Vitamins
Conventional wisdom says: A wide variety of vitamin supplements are commercially available, and most of them offer our bodies the vitamins and minerals we need for proper nutrition.

GERD (Gastro-Esophageal Reflux Disease)
Conventional wisdom says: Heartburn is a minor problem caused by excess acid production in a person’s stomach, and is easily dealt with by digesting a Tums lozenge or a similar candy-like product.
