Q. Dear Terry, “I have terrible problems with heartburn. I have heartburn once or twice every day. Is there something natural that can help me?” —Bob B., Beulah, MT A. Dear Bob, The first thing you should probably do is determine if there is a specific cause for your heartburn, like hiatal hernia, and rule this out with your doctor to determine that your problem is indeed heartburn. There are some great natural ways to help with your heartburn issues. I like a combination of d-limonene and sea buckthorn oil. The synergistic blend of d-limonene and sea buckthorn oil greatly improves healthy digestive function. Sea buckthorn has been clinically studied for healing ulcers and other gastric lining inflammation that can also cause heartburn, and d-limonene has been studied for severe chronic heartburn called GERD, or gastroesophageal reflux disease. This combination is very soothing to the mucosa of the digestive tract. You should see improvements within a month or two when using this formula. Best wishes for good health, Terry
