired by the books and my results to date, that I began testing some intake of my urine, beginning with a couple drops under the tongue (as suggested in Martha Christy's book), without spitting back out. No problems at all, so I gradually worked my way up to where I am now, which is I'm now consuming nearly all of it, particularly my first one of the morning which contains far and away the most beneficial hormonal elements.
The abscess is under complete control, and is healing.
And the big one, the acid reflux, is now EXTINCT. GONE, BABY!!!
Not one single incident in over 3 months, not even a threat. First time in over 25 years. Additionally, skin issues from candida are clearing up beautifully. I've suffered symptoms of candida for over 40 years, and they're disappearing!
UT is a therapy that's been in use for thousands of years, in many cultures, for countless ailments. It provides the body with hundreds of medicinal elements including hormones, enzymes and minerals.
The body's own, unique, perfect medicine. It's been demonized and buried by 'the powers that have no business being', but just like the current human awakening, it's making its way into the light of day.
I sincerely hope you'll do some research into this medicine that is created by your body, and is a perfect mix for the unique needs of your body. Like I did, ask yourself: "What do I have to lose?"
This series is my contribution to the body of work that is now well in progress around the world. And maybe, just maybe help provide the spark for more to begin implementing the changes that lead us all back to that place of comfort and love, a new Earth, virtually devoid of pain and fear. Together.
It's not easy, but it is simple and wonderful.
It's The Voyage Home.
In Love and Service,
from the Bottom of my Heart

Thank you so much Sasha! Yes, there is but one thing that can heal the human body, and that's the human body itself. Nothing else. Thanks for reading the article, and I'm looking forward to checking out your blog as well - Like yourself, I'm very much into spirituality. I haven't written much about it here yet, but I'm planning my next article around it.
Sincerely,
-Your new friend Logan
I am happy you found something that works for you, even this :) I had GERB and it was a nightmare. I tried almost everything and got to the point where I could not digest anything, not even water. Lost a lot of weight, got a fear of food and was in the hospital a lot. Then I met a nice old (veeeeery old) doctor who said to me that GERB is psychological, not physical and when I fix my head, I will fix my digestion. He was right. I started researching and got better, now I can eat anything and do not need any medication. I am so glad that is behind me. Thank you for sharing your story. I hope it helps someone in fighting this monster.
Petra thanks for sharing YOUR story!!! This is fascinating, and in my opinion very worthy of an article, should you choose to do so. I'd love to read some of the details of what you learned on your recovery journey. I'm thrilled this is behind both of us, and fascinated by how we went at it from such different directions. Very cool.
Thanks and much love,
-Logan
Nice one logan! I have tried this and understand urine, the only sterile liquid from the body, to be a miraculous feedback medicine! Isnt is curious how urine is fed throuh the very same tubes as mens semen!? That is a message! This stuff is prescious!!
Ah ha, you have indeed studied this as well my friend, and thanks! It is indeed a miraculous feedback medicine, and the tube through which it travels is in no way part of the waste highway. A great point, Alex.
Safe travels to India, looking very forward to hearing how things are setting up for you once you're there.
Love and safety to you mate,
-Logan

This is fascinating and a great read. Im glad it cured you but i do hope i dont get an ailment that necessitates that I drink my own pee. Xx
Hahaha thank you and remember that you feel that way only because of what you've been made to believe about what your pee really is. It's the most pure, sterile-clean medicine in the world, a surplus of hormones and enzymes taken directly out of your blood, pre-mixed within your body to suit your body's unique needs and challenges. And if ever you need it, it'll be right there waiting. :)
That said, if or when the time comes, please research deeper before trying, especially in regard to healing crisis. Healing too fast can get very uncomfortable, I know first hand.
My wife has terrible GERD, I'll have to show her this article and see if she could give it a try. It does sound reasonable, I've actually read a lot about fecal transplants in my clinical practice as a nurse, so urine seams pretty reasonable too.
Hi Phil! Thanks for your comment. How long has she been suffering with it? For me it was over 25 years of varying levels of terrible, now I'm doing the happy dance finally at age 60! It's funny about the fecal transplants, my wife is a medical research administrator (hates it by the way) and has processed grants for studies of that exact procedure several times. Apparently the results of the studies are rather amazing.
In any case, PLEASE get your wife a copy of Martha Christy's "Your Own Perfect Medicine" as a first read. Christy spends a good bit of time in the opening chapters of the book in allaying all fears of what urine really is, explains her own initial aversion to it, and just puts the reader in a place of comfort in the truth of this amazing, FREE, perfectly unique product of the blood.
Very best of luck, and please let me know if and how it progresses!!! I would LOVE to add additional personal case studies.
All my best,
-Logan
