Calcium's role in reflux protection
A combination of carbonates and Opuntia ficus-indica extract protects esophageal cells against simulated acidic and non-acidic reflux in vitro.
Calcium effect not fully clear
We examined a combination product of carbonate antacids—specifically calcium carbonate and magnesium carbonate—with an extract from Opuntia ficus-indica, commonly known as prickly pear. This study looked at how this product could potentially protect esophageal cells from damage caused by both acidic and non-acidic reflux.
Through a series of laboratory tests, we aimed to understand the effectiveness of the product in two ways: neutralizing stomach acid and protecting esophageal cells. The carbonate ingredients showed promising results in neutralizing acidity, which is a common complaint for those suffering from heartburn. However, while calcium’s role in this combination is significant, it isn't isolated; the extract from prickly pear also plays a crucial role in lowering inflammation triggered by bile acids.
Ultimately, we found that the combination product provided dual benefits, helping cells withstand both acidic conditions and irritation from bile acids. Yet, it's essential to note that we could not determine the isolated impact of calcium on reflux, as it works in tandem with other active ingredients. This insight encourages further exploration into the specific effects of calcium in reflux management.

Calcium's role in reflux unclear
The Tibetan Formula Cong zhi 6 in the ORL (ENT) Practice: Experiences with Laryngopharyngeal Reflux.
Calcium not specifically isolated
We explored the effects of a multi-herbal Tibetan formula known as Cong zhi 6, which includes calcium carbonate, on individuals suffering from laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR). Our focus was to understand whether calcium plays a role in alleviating reflux symptoms.
In our examination of ten patients who took Cong zhi 6, we observed significant improvements in both reflux symptoms as measured by the Reflux Symptom Index (RSI) and findings from laryngoscopy assessed via the Reflux Finding Score (RFS). While the results were promising, they did not isolate the specific impact of calcium.
Consequently, we cannot affirmatively state that calcium alone has a beneficial effect on reflux. The study indicated that LPR symptoms improved overall, but we remain uncertain about calcium's individual efficacy in this context. This highlights the need for further research to pinpoint the mechanisms at play in reducing reflux symptoms.

Less anxious
Two a day keeps the doctor away! Following an old pharmacist's advice, I take two tablets daily—one in the morning and one in the evening. I am much less anxious, and my bowel movements are regular. I used to experience bouts of acid reflux and sour stomach, but not anymore.
