Lily Of The Desert Stomach Formula, Organic Aloe Vera Juice with Slippery Elm, Chamomile, Peppermint, and Ginger for Gut Health, Acid Reflux, Heartburn Relief, 32 Oz

Great product.

Im about to give way too much info, but I think in context, its vital to purchasing this product.I have had consistent digestive problems my entire life. As a teenager I got ulcers that I was medically treated for. I have always had GERD or acid reflux. And in my adult days, I have been experiencing a list of symptoms that can only be described as hell. Whenever I eat, no matter what it is that Im eating, I feel pain after it reaches my stomach. Sharp, stabby pain. Ive had ulcers, and it is not the ulcer pain, its a different kind. After it would pass my stomach, I could feel my intestines get extremely bloated and they would gurgle all day, extremely loud, until it reached my bowls. This is where the TMI comes in...I would start to feel clammy, nauseas, like I was going to vomit, and would sit down to go to the bathroom. It would be burning, come out loose (not diarrhea) and would cause severe cramping. When I would look at my poop, I could see the fragments of food that were not digested at all. Whole freaking pieces of my dinner, that were not broken down. This was happening for months. Like I said...Hell. Food is one of my passions, because I love to cook. I am a clean eater too. Ive been vegetarian, part time vegan for several years now. And this didnt seem to make a difference. Food was betraying me, and I felt hopeless because I knew if I went to a doctor, I would not only have to pay hundreds of dollars for a cut and dry diagnosis - but the diagnosis would most likely be the blanket term: IBS. I wasnt interested in paying for a Web MD diagnosis from a professional...so I just did what I could do, avoided caffeine, alcohol, spicy foods, dairy, raw foods, really anything enjoyable in life. THEN I WENT TO WHOLE FOODS. I walked around their herbal department and came across this bottle, front and center people! Stomach formula!!! I read the back of it, and was excited about the ingredients. Im very holistic when it comes to medicine, so I have been taking ginger in my tea, slippery elm in capsule, and chamomile in tea, and aloe every once in awhile. But all these things separately are hard to remember. But this is compact into one bottle.I have been taking this stuff before every meal, for a week now, and let me tell you something...it works. Simple as that. My poop is solid again, I don't feel like Im going to vomit every time I go, I don't have sharp pains after I eat, I don't feel like Im going to float away in the air from being so bloated, and I feel the love for food again that I have been missing for months. This stuff is magic. Really its just all the best stuff for your stomach crammed into one gooey formula. But otherwise, its known as magic.FY: it tastes disgusting. Life is full of trade offs. You can suffer for months or you can cringe for a moment. I decided the latter. Just chase it down with some juice and eventually you will accept one nasty sip is a part of a long, prosperous life.Buy this from Amazon, because at Whole Foods, 1 bottle is 20$. On Amazon, you can get 2 for 26$ or 1 for 11$. I will drink this stuff for the rest of my life because of how quick it was to help me.

Works well

Gets four stars because it is highly effective. At least as good as Pepto or it's knock offs.It is highly disgusting to taste. If you already have a sour stomach, you may have to pinch your nose to get this down. GREAT for kids (if you can get them to swallow it - one of my kids would spit anything out that was this gross). But great because it contains no salicylates that I could see (Reye's syndrome is extremely rare - you are probably ok having your kid drink Pepto - but why take the chance, right?)I don't mind taking synthetic products with chemicals if they are proven to be safe and effective, but not everyone feels that way. If natural ingredients are your thing - this works well. You do have to refrigerate after opening and I'm not sure how long it lasts after open and in the fridge. I have some that is at least a month old and hasn't gotten moldy nor lost its efficacy.

I had been prescribed high doses of omeprazole and ranitidine (both twice a day) for a recurring bleeding ulcer for over 8 months. I was down to only being able to eat chicken broth with little bits of chicken, no seasoning, bananas, and oatmeal and weighed only 85lbs. My kidneys were starting to have issues due to the prescriptions and my life felt like it was over. I couldn't see an end to this torture and was not getting better. I starting seeing an acupuncturist who recommened I take this stuff. I am so glad I did. I started with 2 tbsp twice daily in November. In December I was able to drop the ranitide. In January I was able to drop the omeprazole. By March, at the time of this review, I am now only taking one dose of Lily of The Desert, 2 tbsp a day and am able to eat nearly anything I like that isn't hot and spicy. I feel so much better and have gained 10 lbs back. My doctor was even impressed with how this was helping me. I can't say whether this will work for anyone else, but for me it was a life saver.If you take this, don't expect a miracle after the first dose. It works slow, yet it is effective if you stick to it. After dropping the omeprazole, I felt like I was getting worse again for the first week, but then started really gaining ground in healing. Also, don't take too much or you will have runny stools.

I’ve been having throat shattering Gerd for the past couple years. This product has been the only thing that has been letting me eat relatively normally. I WILL be purchasing again.

I have been using the product for many years (since 2014) after being diagnosed with Barret's esophagus and precancerous spots in my esophagus. I was told by my gastroenterologist that I had to take prilosec twice a day in order to control acid in my system. I had almost constant pain from acid reflux and acid indigestion. After taking this supplement for a few years I am almost completely free of symptoms and I get a clean bill of health every time I get an endoscopy. All the damage has been repaired. I also try to eat healthy and I have an alkaline water machine, but I am sure this product is the main reason I am doing so much better.
