My indigestion started in my 20s from diet, drink, and cigarettes. It got worse in my 30s, which ended with a massive attack of something (I was working at a gold mine, too far to call a doctor) which my doctor later figured was gastritis. Then the D started as a daily feature in my life. Finally my indigestion was so severe that the burning lasted all day every day and I began to have reflux. In July of 1998 I began taking a flavonoid supplement called Provex CV for my cholesterol. It turns out that it also has anti-inflammatory properties. Within a couple of months, that burning disappeared. Indigestion stopped. I have never refluxed again. And my D came under control over the following year. I don't use any OTCs and no longer have to modify my diet. And my cardio risk has dropped from 50% to 2%.I can't say if this would help you or not; but if you suspect inflammation it ought to be worth a shot.Mark
