I gave up wine, tomatoes and spicy food. It still burned.
Cut everything they tell you to cut, and it still burns by bedtime. It was never just the food. Here's the part your body already does, and how to give it more.

Why cutting more food doesn't end it
- Eating before 6. Early dinners, turned-down invites, and it can still find her at 4 AM.
- Cutting wine, tomatoes and anything spicy. "even with the strict diet and meds, I still wake up with a sore throat."
- Sleeping propped up. Extra pillows, a raised bed. Another night sitting up in the dark.
- Chalky tablets after every meal. A roll in every bag, and a new box every week.
Your body already makes an antacid. It's your saliva.
Every time you swallow, saliva washes down your food pipe. Doctors showed in the New England Journal of Medicine in 1984 that the acid left behind is neutralized by swallowed saliva.
Helm JF et al., N Engl J Med 1984;310(5):284-8 (PMID 6690951).
Chewing gets your saliva going. So the question isn't only what you ate. It's what your mouth does after.
Same meal. They just chewed.
31 people with reflux ate a meal made to set it off, twice. One of those times, they chewed sugar-free gum for half an hour after. Acid time in the food pipe dropped by more than a third: from 5.7% to 3.6% of the time.â€
†Moazzez R et al., J Dent Res 2005;84(11):1062-5 (PMID 16246942). That study used regular sugar-free gum, not mastic.

What research on mastic found
- Listed by the European Medicines Agency as a traditional herbal medicine for mild indigestion, based on long-standing use.
- In a placebo-controlled study on mastic, 77% of people with indigestion reported marked improvement, vs 40% on placebo.*
- A clinical study on mastic found less upper-stomach bloating in adults with indigestion.*
- A 6-month placebo-controlled study found mastic changed the makeup of the gut microbiome in adults with fatty liver.*
- A placebo-controlled study on mastic found lower oxidized LDL, a marker of oxidative stress (antioxidant properties).*
*Research is on mastic, not on Gum of Gods specifically. Forms and doses varied. None of these studies measured heartburn.
Dinner with friends at 8 again.
Dessert. A glass of wine. Then a full night's sleep. That's what she's after. One piece of Classic after dinner is a small, real thing to add, instead of one more food to cut.
It's a food, not a medicine.
Don't change your medication over this. Talk to your doctor about heartburn. Chest pain can be a heart problem, so never assume it's heartburn. Call your doctor.

Before you try it
Will it upset my stomach?
Many sugar-free gums use sugar alcohols, which the FDA says can cause gas and bloating. Classic has none. It's one ingredient: mastic resin.
Is it OK with my medication?
Ask your doctor or pharmacist. We can't give medical advice.
What does it taste like?
Classic isn't minty, and it isn't candy-sweet. Clean.
Is it for everyone?
Not for people with dental work. Mastic is a hard resin. If you have crowns, bridges, implants, braces or dentures, skip this one. If chewing bothers your jaw, keep it short.
Can I skip or cancel?
Yes. Skip, pause or cancel anytime online. No calls.
When will it ship?
Ships same or next day.
