Infant cured of Baby GERD with Nat Phos 6x

I am copying the case history of Grace a 1 year old little girl who presented severe GERD for which the pediatrician prescribed the PPI drug Prilosec which is considered as dangerous for adults when used in the long term.

This infant was then subjected to various other invasive tests and 2 surgeries to correct blockages in her nose which were precipitated by the action of the gastric juice which virtually burnt her mucus lining restricting her breathing.

I was able to CURE her with my default therapy Nat Phos 6x and Nux Vomica 30c in the Wet dose.

I would urge parents who have babies who suffer from Baby GERD to use this same therapy, preferably after consulting me on my Website.

My daughter, Grace, was diagnosed with acid reflux at 6 weeks of age and was immediately put on a low dose of Pepsid. She continued to vomit and show symptoms of reflux despite the medication. She was exclusively breast fed and continued to limit how much milk she would drink per feeding.

When she turned four months old, I was encouraged by her pediatrician to start solid foods, which I did. At first she would eat but after a couple weeks she started refusing solid food and was still limiting the quantity of breast milk she was drinking. At 6 months of age her pediatrician referred her to an ENT physician due to chronic fluid in her ears and chronic nasal congestion. The ENT changed her medication from Pepsid to Prilosec and ordered several tests including: Upper GI series, Barium Swallow Study, Gastric Emptying Study, PH probe, Sleep Study and Upper Endoscopy. All of these tests showed severe uncontrolled acid reflux. In addition, the sleep study showed moderate/severe sleep apnea due to her inflamed adenoids secondary to reflux.

Her medication was once again changed this time to Prevacid. I was told my daughter needed to have her adenoids removed. She had an adenoidectomy at 9 months of age and bilateral tubes placed due to the chronic fluid in her ears. Within two months after her surgery, she began to show symptoms of breathing difficulty while sleeping and nursing. She was then scoped at the ENT office and found to have a tumor like growth in the back of her throat where the adenoid tissue had been removed. The next day she was scheduled for an MRI to make sure the growth was not attached to her brain (which it was not) and then scheduled to have the growth surgically removed. After the growth was removed it was then biopsied and shown to be comprised of necrotic granulation tissue secondary to uncontrolled acid reflux. Her medication was then changed once again to Nexium. She continued to vomit regularly, gag, wet burp, hiccup and refuse solid food. Despite her two surgeries, four different dangerous reflux medications and an enormous amount of worry and heartache, my little girls reflux was worse than ever before. No acid reflux medication offered her relief.

I kept searching for different answers to help my daughter and came across a post on babycenter.com from a mom who said her baby’s reflux had been cured by the homeopathic Cell Salt Nat Phos 6x. One of my close friends had told me about Nat Phos and I had been giving it to my daughter for three weeks prior but had been also continuing to give her Nexium. After reading this women’s post I contacted Joe De Livera and he started my daughter on his protocol using Nat Phos 6x after each feeding and Nux Vomica 30c in the WET DOSE twice daily and to STOP the Nexium. Stopping this dangerous PPI was the key to allowing the Nat Phos and Nux Vomica to work in her body. The first day she seemed to vomit more and then the second day her reflux symptoms seemed to disappear. It has been almost two weeks now and I have never seen my daughter more reflux free. She has virtually no symptoms of vomiting, or gagging and she is eating more solid food. Our entire family has been praying feverishly for our little girl and are forever grateful to Joe for his commitment to helping our daughter and thousands of other people.

      The remedy that has proved to be very effective for Baby GERD is:

      Nat Phos 6x dose 1 tablet dissolved in milk given immediately after a feed.

      It is essential that you burp baby immediately after each feed.

      Report prrogress in 24 hours.

        thank you very much for getting back to me. should i stop giving my son the famotidine and colic calm. i appreciate your help.

            Hi! Thank you so much for helping all these parents. I want to start this to get my baby off the pharmaceutical antacids. Just have one question – does it have to be dissolved in breastmilk? Or can I dissolve in tiny bit of purified water ? Thank you for your time

            • Joe says:

              Water is OK.

              • Ishy says:

              • Ishy says:

                Thank you for such a swift reply. Will be starting my son on this once it arrives! Just one more question – what are the possible side effects? I read a couple of other forums on this and parents seem to be having issues with sleep …some are reporting increased alertness of baby, while others are saying baby is sleeping more . From your experience , what have you seen more often in terms of most possible side effects ? As always , thank you

      • maria says:

        Hi joe, i have a 3 month old, 15 lbs 6 oz baby girl. her symptoms of reflux include gagging, coughing, wet burps, arching her back, occasional vomit, etc. she is exclusively breastfed and wants to nurse every moment she is awake, she doesn’t nap well so that means she nurses a lot and doesn’t have a regular schedule. she also nurses until she is able to fall asleep. if she is awoken she wants to continue nursing. at night she sleeps on top of me while i am reclined so she sleeps well. but in the daytime she won’t sleep more than 15 min at a time unless she is held or carried in a sling. how do you suggest i give nat phos 6x to her?

        • Joe says:

          I noticed that you have addressed me by my given name, Joe. I do not permit being addressed by name on my website, as I only permit my peers and close friends to do so.

          In Sri Lanka where I live there is a certain modicum of respect reserved for age. I am 85 years old.

          I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed to hundreds of babies which I hope will help your baby too.

          The remedy that has proved to be very effective for Baby GERD is:

          Nat Phos 6x tablet dissolved in milk given immediately after a feed. Start with half tablet but if the response is not as expected, you may increase to a full tablet but you will not exceed 6 tablets in 24 hours.

          You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after each feed.

          You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby.You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

          It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over a year old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
          Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

          You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.
          Report progress in 24 hours and as often as you wish on this thread.

          If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

            Hi i apologize for the late response. i don’t easily have access to the internet. and oh i am so sorry for using your first name, yes i completely understand and you are right. my baby is doing so much better. thank you so much for your time and service. i was wondering if you would be able to suggest any remedies for baby sleep problems. my baby has trouble napping. she wakes up every 30 minutes and cries because she is still tired but is not able to fall back asleep. she also has nightmares sometimes and is at times jumpy or nervous.

            • Joe says:

              I note that you do not have easy access to the Internet and accept your apology for addressing me under my first name. I do not normally prescribe for patients who do so till they first apologise but since your baby was the patient, I did not hesitate to do so but was wondering why you did not apologise in the manner that other patients have done for following your example.

              I checked your first post and discovered that you reported that your baby at 3 months on March 29 was 15lb 6oz.

              I am not a pediatrician but it seems to me that she is overweight and from your reports she demands a feed all the time and this may be the real reason for her current distress although you have reported that she is doing much better.

              Her weight which I presume is now increased considerably is a matter of some concern to me and may warrant consulting a pediatrician to verify this matter.

              I hope that you will take my advice and consult a doctor and report the diagnosis.

      Please help us with our baby. He is 6 weeks old. We have been on a whirlwind with acid reflux and it seems to have gotten worse as everyday goes on. The dr prescribed medication I gave for 3 days at it was noticeably worse. He will not nap unless held upright. He is now not sleeping at all. Cries and grunts arches his back all the time, his reflux congestion is terrible his nose sounds full all the time. When he doses off he is quickly woke up and acts like his breath is taken and you can tell he’s trying to swallow it back down. He is always hungry and wants more, at the moment he is on 3.5oz and eating every 3 hours on the dot with often times wanting more sooner when I tried 4 oz he still seemed hungry immediately after feeds as usual and the spit up worsened so I am back to 3.5oz and soothing as best I can. We need some help and want to try homeopathy. No medications for him. Mom and dad are broken. He is on Similac Alimentum but ped dr says he just needs sometime to mature has not said anything about milk allergies.

        I am over 93 years and do not actively practice today.

        I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

        The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

        You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

        You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

        Babies do not always do a poo daily. Some babies can go up to 5 days to do so. A gentle massage of her abdomen after every feed in a clockwise direction usually stimulates evacuation.

        You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

        It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
        Do not give the MMR Vaccine in One shot as there is plenty of evidence on the Web of severe side effects which can result. You are advised to give it in 3 separate shots if you must do so, after baby is 2 years old.

        Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

        You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

        You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby when you start on my therapy.

          Hello, I have a 3 month old baby girl with severe silent reflux,
          She is on Prevacid twice a day since 4 weeks old. Still suffering, now she won’t even settle for naps and nights are hell. She is up every couple minutes, I’m holding her all night and during naps.
          Please help me, this is awful. I heard of everyone’s success stories
          And pray I can have one too. I want to see her sleeping well and out of pain and to get her off these meds that don’t even work.
          Thank you and many blessings.

              Thank you so much. But if I stop Prevacid that will cause her reflux to rebound and produce more acid and pain.

                  Thank you for your response. I was trying to find my post and had difficulty. Can you please tell me do immediately stop the Prevacid before giving the nat phos? So I can give one tablet per feed up to 6 per day?

                  Only thing I worry is stopping the medicine causes more acid production .

    ok. thank you oh so much. i will report his progress after i get Nat Phos 6x.

    • erin says:

      hi joe

      we started the first day of nat phos 6x yesterday. i gave him 1 full tablet first feeding and 1 tablet the second feeding. the rest of the feedings i gave a half tablet each feeding. he seemed a lil more calm and i was able to lay him down to sleep in the evening. he was able to get some gas out too. at night he was having his crying attacks after every feeding. they lasted about an hour each. he was fussy while sleeping when he finally calmed down. he is still in a lot of discomfort from the acid reflux. should i give him the full tablet instead of half. all of your help is greatly appreciated.

      • Joe says:

        erin

        It is obvious that you need to give him the full tablet of Nat Phos 6x and all will be well.

            hi joe

            i gave 1 tablet after after each of his four feedings during the day. he is still very uncomfortable and crying in the day and at night. after some feedings whenn he starts to cry he does calm down a lil faster. he sleeps when he is being held. he may sleep a half an hour to an hour when i lay him down. should i continue with the nat phos 6x. is there anything else i can do. please help me. thank you.

              You may have to add Nux Vomica 30c in the Wet dose given twice daily, to help reinforce the effect of Nat Phos 6x.

              I note that you feed him just 4 times.
              I presume that you breast feed him.
              Suggest you give him shorter feeds 6 times daily. This may help him to digest the milk in small quantities instead of the relatively large qty 4 times daily

          • erin says:

            i am not breast feeding. he is on similac allimentum formula. he has about 8 feedings a day. i only gave him the nat phos 6x during his daytime feedings because i thought he could not have more than 4 tablets of nat phos 6x. do i give him the nux vomica 30c directly.

            i have had anxiety for the past few years. i have taken medicine for it in the past. but i choose not to anymore. would you be able to help me with my anxiety. thank you.

              You have NOT reported your baby’s response to my therapy. This is essential to enable me to monitor his progress.

              You may give him up to 6 tablets Nat Phos 6x daily if he requires this dosage. This remedy is absolutely safe in use and is being used by hundreds of babies instead of the PPI Drugs which are prescribed by the doctors.

              You will give him the Nux Vomica in the Wet dose made as instructed twice daily in a teaspoon which he will take before a feed.

              You will have to give me more data on your “anxiety” to enable me to prescribe a remedy.
              How did it start and how long ago?
              What did your doctors prescribe and what was their diagnosis?
              How old are you?
              Do you have any problems in your family which caused the anxiety?

          • erin says:

            i have seen some change in him. his crying moments are a lil easier to calm. and do not seem to last as long. he is sleeping better when i lay him down. but still sleeps better being held. he is showing sings of the acid reflux by arching his back. he is eating good and burping. he is still gassy but is passing gas more. what is the correct way to prepare the nux vomica 30c in the wet dose. can i get that at the vitamin shop.

            regarding my anxciety. i have had it for about 10 years. i was diagnosed with OCD when i was 24 and i am 33 years old. i was on zoloft. i did not like the side effects from it. i do get anxiety attacks sometimes but i am ok. with caring for my son and getting less sleep i am very anxious. and i am having a hard time sleeping and falling asleep when i can. i have no significant happenings with my family that triggered my anxiety. my odd is doing things over and over. a certain number of times. thank you.

              Erin

              Glad to note that baby is responding as expected to my therapy.
              I shall copy below the protocol to make the Wet dose which YOU will make according to the instructions which I have already given you but shall repeat again. Your pharmacy may not have ever heard of the Wet dose which is my own special therapy which has been proved to be far superior to the dry pellets.

              The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

              Order the remedy in the Ethanol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
              Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
              Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
              Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
              Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done at least 6 times before sipping a capful of the bottle as prescribed.

              Please follow the following restrictions which are essential to ensure that the remedy prescribed is not antidoted:

              Do not use Coffee, Cola beverages, preserved foods like sausages, ham and bacon as they contain Saltpeter.

            • Joe says:

              Erin

              I am dealing with your own OCD/ Depression separately as it is important that you do NOT MIX your therapy with Baby’s. If you are breast feeding him I must request you to NOT take the remedy as I do not want it to be in your milk which will be passed over to baby.

              The remedy is Aurum Metallicum 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily.

              Follow the same instructions in my post for Baby to make the Wet dose.

              If you cannot get the Liquid Dilution of both remedies you may mail order them from

              Washington Homeopathics
              http://www.homeopathyworks.com
              1 800 336 1695

              You can use the dry pellets of Nux Vomica for Baby as his need is urgent till you get the Liquid Dilution.

              I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

              The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

              You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

              You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

              You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

              Babies do not always do a poo daily. Some babies can go up to 5 days to do so. A gentle massage of her abdomen after every feed in a clockwise direction usually stimulates evacuation.

              It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
              Do not give the MMR Vaccine in One shot as there is plenty of evidence on the Web of severe side effects which can result. You are advised to give it in 3 separate shots if you must do so, after baby is 2 years old.

              Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

              You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

              If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

              You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.

                Dear Mr De Livera

                Thank you so much for your protocol and advice. One question – at 6 weeks my baby feeds more than 6 times in 24 hours but he cannot have more than hand 6 tablets a day … so he cannot have the nat phis before and after every feed. Should I give it to him every other feed? Or only in the daytime and not at night? What is best? Thank you so much. Warm regards

                • Joe says:

                  You have not reported if my therapy has helped your baby so far.
                  For how long have you given him the Nat Phos ?

                  • Aimee Rai says:

                    Hello. I have not replied because it hasn’t not yet been 24 hours. So far he does not seem any bettter. I would appreciate I you could answer my question above about every feed or 6 times a day?? Many many thanks to you

                  • Aimee says:

                    Hello again. Just to report back that we have now been giving my baby the Nat Phos first 24 hours and so far see no difference. Maybe he actually seems a little more distressed after each feeding. What can we do? Thank you so much again.

              • Aimee says:

                Hi Mr De Livera,

                So to update you we have been giving the Nat Phos and following your protocol exactly for 2 days now and unfortunately service no improvement. He actually seems maybe more distressed when vomiting. What would you suggest? Many many thanks

                • Joe says:

                  Since baby is not responding to the Nat Phos alone you will add Robinia Pseudacacia 30c in the Wet dose twice daily in the morning and in the evening. This remedy will hopefully solve your baby’s problem as it acts in a similar manner to the PPI drugs doctors prescribe to reduce the flow of Hcl Acid into the stomach.
                  You will continue to give her the Nat Phos as usual.

                  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

                  Order the remedy in the Ethanol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
                  Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
                  Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
                  Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you give baby a teaspoonful of the remedy twice daily.

                  If you cannot get the Liquid dilution you may use the standard Pellets available. You will use 6 pellets in a 500ml bottle of water.

    Hi,

    My son is 27 months old (weighs 26.5 pounds and 33 inches tall) has been suffering from reflux since he was 4 months old. He was full term kid and I had no complications during delivery.

    He has been throwing up ever since he is 4 months old and still throws up 1-4 times a day on most days. We did multiple tests on him (stomach emptying test, barium test, upper GI scope, ultrasounds) but the GI cannot find anything wrong with him except reflux. He has been on zantac 2.6 ml dose two times a day – and prilosec 5ml (liquid form) 2 times a day for 1.5 yrs now. The GI says he is on the max dose for both but his reflux still seems to bother him.

    I wanted to give homeopathy a try but not sure what and how much to give him. Can you please guide me with this

    Thanks,

      Please do not make multiple posts as it makes my mission more time consuming as I have to read every post to help the patient.

      I HAVE JUST NOTICED THAT YOU HAVE USED MULTIPLE ID’S FOR YOUR POSTS. THIS MAKES YOUR CASE EVEN MORE CONFUSING AND IF YOU DO SO AGAIN, I SHALL BE COMPELLED TO DELETE THEM ALL AS I HAVE INFORMED YOU OF MY VIEWPOINT ABOVE.

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy that has proved to be very effective for Baby GERD is:

      Nat Phos 6x dose 1 tablet dissolved in milk given immediately after a feed.

      It is essential that you burp baby immediately after each feed.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby.You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily and Arnica 6c in the Wet dose taken twice daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

      The above is only of relevance if you are breast feeding him.

      Report progress in 24 hours and as often as you wish on this thread .

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Order the remedy in the Liquid pack in Alcohol, also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
      Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard at least 6 times before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
      Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this enhances the effect of the remedy on the user.

        Sorry I am new to computers

        Joe, my son is over 2 years old (not a baby anymore and no on breast milk) – just making sure the same dose is applicable to him

        I would like to give some more info about him
        He has been this way since he was 4 months old (now is 27 months old) – he threw up a few times btw 2 months and 4 months – but it wasnt bad enough so ped didnt think we needed to put him on reflux med. It got really bad when he started solids around 4.5 months. then we stopped solids and went back to beast milk only but the throw up got better but was still there. its almost like the solids did some damage. currently he is gluten free and dairy free but nothing helps. we started him back on solids at around 10 months and 1 month later started OT and zantac and started seeing a GI.

        He eats the same food for lunch, bf and dinner – i have made sure i give him the same stuff to rule out any other problems but some days its fine – he doesn’t throw up at all – someday he throws up 2-3 times (with the same food and same quantity)

        – he has a 1/2 banana, 1 inch piece of mango, 5 blue berries and some formula with 1/4 tsp olive oil all blended together for bf

        for lunch he has one pouch of the earths best sweet potato + beet (4oz) – with 1/2 tbsp olive oil

        for dinner he has one pouch of brocolli + apple (4oz) with 1/2 tbsp olive oil

        we were told to add the olive oil to increase calories since he barely eats any solids

        apart from the solids he has around 12oz formula

        Thanks,
        pporecha

          It is possible that your son’s gastric problems are due to your overfeeding him.

          I would suggest that you do not force feed him and let him eat what he wants in his own time.

          You may use Nat Phos 6x dose 1 tablet after every meal, if you feel that he suffers from GERD.

          • Purvi says:

            There have been days when my son has thrown up bile first thing in the morning – without me giving him anything

            How can I be over feeding him – he eats a 4 oz jar for lunch and dinner – something 4 month old babies are supposed to eat (he is almost 2.5 yrs old) if anything we were asked to put olive oil in his food to help him gain some weight coz he has not gained any weight in 6 months

            I dont know what he is suffering from – I dont know if its GERD – what are the symptoms for GERD?

      You can do a search for GERD on Google. You have mentioned REFLUX which is caused by GERD and the drugs you have been prescribed have not helped him but made his condition infinitely worse.

      I am shocked to learn that you have been advised to feed him a 4 oz jar of solids for both lunch and dinner at 4 months with olive oil added.

      The multiple tests with Barium you listed were the result.

      Your paediatricians seem to have had a field day with your son and prescribed Zantac and Prilosec at the ADULT dosage and you are the best judge if they have helped him. For how long has this been going on?

      I would like to have a list of his progress from the time you gave him solids to today with the drugs prescribed to enable me to help him with my therapy.

      In the meanwhile please order the following remedies:

      Nat Phos 6x Biochemic Cell Salt. 200gm tablets.
      Nux Vomica 30 Liquid Dilution.

      You will confirm that you will STOP all drugs and abide by my advice especially with regards to his food intake.

      • Purvi says:

        Hi,

        My son is not 4 months old – he is 2.5 YEARS old. I have not been advised to give him solids or olive oil at 4 months. He didnt start solids untill he was 6 months old. He started 2 tbsp of olive oil at 2 yrs of age (not before). I was trying to ans your prev concern on over feeding – that he cannot be over fed coz he is 2.5 yrs old and eats a 4 oz stage 2 jar for lunch – which also he sometimes throws up. Once again my son is 2.5 year old – he not an infant or a baby

        The zantac and prilosec did help initially but it feels like they stop working after sometime – its almost like his body goes immune to them – and we keep increasing the dosage but that works for a bit and then he starts to vomit again.

        The results of all his tests come out all clean – no issues – no allergies or intolerance to any food – but i have kept him gluten free and dairy free for sometime now – coz i dont know what else to try now

        Thanks,

          I hope you read my request to you about your multiple posting. Please confirm.

          You will use the remedies prescribed below:

          Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets dissolved in milk given immediately after a feed.
          Nux Vomica 30c in the Wet dose given twice daily.

          You will STOP all other drugs.

          I am not happy with the current food you are giving as according to you, he throws it all up. I would prefer that you feed him home cooked food in place of the processed jars. No Olive Oil.

          Report progress in 24 hours.

          The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

          Order the remedy in the Liquid pack in Alcohol, also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.

    He is over 2 yrs and eats a 4 oz stage 2 puréed jar for lunch and dinner – which also he throws up most of the times

    He either gags, coughs, burps and then it’s all out

    Joe,

    I have been reading a lot on your remedy to cure GERD because my 2 month old son was diagnosed at 3 weeks with infant reflux. The Dr.s immediatley placed him on zantac and he was miserable after a week on it. He wasnt sleeping, constantly crying, and barely eating with lots of arching. I found information anout the Nat Phos 6x and went snd bought it. I started him with 1 tablet after every feeding for one day with immediate success. Bybthe second day i took him down to half a tablet and he was doing even better…and then gave him half of a half tablet on day 3. I stopped the tablet by day 4 and he seemed great. He was eating and sleeping soundly and no longer crying, arching, and you couldnt even hear the reflux any longer. But last week he started with the arching and leaving some milk in his bottle as well. Just additional information on him…he is 8 weeks old weighing about 10.5 lbs. i tried the 3 day remedy again and he showed signs of improving but once we finished the 3rd day he started the arching again. Can you please assist me? Should he be on it longer? I am located in the US and if you need any other information please let me know.

    • Joe says:

      zolivo20

      I am glad to note that you have read the many cases of Baby GERD on my website and used the same therapy that has helped hundreds of babies to overcome their gastric distress which pediatricians treat with the dangerous PPI drugs like Nexium and others equally dangerous to adults and more dangerous to babies.

      The answer to your question is obvious.

      Give baby a FULL tablet of Nat Phos 6x immediately after his feed and he will be smiling.

      Nat Phos 6x is absolutely safe for babies and the many whom I have CURED of their problems are testimony to its effectiveness.

      • zolivo20 says:

        I guess my question is how long do i keep giving him the 1 tablet for? While he is on it he does great and then once i start to taper off it eventually comes back. I just wanted to double check ifnthere is a specific time period he should be on it before i start reducing the amount. Thank you so much for your help!

        • Joe says:

          zolivo20

          Don’t you think that it is somewhat early to ask me for how long you should give baby the Nat Phos 6x?

          After all you have only started my therapy aka “Joepathy” TODAY.

          I can reassure you that Nat Phos is not to be confused with the dangerous PPI drugs you were prescribed. NP is absolutely safe in use on a daily basis can can be used for as long as you feel that baby need it.

          Report progress often to keep me advised of his response.

  9. zolivo20 says:

    Im sorry i guess i didnt explain myself correctly in my initial post i have tried the nat phos 6x already for 3 days he did fine and it came back 3 weeks later. So i wanted to ask if it was fine to give it to him for longer than 3 days since it seems it obviously depends on the childs response. My apologies for not explaining that correctly.

    • Joe says:

      zolivo20

      If, as I understand, you stopped the Nat Phos in 3 days simply because your son was OK at that time and discovered in 3 WEEKS that he was NOT, you have obviously jumped the gun by presuming that NP can help baby during this period, as it seems to have done, to my great surprise!.

      If my surmise is correct this will prove how very effective HP is to help Baby GERD.

      All you have to do, even without my permission, is to give it to him as prescribed, again.

    Hi Dr. Livera,

    I had contacted you on the http://www.abchomeopathy.com/ website
    http://www.abchomeopathy.com/forum2.php/388671
    regarding the Acid Reflux problem that I was suffering from. You had suggested the use of the following medication

    1. I have a bottle of Arnica Mont. 30c (Homeopathic dilution, 1Fl.Oz, Bruises and muscle soreness).
    I have added 3-4 drops of it in a 500ml bottle of dasani mineral water.
    I will be taking a TableSpoon full of it twice daily.

    2. I have a bottle of Hylands #10 Nat.Phos 6x ( Indigestion, Gas, Joint Pain), Formula: Natrum Phosphoricum 6X HPUS in a base of Acacia Gum , Lactose NF.
    I will be taking 4-6 tablets after lunch and dinner.

    I have been taking it for the past month, and I can see significant difference in my reflux issues 🙂
    I just wanted to know if I should add a dosage of Nux Vomica to my regimen, to enhance the recovery process?

    Also Dr. Livera, we were planning for a baby, can I continue with this medication even while I am pregnant, or should I substitute it with some other med?

    Eagerly looking forward to a response…
    Thank you so much for the help!

      I have just discovered that you are F as I presumed from your posts on the ABC that you were M.

      Suggest you postpone starting a baby till you have overcome your GERD related problems.

      I can see that your case is CHRONIC and calls for another remedy:
      Robinia Pseudocacia 6c which will hopefully reduce the flow of acid like the PPI drugs you have been using today.

      You will use it in the Wet dose taken twice daily.

      Report progress on my website.

      What is your name and where do you live?

      • thepride21 says:

        Hello Dr. Livera,

        I just tested positive for pregnancy.
        Request you to please suggest whether I should continue with Nat Phos and Nux Vomica, maybe lower the dosage or should I subsitute it with some other medication. coz I know acidity gets worse during this phase.

        Please recommend.
        I am currently living in Los angeles.

        Thanks for the help.

        • Joe says:

          Congratulations on the good news.

          You do not have to take Nux Vomica unless you find that Nat Phos alone is not helping your GERD. This remedy is absolutely safe to be used at all times and you may like to know that it is the ultimate remedy for Morning Sickness.

          Report progress.

          • thepride21 says:

            Thank you Dr. Livera.
            I will continue with nat Phos 4 tabs thrice a day. ( plz sugest if the dosage has to be reduced for any negative impacts?)
            Also Dr. can I take Nux vomica whenever the acidity gets worse, or should it be completely avoided?

            Thank you

              You contacted me on Sept 13 for your GERD and you were taking Nat Phos 6x but you have NOT reported if your GERD is better or worse.

              You also reported that you were keen to start a baby and I suggested that you postpone the event till your GERD, which I presume you have suffered from for some time, is cured.

              You then reported that you were pregnant and you expect me to advise you on what to do now without any background facts.

              To start with, the least I can expect is that you report on your current status in detail.

          • thepride21 says:

            Hi Dr. Livera,

            Apologies for not reporting my progress in detail and making u assume how things are on my end.

            Here are my details.
            I have been taking the Nat Phos (thrice a day-4 tabs) and arnica 30c in wet dose twice a day for the past month.
            I have seen substantial difference in the GERD related symptoms since then. There were times when I felt totally normal, but I cant say its completely gone, as some times I did feel the burning down the throat/chest sometimes back, mostly during the day time. But certainly i could see a gradual improvement on my situation before I started with this and hoped continuous medication will eventually wipe it off completely.

            Last week I discovered I was pregnant and so I am about 4.5 weeks pregnant as I write. That is when I got a bit worried about how to to continue with the med as I know acidity gets worse during this phase.
            Since the pregnancy the intensity has once again gone slightly up, and so I do not want to quit on it. Also I had read in ur other posts that Nux Vomica is a good option so to control acidity if its really bad, hence I had posted a query about whether I should try that during pregnancy or avoid it?

            To summarise, currently I am taking Nat Phos, stopped arnica as the moderator on the abcHomeo site suggested, becoz of pregnancy.
            The GERD related symptoms have reduced as opposed what they were before I started this routine (much better than what I felt while taking PPI drugs, they did not help atall)
            Please advice, what should be my regimen now to help fite the problem, as it has become a big pain in my daily life.
            Thank you for the help.

              Nat Phos 6x is absolutely safe in use in spite of your pregnancy. I do not know how Nux Vomica will affect your pregnancy and it is best not to use it unless everything else fails.

              You can safely add Arnica 30c in the WD taken twice daily as it will help to return your Esophagus which is normally metastasized to resemble the gut due to the Hcl back to normal. If you suffered from any burning in your throat the Arnica is definitely indicated.

    Greetings Joe,

    I am writing to inform you that I have begun your prescribed treatment of nat phos 6x for my son. He is 12 weeks old and was diagnosed with silent reflux one week ago. He has been seeing a chiropractor to assist with this issue. I breastfeed and dissolve a tablet in expressed breast milk (which he greatly dislikes taking from a syringe and lets some dribble out.

    I have researched many of your posts though, and found your remedy differs occasionally. Sometimes you say 1 tablet, sometimes you say half. Sometimes the baby receives a teaspoon of arnica, sometimes you add nux vomica. I also see that the maximum amount of tablets allowed for the baby changes.

    So far I am taking 2 tablets 3 times a day, with a capful of wet dose of arnica. I tried a half tablet with my son, and saw no discernible differences. I gave him a full tablet and I am not sure of the outcome as he is asleep. However he has been asleep for longer than usual so this may have worked.

    What is the maximum number of tablets he can have a day? He feeds many times a day to soothe his throat so 1 after every feed would be excessive. And since his throat bothers him so, is there any way I can help him heal it faster? Thank you.

    • Joe says:

      “Xel” seem strange for a name. You address me as Joe (I am 85 years old). What is your given name and where do you live?

      The reason why my therapy to help babies suffering from GERD differs from time to time is because I pioneered in using Nat Phos 6x for Adults in the late nineties. Since that time I experimented with this remedy for Babies using just half tablet and discovered that it is far more effective and safer in comparison to the PPI drugs like Prevacid Nexium and others all of which have been found to be dangerous to adults in the long term and far more to babies. In spite of this fact the paediatricians all prescribe these dangerous drugs as a matter of routine.

      I am still in the process of experimenting with Nat Phos 6x to which I have added Nux Vomica 30c in the Wet dose if necessary as it reinforces the action of the NP 6x. I prefer not to overdose but can confidently inform you that a Full Tablet of NP 6x is absolutely safe for babies immediately after a feed, dissolved in milk. Do not use the Nux V till I tell you to use it which I shall do if the NP alone does not help.

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy that has proved to be very effective for Baby GERD is:

      Nat Phos 6x dose 1 tablet dissolved in milk given immediately after a feed.

      It is essential that you burp baby immediately after each feed.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby.You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily and Arnica 6c in the Wet dose taken twice daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

      Report progress in 24 hours and as often as you wish on this thread .

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Order the remedy in the Liquid pack in Alcohol, also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
      Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard at least 6 times before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
      Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this enhances the effect of the remedy on the user.

        Xel is a play off my last name which begins Cel and is generally easier for those to remember and pronounce than my real name Ajané and i saw that others were also using aliases here.

I generally like to address people formally but twice this week I have simply glanced at the given name and quickly used that and in this case probably because that is your user name here. I sincerely apologize Mr. De Livera. I live in the U.S.

        I understand your reasoning for differing remedies now. I shall follow your remedy. I do have one issue at this time. My son eats very often to soothe his throat, every half hour when he is awake. How much time between nat phos doses is recommended and what is the maximum amount of tablets a day I can give? At this point he is sometimes eating 15 minutes after a dose and I don’t know if this interferes with your remedy. The

          Interesting name you have! No offence was taken.

          You may not exceed 6 tablets Nat P in 24 hours.

          You will give him whole tablets during the first few feeds and taper it to half tablets in the evening. Nat Phos to be given immediately after a feed.

          You may have to also use Nux Vomica 30c in the Wet dose if he does not respond as expected. Give 2 doses daily.

          • xel says:

            I am still observing my son at this time, trying to decide how he is doing and whether or not to purchase nux vomica. His case is a little tougher because he did not spit up (silent reflux), as he would swallow acid back down and tended to be quiet unless he was really hurting. But his eating habits and sleep habits were greatly affected and he could not be put down because of his pain. I have missed some doses this weekend for myself so I want to make sure I evaluate with correct remedy before I decide.

            So far it does seem it is helping as I’ve heard far less swallowing and wet burps and he is going a lot further between feedings and is in general even more mellow. However his sleep is still off, though better. I am also considering whether or not dairy may be bothering him as well.

            So I am continuing to evaluate at this time. Thank you, I will report back for the sake of other mothers’ as well in a day or two.

            • Joe says:

              xel

              You do not have to give him the Nux V unless you find that the NP alone is not helping him.

              You mentioned dairy. Why dont you breast feed him?

          • xel says:

            I do breastfeed him, I meant that I am not completely sure if the dairy that I eat irritates him or not.

            It has been 3 days since I began giving him the doses. I have seen great improvement, though not a full cure. He is taking longer naps, going longer between feeds and is generally less fussy. Except that he has now become fussy at night for an hour or two, though I am not sure if that is due to a growth spurt or something else.

            A full cure may be impossible I am thinking depending on why he has the reflux. I may add the nux vomica only after I try cutting out dairy from my diet. Either way, I am pleased with the results so far as this remedy has nearly got his reflux under control.

            • Joe says:

              xel

              I do not think that the dairy you take will upset his digestive system. I believe that he lacks some essential chemical to fully digest his milk and the remedies I have prescribed will help to fill in the gap till his body takes over in a few weeks.

              Please be reassured that a FULL CURE IS POSSIBLE and will occur shortly.

              You can consider adding a Probiotic to introduce some good bacteria into his gut with advice from your pediatrician.

          • xel says:

            I actually began a probiotic about the same time as the remedy. I am still seeing slow improvement and am giving him the dose as needed.

            If you believe a full cure is possible, then I will too as I cannot deny I’ve seen his symptoms slowly recede over the past week. Perhaps it will just take his body a little more time to heal. Do you think I should add in the nux vomica then? I am very grateful for your assistance.

            • Joe says:

              xel

              You can give him the Nux Vomica which I feel is indicated at this stage as he should have normally responded in a week to the N Phos. His may be a stubborn case and if you had given him the PPI Drugs they usually make a bad situation infinitely worse and I have found that Nux V helps to cure the patient.

              The Probiotic should also help.

        • xel says:

          Hello again Joe. I finally received my nux vomica 30c in the liquid dose. I have researched but I’m not sure how to give this remedy. Do I make a wet dose and give 1 tsp directly to the baby before a feed?

          • Joe says:

            xel

            The Nux V took its own time to reach you and I wonder if it is needed now as you have observed “I have seen great improvement”

            Do let me know if you still feel that you must give it to him.

          • xel says:

            I hesitated to order it because of the improvement but decided to order it last week because I see need again. I did see great improvement as a whole, (he went from refluxing all the time and never napping to napping every hour or two) but he is still refluxing badly at times, especially at night. It’s my understanding that I take the arnica but the nux vomica goes to the baby?

            • Joe says:

              xel

              On the basis of your current report I believe that it is now time to give him Nux V 30c in the Wet dose twice daily for baby.

              You can give him half teaspoonful in between feeds but you will maintain the Nat Phos dose as usual.

    I wrote this post on abc homeopathy but someone directed me to your site to ask so here is my post from there. I just wanted your advice because you seem to have helped lots of babies and their concerned mommies. Thanks!
    Hi There-
    My 2 month old was just dignosed with reflux and was prescribed a compound liquid form of Prevacid. We have been giving it to him for a little over a week and he seems to nursing better and his weight is going up. My husband and I just really don’t want to give him medicine this early on if there is something we could do to take a nature approach. As I researched I came across this website and other responses Joe has replied to. I just wanted to make sure I knew exactly what to do before doing anything.
    So am I correct that I will give him 1/2 tablet of Hyland’s Natrum Phos 6x dissolved in expressed breastmilk after each feeding? (How much milk do I mix the tablet with?)
    As for me (since he is exclusively breast fed) I need to dissolve and drink 2 tablets of natrum phos 6x three times a day after meals and also Arnica 30c twice a day? I’m having trouble finding arnica in liquid dose I’m only seeing dissolvable tablets. Will those work? Can those be taken together in morning and night? How much Arnica? How long do you continue this remedy? Most people said their child was better in about 4 days. Do I stop then with the baby and continue myself or both stop?
    Also someone at the health food store recommended giving bifidobacterium powder in expressed milk to help with reflux because it’s a probiotic. What are your thoughts on this?
    Thank for in advance for answering my questions and guiding me to a natural approach.

    • Joe says:

      Blessed Family

      You have read and understood my therapy aka “Joepathy” precisely and you can consider yourself fortunate that you decided to contact me for your Baby’s GERD. All PPI drugs including Prevacid are known to medicine as being dangerous in use in the long term and you can type “Danger of PPI drugs” into Google to read all about it.

      I do not now prescribe half tablet of Nat Phos 6x as a full tablet is more effective and is also absolutely safe. It does not matter how much breast milk you use as all that is needed is to dissolve it to give it to baby. Even a teaspoonful of water will do.

      The idea behind your taking Nat Phos 6x is to pass the effect to baby through your B milk. You can mail order the Arnica 30 in the Liquid Dilution from

      Washington Homeopathics
      http://www.homeopathyworks.com
      1 800 336 1695

      You may use 6 pellets in a bottle of water till you get the L Dilution.

      Baby should respond to the NP almost instantly but you will continue to give him a dose for a few days after every feed and taper it off when you see that he is free of GERD.

      I have not recommended the Probiotic for an infant but cannot see any disadvantage in your doing so. I would prefer that you start with my therapy and give the Probiotic when you see how he has responded.

      Report progress in 48 hours.

    Hi Joe and thank you. I am suffering from diabetes, reflux, PVC’s, IBS, Fibromyalgia, Depression/Anxiety, High Blood Pressure and I am obese. I have absolutely no energy, no drive and do not sleep well because of the pain I am in from fibro. Right now I am experiencing the sensation of having a lump in my throat and some heartburn and would really love to get off of Prevacid of which I have been on for 14yrs (at least), or more. I’d love to get off of all of my meds which I will list for you, and start to feel better.
    Medications:
    Prevacid, Verapamil (for PVC’s and bl pressure), Hydrochlorot, Metformin and I take Alprazalam and liquid Carafate as needed along with an albuterol inhaler for my asthma (which is not bad and rarely need inhaler). I also use Cyclobenzaprine at times to help relax my muscles from the fibro pain. I am tired of feeling awful and struggling with my weight, not being able to sleep well and so on. I do not smoke or drink alcohol. My exercise and daily activities are very limited due to the chronic pain I have.
    If there is anything you can help me with, I would truly appreciate it. I don’t mind trying any natural supplements as long as they do not stimulate me like caffeine and get my PVC’s (Premature Ventricular Contractions) going out of control.
    Thank you so much for your time!

      How old are you and are you married with children?

      As you are aware your case is extremely complicated and I do not know where to begin.

      I shall start by prescribing for your GERD and the same remedy will help your Obesity.

      It is very likely that you suffer from Hyperacidity or Gastritis, aka GERD (Gastro Esophagal Reflux Disease) and I shall copy my default therapy that has helped hundreds of patients to overcome this disease for which doctors usually prescribe PPI (Proton Pump Inhibitor) drugs which are dangerous and can cause many other more serious problem when used in the long term.

      You will hopefully discover that my therapy aka “Joepathy” will help you within the hour after you have taken your first dose after a meal.

      The remedies you will order are as follows:

      Nat Phos 6x dose 3-4 tablets taken immediately after each of 2 meals.
      This remedy accelerates the passage of food down the gut and prevents the formation of acid which would otherwise reflux causing GERD.

      Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily.
      This remedy works to repair the damaged Esophagus which has metastasised to resemble the gut to deal with the Hcl refluxed into it causing severe distress. Arnica works with the Nat Phos to speedily cure the problem.

      Please observe the following simple rules:

      Do not eat large meals. Eat small meals but more often if you feel hungry. Do not drink more that a few sips of water after your meals. This is to prevent the further dilution of your gastric juice which can then reflux into your Esophagus which results in GERD.

      It is important that you do not go to bed for at least 2 hours after dinner as food will take about this time to digest and it is best to stay awake and upright to enable your food to digest before going to bed.

      No fatty food, alcohol, coffee, preserved meats like sausages, ham, bacon as they contain Saltpeter which will antidote the remedies listed immediately.

      If you suffer from a stomach ache or you feel your stomach puffing up before a meal during the day between meals, this is usually due to hunger pains, caused by your gastric juices attacking the inner lining and the wall of your stomach. The simple remedy is to eat some food like a biscuit or a banana between meals to keep the gastric juice away from digesting the stomach wall which results in a stomach ache which in some cases can be acute.

      You must drink at least 3 liters of liquids, preferably water daily and you must also exercise for at least half hour daily. It is important to sweat it out as this is all part of my therapy to overcome GERD.

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Order the remedy in a 5ml Liquid Alcohol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
      Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
      Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done every time before sipping a capful of the bottle twice daily.

      It is understood that the patient will stop all other drugs which s/he may be taking for this ailment.
      Do not use Coffee, Cola beverages, preserved foods like sausages, ham and bacon as they contain Saltpeter.

        Joe, I am 49 yrs old and my son is grown and married. I will stop the Prevacid and Liquid Carafate as soon as I get the prescribed supplements you spoke of. When you speak of preserved foods, does that mean lunchmeats as well? Also, if I am having a bad fibromyalgia day and am in severe pain, is alright for me to skip exercise? I cannot do any heavy or hard exercise at this time because of the crippling effects of the fibro but I can try and walk for a half hour. Would that be suitable and is it alright if I have to break it up in smaller increments as long as I get the total half hour of exercise in? Also, I just started a probiotic. Would you suggest I continue that or stop it?
        Thank you so much, I know I have a lot of health issues to deal with.

    Joe,

    My son is 3 weeks old and was recently diagnosed with GERD. His symptoms aren’t very severe as of yet but I am noticing they are getting worse each day. He spits up a small amount sometimes after eating, he has wet burps and winces as he swallows back the contents that came up, he gets congested as a result of the acid burning his nasal cavity and causing them to become inflamed. His throat sounds dry and he also makes a sound like he is trying to clear his throat. I ordered Hyland’s NatPhos 6x but am not sure if he is too little for this remedy to be effective or if his symptoms are not severe enough. I noticed that all of your prior infant GERD patients were 6 weeks or older, had trouble nursing, and screamed in pain. Please let me know your thoughts. Thank you for your time

      I note that you have already ordered Hyland’s Nat Phos 6x and you can also add Arnica 30c and Nux Vomica 30c, both in the Liquid Dilution which we can use if the NPhos alone does not help him in a couple of days.

        I found your website through research online about GERD. I started my son on the NPos 6x 2 days ago following the remedy instructions you have posted numerous times for other patients. I gave him 1 tablet dissolved in 5ML milk after each feed for 5 feeds, I am breastfeeding only. It was difficult to tell whether or not the pills were working because as I stated before he does not spit up a lot after feedings. He seemed his usual self as far as eating and sleeping habits. He still woke up with bad congestion at night, which is a result of acid coming up in his nasal cavity. The next 24 hours (yesterday) I again gave him 1 tablet after each feed for his 12, 3, 6, and 9 eating. He was extremely fussy after 9, crying and screaming, gagging and I could hear his nasal congestion which was unusual since he has only been congested late at night. I again gave him another full tablet and did not see any improvement in his behavior. He finally fell asleep two hours later after I nursed him and did not give him NatPhos. He awoke numerous times last night with bad dry mouth and congestion which I believe is making it hard for him to stay asleep. This morning I gave him 1 tablet after his morning feed and although he is sleeping, he keeps waking up congested and with a dry mouth. I looked at the website that you recommend for purchasing Nux Vomica 30c but cannot find the exact remedy “Nux Vomica” they have Nux Moschata and Nux Moschata High Potency. The same is true for Arnica 30c, the website only has Arnica Montana and Arnica Montana – Radix.

        • Joe says:

          nicoleq08

          It is very early to program the future strategy for your baby as you have only used Nat Phos 6x for 3 days. You reported that he does seem to reflux in his sleep and this indicates that Nux Vomica 30c in indicated and you will get it in the Liquid Dilution.
          You cannot mistake Nux Vomica for the other Nux varieties.
          You will not give him Arnica. This is only for you. And not the A Radix.

              nicoleq08

              I note that you have not reported how baby has responded to my therapy since you last reported on September 20 when you had used Nat Phos for just 3 days.

              As the mother I would expect you to have the courtesy of reporting how your baby responded during this past fortnight as I too as the consultant, am interested to know whether baby has responded positively or otherwise.

              I also note that you have not got the Nux Vomica 30c and cannot understand the reason why you have not done so as I had prescribed it on 9/21.

              I can only presume that you are not really interested in my therapy and would suggest that you go back to your pediatrician to treat your baby.

          • nicoleq08 says:

            Joe I apologize for not having reported my son’s response. I had stopped giving him the NP due to personal issues. Please be assured that I believe and trust in your Joepathy for GERD and now want to move forward with adding NuxVomica to my son’s treatment. I want to help relieve my son from his pain, especially if it can be done without using harmful PPI medications. I will order the NV30c and wait for your administering instructions.

            • Joe says:

              nicoleq08

              Please clarify:
              “I had stopped giving him the NP due to personal issues.”

              You cannot give baby Nux Vomica 30 alone as it is designed to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x which works by accelerating the digestive process while the Nux helps the milk to go down.

              I can only prescribe the remedy for your baby and it is up to the patient to use it or do otherwise.

          • nicoleq08 says:

            There were some personal family problems that came up. I appreciate your understanding. I have the NatPhos 6x tablets and will order the NuxVomica to help reinforce it if you deem it necessary. I think I will need the NV as you stated prior due to my son refluxing in the night and causing his congestion and gagging. I do greatly appreciate you taking your personal time to help me with this treatment

      You should not overtax your body to conform to my advice in exercise. You must understand that exercise is essential to repair the damage to your body caused by your Fibromyalgia for which there is no known drug to cure this condition as medicine is still guessing at the reason.

      I am interested in your case as my therapy aka “Joepathy” has worked miracles in helping 2 conditions which were never successfully treated by Homeopathy:
      DIABETES
      OBESITY
      I have used standard remedies to treat both conditions and as long as you are willing to use my therapy which I shall prescribe on an experimental basis, there is a faint change that we can overcome your condition too.

      I would like to have a detailed record of how you first noticed Fibro and how your doctors treated it.

      A Probiotic is OK

        I understand, no processed meats. I will definitely do my best to exercise, even if it’s in small intervals. Some days it’s all I can do to get out of bed with help from my husband. I will follow your advice wholeheartedly Joe.

        I first noticed fibro two yrs ago when I started having more and more pain in my neck, shoulders and back. I started waking up in terrible pain and could barely turn over. At least once a month my husband would have to help me because I could not get out of bed on my own. I started talking to a friend who had it and then researched it. At that same time, I started having much more anxiety and had to go on Alprazolam daily, for a year, until it eased up. During that first year I started feeling way more fatigued, I started noticing my muscles were becoming weak and it was a chore to go up stairs whether it be two or twenty. During this time, when all of this was first starting to take place, I was under a lot of stress and emotional turmoil. I feel the stress and emotional things I was going through added to the onset, but I could be wrong. My Dr at the time was the first to say she felt I had fibro but wanted to keep an eye on me. So she monitored my progress and health issues during that first yr. Then I basically just fell apart as things progressed and my Dr quit taking insurance so I had to leave her. I didn’t go to any Dr’s for the better part of a year and then I went to my new Dr this past January. I told her in detail of all of my symptoms : chronic pain, muscle stiffness, body aches, weakness, fatigue, brain fog, vision problems, insomnia, sciatica, IBS, anxiety and severe depression. She acknowledged the depression, IBS, and anxiety and treated them with depression meds, alprazolam and nothing for the IBS other than Imodium when it got bad. She would not and still does not acknowledge that fibro is a real disease and wants to blame all the other issues on sleep apnea. I don’t believe I have sleep apnea because my body can go for hours and hours without sleep and often does from the insomnia. At this time, the Dr I want to see, who specializes in fibro, does not take insurance and I am trying to save up the money to see him. He is expensive so it’s not something I can rush right out and do.
        So, I deal with my pain, use hot baths, get in the swimming pool when I can, use Sombra (topical cream) that can help the pain, and when I can’t stand it any longer, I take a cyclobenzaprine and either acetaminophen or ibuprofen. ( never more than a few times a month so as not to upset my stomach). I do put Epsom salts and food grade hydrogen peroxide (35% mixed with distilled water) in my hot baths and it does help ease the pain and stiffness for a while. I use 1oz of the peroxide to 11oz of distilled and double the batch for one bath. My husband gives me massages which also helps ease the pain but it’s only temporary. I went from working and enjoying life to being laid up in my home, depending on my husband for most things and on a good day, I can stand to be up on my feet for a few minutes, maybe make something to eat, and wash up. Each and every thing I do is a major chore and wipes me out. If I do too much I will be laid up in pain with severe fatigue for anywhere from a day to a week. My son visited in June and just sitting and playing games with them for a few hrs a day and moving around a bit more, had me laid up for 4 solid days. I was in terrible pain and would sleep for four hours and be up for one, sleep for four, up for one and so on.

        I hope this helps you Joe. I’d be happy to speak with you if you would like more information, or share it here. Whatever works best for you. I am just thrilled someone is listening to me and willing to start somewhere in trying to help me. My life at this point, is not a life at all.
        Thank you, Monica

          Yours is another very complicated case and I am currently treating another patient who is equally complicated Heda Winter whose problems are roughly similar to yours. She too has also been informed by her doctor that her insurance will not pay for her consultation and perhaps drugs and I do wonder what is happening in your country even after the Obama Healthcare Bill. You do pay for Health Insurance and the least that can be expected is that this Insurance pays for your treatment.

          You suffer from
          FIBROMYALGIA
          GERD
          HYPERTENSION
          DIABETES
          ASTHMA
          OBESITY

          All I can do is to try to help you and hope that my therapy will serve to reduce your suffering. You will please keep me informed of your progress often as I get an email alert the moment you post on my Website.

          I have already prescribed for your GERD and you will report your response. You will please indicate which other problem you would like me to prescribe next depending on urgency.

          List all the drugs you are taking currently.

          • Monica64 says:

            Joe, I will definitely keep you posted often as to my progress and how I am feeling. I do have a question. The Nat Phos will be here later today. Would you like me to stop the Prevacid and start the Nat Phos even though I won’t have the Arnica until next week? I am more than happy to do whatever you suggest.

            I would say since my obesity will hopefully start to change with your help for the Gerd, that my next concern to work on would be my Diabetes. It is my biggest concern aside from my stomach issues and obesity. So please do let me know when you feel it is time, any suggestions you may have to help with the Diabetes. I have to be careful of medications/supplement that can cause stomach issues of course and gas/bloating or diarrhea. The IBS (irritable bowel syndrome) can become much worse.

            I currently take:
            Prevacid (today is the last day)
            Liquid Carafate as needed for stomach
            Hydrochlorot (for bl pressure and water retention)
            Verapamil ER for PVC’s and blood pressure
            Metformin ER for Diabetes
            Alprazolam (as needed for anxiety)
            Albuterol Inhaler (as needed for asthma) which is rare
            Align Probiotic
            Gaviscon or Rolaids for upset stomach
            Cyclobenzaprine (a few times a month for fibro)
            Acetominiphen or Ibuprofen for pain (no more than 8 times a month)

            I hope this helps! I know it’s a lot.

              I shall be very interested to have your report of your response to the Nat Phos 6x and you can take 4 tablets after every meal to observe how it will help you to overcome your GERD. I do not know if you have also ordered Nux Vomica 30 which will be needed if the Nat Phos alone is not sufficient to replace the Prevacid you have been taking up to today.

              You will of course STOP all the drugs you are taking for your GERD when you start on my therapy.

              Since you want me to prescribe for your Diabetes I shall copy below my default therapy aka “Joepathy” which many Diabetics are using today to control their BS levels.

              The remedy I have prescribed is Arnica 6x in the Wet dose which is taken twice daily.

              Mag Phos 6x dose 2 tablets taken thrice daily have also helped to reduce BS levels and you can add this to your daily dosage.

              Please note that you will most likely notice a dip in your BS level within 24 hours of starting my therapy and you will then have to reduce your dosage of either Metformin or of Insulin as it must be maintained around 110.

              Type I patients have confirmed that they discovered their BS levels were reduced by about 20% within a day of their starting on this therapy.

              Type II patients will also have to monitor their BS levels on a daily basis to ensure that their BS is stabilized at around 110 and they will reduce the dosage of the drugs that they are using daily to maintain this level. The Arnica 6c and the Mag Phos 6x are taken as prescribed.

              The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

              Order the remedy in the Liquid pack in Alcohol, also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
              Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
              Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
              Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard at least 6 times before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
              Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this enhances the effect of the remedy on the user.

              Cinnamon powder is also useful to reduce BS levels and a quarter teaspoonful can be taken brewed as a tea twice daily. Okra or Bandakka which grows in the tropics also helps to reduce BS levels. Okra is used by cutting up a tender pod and inserting it into a glass of water which is left overnight and the water is drunk on an empty stomach the morning after.
              Turmeric has also been discovered to help reduce BS levels and can be used in a similar manner to the Cinnamon.

              Do not use Coffee, Cola beverages, preserved foods like sausages, ham and bacon as they contain Saltpeter.

              You will not take any drugs when you start my therapy.

  17. Monica64 says:

    Hi Joe,
    Thank you again for all of your advice. I am ordering the necessary supplements now. Just so you know I did not have diabetes until I was in my 40’s. I had not ordered the Nux Vomica 30 yet as I was no aware. I am ordering it now with the others you suggested. I found this on Amazon which offers much quicker, cheaper shipping and I just want to be sure this is the correct one you speak of for the Arnica 6x: Arnica 6X 1.7 oz Homeopathic Medicine Liquid (OTC) Active Ingredients: Arnica montana (N) 6X. Inactive Ingredients: Alcohol 18% v/v.
    I ordered the Arnica 30c yesterday from the website you suggested but it won’t be here until next Wednesday.
    Just to be clear, I can stop the Prevacid and chewable Rolaids or Gaviscon once I have the Nat Phos 6 and the Nux Vomica30? I do not need to wait for the Arnica30c to start?
    I want to be sure I have everything straight so, for the Gerd I will be taking as follows:
    Nat Phos 6x 3-4 tabs after each of 2 meals.
    Arnica 30c wet dose taken 2 times daily (any specific time of day?)
    and Nux Vomica 30 if needed (any time of day?)

    For the Diabetes I would take:
    Arnica 6x in the wet dose 2 times a day
    Mag Phos 6x 2 tabs 3 times a day
    Check BS and reduce Metformin as needed.
    Are there specific times a day to take each?

    Also, I will then be taking both Arnica 6x and Arnica 30c in the wet dose each day?

    I understand about the cinnamon and I have tried that. After several days of eating in oatmeal and mixed in my tea, it really hurt my stomach. Spices and spicy things can really set my stomach off. I think for now, I should not try the cinnamon or turmeric. But thank you for the suggestions.

    I will wait to hear back from you to be sure I am very clear and understanding everything I am to take and that the Arnica 6x I have found on Amazon is alright.
    Thank you!

    • Joe says:

      Monica64

      The lower potency of any Homeopathic remedy will prevail over the higher. The Arn 30 is best for your GERD and can also help with your Diabetes and you may therefore not order the Arnica 6x.

      I am copying below your statements with my comments in upper case.

      I want to be sure I have everything straight so, for the Gerd I will be taking as follows:
      Nat Phos 6x 3-4 tabs after each of 2 meals.
      MAKE IT EACH OF 3 MEALS
      Arnica 30c wet dose taken 2 times daily (any specific time of day?)
      INCREASE DOSAGE TO 3 TIMES DAILY
      and Nux Vomica 30 if needed (any time of day?)
      HOLD THE NV 30 TILL WE OBSERVE HOW THE NAT PHOS AND ARNICA HELP YOUR GERD.

      For the Diabetes I would take:
      Arnica 6x in the wet dose 2 times a day
      OMIT ARN 6X
      Mag Phos 6x 2 tabs 3 times a day
      OK
      Check BS and reduce Metformin as needed.
      OK
      Are there specific times a day to take each?
      LEAVE HALF HOUR BETWEEN REMEDIES EXCEPT THE NAT PHOS WHICH CAN BE USED ANYTIME.

      Also, I will then be taking both Arnica 6x and Arnica 30c in the wet dose each day?
      SEE ABOVE

      I understand about the cinnamon and I have tried that.
      CINNAMON IN THE DOSAGE INDICATED CANNOT HURT YOU. IT IS LIKELY THAT YOU WERE TAKING AN OVERDOSE.
      After several days of eating in oatmeal and mixed in my tea, it really hurt my stomach. Spices and spicy things can really set my stomach off. I think for now, I should not try the cinnamon or turmeric. But thank you for the suggestions.

      YOU WILL STOP ALL DRUGS YOU ARE CURRENTLY TAKING FOR YOUR GERD.

      • Monica64 says:

        Joe,
        Thank you for your response and being very clear on the supplements. I understand I am to take them as follows:
        Nat Phos6x 3-4 tabs after each of 3 meals.
        Arn 30c wet dose – 3 times daily
        Hold NV till we see how others do.
        Omit Arn 6x
        Mag Phos 6x – 2 tabs 3 times daily
        Check BS and reduce Metformin as needed
        Leave half hour between remedies except Nat Phos which can
        be used anytime.
        Try 1/4 teaspoon of Cinn. powder brewed as a tea twice daily
        as well as soaking tender pod of Okra in water overnight and drinking in the morning on empty stomach.
        Absolutely no drugs for Gerd to be taken once I start this protocol.
        No Prevacid, Carafate, Rolaids, Gaviscon etc.
        I believe I am clear on this and again, thank you for helping me.

        Just to be sure I am understanding 100% on the no preserved meats, does that mean I also cannot have frozen breaded fish sticks or frozen breaded chicken breast patties? Or would those be considered safe? I often find with my pain and fatigue that these easy, quick foods are what I can handle making.

        Thank you again Joe for all of your help. Once I have all the remedies here, sometime later next week, I will start them and keep you updated regularly.

      Preserved meats and perhaps also preserved fish may have SALTPETER as the preservative.

      Saltpeter antidotes all Homeopathic remedies instantly.

      Take it from there.

    Hi,

    I’m reporting back in on my 2 month olds progress with GERD. We started your remedy a week ago on Tuesday cutting out the medication the doctor prescribed. I am sorry I didn’t report sooner as you asked but my grandmother passed away so I was busy out of town dealing with our lose but contined using your remedy all the while. So for the last week I’ve given him 1/2 tablet of Nat Phos after every feeding and he usually nurses 9-10 times a day so he ends up getting 4.5 to 5 tablets a day. Since being on this he still seems squirmy at the breast while nursing at times and still spits up lots after each feeding. He is sleeping longer at night which has been nice for this tired momma but during the day he only goes about 2.5-3 hours from start to start of feedings and at evenings he wants to cluster feed every 1.5-2 hours till about his 10pm feeding then he starts sleeping well. I am burping him well after each feeding and since he was spitting so much up I’ve started waiting about 10-15 minutes after each feeding before giving him Nat Phos in hopes he wouldn’t just spit it up but even then as soon as I give it to him he spits up right away. I am keeping him elevated after each feeding as well. A plus is that I weighed him and after week on this method with all the spitting up he still gained a strong amount of weight an ounce a day (which he was a slow weight gainer at first so we monitor that closely but he’s been going great).
    I’m sorry again it has taken me awhile to report in to state our progress and ask you for any suggestions. What should I do now not seeing a change in his GERD? Should I give him a whole tablet just during 5 of the day feedings and not worry about after every feeding like the night and early early morning feedings? Would you suggest anything else or just keep this up? He is such a happy spitter so can make it harder to recognize his discomfort. I have been very faithful in giving him his dose after every feeding but I’ve not been so good myself. Due to the lack of sleep and being emotionally drained when taking those 3 times a day (2 tablets) he acted like my milk tasted different and I had to continue to relatch him. I didn’t know if Nat Phos could make milk taste different or cause you to dry up a little in your production. I nursed my older child till they were 1 and plan to do the same. He is doing better about not coming off breast during feedings due to discomfort (so I guess he could have been sensing how emotional this time was for me) but that’s with me taking nothing. Sorry I know that’s lots of inform but I would rather tell you too much then not enough information so I could get your best advice to where to go from here. Thank you so much for your help and advice.

    My son is 4 months old and 14.2 lbs. To give a little history on him he was born 8 days early with a vacuum assisted delivery at 7.1 lbs. From day 3 on he has had feeding/tummy troubles. He would scream immediately after breastfeeding like he was in pain. He cried all the time even when not eating. We could never lay him down he had to sleep in our arms and he spit up a lot.. He was ultimately diagnosed with a cows milk protein allergy/ sensitivity and colic. I switched to soy formula while going on a strict no dairy diet for 3 weeks and ultimately pumping didn’t keep my supply up and I stopped lactating. He began to not do well on soy so got put on a hypoallergenic formula. He did well on this for a week or 2 then began projectile vomiting and pain. He was diagnosed with reflux and put on Zantac at 2 months. He did well on this for 1 month then Reflux came back very bad. We began thickening his formula with rice cereal and he did well for 3 weeks now isn’t doing well again. He is constantly irritable and fussy, only naps 2-2.5 hours total a day broken into little cat naps, is now waking up every 45 mins- 2 hours at night whereas he used to only wake up 2x, arches his back in pain or draws knees up to chest, sounds gurgly and congested all the time although lung sounds are clear, is hysterical when in infant car seat in car, has to be swaddled to calm him down, sometimes refuses bottle, grunts a lot and gets hiccups a lot. His spit up is minimal but I believe he’s having silent reflux and is in pain so he’s fussy and won’t sleep. I need help!!!! He has happy moments but they are far and few between lately. I’ve tried hylands colic tabs, gas drops, and Tylenol. Also I might add we have to bounce around to get him to sleep with white noise playing, rocking no longer works. Is nat phos 6x also what I need to do after each feeding? Will nat phos 6c work?

    • Joe says:

      lauren35

      You will give baby a tablet of Nat Phos 6x (NOT 6c) after every feed dissolved in milk and you should hopefully discover that his problem with his digestion will settle down.

      You will STOP all other drugs and you will report his response in 24 hours or earlier if he settles down.

      You will also get Nux Vomica 30c in the liquid Alcohol pack but you will not use it till I instruct you to do so later if baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone.

      Where do you live and how did you discover my Website?

  21. Erica says:

    Hi Joe,

    After reading many of the threads above I have started giving my daughter your default dose for reflux, in the hope that it can be cured. To give you a bit of my daughters’s history, she was diagnosed as having mild reflux at about 10 weeks old (she is now almost 14 weeks). Her symptoms included frequent spilling (not just immediately after a feed, but all the time), wheezing/congested breathing, discomfort lying on her back or in any reclined position, rejecting the breast when feeding (she is exclusively breast fed) and crying as if in pain while feeding, arching her back, and constant unsettledness and irritability. Her sleep is also affected sometimes, and her weight gain was decreased due to her refusing to feed and constant spilling. She was prescribed to take infant Gaviscon after feeding three times a day, which helps the reflux and this improved her weight gain, but it makes her constipated. This appears to be causing her increasing discomfit after several weeks of taking the Gaviscon, so I don’t feel it is a good ongoing solution for us.

    For the last 5 days I have been giving her a whole tablet of Nat Phos 6x dissolved in a teaspoon of water after each feed (up to 5 doses a day maximum). And I have been taking 2 tablets of the Nat Phos 6x after meals three times a day, and the wet dose of Arnica 30c twice a day. We stopped giving her the Gaviscon when we started the Nat Phos treatment, and it has taken a few days to work its way out of her system, but she is now not suffering from any constipation after about 4 days. However, today a lot of her reflux symptoms have started to come back. She has been spilling more again for a couple of days (without any noticable discomfort when she spills), but today she has started refusing the breast again, and been much more irritable. Because of this I am tempted to give her some Gaviscon again to ease her discomfort, but before I do so I thought I should ask you for your advice on how we can proceed? I have seen in some cases you have advised to add a wet dose of Nux Vomica to the treatment if the Nat Phos is not helping alone. Is this something we should try now, or should we wait a couple more days to see if there is any improvement from the Nat Phos?

    I look forward to your response, and very much appreciate your time.

    Kind regards,
    Erica

      I saw your post coming in and hasten to respond.

      It is indeed very satisfying for me to note that the data I have posted on my Website has been read by you and that you have used the therapy I have formulated even without waiting for me to advice you.

      Since you have discovered that Nat Phos 6x alone is not sufficient to help baby you will now add Nux Vomica 30c in the Wet dose given twice daily and should hopefully discover that her GERD will be stabilised.

      Please post her response in a few days.

      • Erica says:

        Hi Joe,

        I added the wet dose of Nux Vomica 30c to my daughter’s treatment almost a full three days ago now, and her reflux does seem to be improved, if not almost gone. She is still spilling a bit at times, but it doesn’t appear to bother her and it is much less than when her reflux was at its worst. This little bit of spilling, and the odd bout of hiccups, are the only sign of any reflux that she has left. She is very settled and happy again, sleeping well and feeding well too. It’s so wonderful to see her feeling better – thanks to your treatment!

        What I am unsure of now is how long we need to keep treating her for? Do I need to wait until she stops spilling before we reduce the dose? Or can we reduce it now that we have seen some improvement? Also, do we continue to use the Nux Vomica wet dose when we start to reduce the Nat Phos? And do I continue to take the same dose of Nat Phos and Arnica wet dose until we have finished treating her or do I reduce those treatments too?

        Sorry to ask so many questions, I do really appreciate your time – it has made such a difference for us and our baby.

          Hi Joe,

          I’m not sure if you have read my previous reply to report our progress since we added the wet dose of Nux Vomica 30c to my daughter’s treatment?

          As She us so much better since we added the Nux Vomica 4 days ago, I started to reduce the Nat Phos dosage to just half a tablet after each feed to see if there was any change. I hope this was the right thing to do? Can you please confirm or advise if I should still be giving her a full tablet after every feed?

          I have not made any other changes to the treatment yet, as I am awaiting your advice on whether we need to continue with the Nux Vomica, and the Arnica and Nat Phos that I am taking?

          I look forward to hearing your response.

            You did right by reducing the Nat Phos to half tablet and as I expected her own digestive system seems to have taken over with her GERD stabilized.

            You may also stop the Nux V and observe if she can exist with just half tablet of Nat P which is a very safe remedy to be used. Nux V is not in the same category and we will observe if she can do without it and you will only give her just half tablet of Nat P.

    • Joe says:

      lauren35

      I presume that you wished to convey that you gave Nat Phos 6x to your baby but that it did not help him as per your statement:

      “Last night was first night using it and he didn’t sleep at all. Maybe 4 hrs total of sleep and I don’t see a response to reflux symptoms yet.”

      Did you give him a FULL tablet or HALF?

      If it was half a tablet you should increase the next dose to a FULL tablet when hopefully you should have a better resonse.

      Report progress.

      For the record, I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD below:

      The remedy that has proved to be very effective for Baby GERD is:

      Nat Phos 6x dose 1 tablet dissolved in milk given immediately after a feed.

      It is essential that you burp baby immediately after each feed.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby.You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      You will also take Arnica 30c which you will order in the Liquid Dilution as per instructions below. Please note that the Arnica is NOT for baby.
      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily and Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.
      Report progress in 24 hours and as often as you wish on this thread .

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Order the remedy in the Liquid pack in Alcohol, also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
      Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard at least 6 times before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
      Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this enhances the effect of the remedy on the user.

    Joe, before I start me Joetherapy tomorrow, I wanted to know your thoughts on using DGL? I have used it this week a few times and I know you clearly stated to stop using all medicines for Gerd when I start your treatment. So, I wanted to check and see if it is safe to continue it or should it be stopped as well? Thank you for your time Joe. I really appreciate it.

      “I wanted to know your thoughts on using DGL?”

      What is DGL?

      • Monica64 says:

        Sorry Joe. I should have been more clear on that. It is Deglycyrrhizinated Licorice and here is a great article on it if you are interested:

          I have found that I have been spending a lot of time patiently responding to your multitude of questions and was surprised to note that you have NOT started to use my therapy up to now.

          Please report your response in a week after you have started on my therapy as I cannot possibly waste any more time on your case.

          • Monica64 says:

            I am sorry you feel that way Joe and I apologize for asking so many questions. With fibromyalgia comes severe brain fog so it makes it hard for me to think clearly, which is why I ask questions. As I stated a few days ago, I was waiting to receive all the remedies you stated I should take. They did not all arrive until today, so I was not able to start them. I will be doing so tomorrow. Again, please accept my apologies.

            • Joe says:

              I had forgotten about your Fibromyalgia which can be the reason for your insecurity which lead to your constant questions and accept your apology.

    Hi,
    I’m so sorry to bother you again but wondered if you could advise me. I wrote a note on Monday and haven’t seen a response. I know you are busy or might have not seen it so I’m posting it again. But after reading what you’ve postd the last few days I’m going to bump him up to a whole tablet for only 5 of his feedings (so ths means 4 of his feedings he won’t get any) and go get Nux Vomica but hold off till you advise me that I should start. I really do appreciate your time and advice on this situation. Below is the post I wrote earlier if you could answer a few of my questions. Thank you so much!!!

    Hi,

    I’m reporting back in on my 2 month olds progress with GERD. We started your remedy a week ago on Tuesday cutting out the medication the doctor prescribed. I am sorry I didn’t report sooner as you asked but my grandmother passed away so I was busy out of town dealing with our lose but contined using your remedy all the while. So for the last week I’ve given him 1/2 tablet of Nat Phos after every feeding and he usually nurses 9-10 times a day so he ends up getting 4.5 to 5 tablets a day. Since being on this he still seems squirmy at the breast while nursing at times and still spits up lots after each feeding. He is sleeping longer at night which has been nice for this tired momma but during the day he only goes about 2.5-3 hours from start to start of feedings and at evenings he wants to cluster feed every 1.5-2 hours till about his 10pm feeding then he starts sleeping well. I am burping him well after each feeding and since he was spitting so much up I’ve started waiting about 10-15 minutes after each feeding before giving him Nat Phos in hopes he wouldn’t just spit it up but even then as soon as I give it to him he spits up right away. I am keeping him elevated after each feeding as well. A plus is that I weighed him and after week on this method with all the spitting up he still gained a strong amount of weight an ounce a day (which he was a slow weight gainer at first so we monitor that closely but he’s been going great).
    I’m sorry again it has taken me awhile to report in to state our progress and ask you for any suggestions. What should I do now not seeing a change in his GERD? Should I give him a whole tablet just during 5 of the day feedings and not worry about after every feeding like the night and early early morning feedings? Would you suggest anything else or just keep this up? He is such a happy spitter so can make it harder to recognize his discomfort. I have been very faithful in giving him his dose after every feeding but I’ve not been so good myself. Due to the lack of sleep and being emotionally drained when taking those 3 times a day (2 tablets) he acted like my milk tasted different and I had to continue to relatch him. I didn’t know if Nat Phos could make milk taste different or cause you to dry up a little in your production. I nursed my older child till they were 1 and plan to do the same. He is doing better about not coming off breast during feedings due to discomfort (so I guess he could have been sensing how emotional this time was for me) but that’s with me taking nothing. Sorry I know that’s lots of inform but I would rather tell you too much then not enough information so I could get your best advice to where to go from here. Thank you so much for your help and advice.

    • Joe says:

      Blessed Family

      Thank you for your reminder and my apologies that I did not respond till I saw it now.

      I believe that the real reason for your baby’s reflux is due to your NOT giving him the Nat Phos 6x immediately after a feed. You stated that you give it to him 15 minutes after a feed and it is during this time that the acid works to reject your milk which he then proceeds to eject.

      Feel free to give him a full tablet and I am confident that his reflux will cease. When this occurs, as I hope it will, you can then taper off the dosage to half tablet and you should soon discover that he will not need any medication to digest his feeds which will not be so often as he will be taking in more milk and less often which will enable you to have more sleep.

      Nat Phos 6x cannot be compared to the PPI drugs that doctors prescribe even though they are fully aware that these drugs have been accepted as being dangerous for adults but they do still prescribe them for babies. Shocking ! Suggest you Google “The danger of using PPI drugs”

      Report his response in 24 hours. Do not hesitate to remind me again if I do not respond in a few hours.

    Dear Joe,

    I would appreciate it, if you could help me with my reflux/gerd. I am 43 years old, overweight and I am on generic Prilosec. I am working on eating healthier and working out at the gym to lose the weight I need to but I really want to be able to quit taking the Prilosec. I do suffer from Sleep Apnea as well, but I have a CPAP machine for that. Aside from the Prilosec, the only other thing I take for my reflux/gerd is a product called
    Deglycyrrhizinated Licorice. I chew one tablet a half hour before each of two meals. I do not have any other health issues. Please let me know your thoughts on how to help with my reflux so I can discontinue the Prilosec. Thank you in advance for your time. Scott

    • Joe says:

      Scott70

      It is very likely that you suffer from Hyperacidity or Gastritis, aka GERD (Gastro Esophagal Reflux Disease) and I shall copy my default therapy that has helped hundreds of patients to overcome this disease for which doctors usually prescribe PPI (Proton Pump Inhibitor) drugs which are dangerous and can cause many other more serious problem when used in the long term.

      You will hopefully discover that my therapy aka “Joepathy” will help you within the hour after you have taken your first dose after a meal.

      The remedies you will order are as follows:

      Nat Phos 6x dose 3-4 tablets taken immediately after each of 2 meals.
      This remedy accelerates the passage of food down the gut and prevents the formation of acid which would otherwise reflux causing GERD.

      Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily.
      This remedy works to repair the damaged Esophagus which has metastasised to resemble the gut to deal with the Hcl refluxed into it causing severe distress. Arnica works with the Nat Phos to speedily cure the problem.

      Please observe the following simple rules:

      Do not eat large meals. Eat small meals but more often if you feel hungry. Do not drink more that a few sips of water after your meals. This is to prevent the further dilution of your gastric juice which can then reflux into your Esophagus which results in GERD.

      It is important that you do not go to bed for at least 2 hours after dinner as food will take about this time to digest and it is best to stay awake and upright to enable your food to digest before going to bed.

      No fatty food, alcohol, coffee, preserved meats like sausages, ham, bacon as they contain Saltpeter which will antidote the remedies listed immediately.

      If you suffer from a stomach ache or you feel your stomach puffing up before a meal during the day between meals, this is usually due to hunger pains, caused by your gastric juices attacking the inner lining and the wall of your stomach. The simple remedy is to eat some food like a biscuit or a banana between meals to keep the gastric juice away from digesting the stomach wall which results in a stomach ache which in some cases can be acute.

      You must drink at least 3 liters of liquids, preferably water daily and you must also exercise for at least half hour daily. It is important to sweat it out as this is all part of my therapy to overcome GERD.

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Order the remedy in a 5ml Liquid Alcohol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
      Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
      Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done every time before sipping a capful of the bottle twice daily.

      It is understood that the patient will stop all other drugs which s/he may be taking for this ailment.
      Do not use Coffee, Cola beverages, preserved foods like sausages, ham and bacon as they contain Saltpeter.

      • Scott70 says:

        Thank you Joe for your help. I had prepared by reading your posts and purchased what I had hoped I would need. I started your therapy yesterday and have not taken any of my previous medications for gerd. I am eating smaller, healthy meals and drinking the water you recommend. I was wondering, if the heartburn gets over powering at any point, as it did earlier today, if I could drink some baking soda water? I know it will take time on your therapy to heal and feel good again and I am more than happy to wait. I was just in hopes the baking soda would be alright if the acid gets to be too much. My stomach has been on fire all day. Thank you!

        • Joe says:

          Scott70

          I believe that your GERD is CHRONIC and I usually add Nux Vomica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily for patients like you. Please follow the protocol you have already used to make the Arnica WD and make the Nux V WD in the same manner.

          You will NOT drink Baking Soda as it will antidote ALL the Homeopathy.

          You will discover that Nux V will be far more effective than the Baking Soda.

  27. Monica64 says:

    Joe, I started your therapy today with the Arnica 30c wet solution 3x a day, Nat Phos 6x – 4 tabs 3x a day for my Gerd. (and Mag Phos for diabetes). I did not take any medications I had been using for Gerd (Prevacid or Rolaids) and I followed all of your instructions. I am having severe heartburn tonight. It is coming up my throat and every time I belch acid comes up my throat. I feel very near to throwing up stomach acid. I have tried the Nux Vomica 4 tabs under the tongue with no relief. I am aware it will take time to heal after being on PPI’s since 1999. Can you please advice what to do in this situation?
    Thank you so much.

    • Joe says:

      Monica64

      You state that you have used my therapy for just ONE DAY and you cannot possibly expect to be cured overnight. Your case is perhaps the most complicated that I have ever encountered and you must be patient and use my GERD therapy to observe if there is some way you can STOP the drugs you are using for your GERD which have poisoned and are poisoning your system thereby disposing you to so many other ailments.

      You may increase the number of tablets to 6 after every meal to see if this helps with the Nux Vomica also taken twice daily in the Wet dose.

      You will report your progress often to keep me advised of your response to my therapy.

      • Monica64 says:

        Joe, i do recognize this will take quite some time to reverse these issues. I was just concerned because the acid reflux is so bad this evening and the burning is making my voice hoarse, which is why I wrote. I do have the nux vomica 30x in pill form. Do I need to get a different type as I was not aware this was to be taken in a wet dose. I do take the arnica in wet dose. (Please excuse my confusion from the fibro fog) I understand I will up the nat phos 6x from 4 to 6 tabs after each of 3 meals. Please advise on the nux vomica. Thank you for your time Joe, I sincerely appreciate all of your help and patience. I will keep you updated regularly.

        • Joe says:

          Monica64

          ” I do have the nux vomica 30x in pill form.

          I prescribed Nux Vomica 30c in the Liquid Dilution to be taken twice daily.
          You CANNOT take the liberty of substituting NV 6c with NV 6x.
          This can be onsidered as DANGEROUS.

          • Monica64 says:

            Thank you for the correction. I will purchase the NV 30c liquid dilution and will discontinue the tablets immediately. Please advise if the wet dose is made the same as the arnica wet dose, or differently. Again, thank you kindly for your help.

  28. Monica64 says:

    Joe I sincerely apologize but please clarify for me the exact nux vomica I should purchase…the 30c or the 6c? I am keeping very detailed notes so as to be clear on everything with my brain fog. I thank you kindly.

    • Joe says:

      Monica64

      I have been very patient with you and have responded to all your posts but you must understand that there is a limit to my patience. I am copying below your own post of yesterday where you clearly indicated that you were getting the Nux Vomica 30c which I had prescribed. In your second post of yesterday you want me to repeat the potency of the NV again.

      It appears to me that you are taking advantage of my patience and it is up to you to make arrangements to have someone close to you to supervise your medication and ensure that you are looked after as you cannot expect me at my advanced age of 85 to continue to answer your questions which you have repeated.

      You will otherwise compel me to withdraw from your case when you can go back to your doctors and the drugs they have poisoned you with in the past.

    Joe,

    I wanted to report my progress from about 2 weeks ago…towards the top of this posting I reached out to you regarding my baby who was diagnosed at 2 weeks of age with GERD. I had attempted your dose for 3 days and it worked but it returned about 3 weeks later and you recommended I give him 1 tablet after every feeding…Well I am here to tell you that if it wasnt for your help I would not have the most happy and lively baby ever…he went from eating every hour and nonstop crying at the time to now a 3 month old baby who does nothing but eat, sleep and laugh all the time. His eating improved considerably, at the time he could only drink 2 oz and is now drinking almost 4…he is sleeping comfortably and minimum 5-6 hours straight throughout the night. He is also finally sleeping in his crib which I could not do due to his silent reflux before. He took the dose for about 5 days straight and then I begin to taper it off and in less than a week it was completely gone. I has been 2 weeks today since the last time he had a dose and he is doing wonderful. Thank you so much for your time and help and most importantly helping me keep my baby off long term medicines that I did not want him on to begin with. I am eternally greatful!

    • Joe says:

      Zolivo20

      I am indeed delighted to have your news that in just 2 weeks my therapy aka “Joepathy” has succeeded in helping your baby to overcome his GERD.

      I have posted your case on my website and you can read it on:

      http://www.joedelivera.com/?m=201310

      You may not be aware that I am 85 years of age and that Homeopathy is NOT my profession. I have been helping patients for the last 25 years with my own interpretation of Homeopathy which the professional classical homeopaths labelled “Joepathy” as they discovered that I do not use the standard classical rules to treat patients but used my own method which both I and the patient discovered CURED the ailment.

      It is a post like yours that gives me the satisfaction to know that I have helped an infant to a better life away from the dangerous drugs like Zantac that was prescribed by your doctor who is aware of the dangers that this drug causes to Adults and more so to Infants because they were not taught that Homeopathy can CURE long before drugs can, without any danger to the patient who in your case is your infant son.

      Keep me informed of his response and I shall be happy to learn of his progress in life.

    Hi Joe,

    I’m reporting back in on my almost 3 month old and his GERD- I have been giving him one full tablet Nat Phos 6x after 5 different feedings throughout the day right after he’s done nursing and I burp him. I’ve been just putting the tablet right on his tongue so he would swallow all of it (when I dissolved it in liquid he spit half of it out). I’ve not seen any difference. He gets the tablet down for a few minutes before he spits up. I feel it’s a lot but but it did use to be a lot more liquidity and now it’s liquid but more chunky (if this makes sense). Sorry to explain in such detail but I want you to know exactly what I’m seeing. Also the last 2 days he’s been more squirmmy at the breast and had some milk come out Jim’s nose just a little (I know this a sign of GERD). He’s also been very fussy and wanting to nurse every 2 hours (he usually goes 2.5-3 hrs) the last few days. He is sleeping well at night though. I just wondered if sometimes it gets worse before better when you start this. Also to see what you would suggest for us to do now that we’ve done this therapy for almost 48 hours. Is it ok I’m just dissolving it directly on his tongue? Thanks so much for your help!!

    • Joe says:

      Blessed Family

      I believe that the reason for your baby not responding as usual to my therapy is because:
      “I’ve been just putting the tablet right on his tongue so he would swallow all of it (when I dissolved it in liquid he spit half of it out)”
      You must understand that an infant CANNOT handle a SOLID TABLET. You are very lucky that he did not CHOKE on it.

      You MUST give it to him DISSOLVED in milk. If he spits it up, you can give him another as it is very safe in use unlike the standard drugs which are not.

      It is likely that you may have to add:
      Nux Vomica 30c in Alcohol, to help the action of the Nat Phos tablet.

      When you get it, I shall give you instructions to use it.

      Read the case of Zolivo whose baby was CURED of GERD in 2 WEEKS on:

  31. Blessed Family says:

    Thanks so much! I feel foolish for just placing on his tongue and not thinking about choking hazard. I just placed it on the tip and watched in dissolve and seemed to get it down easily opposed to what seemed like it all coming out of his mouth. I will give it another day or two giving him a whole tablet 5 times a day dissolved in milk and then report back to see if you think we need to start nux vomica 30c and get instructions. Thanks so much for your help and sharing your wisdom in this matter.

  32. Monica64 says:

    Joe,
    I am going into day 5 of your “Joetherapy” and wanted to update you on my progress. I am taking the Arnica in wet dose and using the Mag Phos and Nat Phos (dissolving under tongue) as prescribed. I will have my Nux Vomica sometime today. I am no longer taking any kind of medication for gerd. I am eating 3 small, bland meals a day and drinking at least 3 liters of water with the occasional cup of hot chamomile tea. My blood sugar first thing this morning was 145 so no significant change in that as of yet. I am however eating oatmeal, small servings of lima or garbanzo beans and pears or peaches for meals because nothing else seems to settle well. I know those aren’t the best options for diabetics because of the carbs. I am going to try and incorporate some turkey or chicken into my diet today and omit a carb. I also will be trying a small protein shake for breakfast in place of oatmeal.
    I do get heartburn off and on throughout the day, typically after meals, but it is nothing I can’t live with. When it gets too intense, I eat a few crackers and sip water in hopes it will soak up some of the stomach acid. This seems to work fairly well. I feel good in the mornings and even my pain from my fibro has been limited and my body does not feel as tight and crippled up. I believe my mood is even better!
    I have dropped 9lbs as well! But, I am running to the bathroom several times a day and first thing in the morning. I had recently gotten my IBS under control so I am not sure if it is that again or possibly one of the remedies causing a bit of issues that way. I do check my blood pressure to be sure it is good because I am worried my medications are going right through me. So far, my blood pressure is perfectly fine. It could be my metformin is not staying in my body long enough due to the bathroom issues and that is why my blood sugar has no change as of yet. But, I know these things will take time as well.
    All in all, I feel pretty good after coming off of PPI’s that I have been on for at least 15yrs. Thank you kindly for all of your help! I believe I have a chance to regain my health.

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy that has proved to be very effective for Baby GERD is:

      Nat Phos 6x dose 1 tablet dissolved in milk given immediately after a feed.

      It is essential that you burp baby immediately after each feed.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby.You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      You will also take Arnica 30c which you will order in the Liquid Dilution as per instructions below. Please note that the Arnica is NOT for baby.
      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily and Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.
      Report progress in 24 hours and as often as you wish on this thread .

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Order the remedy in the Liquid pack in Alcohol, also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
      Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard at least 6 times before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
      Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this enhances the effect of the remedy on the user.

    Mr. De Livera,
    I have read of your therapy on many sites, but keep coming across multiple differences. I am so happy to find your page to ask you directly.

    My 6 week old is suffering from acid reflux. Her doctor prescribed Prevacid last week and we did give her one dose, and then stopped, as I couldn’t bear the thought of giving her such a medication.

    I then found out about Nat Phos 6x, and have been giving her 1 tablet by mouth after each feed. I know now, after reading above, that the tablets need to be dissolved in 5ml of milk.

    I had not been taking the nat phos myself or arnica. I will start those as soon as I receive my arnica liquid dilution.
    Can you advise me what percentage of alcohol 20% or 87% for the arnica liquid dilution? Washington Homeopathy gives me two choices.

    Also, I have read adding Nux Vomica 30c in the wet dose, twice a day, for my baby to support the Nat Phos. Can you confirm or was this only for a specific case?

    I am sorry for all the questions. I wanted you to know how much you have impacted so many lives with your help. I read you are 85yo and I am so impressed with your heart to help.

    • Joe says:

      Tina

      I am happy to note that you have studied the many posts I have made on many websites including my own, to mothers whose babies suffer from Baby GERD which leads to Reflux for which the standard remedy that is prescribed by paediatricians is a dangerous PPI drug in your case, Prevacid. They do so simply because of ignorance but this is unfortunately promoted by the medical profession as they are not aware of the most effective remedy for Baby GERD which is Nat Phos 6x which is a tablet that is absolutely safe in use and which CURES the baby’s reflux in a few days, in some cases even hours.

      For the record I shall copy my default therapy below:

      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard at least 6 times before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
      Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this enhances the effect of the remedy on the user.

      I note that you have mentioned Nux Vomica but I prefer not to prescribe it as I only do so if baby does not respond to the NP 6x.

    Hi Mr. De Livera,
    I have a 10 week old baby with severe reflux. I recently heard about Nat Phos 6x and purchased a bottle from Vitamin Shoppe. I researched it and found your site. I started giving my baby 1 tablet every other feeding dissolved in formula. I wasn’t sure if it was safe to give after every feeding (she eats about 7 times a day). We saw some initial improvement with the Nat Phos 6x but she is still spitting up a ton after each feeding, and sometimes projectile vomiting. She has been taking Nat Phos 6x about 4 weeks now. We added a probiotic about 2 weeks after starting the NP and it seems to help tremendously with her gassiness, but not the reflux. I have read your “default therapy for baby GERD” and am wondering if I should be giving her the Nat Phos 6x after all 7 feedings each day. If so, a whole or half tablet dissolved in formula? Do you advise adding Nu Vomica to the regimen at this point? I was so happy to find your website and will appreciate any advice you can give! Thanks so much!

      MELANIE

      I believe that you have studied my default therapy for Baby GERD and are already using the Nat Phos 6x I have recommended. Since she has not stopped projectile vomiting in 4 weeks it is now time to give her Nux Vomica 30c in the Wet dose twice daily and report her progress in 48 hours.

      For the record I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy that has proved to be very effective for Baby GERD is:

      Nat Phos 6x dose 1 tablet dissolved in milk given immediately after a feed.

      It is essential that you burp baby immediately after each feed.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby.You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      You will also take Arnica 30c which you will order in the Liquid Dilution as per instructions below. Please note that the Arnica is NOT for baby.
      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily and Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.
      Report progress in 24 hours and as often as you wish on this thread .

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Order the remedy in the Liquid pack in Alcohol, also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
      Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard at least 6 times before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
      Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this enhances the effect of the remedy on the user.

      • Melanie says:

        Thank you so much for your reply! I will order the Nux Vomica 30c in the wet dose and update 48 hours after I receive it and give it to my baby. In the meantime, do you suggest I increase the Nat Phos 6x from every other feeding to every feeding (which would be a total of 6-7 tablets per day)? This would be doubling the amount of the NP that she currently takes. I want to make sure I’m giving her an effective dose for her symptoms without overdoing it. Please advise. I read your story and I am very grateful for your generosity in helping people like me discover homeopathic remedies in place of traditional medications! I will update 48 hours I receive the Nux Vomica. Thank you again!

        • Joe says:

          Melanie

          Nat Phos 6x is very safe in use. Nux Vomica may only be used for a limited period to reinforce the action of NP.

          You may give a tablet dissolved in milk after every feed and when he is comfortable, you may reduce the dose to half tablet.

          Please note that you cannot order the WET DOSE of Nux Vomica.
          Follow my instructions precisely as prescribed.

  36. Melanie says:

    Thank you for your help! I have ordered the Nux Vomica 30c in liquid dilution form. I will give my baby a tablet of Nat Phos 6x after every feeding for now. I will report back 48 hours after Nux Vomica is received. Again, thanks so much!

  37. Melanie says:

    Mr. De Livera,
    I wanted to report my baby’s progress while I am waiting for the Nux Vomica to arrive. I gave my baby 1 tablet of Nat Phos 6x (dissolved in formula) after each feeding yesterday for a total of 6 tablets. I didn’t give it to her during her 3am feeding, but did so after every other feed. Her bowels have not moved like they normally do, but it hasn’t seemed to bother her. However, her reflux seems much worse. She typically spits up a lot and projectile vomits once or twice a day. Over the last 24 hours, she has projectile vomited almost every feeding, and sometimes multiple times each feeding. We burp her very well and keep her inclined. She has also become very fussy, squirmy and jerky while eating, like she’s hungry but it bothers her to eat. Any advice you have is greatly appreciated.
    Melanie

    • Joe says:

      Melanie

      Let us observe how your baby responds after you give her the Nux V as this usually reinforces the action of Nat P almost overnight when baby will stop her refluxing.

      There are yet other remedies that we can use if those listed above do not work, but you do not have to get them right now till we test them first.

  38. Melanie says:

    Thank you Mr. De Livera! I will continue with the Nat Phos 6x and report back after the Nux Vomica is received. Thanks again!

    Joe,
    I have a 5 week old son who is exclusively breastfed who for the past 2 weeks has been having green and neon green bowels movements. For the first 3 weeks of his life he was having normal yellow seedy breastmilk bowel movements. I have not changed anything in my diet or eaten anything new. I have been dairy free for 3 days and he is still having the green poops every time he poops which is 4-6 times per day, he has not been sleeping well at night for the past week, after he eats it is hard to get him to settle down, he seems restless when he is trying to sleep at night, he will sometimes bring his knees to his belly and cry in pain, he spits up more often than my other 2 children, sometimes he spits up lots of undigested milk and other times the spit up looks curdled, he burps a lot and some sound very wet, he wants to eat all the time, sometimes every 30 minutes, he rarely stays content after a feeding. I feel like for the past 2 weeks he has been acting like he is in a growh spurt. I went to see a LC today and showed her the poop and pictures of some poopy diapers that he had. She told me it did not look like a foremilk imbalance. She had mentioned acid reflux and a dr appointment. I do not want him on medications. I would like to try a more natural approach before harsh medications.

        Hello Mr. DeLivera,

        I have a five-month-old baby with reflux. He is 26 inches and 17.5 pounds. He was on Zantac from three weeks until I took him off about 2 weeks and 3 days ago. days ago. He did just fine without the medication until he got his four month vaccinations a week after I took him off the medication. Since then, his reflux has seemed to return. I don’t want to give him Zantac again because of the side effects. We started Nat Phos 6x today after I came across your blog a few days ago. One tablet dissolved inf formula after his feedings (not to exceed 6 tablets daily.) Do you have any other recommendations? One of his biggest problems with the reflux is the inability to take long naps because the reflux bothers him. I read on one post you advised a mother to give Arnica 30c in the wet dose. Do you think this would be acceptable in my situation. Thank you for any help you have to offer

          I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

          The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

          You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

          You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

          You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

          Babies do not always do a poo daily. Some babies can go up to 5 days to do so. A gentle massage of her abdomen after every feed in a clockwise direction usually stimulates evacuation.

          It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
          Do not give the MMR Vaccine in One shot as there is plenty of evidence on the Web of severe side effects which can result. You are advised to give it in 3 separate shots if you must do so, after baby is 2 years old.

          Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

          You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

          If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

          You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.

  40. Jami says:

    Before I proceed are there any side effects to the baby from taking these remedies? I saw you wrote that it would help me loose weight when I take the nat phos6x so then would baby loose weight or miss out on nutrients from my breast milk, because I was reading that it can help in loosing weight by preventing the food from absorbing into my system so will it have the same effect on baby? I do not wanting him loosing weight.

    • Joe says:

      Jami

      Nat Phos 6x (NP) has never been reported to reduce the infant’s weight. I have been prescribing this remedy to hundreds of babies and I have never had any adverse reports.

      NP will reduce the weight of anyone who is overweight and it does so by accelerating the passage of food down the gut which action inhibits the production of acid which is usually the body’s reaction, even at the tender age of babies only a few weeks old. It is this Hydrochloric acid (Hcl) that wreaks havoc in babies causing so much distress.

      You may give a full tablet of NP safely to your Baby and you will observe baby’s response in a few minutes as reported by mothers who were desperate for a cure of their baby’s distress for which doctors persist in prescribing PPI drugs like Prevacid and others which they know are dangerous for adults when used for over a week.
      The damage they cause to babies is best left unsaid.

      Report your baby’s response in 24 hours.

  41. Winter says:

    I started giving my 2 month old nat phos 6x three days ago. I have given him half a tablet three times a day for the past three days. His symptoms have improved. He has less crying while feeding (he is breastfed exclusively). But he is still spitting up a lot with still some discomfort at times with spitting up and burping. I burp him as often as possible, but it is heartbreaking that he has such pain from it.

    Could you please advise me how I should proceed. I wasn’t sure how long I could give it to an infant. Also, I tried to give it to him dissolved in breast milk after each feeding but he usually doesn’t want to drink anymore milk after he finishes feeding. So instead I have been crushing half a pill and then dipping my finger in water and mixing the crushed pill and placing the paste into his mouth. Is this ok?

    I space out his pill every other feeding throughout the day. He has been very hyper at night before bed. Could this be connected to the nat phos 6X?

    I must also add that I live in Germany. I had to have my sweet aunt, who came to visit this week, bring the nat phos 6x to me from the U.S. Glad I could get it because my poor son was in a lot of discomfort.

    Thank you for your help!

      It is quite safe to give Baby a FULL tablet of Nat Phos 6x which you will dissolve in water or milk and give him during a feed if he refuses to take it after.

      I am surprised to learn that you cannot source Nat Phos 6x in Germany where I am informed that there is a Homeopathic Pharmacy in almost every street.

      You are perhaps hot aware that Homeopathy was first discovered by Samuel Hahnemann over 250 years ago.

      Report his response in 24 hours after increasing the dosage.

      • Winter says:

        Dear Joe,

        Thank you for your response.

        I will further look into obtaining the nat phos 6x here. You are right in that their are many homeopaph pharmacies.

        I will try the full dosage with my boy starting tomorrow. For how many days is it safe to give it to him?

        Kind regards.

          Nat Phos 6x is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT to be compared with any drug like Prevacid or Nexium which are invariably prescribed by doctors for babies even though they are aware that their use over a long term can cause serious side effects.

          It is absolutely safe in use and you can read the experience of a few desperate mothers on the link below. There are also many hundreds of cases on my website which you can search for on it.

    Hello Dr.

    I am not sure if I am posting correctly. I tried to post before and cannot find the post and am unsure if you have responded. If this is a duplicate, I truly apologize.

    I came across your forum during one of my frantic internet searches. My son is almost 4 months old and is suffering terribly with silent reflux.

    A GI prescribed Zantac 3 times a day…it didn’t work. She then prescribed Prevacid (which we were really hesitant on because we do not believe in medicating children), but we gave in out of desperation. We are so tired of seeing our sweet little baby cry, scream, thrash… My family has barely seen him because we are absolutely home bound due to his condition.

    The prevacid compound worked like magic for about 4-5 days. We couldn’t even hear the reflux coming up anymore and the pain was gone! Day 6 everything came crashing down and he is swallowing reflux constantly, coughing, in frantic pain (we’ve had to give him Tylenol just to calm him down). Prevacid constipated him and gave him terrible gas pain. With .5 of organic prune juice he goes potty but the gas pain is still there plus the reflux.

    Until today I hadn’t found anything else that pointed to homeopathic help for reflux. Can you give me your recommendation???

    He’s 4 months old. Weighs about 16 lbs.

    1. What is nas phospate?
    2. What is the recommended dose?
    3. For how long?
    4. In your other posts it mentions 1 tablet 6 x a day dissolved in milk after a feed. We are feeding baby formula so that is technically his feed. Are you suggesting that I give him his 4 ounces THEN give him some additional formula with the dissolved tablet?? And I do this 6 x a day…?

    I also read something about Nux vomica??

    Any guidance would be appreciated.

    Thank you!!!

            She continues to display reflux symptoms and is extremely unsettled at night (unsettled during the day too), and will only sleep upright on my shoulder. She generally only sleeps for 20-30 minutes at a time, and wakes with grunts and cries. Each feed seems to upset her greatly afterwards, although she is feeding well enough to get enough milk and is gaining weight very well. She feeds often to relieve her pains I think.

  45. Elizabeth says:

    Dear Dr. De Livera,

    I, like many others on your website, am reaching out for your invaluable insights in the treatment of my 5 1/2 week old son’s reflux. My pediatrician has not yet diagnosed this as it has become increasingly more prevalent since our one month check up. Instinctually I’m certain, reflux is the cause of my son’s discomfort and I would like to extinguish this problem before it worsens. He exhibits many symptoms of reflux. Arching back, gurgling, spitting up increasingly large amounts of breast milk, fussy at the breast, interrupted sleeping patterns during the day, nasal congestion following feedings, choking (even though I burp him after every feeding). The only thing we are not having a problem with is weight gain. he is definitely thriving.

    First, it behooves me to tell you- that much to my dismay, my son is on a prophylactic antibiotic for an existing kidney issue that may warrant surgery in the next few weeks. He has been diagnosed with a blocked ureter and our pediatric urologist is non-negotiable on the antibiotic (2.5 ml of amoxicillin once daily). I have a feeling this may be partially to blame for the reflux. So my first question to you is, will your treatment be effective for him given he is on a course of antibiotics? I refuse to give my son any more prescription medication as i know it is ultimately not healthy. I also fought the amoxicillin but lost that battle with the urologist. My son’s general pediatrician is very supportive of naturopathic and homeopathic treatments. We also see a holistic chiropractor with whom I will also speak with about the reflux.

    I’ve read through your default therapy and previous cases. I intend to follow that unless otherwise instructed by you. I’m going to see if I can get the ingredients today at a local shop and if not, I will order them online.

    Any guidance you are willing to offer is greatly appreciated.
    If you are curious as to how I found you, it was through extensive research on the issue of homeopathic treatments for infant reflux and GERD. I found several links to your materials on various forums. Thank you!

    Warm Regards,
    Elizabeth

    • Joe says:

      Elizabeth

      I am very concerned with your report of your infant son’s report of a blocked ureter causing an infection for which your urologist has recommended surgery. I presume that you are aware of the danger of this surgery in the case of a baby only a few weeks old.

      I would urge you to consult another paediatrician in the largest Hospital in your city and seek an alternate opinion.

      You have already read my therapy for GERD using Nat Phos 6x which will not be affected by the Amoxyl but I would not recommend surgery for whatever reason without consulting more than one physician who may be more interested in the revenue he can derive from you rather than doing his duty towards your baby.

      • Elizabeth says:

        Thanks for your sincere concern. I live in NYC and have had several opinions. I am currently with one of the best practices in this area so I really do have to place a certain amount of trust in these doctors, although I am indeed largely skeptical of modern medicine and surgery in infants. I’d be hard pressed to find better medical care than in one of the largest cities on the East Coast and surely at one of the best hospitals. I am waiting to take my son for the renal scan next week and we will then see if the surgery is something that can be postponed. I’m not coming at this from a place of blind trust nor do I take it lightly. After the renal scan, I also intend to have yet another opinion. Again, I appreciate your concern and will let you know how your recommended treatment for the reflux works for my son.

        Kind regards,
        Elizabeth

        • Joe says:

          Elizabeth

          I am relieved to note that you live in NYC and have already consulted many opinions. I have encountered several cases where patients have been guided by a single opinion and have been instrumental in preventing unnecessary drugs and even surgery from being used to treat the patient. Hence my advice to you.

          I do believe that your baby is too young to be in surgery to treat his Ureter right now and if at all possible, I would leave him alone for a few more months or even years to observe if his normal growth will open up the blockage.

          If you would care to give me more data on the diagnosis of this blockage, I may be able to suggest some therapy.

          Please also keep me advised of the progress of his reflux which may be a contributory factor to his blocked ureter which is the first case I have encountered at his age.

    Hello Joe,

    It’s refreshing to finally find an alternative holistic remedy to Acid Reflux. My daughter was born premature at 26 weeks. She is now a healthy 7 month old, but she is suffering with Acid Reflux baby GERD. It started when she was one month old. She was exclusively breast feed, but then her pedi moved her to thicken formula. She is on Gerber Good Start sooth with added barley. She was not on any meds, until a month, Prevacid 15mg once a day was prescribed by her pedi. But I find she is still vomiting up the same, and she seems to have more gas too. I would love if you can provide the correct prescriptions and therapy to use. I am extremely eager to start this holistic therapy with my daughter soon as possible.

    Kind Regards,
    Rovina

    • Joe says:

      Rovina

      I am glad to learn that your Baby girl is “is now a healthy 7 month old, but she is suffering with Acid Reflux baby GERD.”

      Since she was born prematurely at 26 weeks she is in real terms only 4.5 months old and at that tender age to be instructed by your paediatrician to “moved her to thicken formula”, is simply preposterous.

      I presume that this is the medicine that they all are brainwashed into accepting and you must consider yourself fortunate that you located me to advise you on her GERD.

      I must insist that you STOP the Prevacid prescribed as you can see that it is causing more problems than it solves, as described by you. At the dosage you indicated it can even be considered as dangerous for a baby with her history.

      I would suggest that you go back to just Breast Feeding and you will add my default therapy for Baby GERD copied below:

      The remedy that has proved to be very effective for Baby GERD is:

      Nat Phos 6x dose 1 tablet dissolved in milk given immediately after a feed. You will not exceed 6 tablets in 24 hours.

      It is essential that you burp baby immediately after each feed.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby.You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      You will also take Arnica 30c which you will order in the Liquid Dilution as per instructions below. Please note that the Arnica is NOT for baby.
      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily and Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.
      Report progress in 24 hours and as often as you wish on this thread .

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Order the remedy in the Liquid pack in Alcohol, also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
      Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard at least 6 times before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
      Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this enhances the effect of the remedy on the user.

    Hello Joe,

    Thank you so much for your response it’s much appreciated. I do have a few follow-up questions and some clarifications to make based on my first comment I made reaching out to you.

    First clarification as I just want to let you know that my daughter is seven months corrected age right now so just want to make sure that you have the correct info on her age.

    Second at the present time she has been off of breast milk now for about I would say four months so I’m no longer producing any breastmilk so I can’t really go back go back to breast-feeding her again. Bummer I know!

    Third she has never been big on burping, she sometimes does and other times none. So based on your remedy if she does not burp after feeding her when using Nat Phos 6x. Would this affect the remedy in any way?

    I have stopped the her reflux meds because it seems to not be helping. Before I start your program I do have a few followup questions for my clarification as I do want this to be successful for her.

    1. Since I can no longer breast feed my daughter, does this change the prescribed therapy that you provided me?

    2. What’s the duration of days for the prescribed therapy/remedy? Or is this a continuos remedy?

    3. Is Nat Phos 6x the only thing I need to purchase for this remedy since she will continue on the formula?

    I am so anxious to start this therapy for my daughter. I spoke to her pedi today about your program and he was quite interested to see if your homeopathic therapy will help my daughter, and he is hoping its a success, me too!

    I look forward to hearing from you,

    Cheers,
    Rovina

      The time here in Colombo where I live is coming on to midnight and I do not have the time to reply you right now but I want you to start on the Nat Phos 6x therapy immediately and report her response to me within 12 hours.

      If you are not lactating, you will use formula but STOP the solids till her reflux is stabilized.

      You may like to read and share my therapy with your pediatrician for Baby Gerd by doing a search under that term on my website.

  48. Rovina says:

    Joe,

    Most appreciated! I will follow up with you tomorrow.

    • Rovina says:

      Hello Joe,

      I just wanted to give you a status report on my daughter with a full 24 hour remedy testing.

      Here is what I’ve seen so far.

      A. I started giving Nat Phos 6x therapy yesterday starting at her 5:00pm feeding. She typically drinks 4oz every 2 1/2 to 3 hours. So after feeding her the first 3oz I resolved the Nat Phos 6x (1 tablet) in the 1oz left. She drank it all. But refused to burp. She did great after her feeding, with no spit up. She did have a few dry 2 second cough, but did great. I also noticed her gas was less after the 5:00pm feeding. I then again gave her the Nat Phos 6x (1tab) at her 8:00pm feeding, again she did great and finished her entire bottle. She did not burp, but went to sleep for the night. She woke up at 3:00am for a small feeding. But I did not give her the Nat Phos 6x at this feeding, due to the limitation of only giving the Nat Phos 6x (6x in 24 hours). Either way she went back to sleep on he back with no issues. She woke up at 7:30am for the morning feeding.

      B. I gave her the Nat Phos 6x at ther 8:00am feeding, again she did great with no spit up or gas.

      C. Before her 11:00am feeding she had what I call “acid bomb” spit up at 10:30am. She digested all her food from her 8:00am feeding but had lots of acid in her tummy. I feed her at 11:00am and gave her the Nat Phos 6x. Again she did great, and took a nap after. After her nap she was rolling around on the floor and at 1:00pm she had another “acid bomb” spit up. Against all her food was digested and only acid was coming out of her mouth.

      D. I feed her again at 2:00pm and did great, took another nap. But again at 5:00pm she had another “acid bomb” spit up, again it was only acid.

      E. I just feed her again at 5:00pm, she is now sleeping comfortably. But spitting up 3 “acid bombs” in one day she has never done.

      Here are my questions:

      1. Why so much acid spitting up?

      2. What can I do to stop these acid spit ups?

      3. Do I need to add anything else to this therapy?

      4. Does the therapy need to be adjusted to stop her spitting up acid?

      Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

      Oversell I can see a difference with giving her Nat Phos 6x, no vomiting up all her food, her dry coughing is less, her gagging is less as well, and no terrible gas or pain from the gas.

      I look forward in hearing back from you.

      Thanks,
      Rovina

      • Joe says:

        Rovina

        You have given Nat Phos to baby for just under 24 hours and you cannot expect it to CURE her within this time.

        It usually takes a few days to do so when you can reduce the dosage but you will continue to use my therapy for another 48 hours and report progress.

        • Rovina says:

          Hello Joe,

          Here is the progress report for my daughter. Since staring the therapy 5 days total so far I have seen some improvements with her reflux. She went from vomiting 3x’s a day to now 1x a day, big improvement! But she still seems to be getting a lot of acid in her stomic, thus spitting up acid about 2x’s a day now. She is still eating 3-4oz at a time.. So I feed her every 2-3 hours. I also notice her gaggingis a little less, but I know the gagging happnes when she put her fingers in her mouth too far back causing gagging and leading to spitting up. Any suggestions on helping her with her gagging?

          Would you like me to still continue your therapy of 1 Nat Phos after her feedings, or start tapering it down to 1/2 Nat Phos after each feedin?

          Overall your therapy is working, I might need to administer your therapy a little longer. Please advise what next steps I should take?

          Thanks Rovina!

          • Joe says:

            Rovina

            Your baby seems to be doing well judging by your reports for a premature baby as you started on my therapy just 4 days ago.

            You may use Nat Phos very safely in comparison to the drugs you were prescribed which are not safe for use for babies. Not even for adults.

            I regret that I cannot help you with her gagging after tickling her throat which you will have to prevent by some means.

            I hope that you do not continue to give her solids as oer the advice of your doctor, as this could have started her reflux originally.

          • Rovina says:

            Hello Joe!

            Success is the word today! Your remedy worked, it just needed a little time. Thank you ver much for your guidance in your therapy. My daughter now has “no” vomit days. And is gaining her weight nicely.

            I do have two last questions:

            1. Since my daughter has been spitting up acid, she’s still not taking her bottle when she is awake. Leading me to believe her throat may be hurting her from all the acid spit up. Do you have a remedy to help sooth her throat?

            2. If I do have to giver her the Nat Phos when I see any reflux issues arises. Should I give her half the pill or whole?

            Cheers,
            Rovina

            • Joe says:

              Rovina

              I am glad to learn that your daughter’s GERD has finally stabilised after about 10 days on my therapy. This extra delay is perhaps due to her being a preemie as in my experience babies respond in a couple of days to my Nat Phos therapy.

              You may now reduce her dosage of NP to half tablet after a feed and when she seems better you may even stop the NP. You will however keep a stock handy to be used if she shows any signs of distress again, which I do not envisage.

              I do not think that she needs any other remedy to sooth her throat which I believe will resolve on its own now that she does not reflux.

              I would request you to take her to the paediatrician who was treating her last month and tell him about the Nat Phos 6x and perhaps even present him with a sample for test purposes.

              I would appreciate a progress report from you to enable me to keep track of her status in later life. Do not hesitate to consult me for any problems she may present later in life.

    Hello sir please give advice on helping my 14 week old baby boy.
    I am 30 years old and he is my first born.
    About 2 weeks ago he started spitting up he is on similac gas and fussyness formula as I was not able to produce milk to breast feed him.
    Our doctor put him on zantac last week I gave him this medication for a week and do not see much difference as he still spits up almost every feeding.
    He also started dry coughing alot but last night after his feeding he kept on making throwup/ gag sounds and was not burping finally he spit up his milk and felt better.
    I have stopped his zantac since yesterday and am looking to help him feel better with natural products.
    Please advise your help is greatly appreciated.

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy that has proved to be very effective for Baby GERD is:

      Nat Phos 6x dose 1 tablet dissolved in milk given immediately after a feed. You will not exceed 6 tablets in 24 hours.

      It is essential that you burp baby immediately after each feed.

    My three and 4 days old daughter grunts alot, she becomes so red and her stomach becomes hard. She does it all night and seems so uncomfortable.she does it before a bowel movement too. I am exclusively breastfeeding her and dont know if it’s because of what I am eating that’s making her gassy and making it hard for her to release the air in her stomach.

    • Joe says:

      Iqra

      You do not have to be so concerned about your 4 day old daughter whom you state:
      “grunts alot, she becomes so red and her stomach becomes hard”

      Let us observe how she progresses in the next few weeks and if her condition is still causing you concern, feel free to report it on my website for advice.

      You must burp her after every feed to release the air she would have sucked during feeding. This will hopefully fix the problem.

      You can take Nat Phos 6x dose 2-3 tablets after every meal as the effect will pass over to baby through your breast milk and this will hopefully reduce her problem.

      Nat Phos 6x will also reduce your weight by 1kg per week.
      It is absolutely safe to be used as it is NOT a drug.

    Hello again
    According to your kind advise I have given my son Nat phos 6x first 24 hours not exceeding mote then 6 doses after feedings. 2nd day I reduced the doses to half pill.
    His symptoms are greatly reduced but since last night when he is laying down and sitting up some of the milk is coming up his throat and he tries to swallow it back he looks uncomfortable and also has a dry cough along with reflux. Sometimes this is followed by hiccups. He has had the cough for past few weeks.
    Please advise how to proceed he is on 98% lactose free formula similac sensitive gas and fussiness.
    Thank you

    • Joe says:

      nida

      You cannot expect your baby boy to be CURED in just 48 hours.

      According to your report he is doing very nicely and you will have to let his digestive system take over without any drugs or remedies but this will take a few more days.

  53. nida says:

    Thank you for your kind reply please advise if I should continue with 1tablet after feedings? Please advise how long should I continue with this remedy.

    Thank you

    • Joe says:

      You may continue to give him the Nat Phos 6x for as long as you find that it is helping him. It is absolutely safe in use and is NOT a drug.

  54. Ana Gereda says:

    Dr Joe.,

    I have a a 2 month old baby and has t baby gerd. I found your website and started giving him NP6X one pellet after each feeding but no more than 6 per day is day 5 and he seems so much better but still really gassy and colicky. I just got the Nix vomica but couldn’t find the Wet version at any store in my area and didn’t want to order online and wait for i since the baby has been really uncomfortable. Please let me know if the same if I take 5 pellets of Nux Vom and pass it to him through my milk and continue to give Nat Phos 6x directly to him. He’s breastfed and formula fed once or twice a day.
    Thank you so much
    God bless you

    • Joe says:

      Ana Gereda

      “Please let me know if the same if I take 5 pellets of Nux Vom and pass it to him through my milk and continue to give Nat Phos 6x directly to him. He’s breastfed and formula fed once or twice a day.”

      Homeopathic remedies do NOT work in this manner. You cannot expect any remedy to be passed on the baby by your taking it. You need not give him Nux V unless he does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x. From your statement it seems to have helped him and you will be patient and observe his response in a few days.

      For the record I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD as I do not seem to have done so for you so far:

      The remedy that has proved to be very effective for Baby GERD is:

      Nat Phos 6x dose 1 tablet dissolved in milk given immediately after a feed. You will not exceed 6 tablets in 24 hours.

      Answering your question:
      Nat Phos 6x is NOT a drug and is absolutely safe to be taken by babies as long as it is helping them. You will of course stop the remedy when you discover that baby does not need it any more.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after each feed.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby.You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      You will also take Arnica 30c which you will order in the Liquid Dilution as per instructions below. Please note that the Arnica is NOT for baby.

      Report progress in 24 hours and as often as you wish on this thread.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Order the remedy in the Liquid pack in Alcohol, also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.

  55. Ana Gereda says:

    Forgot to tell you on day 3rd and 4th of NP6. Reduced dosis to 4 a day. Maybe that’s why not much improvement since then. For how long is this safe to take?

  56. Ana Gereda says:

    Dr Joe,

    Thanks for answering in detail all my questions.

    I’ve noticed that baby is still very uncomfortabe espe.cially when he wants to poop he seems colicky but some diluted drop of lavanWhder oil on tummy helps with the cryimg. When administer Nat Phos baby gets . calmerand falls asleep. HeHewakes up breathing in a way that makes me think he aspired the milk, no spitting up though and eventhough I burp him after each feeding.He seems anxious to eat all the time

    • Joe says:

      Ana Gereda

      If as you state the Nat Phos helps him, feel free to use is as necessary.

      ” HeHewakes up breathing in a way that makes me think he aspired the milk”
      It is very unlikely that he “aspires” the milk as it cannot reach his lungs.

    Does it interfere in something that I’m taking strong probiotics? ( 85 billion organisms) twice daily

    Hi there – my 5w old son has been suffering from silent reflux. He has been gaining well but has developed a stridor and is in daily pain. After ruling out structural issues, we were prescribed ranitidine. After a day and a half, his symptoms are WORSE and I have never seen him in so much pain.

      I cannot understand the reason why pediatricians prescribe PPI drugs for babies when they are aware that they are harmful for adults and far more dangerous for babies. Do a Google search under “The danger of PPI drugs” to read how these drugs can affect patients.

      • Kelly Stonelake says:

        Thank you so much for your fast and thorough response, Doctor!

        1. If I am not to exceed 6 doses but feeding frequently, should the last feedings of the day be without the medicine or should I space it out across the day’s feedings? I currently feed him about 8-10 times per day.

        2. Should I follow this schedule without the arnica? I wil order some, but I believe I will be able to get the Nat phos sooner. Should I start on that first even if I don’t have the arnica?

        3. How should I reduce the doses? Should I change to half a dose at some point? The next day?

        THANK YOU!

        • Joe says:

          Kelly Stonelake

          You may give him 1 tablet NP for the first few feeds and you should discover a marked difference in his status within the hour, hopefully. This sudden transformation has been reported to me often and you can read a case I posted under Articles today where baby was CURED in 3 days after suffering for sometime from PPI drugs.

          You can reduce the dose to half tablet for the last 2 feeds but be assured that NP is absolutely safe unlike the PPI drugs.

          Remember that the Arnica is NOT for baby.

          Report progress daily.

          • Kelly Stonelake says:

            Thank you. After his first dose, he spit up a lot which is not normal for him (silent reflux). Is that okay?

            Will this help w his constipation? He is in considerable pain.

            • Joe says:

              Kelly Stonelake

              His current reflux is NOT DUE to the first dose of Nat Phos you gave him.
              It should help his constipation and you will report progress.

              If he has been consipated during the past few days, you can do a gentle massage of his abdomen to help expel the blockage.

  59. Kelly Stonelake says:

    So far so good — in combination with chiropractic care, I have a new baby today. He doesn’t seem to have any reflux. Knock on wood. I will continue treatment and update tomorrow.

  60. Jason Bibbings says:

    Hello – my baby is just 1 week old (6lbs 12oz), and I’m already seeing issues with silent GERD. He was treated with antibiotics shortly after birth, but it was precautionary, and he is otherwise healthy.

    He is breastfeeding exclusively and he nurses vigorously due to his belly pain. He does not sleep well lying down, and often makes a choking and slightly weezy sound due to regurgitation after feeding.

    I have begun today to administer 1/2 Nat Phos 6x tablet due to his small size. Is there anything else I should consider due to his small size?

    • Joe says:

      Jason Bibbings

      I am gratified to note that you have already given your baby 1/2 tablet of Nat Phos 6x.

      You should discover by now that baby is OK. When you find that he has stabilized you can wean him off the NP 6x.
      It is very likely that his gastric problem is due to the antibiotic you gave him which has upset the bacteria in his gut. You can replace them with a Probiotic suitable for babies which you will have to source with advice from a doctor.

    He fed again about an hour ago, and because he was so irritable, we gave him a full tablet dissolved in water after the feeding.

    His mother has taken a single dose of 2 Nat Phos 6x in that time. We also could only find the pellet version of the arnica 30c and my wife has also taken one of those. Should we try something different?

    Thank you.

      It is most likely that the antibiotic was responsible for his current distress and I believe that the Probiotic I prescribed which you will have to get after discussing with your doctor, is the solution.

      In the meanwhile you will continue with the NP which you can safely give in a full tablet and report results.

      Why was baby given an antibiotic?

      It is possible that your doctors prefer to create a problem to ensure that they are kept in business.

      • Jason Bibbings says:

        Thank you. We will try to look for some probiotics. Is it ok to stop the Nat Phos 6x doses until we get the probiotic, as it seemed to upset his condition even more?

        He was given antibiotics as a precaution against an infection, but it turns out he never had one.

        • Jason Bibbings says:

          We were unable to contact our pediatrician until next week, but we found some probiotics in the meantime: http://www.megafood.com/childrens-health/kids-n-us-megaflora

          This had multiple strains of bacteria, including lactobacillus reuteri which has been shown to improve reflux in infants in clinical studies, and since he was treated with a broad spectrum antibiotic we figured a broad spectrum probiotic was good as well. We have also ordered probiotic drops from biogaia.

          The on-call pediatrician told us to get some over-the-counter simethicone drops, and we’ve used those today. Between the probiotics, drops, and a removal of wheat from our diet we have seen a slight improvement today.

          We have not given him the Nat Phos 6x today because we were scared since he seemed worse yesterday after we administered it.

          • Joe says:

            Jason Bibbings

            It is very unlikely that Nat Phos 6x can cause any more distress to Baby. Since he is just a week old you can safely give him half tablet dissolved in your breast milk if the probiotic alone is not helping him.

            I am not aware what the simethicone drops are and it is best not to experiment with unknown drugs which can aggravate a case of reflux which is rare in a baby under 2 weeks of age and thereby make it a more difficult case to treat..

    Hi I have read a lot about this remedy my 2 month old got prescribed with ranitidine I give it to him for about 3 or 4 days but he didn’t get any better so we decided to start with this remedy today is his 4th day on it the first day I give him 1 tablet dissolved in 5 ml of water he was fussy keep arching his back but didn’t throw up that much the second day i give him 1/2 of tablet dissolved in 5 ml of water seem way better he was even smiling and took two naps during the day the first one for 3 homes n the second one for about 4 hours and at night he just woke up once for a feeding the third day after the first feeding of the morning I give him 1/2 of tablet again but it didn’t seem to work on him so the next one I went back up to 1 tablet he keep seem un confortable and today which is the fourth day we keep doing the whole tablet he hasn’t been able to nap for more that an hour he’s been throwing up after every feed but it doesn’t seem to bother him but I’m worry about him I don’t know if I did wrong going back up to 1 tablet I hope you can help me with this situation. Oh I forgot to mention that he’s strictly breasfeed if that helps with something thx.

      I do admire your unilateral use of Nat Phos 6x in the manner that you have done for your Baby which worked at first and did not continue to do so after a few doses.

      I have come across a few similar cases like your baby and have prescribed Aethusa Cynapium 30c in the Wet dose given twice daily. This helps the baby to digest milk to which some babies are allergic.

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Order the remedy in the Liquid pack in Alcohol, also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
      Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard at least 6 times before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
      Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this enhances the effect of the remedy on the user.

      Report progress in 48 hours.

    Hello Joe thankyou for your previous help I have been giving my now 4 month old Nat phos 6 for about 3 weeks he is a lot better now but lately everytime we lay him down flat he gets very uncomfortable we can see reflex taking place where something comes up his throat and he tries to swallow it back. This makes him very uncomfortable he also gets a dry cough following the reflux. sometimes during and after reflux takes place he also takes a long deep breath holds it and then releases it.
    Lately the cough and reflux takes place even when he is upright and few hours have passed since the last feeding.
    I have been giving him 1tablet Nat p 6 desolved in water after almost every feeding.
    We also were extremely worried about the breathing issue he is having where he keeps on holding his breath. He has been to urgent care twice and doctors do not think anything is wrong with him.
    please advise how to proceed next as this new breathing, coughing and constant reflux milk comming up his throat issue has developed.
    Thank you

      “I have been giving him 1tablet Nat p 6 desolved in water after almost every feeding.”

      It is best to give him at least half tablet after a feed to enable his digestive process to work better. It promotes Peristalsis and softens the stool and thereby ensures a daily motion.

      NP 6x is absolutely safe in use. It is not a drug.

      A Probiotic can also help by adding to the bacteria in the gut but you will get advice from your pediatrician.

    Dear Joe,

    I am so thankful I have found this website! I have been giving my 8 week old son Nat Phos tablets for the past week and his reflux has improved tremendously! He is much happier and content, and he sleeps better too! Now sometimes after I give him the NP he spits up almost immediately, and I was wondering if I should give him another dose in that case? I give him 4 tablets a day, dissolved in milk.

    Thank you a lot,
    Gabrielle

    • Joe says:

      Gabrielle Beaudoin

      Glad to learn that your baby has stabilized in his feeding routine.

      If as you state, he spits up immediately after a feed, you can give him half tablet dissolved in milk.

      Where do you live? France?

    Thank you very much for your quick reply. I live in Québec, Canada 🙂
    I am very thankful for your help!

  66. Jeanette PK says:

    Dear Joe,
    My name is Jeanette, I am from Norway, but I currently live in the Canary Islands (Spain). I am married to Bettina, who is from Denmark. My wife gave birth to our first son, who is 2 years old. I am writing to you because I need help with our second son, who is now 7 1/2 months old, who I think has silent reflux.

    I would like to apologize in advance for a very long post, but I think it is important that you know the entire history. I am usually a very positive person who loves life, but having a baby with so many problems and trying to be the best mom ever and desperately trying to find “a cure” has taken it’s toll on me. I am hopeful and do feel like it is meant to be that I came across your website.

    I gave birth to my son by c-section, he weighed 2843 grams and was 48 cm long. A bit on the small side, but was declared healthy at the hospital. By week 3 he became very fussy and had alot of gas. He had many bowel movements per day, all completely liquid and greenish. He appeared to be in pain most of the time, as if his muscles hurt. He would also bend backwards (C-shape), even when he was breastfed. He slept only for short periods and would rarely sleep longer than 30 min. He would quickly become overstimulated and he had the Moro-reflex all the time. He would often refuse to feed even though he was hungry and it was always best to breastfeed him when he was tired or asleep as he would be relaxed. His gums have been itching since he was 2 1/2 months, and is now teething really bad at 7 1/2 months (no teeth yet). He would always sweat alot during feeding and seemed very stressed, his arm would go back and forth. I had an abundance of milk, and a strong milk flow, which seemed to irritate him and he would often latch on and off and then not want to feed anymore if the milk flow was too strong. He would be burped and then not want to feed anymore after that. He did not want a pacifier or a bottle (with breast milk). He did not want to lay flat down on his back, he hated the baby carriage, he would scream in pain and arch his back. He wanted to be carried all the time. He would scream if I held his legs up too high while changing his diapers. He would only sleep if he slept close to me.

    I took him to a couple of doctors who all suggested it was colic. I took him to a physiotherapist who said it was all related to muscle tensions and used Voita therapy. We also tried naprapathy, different pediatricians etc etc. His blood work showed no allergies. I am vegan (have been for almost 20 years, I am 32 years old), but also changed my diet early on and ate no gassy foods, no spicy foods etc. I kept eliminating foods to the point where I almost didn’t eat anything, which I think caused my milk to decrease. I was and am still very stressed which I think has affected the amount of breast milk I have. I am petite in size and lost alot of weight because of stress and a poor diet. I have always taken vitamins, and extra prenatal supplements while pregnant & nursing. I was told to just wait it out, but always felt like it was more than just colic. I tried giving him fennel and chamomille tea, I drank alot of nursing tea. I have given him probiotics since he was 5 weeks old. He gets vitamin D (since 4 weeks), b12 and iron supplements (since 6 months).

    When he was 6 weeks old, we moved to the Canary Islands. I have tried to see different doctors here, but they all seem to not care too much about babies, and just told me to wait it out, that he would grow out of it. I have been going insane googling every spare minute and just recently found out that it seems he has all the symptoms of a baby with silent reflux. He rarely spits up, but has “wet burps” and I have noticed him swallowing now that I read about silent reflux. It breaks my heart to know that he probably has had heartburn for so long without us noticing. We have never heard of it and have felt like we’ve tried it all.

    He started holding his breath a few months ago which was very scary. It seems like he does that sometimes when he is placed on his back, before he burps, or gets too excited. He burps alot and seems to swallow air while eating and when he holds his breath.

    He is now no longer scared of everything, he gets overstimulated, but not as much as before. He seems happier and can now sit up by himself, which he loves as he does not want to lay on his back. He has had no problem laying on his stomach during tummy time. He still does not sleep well and often wakes up after 30 min, I have carried him almost 24/7 and have to pick him up so many times during the night. He likes to sleep on his left side.

    We took him to a doctor 2 weeks ago and described his symptoms. She agreed it could be silent reflux. She prescribed omeprazole 7 mg a day. We have reluctantly given him this medicine for 2 weeks. He hates it and cries so much. I don’t feel like it has helped that much either. I do not like giving my baby this kind of medicine and am desperate to find another solution. I googled homeopathy and found someone who wrote about nux vomica. From there I found your website tonight. I would love to stop the omeprazole and start your treatment.

    He started trying a few solids from 4 months because the doctor thought it would be good for him because of his loose stools (rice cereal, sweet potato). He gained weight very quickly after birth so the doctors always said there is nothing wrong with him, he looks fine! He is now almost 8 kg and 69 cm. He however does not like to eat solids, he seems hungry, but only eats a few spoons per meal. He wants to breastfeed all the time, and only one breast at a time. He often falls asleep while breastfeeding and is then difficult to burp. He wants to breastfeed many times during the night. Can this be because he is not getting enough food? I am worried that he is not getting enough food, and I don’t know if he is hungry or if it’s comfort feeding. He seems to want solid food even less now that he is on omeprazole, but he is extremely interested in our food, just not the cereals and purees I make for him. (We make all baby food from scratch, mostly organic, never baby food jars).

    Since I read about silent reflux we have elevated his bed and I always keep him upright after feedings. I have always used loose clothing and diapers. He sleeps mostly on his left side.

    He is such a happy boy when he feels good, but something is clearly bugging him. I cannot wait for this treatment to help my little charmer.

    I am a true believer that what affects mom affects the baby, so here’s some of my history: I was diagnosed with an under active thyroid in 2007 and put on Levothyroxin. I am now on a 100/125 mcg a day. I really don’t like taking this medication, but am told I have to take it for the rest of my life. I am very nauseous at night and especially in the morning. I am extremely stressed due to all the problems with my baby and constantly trying to figure out new ways to help him. I carry him around day & night and am exhausted. I almost never sleep. I rarely get out of the house. I eat a very poor diet because I am scared to eat something he will react badly to. I feel like I have absolutely no energy and I am just on “auto-pilot” doing what I have to, which is caring to his needs and not mine. I have gotten acne (stress & hormone related?) and have dark pigmentation spots on my face, from pregnancy, my whole body aches from carrying him around all day. Not sure if it is relevant, but I am also allergic to cats and dogs, and I have dry eyes due to lasik surgery. Are there any remedies I should take?

    All remedies must be ordered at the pharmacy here, so it will take me more than 24 hours to give you feedback once I start the treatment. I wanted to let you know in advance 🙂

    I have a few questions:
    What foods should I avoid?
    What are safe foods for me to eat?
    What foods are safe to give him?
    Wet dose – do I insert 3 drops of the remedy every time in the same bottle before I take it? I am afraid I haven’t understood it correctly.
    You mention that no other medication is to be given during your treatment – does this include paracetamol for severe teething?
    I have given him Chamomilla 6x and Hyland’s teething tablets, but not on a regular basis, what remedy can I give him for teething? He is in so much pain nowadays.
    You mention that Nat Phos will reduce my weight, I am already very skinny, will this affect my weight?
    These are the supplements I take each day: Prenatal multivitamin, spirulina, chlorella, flax seed oil, kelp, selenium, zinc, vitamin C, dha/epa from algea, B12 – Do you think any of them might affect my baby in a bad way?

    Again, I am sorry this is so long and probably all over the place. I rarely have time for myself, so this has been written during short periods while my baby boy slept over the coarse of many late night hours..

    Thank you thank you thank you in advance!

    All the best,
    Jeanette 😉

      “My name is Jeanette, I am from Norway, but I currently live in the Canary Islands (Spain). I am married to Bettina, who is from Denmark. My wife gave birth to our first son, who is 2 years old. I am writing to you because I need help with our second son, who is now 7 1/2 months old, who I think has silent reflux. “

      I am confused.

      Jeanette is always the name given to a girl and yet you state that you are Jeanette and that you are married to Bettina who is your wife. You also state:
      “I gave birth to my son by c-section, he weighed 2843 grams and was 48 cm long.”

      This ADDS to my confusion.

      However dealing with your baby son, 7 1/2 months old it seems obvious to me that he suffers from Baby GERD and I note that you have already read and intend using my default therapy which I have listed on my website.

      Since Bettina is a vegetarian there are no foods to be avoided.
      The Wet dose is many by inserting 3 drops of the remedy in Alcohol into 500ml water which you do not have to repeat every time you take a capful or 5ml.

      I would prefer that you avoid ALL drugs for baby including Paracetamol as the damage to the liver is too high a price to pay.

      I shall for the record copy my therapy for Baby GERD below:

      The remedy that has proved to be very effective for Baby GERD is:

      Nat Phos 6x dose 1 tablet dissolved in milk given immediately after a feed. You will not exceed 6 tablets in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after each feed.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby.You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over a year old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.

      You will also take Arnica 30c which you will order in the Liquid Dilution as per instructions below. Please note that the Arnica is NOT for baby.
      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily and Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.
      Report progress in 24 hours and as often as you wish on this thread.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Order the remedy in the Liquid pack in Alcohol, also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
      Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard at least 6 times before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
      Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this enhances the effect of the remedy on the user.

        Dear Joe,

        We are a same-sex couple, I thought I had explained that well enough since I wrote that I gave birth to him and that I am breastfeeding 🙂 We are two moms. I, Jeanette, am a vegan, so if I understand correctly there are no foods I should avoid? Not even foods that can cause acid reflux? (chocolate, tomato, fruit, onions, spicy foods etc) Also, is the list of supplements I take (as decribed in my first post) ok for my baby (breatsmilk)?

        Our baby boy is not vaccinated.

        Are there any foods I should avoid giving my baby?

        I will order Nat Phos 6x and Arnica 30c today, please note that it will take a few days to arrive. I will report progress as soon as I start using the remedies.

        Thank you for your quick reply. I am very grateful for your help!

          Could you also answer my questions in my previous post concerning food for me and my baby? Thank you!

            Dear Joe,

            I have now given my baby boy Nat Phos for 24 hours (and I have taken Arnica wet dose twice daily and Nat Phos 2 tablets 3 times after meals). I haven’t seen much improvement yet, but he seems a little happier, which is great! He still sleeps very little and wants to eat all night. He has also got his first cold and a bad cough, so this might also play a part.

          • Jeanette PK says:

            Dear Joe,

            I have now given my baby nat phos for 5 days and he has not gotten any better. In fact, it seems like he is spitting up more now. He has silent reflux so I am not used to him actually spitting up. What should I do now? Thank you again!

            • Joe says:

              I believe that it is now time to start him off on Nux Vomica 30c which you will give him in the Wet dose.
              (NOT FROM THE BOTTLE YOU BOUGHT FROM THE PHARMACY WHICH IS ALCOHOL).

              You will give it twice daily and report.

    My baby is 6 months old and throws up a bottle almost every night. He is teething very bad he has 5 teeth already. I recently ordered the two medicines yall have been talking about. Do you think this will help. He gags alot…always has the hiccups…I often hear his belly gurgling. I also read that teething increases their stomach acid so I’m just hoping this will help. Every night we just wait for him to vomit and sometimes it wakes him up from a dead sleep. He starts crying and minutes later he throws up about 3 xs. Any input you may have would be greatly appreciated. Sincerely Exhausted MoM!

      Glad to note that you have already ordered the 2 remedies I have advocated:
      Nat Phos 6x
      Nux Vomica 30c

      Please note however that the Nux V is NOT to be used unless he does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x which is my standard remedy for Baby GERD.

      You should discover that he will do so within a few minutes after the first dose when he will not gag and will give you the chance to sleep.

      Report his response in 24 hours and you will of course give a full tablet dissolved in milk or water after every feed.

    Dear Mr. De Livera,

    My son was born 11 weeks early. He is currently 4 months old but adjusted is only 6 weeks. He weighs 11 1/2 lbs. He is primarily breastfed (pumped in a bottle really). He was diagnosed with reflux while in hospital. He was prescribed Zantac. I was variable about giving it to him, and basically only administered when I noticed reflux symptoms cropping up. (admittedly not the right thing to do, but I hated giving him a med he didn’t like and which I had been told by the nurses wasn’t a real fix anyway)
    In an effort to get off the meds a few weeks ago, I found your remedy through google searches. I started it (though now realizing it wasn’t the current dosage you recommend) and saw some improvement, but then he developed a congestion so I stopped. After my Ped decided he wasn’t sick, but the congestion is likely from reflux, he upped the Zantac dose. The congestion did not go away, so after another dr. visit, the Zantac was maxed. Ped also prescribed a nebulizer treatment, and two other doctors indicated that they feel he has bronchiolitis. He has not had any fever, so no other treatment.
    My son is a ‘silent refluxer’. He rarely spits up and not much. He does show discomfort, chewing, gagging and bouts of pain, usually within an hour after eating. He also has apnea episodes and sometimes bradychardias. I do my best to keep him more upright most of the time.
    I plan to start your treatment as described above multiple times (so no need to repeat) but what I am concerned about is the congestion. It’s been two weeks. The nebulizer treatments might be helping, but it’s hard to tell yet (been 3 days). Is there anything you might recommend to help with that?
    Anything advice is welcome.
    Thanks

    • Joe says:

      Kir

      It is very likely that the ‘congestion’ you report is due to baby inhaling his reflux, into the lungs thereby causing his suspected Bronchitis.

      It is also very likely that my Nat Phos 6x therapy will stabilise both his Reflux and his Bronchitis.

      Suggest you start him off on the Nat Phos 6x ASAP giving a full tablet immediately after a feed dissolved in your milk or water.

      You will of course STOP ALL DRUGS.

      You will report his progress in 24 hours after the first dose.

    Dear Joe,
    I read you rarely hear fron mothers when their baby gets better, so here I am reporting about two months after I started giving my baby Nat Phos. He is now 3 1/2 months old and his reflux has improved tremendously. I now only give him one tablet, two times a day – morning and night, immediately after a feed. He still needs it, i have tried not giving it to him at all over a few days and he started sticking out his tongue again and having very bad breath. But he did not spit up!
    Thank you very much for your precious advice! 🙂

      Thank you for reporting the current status of your baby. I am glad to learn that he has improved and that you are already cutting down on the Nat Phos which is only to be used as necessary and then stopped.

      It will be good to know how your baby progress into childhood and I would appreciate if you report his progress from time to time.

      It is just that I have helped literally hundreds of babies with my therapy —“Joepathy” as the remedy I prescribe, Nat Phos 6x is my discovery and is not used by other homeopaths as they have not been taught that it is by far more effective in comparison to the standard remedies they are taught to prescribe in college.

      I am not qualified but have studied the same text books they have used and have developed my own therapy which differs from theirs. Mine works while their classical Homeopathic remedies usually do not.

      I am 85 years old and Homeopathy is my Hobby to which I am decicated and if you are interested in my therapy, you can read about it on my Website.

    hi joe was referred to your website by yourself from homopathoc forum. my baby is 3 weeks old and showing signs of silent reflux..no vomiting…and regular bowel movements ( up to 6 a day) signs im seeing are pain and crying when feeding and being burped..arching back..swallowing and some times gagging after feeds..fussiness and restless not sleeping much unless held..he is formula fed. I purchased nat phos 6x cell salt tablets 10 grams… my questions are do I start off with 1 full tablet? how much milk or water do I dissolve the tablet in? how many tablets in 24 hours? thanks for your help look forward to hearing from you

    • Joe says:

      I prefer not to be addressed as “Joe” except by my peers and close friends, as in my country Sri Lanka, there is a certain modicum of respect reserved for age.

      I am 85 years old.

      Please follow the therapy below and start with half tablet and report progress in 48 hours.

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed to hundreds of babies which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy that has proved to be very effective for Baby GERD is:

      Nat Phos 6x dose 1 tablet dissolved in milk given immediately after a feed.
      You will not however exceed 6 tablets in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after each feed.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby.You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over a year old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.
      Report progress in 24 hours and as often as you wish on this thread.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      • klouise says:

        hello sir
        bany has had the 6 doses within 24 hours. things have definitely improved but not 100%. the feeds were pain free until about 7pm where he started showing 1 or 2 signs of the reflux but not all signs, first night feed he was an angel no pain during feed and slept 2 hours, 2nd night feed he showed all the reflux signs was clearly in pain, gave him his 4th NP dose, morning feed was same all signs there. do I carry on with NP until all signs have gone? I dissolved np in about 5 mls of milk didnt completely dissolve tho… am I doing something wrong. look forward to hearing from you. kirsty.

        • Joe says:

          “bany has had the 6 doses within 24 hours. things have definitely improved but not 100%”

          I believe that his digestive process has stabilized but it may take a few days before a 100% improvement is noticed.

          You will continue with the current therapy and report in 48 hours.

          • klouise says:

            dear sir.. My baby has started showing signs of the refkux again…fuss whe feeding and gagging..clearing his throat. please advice me what to do..his sti taking 1 nat phos aftet feeds. thank you.

            • Joe says:

              Can you get Nux Vomica 30c in pellets in your city?
              NV will reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x and will help baby to tide over his temporary problems with his digestion.

              The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

              Order the remedy in the Ethanol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
              Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
              Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
              Insert 3 drops of the remedy or 6 pellets into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
              Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done at least 6 times before sipping a capful of the bottle as prescribed.

              You will give baby just 1 teaspoonful twice daily.

              Report progress in 48 hours.
              You will STOP the NV as soon as baby is OK.
              You will continue with the Nat P for as long as it is helping baby.
              Are you taking 2 tablets after every meal?

          • klouise says:

            I am in the Uk so im not sure I will check the site that I purchased the nat phos from. will I have to make up a new remedy everytime I have to give baby the teaspoon out of the bottle? or can I use it from thebottle again? I am not taking the nat phos as I an formula feeding. thank you again.

          • klouise says:

            its giving me the option to buy pillules, tablets, granules or drops. please advice me on which optoion I choose.thanks

            • Joe says:

              Choose the DROPS which are Ethanol or Alcohol.

              Please note that you will continue with the Nat Phos TABLETS for both baby and you. The Nux V is for temporary use in the Wet dose and you will give baby just one teaspoonful twice daily before a feed.

          • klouise says:

            Thank you! if im giving baby just a teaspoon fron the 500 ml bottle can I use again when giving second dose? or does bottle need to be discarded and not used again? is it necessary for me to take nat phos if baby is formula fed?

            • Joe says:

              You will use the whole bottle and this should last you over 3 months.
              You will however STOP the Nux V as soon as baby shows improvement in his reflux.

              You will take Nat Phos 6x as instructed. It is absolutely safe and is NOT a drug.

          • klouise says:

            should the bottle be stored in the fridge and should I shake it everytime I give the remedy? also could the grunting and pain during and after feeding be trapped wind? if so would nat phos and NV help with that? thanks again

            • Joe says:

              You do not have to store it in the refrigerator.
              You will observe Baby’s response and report it in 48 hours.
              You will NOT give the Nux Vomica for over a few days as it is only meant for temporary use.

          • klouise says:

            hey sir. Gave my baby the NV yesterday have seen a slight improvement..the symptons I am still seeing are.. pain during feeding and not burping as well as should…however this is not every feed! gave him 1 dose of nv this morning shall I Continue with the nv? I am still giving NP as usual. thank u.

            • Joe says:

              I hope you realize that you CANNOT expect your baby to be CURED with just ONE DOSE of Nux Vomica.

              I have prescribed NV to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x which will hopefully help to stabilize his Baby GERD in a few days.

          • klouise says:

            oh no of course not he has had 4 doses over 2 days now. Do I stop giving hom nv wgen I see 100% improvement? when his gerd is stablized will it more than likely return thanks

            • Joe says:

              You have NOT INDICATED his response after 4 doses of Nux Vomica.

              You must realize that this information is vital to enable me to advise you.

              You have made 11 posts so far, some of which are on irrelevant matters, and if you still wish to continue using my therapy for your baby, I shall expect you to be more PRECISE in your statements.

              You must understand that I am doing a service to suffering humanity free of charge and the least I can expect from a patient is a full record of the response, in this case your baby’s response, to my therapy.

              You give me the impression that you seem to start typing on your computer whenever you come near it but you fail to record the more pertinent facts of his case to enable me to advise you.

              Read the many accounts of mothers on my Website, whose babies I have saved from the poisonous drugs that were prescribed by their pediatricians and who are now well on their path to childhood with my therapy aka “Joepathy”.

          • klouise says:

            his response is better! during some feeds there is still discomfort and fussines during and after feeding, but this is not eery feed like it was before,and he is finding it hard to burp sometimes however there is nomore gagging, frequent hiccup,constant clearing throat. I would like to continue using your therapy as my baby has definitely got alot better since using it and I do not wish to give him the medication thay my doctor wants to prescribe him. thanks

            • Joe says:

              Your last post is what I expected from you to enable me to evaluate the patient’s response to enable me to advise you further.

              You can try reducing his intake of milk per feed but you can feed more often to enable him to stabilize his digestive system which in many babies is not fully developed and results in the distress that your own baby suffered till you started on my therapy.

              Glad to note that you prefer my therapy to that prescribed by your pediatrician who will invariably give the dangerous PPI drugs which have violent side effects, some of which affect the mental development of the child as occurred in one case whom I rescued but too late.

  73. klouise says:

    no problem I respect your wishes.. thank you that has answered most of my questions.. apart from how much milk do I dissolve the tablet in? thanks will report tomorrow

  74. klouise says:

    dear sir! sorry its taken so long to get back to you myself and baby camr down with the flu. to update you I believe the reflux is pretty much non existent however he does seem to be suffering from quite alot of wind.. I am still giving him the nat phos…is there anything I can give him for the wins at all? thanks for your help.

  75. Miranda says:

    My son was diagnosed with severe acid reflux at 2 weeks old. We had a x-ray done on him and it showed the barium coming back up so they prescribed my son 1/2 tablet of prevacid once a day he’s now 6 weeks old and there is no change he barely sleeps at night due to constant gagging/choking on his spit up from his relfux. I keep him upright an hour after each feeding. I am exclusively breastfeeding also. My question is do you think this will be beneficial for my son and should i consult his pedi before trying this remedy?

    • Joe says:

      Please STOP THE PREVACID as it is dangerous for your baby.
      The Barium will constipate him. Do not ever give it to him again as it proves NOTHING.

      “My question is do you think this will be beneficial for my son and should i consult his pedi before trying this remedy?”

      Please do not insult me by asking for my “permission” to consult your pediatrician to give Nat Phos 6x which he would never have heard of. It is NOT A DRUG and it will be safe to state that I have helped HUNDREDS of babies to overcome their Baby GERD which is not unusual in babies for a few weeks till their digestive system takes over.

      Read the many cases of babies I have SAVED from the dangerous PPI Drugs like Prevacid, Zantac Omeprazole, and many others.
      THEY HAVE SERIOUS SIDE EFFECTS ON ADULTS WHEN USED IN THE LONG TERM AND ARE FAR MORE DANGEROUS TO BABIES.

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed to hundreds of babies which I hope will help your baby too.

  76. Hali says:

    The remedy above has been working wonders for my 2 month old. Is it safe to mix his liquid vitamins (tri-vi-sol) with a little water and 1 Nat phos tablet? I am trying to avoid placing in a bottle which has previously discouraged him from breastfeeding. I have also tried using the dropper with just the tablet and water, however he gags.
    Thank you.

  77. Roocha Shah says:

    Hi Joe,
    I am a mother of a 4month old baby girl who is suffering from infant acid reflux.the symptoms appeared first time when she was 6weeks old just after her first vaccination.We tried giving her small feeds more frequently and it worked at that time but she seemed to drink less then what she should ultimately and we switched back to her full bottles. Second episode occurred when she was 3.5 months, when she was spitting up so much, that we rushed to emergency. After that we got prescribed with zentac half a tablet everyday.
    I am generally a bit hesitant to give allopathic medicines to my baby so we would only give her half a tab a day when she is showing GERD symptoms and spitting up curdy milk almost every feed. Now at the age of 17weeks she is again having an episode of acid reflux.She has reduced the amount of milk she drinks and very unsettled since 3days. Her previous episode lasted for7-10 days and got better with lots of burping and upright time.But to see her in pain after each feed is very painful for us too. Her sleep time is around 14-15 hrs a day which has not changed but she makes loud snoring like noise while sleeping after feed, which i believe is due to her acid reflux. She is not constipated but passing a lot of wind today which seems also painful for her tiny tummy 🙁 She is a formula fed baby and had her 4 month vaccination a week ago.
    Please help us regarding this issue and prescribe some natural medications.
    I was going through natural options to cure her acid reflux and i came across a post on baby-centre site.

      I do NOT recommend that a baby is vaccinated in the manner that is done today even before leaving hospital after birth and later in a few months after. The reason is the fact that a baby’s body is not able to cope with the chemicals and attenuated viruses that are used which will result in a reaction usually accompanied with fever which is suppressed with an analgesic at that tender age. The chances of a baby being exposed to any viral infection up to a year is virtually nil and it is best to vaccinate after the baby is at least a year old, preferably twice that age when the body is better able to cope.

      I prefer not to be addressed as “Joe” except by my peers and close friends, as in my country Sri Lanka, there is a certain modicum of respect reserved for age.

    Mr. Delivera, can I also thicken my milk with formula / eg. Gaviscon / I gave my baby fisrt half tablet yesterday at 2am, tablets here in Slovakia are 90g so half a dose is 45grams, please is that OK ? thanks a lot bibiana kindest regards from Slovakia

    • Joe says:

      I cannot advise you about the weight of a tablet of Nat Phos 6x as I have never had occasion to check the weight of one and do not have the possibility of doing so here in office.

      Since you have got NP 6x already you can give her 1/4 of a tablet and observe and report her response.

      The standard NP tablet which is internationally used is 4mm Ø and is 3mm in thickness. I prefer to give the minimum dose and prescribe half tablet and if this works all is well. Otherwise I prescribe a full tablet as NP is NOT a drug and can be used very safely by anyone including babies.

      I am concerned to read your statement:
      “can I also thicken my milk with formula / eg. Gaviscon”

      I am copying the report on Gaviscon from Wikipedia:

      “The formulation of Gaviscon varies by manufacturer. The three active ingredients in Reckitt Benckiser’s version are sodium alginate, a bicarbonate (either sodium or potassium in variants) and an antacid (calcium carbonate).[4][5] The GlaxoSmithKline variant lists only antacids as its active ingredients (aluminum hydroxide and either magnesium carbonate or magnesium trisilicate). Alginic acid and sodium bicarbonate are listed as inactive ingredients.[6][7]
      The combination of alginic acid and a bicarbonate forms a layer on the contents of the stomach, which prevents stomach acid from refluxing up into the esophagus.[8] If reflux does occur the protective barrier is the first to contact the esophageal mucosa, instead of gastric contents.[9]”

      DO NOT USE THIS DRUG TO ‘THICKEN YOUR MILK’ as this will only make your baby’s problem much worse.

      You will only use Nat Phos 6x as instructed.

      In the meanwhile you are advised to order it from Hylands whose products are accepted in Homeopathy.

  83. bibituana says:

    dear all if anyone else is reading this post, please can u advise ?

    Hi Joe,

    My 4 week old has silent reflux and a poor digestive system. She does not actually vomit. Will I try nat ohos 6x on it’s own first. Do I give one full tablet after each feed or a half tablet. I am taking nat phos in liquid form twice a day. Is the liquid form a good thing for me to take. Any other recommendations. or advise.

    • Joe says:

      If you have already given baby Nat Phos 6x, you will know by now that it has helped her as NP works almost immediately after a feed to help stop the reflux. It is unusual for a baby at 4 weeks to show reflux and it is possible that this may be due to giving formula. I would recommend that you give her your breast milk as this is the Ultimate Food for a new born baby if you are not breast feeding her.

      You stated:
      “I am taking nat phos in liquid form twice a day. Is the liquid form a good thing for me to take”

      Please note that Nat Phos 6x is always in Tablet form. The higher potencies are in alcohol and are not to be used by you or baby.

      You can also take the NP 6x dose 2 tablets twice daily after food to reduce your weight and also to pass the effect to baby if you breast feed her.

    I am writing to ask your advice for my almost 14 month old son. He weighs 27 lbs. He had reflux when he was born. We put him on Xantac, but that did not work. Then the dr prescribed a stronger ppi, but it made him constipated and I felt uneasy about giving it to him. I took him off the ppi and then took him to a D.O. that specializes in osteopathic manipulation. His spitting up disappeared from that visit on, but he still seemed sensitive to my breast milk. Eventually we discovered that he is especially sensitive to dairy. I eliminated it from my diet, periodically adding it back as advised by the pediatrician to see how he responds. When I eat dairy, he wakes even more frequently at night than usual and seems to be in a lot of pain. We have given him Hyland’s colic tablets off and on, but haven’t seen consistent results as far as his sleeping patterns. At 14 months, he still wakes 3-10 times a night. We had him tested for allergies at 11 months. He has no food allergies at this point. The ped and the allergist advised introducing dairy to him and back into my diet at 12 months. I have tried that, and he is waking more frequently, jerking with pain in his sleep, and the reflux suddenly seems to have returned, although he doesn’t always spit up. He spits up occasionally, but mostly, I just hear him reflux and then swallow it back down. I have read about your GERD remedy, but noted that most of the people with inquiries have newborns. Our son is older so I wondered if the dosing/procedure would be different. He is our third baby with reflux. We tried to sleep train our first and I feel that caused emotional harm to her. Our third baby (our second one with reflux) suffered waking at each sleep cycle until 9 months of age when we started her on prevacid. She was on it for 9 months and then we weaned her when it became controversial. She was fine without it then, but never has become a good sleeper. I’m worried about this baby never learning to sleep well. We have tried so many solutions and we are so tired! Please help! One thing I feel we have done correctly, my gut told me not to immunize him. He has yet to be immunized at 14 months. Thank you!

    • Joe says:

      It seems a shame that physicians both homeopathic and allopathic refuse to use the safest and most effective remedy (not to be confused with a drug), Nat Phos 6x. This is a Biochemic Cell Salt which works in some miraculous manner to accelerate the digestion of food and propels it down the gut, thereby relieving the patient of GERD.

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed to hundreds of babies which I hope will help your baby too. Your 14 month old baby can be given a full tablet of Nat Phos 6x which you can buy from the nearest Homeopathic pharmacy if you live in India.

      The remedy that has proved to be very effective for Baby GERD is:

      Nat Phos 6x tablet dissolved in milk given immediately after a feed. Start with half tablet but if the response is not as expected, you may increase to a full tablet but you will not exceed 6 tablets in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after each feed.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby.You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over a year old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD. I note that you have not immunized him up to now and you can do so after he is over 2 years old.
      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.
      Report progress in 24 hours and as often as you wish on this thread.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

    My daughter was perfect the first weeks of life and suddenly my colsitrum turned to milk and the acid reflux began. I am off gluten, and dairy. I tried your Nat. phos. Therapy after about 6 days it stopped working. And she started throwing up the remedy. I waited another week and her reflux was moderate …. This morning I gave her the Nat. Phos and it seemed to make situation worse. What would you suggest. She is six weeks on Friday. She tends to go to the bathroom ever 4-6 days which I think might be related because when I give her a bottle of my pumped colsitrum she is good for two days, and has a bowel movement couple hours later.

    • Joe says:

      Glad to note that you have read my therapy for Baby GERD and that you have already given your 6 week old baby Nat Phos 6x which helped her initially but does not do so today. I presume that the NP you used was the tablet as the Liquid is not the Biochemic Cell Salt. Please confirm.

      I was interested to learn from your report that when your Colostrum (not Colsitrum) turned to milk, that your baby reacted with her current Reflux. This is unusual.

      Let us start by giving her half tablet before and the balance after a feed and observe her response. Tablet to be dissolved in milk.

      Order Nux Vomica 30c in the standard pellets which you may have to use if the Nat Phos therapy does not help. Please note that you are not to give the Nux V to baby till I instruct you to do so.

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed to hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

  87. Sara says:

    I have tried the nat phos. In both directed ways. It worked initially then suddenly stopped. I started giving directly after feeding one pellet because half did not work. After three days it seemed to stop working, so I tried half before and half after feedings and she seemed more agitated. She spit it up and has wet burps that are acidy (she makes a face of disgust). Throwing her body all around until it finally stops. I’m using the Nat. phos. Hylands pellets. Would the num vomica 30c help the situation and should it be combined with Nat. Phos.? Also I’m assuming the Boiron – Nux Vomica 30c is what I should order?

    Thanks for your help.

    • Joe says:

      Add the Nux Vomica 30c and if you cannot get the liquid dilution you can use the pellets.
      You will use 6 pellets in a bottle of spring water and give her a teaspoonful twice daily.

    I meant I’m using the Nat. phos 6x tablets

  89. Sara says:

    I added the Nux. Vomica on Friday and it has not improved her reflux in fact I think it’s made a bit worse could there be another remedy that would work better.

    I read about dioscorea villosa could this remedy possibly help my daughter. What are your thoughts?

    From a caring mom to a helpful man.

    • Joe says:

      I am copying a post I made to another mother whose baby was proving difficult with her GERD and not responding to my default therapy of Nat Phos 6x + Nus Vomica 30c

      “Your Baby presents a very difficult case to treat and we will have to use a few remedies to observe which will help her to overcome her Baby GERD. The problem you may have however is that they may not be available in the UAE.

      Let us start with Aethusa Cynapium 6 which is a remedy that will help her to overcome any Lactose intolerance.
      You will also get Robinia Pseudacacia 6 which is a remedy that will reduce the secretion of acid.

      You will advise me as soon as you get these remedies”

  90. Sara says:

    Sir,

    I have one question are there any adverse reactions to using these remedies. I have not experienced any adverse reactions from Homeopathic remedies but when it comes to such a small child I just need to ask.

    • Joe says:

      Have you observed any adverse reactions on your own baby?

      No adverse reactions have been reported by mothers who used my Nat Phos 6x therapy for their babies. Some have reported like you that the NP did not work alone and I have had in a few cases to supplement it with other remedies.

      Nat Phos 6x is NOT a drug. It is a Biochemic Cell Salt. Look it up on Google. The PPI drugs that are prescribed by doctors cause more damage to their patient than help cure them. Read the pathetic cases of mothers who have dosed their children for years on PPI drugs and the results they wreaked on them on my website.

      You have not reported your baby’s current response to my therapy and I shall be interested to learn what remedies you are giving and baby’s response.

  91. Candice says:

    Dear Dr. De Livera,

    I have spent a long time reading your website and many of the responses on this page, and have purchased Nas Phos 6x. I will start my so on it today, and will report back soon. Here is our background:

    My son is ten months old, and has silent reflux that is giving him sleep apnea and trouble breathing. He is on an oxygen tank 24/7. After testing for two weeks to find out the cause of his low oxygen and sleep apnea, doctors concluded that he has silent reflux. They prescribed him Prevacid. I know the dangers of PPI’s and will not give him this medication. So I started Googling natural remedies for acid reflux, and found your remedy. I’m very hopeful that this will work. Thanks for dedicating your time to helping babies. We will report back soon.

    Sincerely,
    Candice
    United States

    • Joe says:

      “My son is ten months old, and has silent reflux that is giving him sleep apnea and trouble breathing. He is on an oxygen tank 24/7.”

      I would like to have more data on the reason for your son to be on Oxygen, 24/7. It is likely that his sleep Apnea is due to his reflux and his natural reflex wakes him up to prevent choking. This is an interesting condition and I shall be very interested to learn of his response in the next 48 hours after the Nat Phos 6x stabilises his reflux.

      You are very fortunate that you located my website and you may like to read of the many mothers whose babes I have been helping to overcome their Reflux and Baby GERD.

      • Candice says:

        Hi Dr. De Livera,

        I think you are correct about the cause of the apnea. We did a sleep study last week at the hospital, and when not on oxygen, he stopped breathing about 50 times. With oxygen, however, he was fine. I never would have guessed acid reflux, but that is their first diagnosis.

        I know it hasn’t been 48 hours yet, but I wanted to ask a question to make sure I’m doing this correctly. This is very important to me, so I don’t want to make a mistake. I have a medical condition called IGT that doesn’t allow me to make enough breast milk for my son. I was devastated when I was diagnosed 8 months ago. So we have to use formula. When administering the Nat Phos 6x, should it be in a bottle with the formula during a regular feeding, or given after the feeding in a separate serving of formula? Thanks for taking the time to read this. I don’t want to assume either way, and figured I would ask the expert.

        Thank you again for your time.

        Sincerely,

        Candice

        • Joe says:

          I have often had occasion to reassure parents that Nat Phos 6x is NOT a drug. It is a Biochemic Cell Salt which you can read about on the web. It works by an amazing chemical process involving the cells in the blood and is absolutely safe in use for both babies and adults. You do not have to be precise in how you give him the NP and you can dilute it in his formula as he may not like to take it dissolved in water.

          You have however not confirmed that you have given it to him and that the NP has made some difference in his “Sleep Apnea” but reading between the lines, I believe that I have diagnosed that the root cause of his problem is due to Acid Reflux and I shall await your next post confirming that he is OK without the O2. It is obvious that he could not be tethered to the end of an Oxygen tank for the rest of his life.

          I shall be interested to have more data on his case with details of when and how he was diagnosed with sleep apnea and ordered to be hooked on to an O2 tank and how both baby and you the parents coped with this addition to his life. If you have any photographs of baby tethered to the tank, I would like to have them but you may have to send them to me by email on:

          joedelivera@gmail.com

          As for your IGT you may like to know that Arnica 6c in the Wet dose taken thrice daily will stimulate secretion of breast milk and many mothers have confirmed that this is the answer to the problem. In your case there is a possibility that this may not work if you have not breast fed baby for over a few weeks but it is still worth a try.

  92. Candice says:

    Hi Dr. De Livera,

    It has been 48 hours since we started our son on Nat Phos 6x. It is very difficult to tell if there has been any improvement, since he has silent reflux – meaning he doesn’t spit up. However, he is sleeping a lot better as of lastnight. I’m hoping it is a result of the Nat Phos 6x. Usually he tosses and turns every night and cries from pain, but he slept through the night lastnight. So this is a good sign.

    That being said, the only way to tell for sure if this is working is to hook him up to an oxygen monitor. Our insurance company is going to send us one next week, and at that time we will be able to monitor his oxygen levels both during the day and at night. So until we get the oxygen monitor next week, is it alright to continue the Nat Phos 6x, 1 tablet with every bottle, 6 times a day?

    If this works, I’ll definitely send more details and photos. It looks promising so far.

    As for the arnica 6c in the wet dose, is this safe to use during pregnancy? I am 2 months pregnant with our second baby.

    Sincerely,

    Candice

    • Joe says:

      You are in a better position than I am to judge whether or not my diagnosis is correct. From your latest report it can be presumed that there is a distinct improvement in his response and this therapy with Nat Phos 6x can be continued very safely as it is not a drug. You should use the added assistance provided by your insurers who seem to me, to be interested in your baby’s case. I would appreciate if you will keep me advised of his progress from time to time.

      Since you are 2 months pregnant, I do not think that you need continue with the Arnica unless you feel tired or need some pep up. In any case Arnica will not harm your baby as you are taking a very minuscule dose by using 3 drops Arnica 30c in 500ml water and you take just a teaspoonful daily.

    Dear Sir,

    My son is 12 months old and suffers from acid reflux and has been on Prevacid since he was 4 months. We are now trying to wean him off the medication with only half his normal dose. It’s now been 2 weeks at this dose and he’s starting to show symptoms of hiccuping, coughing at night, wet burps and grabbing at his chest and throat. He is also now getting a diaper rash every day. I’m assuming it all has to do with the acidity levels going up. I recently read about Nat Phos 6x and came across your site. I’d like to try your remedy and wish I had known about it months ago because I can see how dependent he has become on the Prevacid. How should I proceed? My son is also still nursing. Can I take the Nat Phos 6x and have it passed through my milk?

    Thank you.

    • Joe says:

      You can give him Nat Phos 6x after every feed not to exceed 6 tablets daily as per instructions below:

      • akabrien says:

        Thank you. I ended up giving him a full tablet after meals. He slept better last night but still coughed during the night. He is still grabbing at his throat and chest today but the diaper rash isn’t as bad. Overall there seems to be improvement. I will keep giving him the full tablet and I will continue taking 2 tablets after my meals. I’ll let you know if there are any changes. Thank you again.

        • Joe says:

          Glad to learn that your son responded to my therapy after many months of being given the dangerous PPI drug Prevacid which would have affected his growth. Unfortunately the medical profession refuses to accept this simple Homeopathic remedy Nat Phos 6x which is NOT a drug and which is a Biochemic Cell Salt which is absolutely safe in use. You will discover in a few days that he does not need the assistance of this remedy as his digestive system is helped to stabilize on its own.

          If his nappy rash continues to be a problem please feel free to ask for the remedy to treat it.

          • akabrien says:

            An update: my son is now putting his hand in his mouth and almost gagging like he’s trying to scratch his throat. He also cries like he is in pain. He does this sometimes while he is eating solid food and also in his car seat. I am concerned about this. We had him on the medication because there was so much acid erosion that he was gagging and choking in his sleep. He has silent reflux so it just comes up into his throat and goes back down. He does not spit up. Is there something in addition to nat phos 6x that I should give him? Thank you.

            • Joe says:

              You can add Nux Vomica 30c in the Wet dose which you can make by inserting 6 pellets of the remedy into a 500ml bottle of spring water. You will give him a dose which is a teaspoonful twice daily between feeds.

  94. akabrien says:

    Thank you. How many days should he be on each?

    • Joe says:

      You have not indicated Baby’s response to my therapy.
      Has his GERD status improved or not?

      You consulted me 5 days ago and indicated that your 12 month old has been on Prevacid for 8 months.
      I prescribed Nat Phos 6x and added Nux Vomica 30c in the Wet dose and you now inquire for how long you should give these remedies.

      You will give them to him as long as he needs it. NP is NOT a drug like Prevacid that has dangerous side effects which you can read by doing a search for “The danger of PPI Drugs”.

      Nat Phos 6x is a Biochemic Cell Salt and can be given very safely till his digestive system takes over especially after giving him solids.

      You will stop the Nux Vomica as soon as you see any improvement in his GERD status.

      • akabrien says:

        I’m not sure if anything is better. He has had a fever over the last day so I have not tried the Nux Vomica yet. He is still coughing, putting his hand in his throat, waking up at night and today his wet burps are back. This all started before the fever. There is something called acid rebound that happens if someone is taken off a PPI so I believe that may be happening. He is also pulling on both ears which could be ear infection or teething but acid reflux can also cause ear problems. I am continuing the Nat Phos 6x for now. Thank you for letting me know how long to use both.

        • akabrien says:

          He is doing much better. I haven’t seen any reflux symptoms in a few days. Thank you!

          • Joe says:

            Thank you for confirming that your Baby’s GERD is now finally stabilized and hopefully cured.

            I referred back to your first post when you consulted me on April 25 and informed me that you had been giving him Prevacid which you must know is a PPI drug which has been accepted as having dangerous side effects for adults and more so for babies. But the medical profession prefers to poison their unsuspecting patients instead of using my therapy which is based on Sodium Phosphate and acts by accelerating the passage of food down the gut. This action is different to the PPI drugs which inhibit the production and release of acid HCl into the stomach and create side effects which are dangerous and long lasting especially to babies. You state that you gave Baby Prevacid for the last 8 months and the side effects will manifest themselves in the future.

            You now have the strength of conviction to promote my therapy which is not based on the classical therapy you will be prescribed by other Homeopaths. I have ‘discovered’ Nat Phos and have identified it as the safest and the most effective remedy to treat GERD in both adults and babies.

            It is my hope that you will promote this simple therapy to your friends and tell them how your baby suffered with you and is now CURED.

            I would appreciate if you will please state your Baby’s case in your own words in a post which I shall publish in the “Articles” chapter on my website to prove that my Joepathy works in some wondrous ways.

  95. akabrien says:

    I don’t think my son is ready yet. I tried to stop using the Nat Phos 6x and he started showing reflux symptoms again. Do you think he needs it for a little while longer?

    • Joe says:

      I believe that you misunderstood my last post to you where I requested you to record in your own words your Baby’s case where he was solely dependent on drugs to treat his GERD and when you started on my therapy with Nat Phos 6x, he turned a new page in his life and was OK almost immediately.

      I did NOT request you to STOP the Nat Phos as he will need it for some more time in the future to help digest his feed. Feel free to report his progress from time to time to enable me to advise you.

  96. akabrien says:

    Thank you for the clarification. I will continue the same doseage and check in with you again. Yes I am more than happy to give a testimonial. It has been working and others should know about it.

    • Joe says:

      Glad to note that your baby is OK today.
      A statement from the mother on my website is far better that a quote of how a baby suffering from chronic GERD was helped by “Joepathy”

      • akabrien says:

        My son is 13 months old and is Prevacid free thanks to Mr. De Livera’s therapy “Joepathy”. My son was first diagnosed with “silent” acid reflux around 6 weeks old. He began gagging in his sleep so we took him to the Children’s ER. We were told to elevate his crib and hold him upright for 30 minutes after nursing. He continued to gag in his sleep and breathing problems ensued. The second ER trip, they gave me diet restrictions and provided us with a “danny sling” to keep our son more upright during sleep. A few days later my son was screaming in pain for hours and the only thing that would console him was breastmilk but each time I nursed him, he would be screaming again 30 minutes later. Again, we went to the ER and this time they had us stay for more testing which confirmed the reflux. My son was given Zantac which seemed to help for a while then his symptoms returned. We tried chiropractic and acupuncture but it didn’t help. We were severely sleep deprived and desperate by the time we saw a pediatric GI specialist who recommended Prevacid which he began using at 4 months old. We tried weaning him from Prevacid around 9 months with no success. At 12 months, we were determined to have him off of it. We began this by giving him half his normal dose. He did well for 2 weeks, then he began showing reflux symptoms again. This is when I consulted Mr. De Livera for his therapy. We started the Nat Phos 6x and I stopped the Prevacid. He did well the first couple days and then he seemed to still be suffering from reflux symptoms. I also believe he was having acid rebound which can happen when stopping the PPI medication. I continued Mr. De Livera’s therapy and in less than two weeks my son’s reflux symptoms were gone. It’s been almost a month and he is still symptom free. Thank God! We are very grateful for Mr. De Livera’s help. I only wish I had known about this therapy from the beginning. It works and anyone who’s had a child with reflux needs to know about it!

  97. Sarah says:

    My 8 month old son was diagnosed with reflux at an early age. We had been managing it with zantac and I have been on an elimination diet (dairy, soy eggs, wheat and beef) since he was 5 weeks. He was doing great until 4.5 months and since then he hasn’t stopped being sick. He has had bronchiolitis, pneumonia, multiple ear infections, huge coughing fits, difficulty nursing, decreased appetite and a chronic wheeze. My pediatrician keeps disregarding his reflux as the cause when I suggest it. This past week I decided I needed to see someone else so I saw a pedi GI who wants to put him straight on to nexium and have a upper GI barium swallow ASAP. Next I saw a holistic dr who believes he needs allergy testing and that he has lots of food allergies/ sensitivities causing all of this. Oh and he has yet another ear infection now ( antibiotics again..ugh!!) I just want to get the reflux under control now so I can figure out the allergies next month. I would like to use the nat phos. I have read how you have prescribed it but I was curious how long I should be giving the full pill after each feeding and how long he will be taking the nat phos? Also I started it yesterday and I was wondering if it had any interaction with the antibiotics? Also they seem to melt right away when I take them. Can I give the pill directly to him or does I have to be melted in the milk first? Thanks for your help!!

    • Joe says:

      It breaks my heart to read the case records of babies like your 8 month old son who presented a simple case of Baby GERD which could and SHOULD have been treated with my default therapy using Nat Phos 6x Biochemic Cell Salt, which would have settled the problem initially when he was just 5 weeks old. I just shudder to think of the untold damage done to his tiny body during the past 6 months and can visualize the trauma of both you parents who had no alternative other than to follow the therapy prescribed by the pediatricians who had been schooled to only prescribe the dangerous PPI drugs like Nexium. This drug and all others of the PPI (Proton Pump Inhibitor) group should be BANNED from the Pharmacopea but BIG PHARMA will ensure that voices like mine are stifled as they depend on the sales of this group of drugs even though the FDA has warned the public that they are not for use over a long period.

      The many serious ailments you listed:
      “He has had bronchiolitis, pneumonia, multiple ear infections, huge coughing fits, difficulty nursing, decreased appetite and a chronic wheeze.” are only part of the surface damage done to him and your baby will pay the price for the after effects of these drugs in later life.

      You have read my therapy aka “Joepathy” for Baby GERD and all you have to do is to follow it precisely as prescribed.

      You will have to use your discretion in stopping the antibiotics which may be essential to ensure that his current infections are stabilized and use the Nat Phos 6x therapy starting with half tablet before and half after a feed preferably mixed in milk or water.

      You will discover that in just 24 hours he will be OK.

      You will report progress in 48 hours.

  98. Sarah says:

    Reporting back on my sons progress. He seems to be doing ok. I stopped the zantac Sunday and have been following the 1/2 tab before and then1/2 after feedings. Today he seems to have a little cough and a very runny nose with congestion. He also spit up today which he hasn’t done in a very long time. He is eating well and it does seems to be helping a bit. Any suggestions are welcomed. Thanks

    • Joe says:

      Continue the therapy which you state has helped him.
      It is possible that he has caught a cold which can cause the present problems.

  99. Elda says:

    Good morning, I have a premature baby born at 28 weeks. He is now 3 months and 2 weeks adjusted. My son has reflux. He spits up everytime after every feed and when lays down a little after. He drinks 2.5oz of formula every 3 hours. He takes zantac for the reflux. Please help me I feel horrible for him. Justbso you are aware he is also on caffeine for apnea.

    • Joe says:

      I have helped 2 cases of preemies whose mothers were desperate for a Homeopathic remedy to replace the standard PPI drug like Zantac prescribed for your baby. The remedy I prescribed was Nat Phos 6x and I hope that it will also help your baby to overcome his reflux. Nat Phos is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is not a drug like Zantac which I presume was effective when it was first prescribed but lost its ability to help his reflux in a few days when presumably your paediatrician increased the dose, which made a bad situation worse.

      I note that you refer to feeding him formula and this seems a pity as a baby especially a Preemie, is best fed Breast Milk. If you are unable to do so due to low supply, you can increase it with Arnica 6c in the Wet dose on which I shall give you more information if you would like me to do so.

      I also note that he suffers from Apnea for which you are already giving him Caffeine. Did you mean the Homeopathic product or the drug?

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed to hundreds of babies which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy that has proved to be very effective for Baby GERD is:

      Nat Phos 6x tablet dissolved in milk given immediately after a feed. Start with half tablet but if the response is not as expected, you may increase to a full tablet but you will not exceed 6 tablets in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after each feed.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby.You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over a year old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.
      Report progress in 24 hours and as often as you wish on this thread.

      Please note that I live in Sri Lanka where it is now nighttime.

    Thank you. I breastfed my son for the first 2.5 months and my supply has gone away. If you can please give some advise on how to produce more milk I would really appreciate it. He is on caffeine the drug precribed by doctor. I will go agead and buy the nat phos and get started for his reflux and report. Thank you.

    • Joe says:

      I canot understand how Caffeine can possibly help your baby who is a Preemie and the reason why your pediatrician prescribed it for him. You must know that Caffeine is accepted as the antidote to Homeopathic remedies and unless there is a valid reason for prescribing it for what you stated was Apnea, which as far as I know is unknown in babies, I would prefer that you stop it as it may antidote the action of the Nat Phos 6x which I have prescribed.

      I have prescribed Arnica 6c in the Wet dose to stimulate the mother to lactate and it has worked in many cases. In your case it will depend on the time you have not breastfed baby but is is indeed worth trying to observe if this will help.

      You will get the Liquid Dilution in Alcohol of Arnica 6c and insert just 3 drops into a 500ml bottle of Spring water and you will take a teaspoonful thrice daily. If you cannot get the Alcohol product you may use the standard pellets till you do get it when you will use 6 pellets in a bottle of water.

      Where do you live?

  101. Elda says:

    I am in the United States. Per Dr. He is prescribed caffeine citrate 1.2ml for prematurity apnea. Ita suppose to keep him up and not fall into deep sleep. Is this going to be a problem with the nat phos. If yes then I will start the nat phos on Monday when i leave his Dr. Appt.

    • Joe says:

      Did your baby show signs of Sleep Apnea to warrant prescribing Caffeine Citrate?
      Has it helped baby initially and how is the response now?

      How old was he when this drug was started and how old is he today.

      You can give the Nat Phos 6x in spite of the drug and report response.

  102. Elda says:

    He was born on 3/15/14 only 28 weeks gestation and weighed 2lbs. He is now 3 months old and weighs 6lbs. His original due date was suppose to be 6/5/14 so its like if he is only 3 weeks old. Yes he had lots of bradycardia and apnea when he was in the hospital. When he left hospital on 5/11/14 he was sent home on an apnea monitor to record any episodes and the caffeine. We have a dr appt this coming week to see how he is doing and possibly remove the caffeine.

    Regarding the nat phos, is it ok to place it under tongue and let it dissolve?

  103. RINA says:

    My 9 week old bottle fed son has reflux. He has been on Zantac for about a month now until I found you can help it without medication. The Zantac did help a lot with feeding however his sleep at night and during the day has not improved. I have purchased Nat Phos 6x(pill) & Nux Vomica 30c (pill). I started to give him the Nat Phos 6x dissolved in 1 tsp of water and use a syringe and give to him directly after the feeding however it seemed like the spitting up, which has been under control lately, got worse when i started him on the nat phos. Just need some direction at this point. How do i administer the Nat Phos 6x & Nux Vomica 30c and how frequently? Also, should I continue giving him the Zantac? How long should he be on this regimen? Thank you.

    • Joe says:

      I am glad to note that you have read the therapy I prescribe for Baby GERD or Reflux with Nat Phos 6x. This remedy is absolutely safe for use for Babies and Adults but I would not recommend that you use Nux Vomica 30c as this is a remedy which may only be used if it is essential and under supervision. It is not indicated for your baby right now till we observe his response for 48 hours after giving him the Nat Phos 6x which you will give dissolved in milk or water. You start with half tablet for a dose after every feed and if baby responds OK you will continue but if he does not, you will give him half before a feed. Some mothers have given a full tablet of Nat Phos dissolved in the milk but some babies have rejected the milk due to the taste difference.

      You will STOP the Zantac which is a PPI drug which causes severe side effects in adults and the effect on babies is best left unsaid. I am indeed very surprised that doctors will prescribe these drugs knowing fully well that they do cause these side effects which you can read about by doing a search on Google for “Side effects of PPI Drugs”.

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed to hundreds of babies which I hope will help your baby too.

    • RINA says:

      I apologize I forgot to add this to the original post. since giving him that NP he has been way crankier than he has been as if the reflux is the way it was before he was put on Zantac. Also, when he lets a burp go it seems to be causing him pain which didn’t happen before trying NP. I am really concerned that I have messed everything up and not really sure what to do at this point.

      • RINA says:

        sorry again I didn’t see you had responded to my first comment. For certain reasons he does not get breast milk but formula. so how would I change it to make it work for us? I live in California. We burp him very often as he has problems with trapped gas and doesn’t like to get the burp out.

        • Joe says:

          Baby’s response is not unusual if you have been giving him Zantac for some time and more especially if you gave him just half tablet of Nat Phos 6x. The stoppage of this dangerous drug Zantac has made some babies to react but he should normally stabilise within 12 hours or 3 feeds when the NP takes effect. Give him half tablet before and half after a feed and report his progress.

          It is also possible that the Formula you are giving him is difficult for his stomach to digest but let us continue with it for a few days and then evaluate if you should change it.

          Please remember that Nat Phos 6x is NOT a drug like Zantac. It is a Biochemic Cell Salt which works in an amazing manner to stimulate Peristalsis which then inhibits the problems with Reflux caused by excess HCl or Hydrochloric Acid.

  104. RINA says:

    I actually haven’t stopped giving him the Zantac quite yet, as I was waiting to see how to proceed with giving him the NP first. Since he was showing weird symptoms when I gave him the NP i stopped completely as I was confused on what/how I should be giving it to him.

    The formula he is on now is the best that worked for him, we had to switch a couple of times.

    I hate to ask you again, however I just want to make sure I do this right so I don’t screw up my son any more than he already is. Before you said to only give him half a tablet right after feeding and now you say to give half before and half after? Also, how much water do I use to dilute half a pill with? Another thing I saw in the blog is that someone said they used boiled water..does it matter what kind of water I use? Or should I use some of the formula to dissolve it? Thank you and sorry to ask so many questions I just want to make sure I am doing it correctly as his reflux is really getting to us.

  105. RINA says:

    Don’t mean to bother you, however I would really love to get my son off the Zantac as soon as we can. Just found out that the medication might be the reason why my son won’t sleep at night. But I really don’t want to take him of the medication and onto the NP without knowing how to administer it to him properly. Please see the pervious post for the questions. Thank you for all your help on this. It is greatly appreciated.

    • Joe says:

      I can see that you cannot make up your mind about using the therapy I have prescribed to literally hundreds of babies who were on Zantac and other more powerful PPI drugs which are accepted as dangerous for adults and far more dangerous for babies. PPI drugs have never worked in the long term to help Reflux in babies and you can read the accounts of hundreds of mothers on my website whose babies I have saved from agony with my Nat Phos 6x therapy.

      I shall copy my therapy again and it is up to you the parents to use it as prescribed or to reject it as you seem to have done up to now.

      If and when you decide to use my therapy and STOPPED the Zantac, you may post your next question to me.

    Thank you for your response. We have decided to go on with your therapy and have now stopped the Zantac completely. These were my questions to make sure I am giving it to my son correctly.

    Before you said to only give him half a tablet right after feeding and now you say to give half before and half after? Also, how much water do I use to dilute half a pill with? Another thing I saw in the blog is that someone said they used boiled water..does it matter what kind of water I use? Or should I use some of the formula to dissolve it?

    • Joe says:

      Glad to have your confirmation that you have STOPPED Zantac.

      Please be informed that Nat Phos 6x is NOT a drug. It is a Biochemic Cell Salt.
      Visit:
      http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biochemic_tissue_salt

      You may start with Half tablet. If it does not help baby you can increase to a full tablet as instructed.

      You boil water from the mains as it is chlorinated and chlorine instantly antidotes all Homeopathic remedies.

      I note that your baby is formula fed.
      Have you not breast fed him?

      Report progress in 24 hours.

  107. RINA says:

    For medical reasons I could not breastfeed him. House much water do I dissolved half a tablet in to give to my son?

    • Joe says:

      You are fortunate that even at my advanced age of 85, I do still have the patience to respond to inane questions such as yours, on how much water you should use to dissolve half a tablet of Nat Phos.

      Surely you must know that you cannot dissolve a tiny tablet in a whole glass of water when just a teaspoonful will do.

  108. RINA says:

    So sorry didn’t mean to ask stupid questions, I just want to make sure I do everything correctly the first time as I really want to help my son and our sanity. I really appreciate all our help. I will report what happens after 24 hours. Thank you.

  109. RINA says:

    update – So we have been giving our son 1/2 tablet immediately after each feeding however I am a bit concerned. We burp him really good and make sure we get everything out before we give him the dosage and then when we give him the dose he gets really crabby and then just spits up what seems to be a lot and probably most or all of the NP dose we just gave him. He seems to only do this when we give him the dose. Also, he has been passing a lot of gas when given the dose as well, enough to really notice. Not really sure what to do from here, please let me know how to proceed. Thank you for your guidance.

    • Joe says:

      I note that you are giving him just HALF tablet of Nat Phos 6x but that it does not help.
      The simple solution to this problem is to DOUBLE the dosage and give the balance half before a feed when you will discover that all is well.

      Looking back on my conversation with you, I note that I have prescribed half tablet before and half tablet after every feed.

      Any reason why you are giving him just HALF tablet today?

  110. RINA says:

    You told me in one section to do half after and in another to do half before and half after, I asked you about which one I should do and never got an answer so I thought I would start with the lower dose and see how it goes.. I can try the other one and see if it helps. The spit up was different than the reflux spit up he had before and he only has it when I give him the NP. I saw in a different post on here who had the same problem that they could put the dose in the bottle, is that an option? Would the NP cause gas? It has been pretty servere since giving the doses.

    • Joe says:

      I GIVE UP.

      You seem to specialize in asking questions but you do not carry out my instructions as contained in my replies to you which you will note from our conversations have continued almost daily since July 8 when you first consulted me.

      I feel that it is time for you to consult another physician as I am wasting far too much of my time in trying to help your baby.

  111. RINA says:

    I am sorry you feel that way. I have done everything you have told me to up to this point, it is hard when you tell someone to do two different things and don’t clarify which one is correct route to take. I also ask a lot of questions because they are simply never addressed the first time they are asked (possible side effects or something isn’t working). I understand that you are a highly intelligent man and don’t like to deal with what seems to you a waste of your time, however I like to think of myself a pretty smart person but when you are delusional due to months of lack of sleep and a crying baby day in and out things get a little foggy sometimes and you just want to make sure you are doing everything right for you and your child. The thought of something else effecting your baby that they can’t communicate back with you is just not something I want to mess with.

    Now I am stuck since I have been giving my child something other than medication that I don’t know how to administer and don’t know another physician who would be able to help me. I want to say thank you for the time you have given me (that I have apparently wasted) and the questions you have answered or not answered up to this point. THANK YOU.

    • Joe says:

      Your daughter’s case is very rare indeed and I can see that you have done your very best for her although you had not mentioned the problem with WAGR up to today.

      I have never treated a patient with this problem but you can give her my default therapy for GERD and report her response in a week.

      You can increase the Arnica to 3 doses daily to enable this remedy to cleanse her blood of any debris that may be blocking her circulatory system.

  112. Amna says:

    Hi,

    I have two month old twins. Both of them have acid reflux. Their dr prescribed Zantac for them, which I am very reluctant to give them. When I came across your remedy of Nat Phos 6x . I immediately decided to try it. I started with one tablet after every feeding for one day. Next day I reduced the amount to half tablet and I could see the results, though they still have reflux but they are not as uncomfortable as they were before. . Both of them are less fussy after couple of doses. It’s been 5-6 day me giving them 1/2 tablet after every feed. Initially I was giving them 7 times a day. Yesterday I started giving them the med after every other feed reducing it to 4 times a day ,but they were again very fussy and uncomfortable .
    So today I gave them six times a day. And they are getting better again.
    Please advice for how long should I give them the medicine. And what dose? I really appreciate your help.

    • Joe says:

      Thank you for your post which justifies the time and effort I expended in first establishing ny Website in 2011 and in maintaining it as I do today, even though I am 85 years of age.

      Nat Phos 6x is NOT a drug. It is a “Biochemic Cell Salt” and is absolutely safe in use both for babies and adults. You are requested to check this term in Google. You may safely give each baby a full tablet per feed for as long as you feel that it is helping and I note that you are already doing so.

      Zantac has been accepted as having serious side effects and you can do a search under “The danger of PPI Drugs”.

      Please do a service to other mothers whose babies suffer in the same manner and SPREAD THE GOOD NEWS.

  113. Amna says:

    Thanks for the reply. I understand that it does not have side effects and is considered safe but my only concern was that my babies don’t get dependent on Nat Phos 6x.

    Thanks and regards,

    • Joe says:

      I do doubt that your babies will ever get ‘hooked’ on Nat Phos 6x. It is NOT addictive and is NOT a drug as I have already informed you.

      You informed me that you have already, within a few days, tried to reduce the dosage but decided to increase it to a full tablet when you discovered that they were uncomfortable with just half tablet.

      You as the mother will be able to judge when you need to taper out the dosage and I hope you have followed my advice and read up on what a Biochemic Cell Salt is all about.

    Hello Doctor,
    My son is 19 weeks old 5kg when weighed last week. He has reflux since he was about 1 month old & used to spit the entire bottle milk and always refused breast feed. It improved with the use of milk thickener for about a month & a half that he completely stopped spitting up and the feeding was going well for some days. Then he caught cold & a bit of throat infection by the end of June and he again started refusing feeds. The pedeatricians have been suggesting to play with the quantity of milk thickener to see the effect on his feeding. Although he doesn’t spit now, only a little bit sometimes but he is getting more & more uncomfortable every day since last 8-10 days. Before that he was quite playful and happy for longer time but now he is totally a different baby(very grumpy all the time). 2 days back I found this remedy of Nat Phos and I started giving him since yesterday with every feed. He has been feeding better but still spitting up a bit and too uncomfortable all the time. I am also taking 2 pills after meals. Should I wait for few more days with the same dosage or do I need to give him some additional medicine? Kindly suggest. Thanks in advance.

    • Joe says:

      You have already read and are using my default therapy with Nat Phos 6x for your baby. You should observe that he will be OK in a day or so and you will continue to give the Nat Phos 6x which is NOT a drug, very safely.

      Report progress in a few days.

      For the record I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed to hundreds of babies which I hope will help your baby too.

      Nat Phos 6x tablet dissolved in milk given immediately after a feed. Start with half tablet but if the response is not as expected, you may increase to a full tablet but you will not exceed 6 tablets in 24 hours.

  117. Smriti says:

    Hi again,
    Thanks a lot for replying & helping me. There is a lot of improvement in my baby by tonight. He slept without crying. Was fussy during day but had all his feeds throughout the day.
    I had started giving him 1 full tab by mistake instead of 1/2 . from tomorrow I guess I can start giving 1/2 of it. I also forgot to mention in my previous post that I am still adding thickener to his formula milk. Can I stop adding it now or is it ok to continue it? He is still giving wet burps and hicupps but hope it will also come down soon. I will keep reporting you his progress.

    • Joe says:

      Nat Phos 6x is NOT a drug and may be given safely to babies and adults.
      If he responds with half tablet, you may continue with this dose.

      You must STOP the “thickner” as this is usually rice protein and is the CAUSE of baby’s GERD and Reflux.

  118. Smriti says:

    Hello, It’s been almost 5 days since my baby is on NP, 1 tablet 5-6 times a day & I thought it is time again to report you his condition. There is definitely a lot of improvement in terms of quantity of consuming milk & comfort. He has started playing more which he had completely stopped before starting NP but still he is fussy and vomiting occasionally . He has become more gassy now and today he has been crying most of the time he is awake. At night he is more uncomfortable and keeps rolling on his belly & moans. Towards early morning he wakes up crying almost every day. Pls suggest if something can be done to make him sleep better & stop his crying.
    Thanks

  119. Smriti says:

    Hi, Can I start giving him Nux vomica now as he is still uncomfortable and spitting a bit every time he is taking feed?

    • Joe says:

      Yes you may give him the Nux Vomica 30c in the Wet dose twice daily.
      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Order the remedy in the Ethanol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
      Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
      Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done at least 6 times before sipping a capful of the bottle as prescribed.

      REport progress in 24 hours

  120. Smriti says:

    Thanks.
    Sorry to bother you again but just to make sure before ordering Nux Vomica, is there any possibility of having serious side effects on a baby by any chance as given on many web sites?

    I would also like to seek some help for myself as I am completely exhausted carrying my son all day as he doesn’t stay down at all for the whole day (other than he is napping). Especially my lower back pains a lot if I walk or stand for a long time. And it is not about muscle pain but bones just above hips are in pain all the time.
    I have also read about the miracle remedy Arnica 30c. Will it benefit me with this problem?
    Kind regards

      There is absolutely no danger to give a baby Nux Vomica 30c in the Wet dose twice daily as prescribed by me, and it has been used by at least 30 babies for whom I prescribed it, as you can read for yourself on my Website. In any case there is no other remedy to treat your baby’s Reflux and this works to reinforce the Nat Phos 6x which I hope you are giving half tablet before a feed and the balance half immediately after.

      You have identified the correct remedy for yourself — Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily. This will ease your aches and pains within a few hours and you can report your response in 24 hours.

    Resp. Doctor,
    First of all I apologize for reporting so late as I have received the order of both Nux v & Arnica today only after a wait of 4 days. Now I am a bit doubtful,I stay in Holland & the medicines I got are as Nux Vomica D30 liquid drops 30ml & Arnica Montana D30 .Are these the correct medicines? Can I go ahead with them?
    Just to brief you with my son’s report until now – He has been on Nat phos 1 tab after every feed, was showing lot of improvement for 1 week but since last 3 days he again became fussy while feeds and he reduced taking amount of milk per every feed, spitting out a bit, very gassy & uncomfortable during night (but is still happy during day). Now as per your advice I am desperate to start with Nux V but only after you give me the green signal.
    Thanks in advance for your precious time to guide me.

  122. Smriti says:

    Hello Sir,

    Kindly advice me regarding my previous post.
    I am just confused between the 30c & D30, The pharmacy staff is also not sure whether it is the same.

    Thanks
    Smriti

    • Joe says:

      My apologies as I had overlooked your post till now.

      Nux Vomica 30c is the remedy I prescribed and you state you have received Nux Vomica D30.

      D30 is 30x and is NOT TO BE USED FOR BABY.
      You must order the 30c and not 30x which is a MILLION times more powerful and is DANGEROUS for babies.

      Please spare me the time and effort I spend in prescribing for you and your baby as I am 85 years of age and I am only doing a service to all who seek my assistance with my Joepathy as it has helped in some wondrous ways.

      When I prescribe a remedy, I expect the user to get the correct remedy at the prescribed potency.

      • Smriti says:

        Thank you so much. I completely understand how much time & efforts you are putting in in serving numerous patients around the world which is really commendable especially at this age.
        I will order the correct one from some other place again & better wait until then.
        I wonder if Nat phos D6 is the same as 6X. I had asked this question on abchomeopathy.com and got the answer that D6 has the same potency as 6X and my son is on Nat Phos D6 for more than 10 days.
        Also my question was is Arnica & Arnica montana D30 the same? Pls confirm that too. I would be grateful to you.
        Thanks

    Resp Dr. De Livera,

    Kindly accept my apology to have posted again & again on this page. But as I am a bit concerned about my baby’s growth, I wanted to report his current condition to you.
    Today was his appointment with the paediatrician and his weight was found to be dropping despite his feeding better than before. Also his head circumference is not growing as expected. I am still trying hard to get Nux Vomica here in holland and giving him 1 tab of Nat Phos 5-6 times a day. Now I would like to try reducing it to 1/2 a tab per feed. Request you to give your suggestion as well on this.
    Your advice would be very precious to me.
    Kind regards
    Smriti

    • Joe says:

      You may amend your dosage of Nat Phos 6x as you wish as it is a remedy that is absolutely safe in use.

      Nux vomica 30c however, may only be given twice daily in the Wet dose.

      I am very surprised to learn that standard Homeopathic remedies are not available in Holland.

    Dear doctor,

    I hope all is well.

    We have a little boy, he is 7 weeks old and his weight is 12 pounds.
    Until now he has been eating very well and he gained a lot of weight. The last couple of weeks he started with reflux symptoms, he cries when is burping, he has a lot of flatulence and regurgitation also he does not want to eat and cries a lot. It seems like that something is bothering him. He also cries and wakes up when he poops and passes gas. What would you suggest? Thank you and best regards, andrea

    • Joe says:

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies which I hope will help your baby too. The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      Nat Phos 6x tablet dissolved in milk is given immediately after a feed. Start with half tablet before a feed and the balance given immediately after, dissolved in milk, but you will not exceed 6 tablets in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after each feed.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby.You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over a year old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.
      Report progress in 24 hours and as often as you wish on this thread.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.

      • Andrea Vasquez says:

        Thank you so much 🙂 how long I have to give him the nat phos 6x?

        • Joe says:

          You have not started on my therapy for Baby GERD and you inquire:
          “how long I have to give him the nat phos 6x?”

          How do you expect me to give you a time frame for your baby’s cure of GERD even before you commence treatment?

    Hello,

    I am so sorry yes you are right.

    Until now I gave him 4 dosis. Definitely its better the reflux, still spit up but is not bother him any more.
    The only concern that I have is he is poops a lot like a diahereea that is for the nat phos?
    Thank you !!

    • Joe says:

      Glad to note that in just 4 doses you have observed some improvement.

      You can treat his watery stools if you feel they are a problem by reducing the dose of Nat Phos which is a laxative in a large dose.

  127. Andrea says:

    Hello

    I want to let you know how was the 24 hours treatment. I gave him 6 times. Definitely is much better, the only thing is he eats 11 or 12 times per 24 hours, and I gave him like 3 times during the morning and 3 times during the afternoon, was the reflux worse when He didn’t receive the nat phos. Please let me know if I should continue the treatment like today or make something diferent

    Thank you !!!

    Hello,

    I have a daughter who is almost 3 years old. She have never had any signs of GERD but she started a daycare few months ago and she gets sick all the time – she goes to a daycare and after 2-3 days she has runny nose, fever, cough etc. This goes on for months: 2-3 days in a daycare, 1-2 weeks at home and so on. Our doctor says it could be GERD causing all that. I discovered that her throat is red all the time even if she is not sick. Also her tongue has white coating (it appeared after taking antibiotics but it is not candida) and she poops only 2 times a week (also after taking antibiotics, before she did it daily). If my daughter stays at home and does not go to the daycare, she does not get sick, so I am confused if the GERD is the trigger to get sick all the time or if she has GERD at all – are her symtoms enough to diagnose?
    I would like to try your treatment if you think it is a GERD case.
    Thank you.
    p.s. sorry for my english.

    • Joe says:

      I do not think that your daughter’s problem is GERD but the remedy I prescribe, Nat Phos 6x (NP) will also act as a mild laxative and you will be able to report her response if it is GERD in a couple of days.

      You can give her 2 tablets of NP after every meal and you can reduce it down to just one tablet if she over-reacts and presents lose stools.

      You will give her a Probiotic to help replace the bacteria in her gut which would have been eliminated by the antibiotic.

      Report progress in 48 hours.

      If baby has improved after you gave him the Nat Phos 6x, half tablet before a feed and half after, you can continue with this remedy as it is very safe in use, unlike drugs that create more problems than they solve.

      Why do you want me to change the remedy when you have seen for yourself that he suffers if you do not give it to him?

      You stated:
      “was the reflux worse when He didn’t receive the nat phos.”

      There is no reason to panic if he improves.

  130. tracey says:

    hi Dr. Joe, My baby is 4 mos old and has reflux. we nursed great for first 6 wks no bottles until she started having probs. she does have mild torticollis as well. i do not want to put on meds i have been using gripe water or boiron colic relief and sometimes an ounce of chamomile tea which helps but i dont want to minimize milk intake. i just found out about nat phos 6x. i see you recommend diff things for diff ppl so i didnt want to just try on my own. she has silent reflux not alot of vomitting. i exclusively breastfeed and having issues with it, she wants to nurse but it hurts her apparently. sometimes she will move her head the other direction after latch and it will fall off sometimes she seems to not know how to suck it in she will be moving face back and forth like its just going to fall in. her feet must feel grounded at all times during the feed or she cannot nurse she will latch and if they are not in particular way or comfortable she cries. she is generally happy baby but now bottle feeds are even hard and causign her to arch and be in discomfort while eating. it seems to be getting worse each week. she nurses better when relaxed and tired and has issues and wants bottle during day. even though she is not fussing all day i still am sure she has some discomfort between feeds. i also notice on occassion she has a little mucus near her vagina-is this normal for a baby? just a tiny bit and not all time. would like any help. also please note if i am giving only when presenting symptom or if i give preventatively so she doesnt get tot he uncomfortable stage . thanks

    • tracey says:

      also i do take her to chiro as well and she gets physical therapy for torticollis which is improving.

      • tracey says:

        sorry forgot to mention i am trying to get her back to breast more and bottles less i would prefer no to little bottles . i also read your intstructins on wet dose i am confused by all of this and not sure who is to take what meds is baby to take or me? what am i making it wet with?

    • Joe says:

      You will stop all other medication when you start on my Nat Phos 6x therapy which I am copying below as I realize that your baby’s case is urgent and needs a solution immediately. I shall deal with the other issues you listed later.

  131. Tracey says:

    Thank you kindly for your quick response, when i dissolve in breast milk how much just a bit like a teaspoon or more like an ounce? also so you are giving 1/2 tab before she eats then right after this would be one full tab at one feeding not to exceed this process 6 times a day ? thank you again.

  132. Tracey says:

    i forgot to ask, can i give a probiotic to her to help with digestion? i am planning to try dairy free diet starting tomorrow not sure what is bothering her system, also when you have a minute is there a good remedy for clogged tear duct? i cannot seem to get this to go away and she is almost 4mos old thanks

    • Joe says:

      I have been copying the remedy for Baby GERD to literally hundreds of mothers and they have not asked me the questions you are asking me both yesterday and today.

      I note that you have not got the medicines I have prescribed and when you do so you will follow my therapy LITERALLY and all will be well

  133. tracey says:

    Dear Dr. Joe, Warm regards. I have received the Nat Phos 6x Hylands #10 tablets. I have given to baby girl 4mos old 13lb 7oz this evening 1/2 dose dry (first dose i forgot to add some expressed milk i was so exhausted from today that i forgot being the first time i gave remedy) She had a rough day today only short naps like 1/2 hr and was very tired and hard to put to sleep as well. gas bubbles and hoarse throat and arching and could not latch on to breast during day. I gave the first 1/2 tablet dose at 8pm and i too took 2 tablets at same time as i just finished my evening meal. i was able to feed partially at breast but could tell she was having a hard time and coming on and off of breast and not using full force on her suck i let her go until she had a hard time and cried i knew she was not satisfied with a full feed so i gave her an addtl 2 oz which she was happy to receive and fell asleep, she then continued to wake every 15min for me to burp and hold her upright i could not hold her the entire night as i was spending time with son and doing chores so each time i was able to burp rock put back , when she woke for next feed at 10pm i gave her 1/2 dose prior to feed in expressed milk she was able to do an entire nursing session and suckle for an hour after feed she was asleep but i slipped in the rest of the tablet in milk . this was wonderful. she has not been able to do a full nursing session to get the full hind milk and get full rest in some time. i am very hopeful for your remedy. is it ok if i do the full tab prior to feed so as not to wake baby at end of feed? thank you for your concern. I see you ask some others where they are from so i will tell you, i am from Pittsburgh, Pa . Most moms here just go right to meds. I also never mentioned that my baby is Not vaccinated and will not be. Thank you Tracey

    • Joe says:

      I see that you refer to using only half a tablet of Nat Phos 6x for baby which you give her before a feed. You must give her the balance half immediately after to enable the milk to be digested without incident.

      You may give the full tablet dissolved in milk before a feed if she will take it but many mothers have reported that the slightly foreign taste puts their babies off.

      Report on her progress tomorrow when I hope that all will be well.

  134. tracey says:

    i did not make clear i gave her addtl 2 oz of breast milk (i do not use formula not sure if that is important to your instruction)

  135. tracey says:

    Good Evening Dr. Joe,
    Yes i am sorry i was not clear i gave 1/2 tab before feed 1/2 after. I have given 6 total tablets in the last 24 hrs, during night as usual she was ok and nursed (not as much as she should quantity wise coming off before she should ) but still nursed without incident. I did not work today on colic calm before she would nurse when home but did not do that today she had to to be on pumped milk all day . she had short naps and a few coughs nasal mucus sound, arching back during feeds having to stop alot crying it hurt to go down was uncomfortable for most feeds. during one afternoon nap she woke i was able to trick her and give breast and she did nurse that one time today for about 1/2 hr and it extended that nap which was great. This is nothing new though when she is very rested or half asleep sometimes i can do that. She had a chiropractor appt this evening afterward she was in her car seat at grocery store and screamed out like she was hurt twice but upon pick up she was happy and ok, not sure why as her adjustments are very mild and gentle maybe something was moved and it was an uncomforting change. This evening still could not breast feed. she fell asleep about 7 by bottle and normally will cry alot like every 5 to 15 min to be held upright but did not do that, she woke just now about 9 and i was able to nurse and give her first new dose of one tab 1/2 before 1/2 after she is back to sleep and should as normal have a rested night we bed share so she really does not wake she starts to move i feed her and then right back to sleep without fuss normally. as usual she was a happy girl during non feed times no colicky behaviors besides some coughing and wanting to be upright. i am hoping for better results tomorrow i need to get her back on breast and more comfortable at feeds than she was today.she does not seem to mind the taste of the pellets i could try one full tab and see how she reacts please advise of any changes . pleasant day to you

  136. tracey says:

    i did not mention i too took 2 tabs at each meal thank you

  137. tracey says:

    its now 11pm she has woken a few times in great discomfort. i am not sure what i am allowed to give her to help her comfort . i tried just holding and rocking , holding and burping and rocking she is still uncomfortable. i had to give colic ease as i had only given nat phos about 9pm. i gave colic ease as i never knew what i could give when this happens. if you advise so i dont have to do that next time. i sometimes give a bit of chamomile tea would this be ok with your instruction as my pediatrician ok’d it and i have given before also i would like to add in probiotic with your instruction. i am sorry i did not follow as advised but she has had so much discomfort today i want to give her relief. thank you

    • Joe says:

      I can see that your baby is not happy with Nat Phos alone. It is now time to give her Nux Vomica 30c in the Wet dose, a half teaspoonful twice daily. You can get the pellets of Nux V and use just 6 pellets in 500ml water.

      She will hopefully improve within a few hours when you will report progress.

  138. Tracey says:

    wonderful thank you , she is coughing alot today clearing her throat also. not able to breastfeed so i hope to get the nux vomica asap, can you tell me what nux v is? as you mentioned the nat phos was a biochemic cell salt and if there are any side effects concerns for taking it . thank you

  139. Tracey says:

    how long does the mixture stay fresh for , one day?

  140. Tracey says:

    this sounds concerning : “There is no proven safe or effective dose for nux vomica, and use in children is not recommended due to potential toxicity. In children, as little as 50mg of seed may cause intoxication or death.”

    • Joe says:

      Nux Vomica is the source of Strychnine which is a lethal POISON in the RAW state.

      Nux Vomica 30c is the Homeopathically POTENTIZED product which is diluted to 100 to the power 30 or 100 multiplied by itself 30 times at which level it is at NANO levels .

      It is a very effective remedy used extensively in Homeopathy. It cannot however be used on a daily basis unlike Arnica which can be so used.

  141. Claire says:

    Dear Dr Delivera,

    My daughter is almost 3 weeks.

    She has shown symptoms of GERD from day 1 which got progressively worse as the days / weeks have passed.

    2 days ago I started giving her one nat Phos 6 dissolved in breast milk after every breast feed.

    As yet her symptoms are not improving at all, and in fact she seems to vomit up the nat Phos (very thick vomit) some time later.

    She is extremely unsettled and it is very upsetting. Even 2 hours after a feed she is gagging, vomiting and crying.

    I ordered a liquid dilution of arnica, but what I have received is arnica 30. I wanted to ask you can this be used if I make a wet dose as per your directions? Or is this the wrong potency? I know that I as the mother take this and not the baby.

    Any help or feedback is very greatly appreciated. I am concerned for my baby and also exhausted myself as she is so unsettled day and night. (She gets some relief from lying upright on my chest).

    Thanks in advance,

    Claire

    • Joe says:

      The Arnica 30c is exactly what you need and you will use just 3 DROPS of this remedy in a 500ml bottle of spring water and follow the instructions below:

    • Joe says:

      I did a quick search under your name and discovered that I first treated you on 2012/11/18 for your son and you now are blessed with a daughter 3 weeks old who also suffers from the same problem baby GERD.

      You have not informed me how your son is progressing today and I shall await your news.

      It is best to give half tablet Nat Phos 6x before and the balance half immediately after a feed for best effect.

      The Arnica 30c you have got is OK but only for you. 3 drops in a 500ml bottle of water and you will take 5ml twice daily. This will usually improve your milk supply.

  142. Claire says:

    Thank you very much for your quick reply.

    Sorry for not reporting on my son’s progress. He is now 2 years old. The nat Phos cured him of his reflux symptoms as a baby. He continued to take nat Phos for about 6 weeks at that time. He breast fed until he was 18 months. As a toddler he has many chest infections and at all times has laboured breathing with a sound of mucus in his chest. He is otherwise thriving however, and is very tall for his age, and very active.

    I will now give my 3 week old daughter half a tablet before and after each feed, and take the arnica wet dose myself. I will be sure to report progress. I forgot to say that she has great pains when she has a bowel movement and she can strain for hours before her bowels finally move (yet her stools are loose). She has A LOT of wind, which also causes her distress. I’m not sure if this is relevant?

    • Joe says:

      “As a toddler he has many chest infections and at all times has laboured breathing with a sound of mucus in his chest.”

      It seems to me that your son may be suffering from Asthma from your description above and this will be confirmed if either of you parents suffer from Asthma.

      It is best to consult a pediatrician for diagnosis.

        She continues to display reflux symptoms and is extremely unsettled at night (unsettled during the day too), and will only sleep upright on my shoulder. She generally only sleeps for 20-30 minutes at a time, and wakes with grunts and cries. Each feed seems to upset her greatly afterwards, although she is feeding well enough to get enough milk and is gaining weight very well. She feeds often to relieve her pains I think.

        May I ask how much milk you recommend to use to dissolve the nat Phos?

        Thanks,

        Claire

        • Joe says:

          I have already given you 2 cases of patients whom I have CURED of this disease for which medicine does not have any drug that will CURE Asthma.

          I hope that you do not intend using the standard Steroid Inhalers and the Nebulizers that are prescribed by doctors to help keep their patients breathing and alive. You do not also have to wait till the child is older to treat his Asthma as you will only be using just a teaspoonful of the remedy to treat it given nightly before bed.

          All you have to do is to ask me for the remedy that will hopefully CURE Asthma in your son. The reason why I wanted a doctors diagnosis on whether he has Asthma is because I cannot examine him myself as it needs a doctor to diagnose the disease.

          You can add Nux Vomica 30c in the Wet dose given twice daily for your baby to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

          You will use a teaspoonful of milk to dissolve the tablet and you will give her half tablet before and the balance half after a feed for best effect.

          • Claire says:

            Thank you, I very much appreciate your help for both my son and daughter.

            I have refused several times the doctors prescriptions for inhalers, steroids and antibiotics for my son. I allowed him the antibiotics for the first 2 infections and quickly learned they were not going to help him get cured in the long term.

            I will now use your homeopathy for my son’s asthma.

            How much of the nux vomica 30c wet dose should I give to baby? Is the wet dose made in the same way as arnica wet dose?

            Thank you,

            Claire

            • Joe says:

              You will give half teaspoonful of the Nux V 30c in the Wet dose made in the same manner as the Arnica twice daily for your baby.

    Good evening, thank you so much for all the information on this amazing website. I am contacting you as a desperate mother of a 6weeks old baby boy who has silent reflux. We saw the doctor 2 days ago who prescribed Gaviscon two sachets up to 6 times a day. We started it yesterday and although it helps a little bit as he doesnt cry as much, he is still a very unsettled unhappy baby with a lot of pain. He chokes and coughs A LOT, gasps for air, has really wet burps.. I have purchased nat phos granules today and the lady asked me to STOP GAVISCON and give him
    From 4 to 5 granules under his tongue twice daily, at least 10min before or after a meal. So only 10 granules a day. I have seen that you prescribe 1 tablet every feed but I do hope you can please tell me if i can use the granules as she informed? Or how would you suggest it please? Shall
    I stop gaviscon and try nat phos straight away? He has had reflux for about 15 days i think, we believed it was trapped wind / colic before.. Thank you so much

    • Joe says:

      It is best to get the Nat Phos 6x Biochemic Cell Salt which is always sold in Tablet form as the granules are not standard and may not help baby. I live in Sri Lanka and am not aware of the Homeopathic remedies available in the US.
      You will of course STOP Gaviscon which in any case you cannot continue to give a baby for some time unlike the Nat Phos which is absolutely safe as is is not a drug and works by stimulating Peristalsis thereby preventing acid reflux.

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies which I hope will help your baby too. The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      Nat Phos 6x tablet dissolved in milk is given immediately after a feed. Start with half tablet before a feed and the balance given immediately after, dissolved in milk, but you will not exceed 6 tablets in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after each feed.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby.You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over a year old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.
      Report progress in 24 hours and as often as you wish on this thread.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.

  144. Drica says:

    Thank you so much. I will have to order the tablets online and as soon as I start I will report back to you. The homeopathy shop that i bought the granules from suggested i give my son infant powder probiotics as well as nat phos, because i mentioned my son had antibiotics for 4 days after birth just as a precaution in case he had an infection, as he was born with high temperature. So the homeopath suggested i give him probiotics to replace the good bacteria that the antibiotics might have destroyed. Do you agree with that? Thank you so much for replying so quickly, we live in the Uk. Best regards

    • Joe says:

      Suggest you continue with the Nat Phos 6x you got in granules till the genuine product arrives as I presume that it has helped baby and enabled you to avoid Gaviscon.

      You can certainly give him the Probiotic according to the instructions on the pack but I am surprised to know that baby was born with a high temperature and would like to have more information on how high the fever was and what antibiotic was prescribed.

      I checked your email IP and believe that you live near Torquay.

      Am I correct?

  145. Drica says:

    Hello there, thank u loads. no, the granules haven’t arrived yet so I will do like you said and use them as soon as they arrive and before the tablets come too. Things are slow as I ordered yesterday and post office closed over the weekend. We live in England, London. Oh, the high temperature was a mistery. I dont know why it happened but during labour I had it and he had it too. But they did tests on him and informed that he had no infection. They gave antibiotics from when he was born for 4 days and I had them too. Unfortunately I didnt ask for the name of the antibiotic, sorry 🙁 I shall order the probiotics with nat phos tablets and will let you know. Thank you so much for your attention

  146. Drica says:

    Hi there again. I still havent got the nat phos, will tell you as soon as i get them. But would like your advice please. Yesterday I decided to stop breastfeeding him for a little while and give him
    Anti reflux formula. When the nat phos tablets arrive, shall I stop gaviscon straight away and give him the Nat Phos tablets and also have the tablets as well and start breastfeeding again? I only stopped because i am aware that the anti reflux formula is heavy on his stomach, less likely for him to bring it back up. But i really would love to continue breastfeeding, as it is best for him. I also have some arnica 30c pillules (nelsons) at home as I bought it after giving birth. Could i take them with water twice daily when I start breastfeeding him again? What are they for please? Thank you so much

    • Joe says:

      You will STOP all drugs and replace them with Nat Phos 6x and you will observe the difference in a few hours.

      Arnica 30c will improve your flow of milk and also enable you to recover better. Its effect will pass over to baby in your milk and he will enjoy deeper sleep as reported by many mothers.

      Make a Wet dose with 6-8 pellets in a 500ml bottle of spring water and take a teaspoonful twice daily.

  147. Drica says:

    Hello there. The granules just arrived, they dont have the tablets in stock but informed that 5-6 granules are equivalent to one tablet. I just gave him 5 granules under his tongue but had given him gaviscon just an hour ago as i didnt have the granules then. Now i am gonna stop gaviscon and start him on nat phos therapy. I saw the gp today and they recommended omeprazole, because he has a bad cough and chokes on it. I even thought about calling ambulance a couple of times. Do you think the nat phos can help with the cough soon? I dont want to start him
    On omeprazole. I am so worried about everything, please help. Thank you so much

    • Joe says:

      I do not have any experience with Nat Phos 6c Biochemic Cell Salt in granules but you can give them to baby as per instructions you received but I would not recommend that you give them under the tongue as there is a chance of baby choking on them. Dissolve them in milk or water.

      STOP Gaviscon and Omeprazole.

      You should observe the almost immediate response of baby to the Nat Phos, if it is the genuine product.
      Can you shop around for the tablets from other sources in your country?

  148. Tracey says:

    HI Dr Joe, I am too concerned to use Nux Vomica is there an alternative ? thanks

    • Joe says:

      I have responded to your query about Nux Vomica on October 10 where I stated:

      “Nux Vomica is the source of Strychnine which is a lethal POISON in the RAW state.

      Nux Vomica 30c is the Homeopathically POTENTIZED product which is diluted to 100 to the power 30 or 100 multiplied by itself 30 times at which level it is at NANO levels .

      It is a very effective remedy used extensively in Homeopathy. It cannot however be used on a daily basis unlike Arnica which can be so used.”

      I would like to add that it is a million times SAFER than a drug like Zantac which is prescribed by pediatricians for babies even though they are fully aware of the repercussions that the unsuspecting baby will have to suffer in later life.

      There is unfortunately no alternative to Nux Vomica which I have prescribed for at least 25 babies for this year alone whose cases you can refer to on my Website.

  149. Drica says:

    Hi there. So i already gave him 7 doses of nat phos. He is not on gaviscon since yesterday. He doesnt really cry in pain but is uncomfortable all the time, really unhappy most of the time and doesnt sleep. His cough is the same, he coughs a lot very often. He closes his eyes and then opens again twisting his body as if something is hurting. The worst is that i am not breastfeeding so cant give him arnica through my milk. Any advice please? Thank you

    • Joe says:

      If you feel that Baby is not responding to the Nat Phos 6x alone you may add Nux Vomica 30c in the Wet dose to reinforce its action.

      You will make it as per instructions below and give half teaspoonful, twice daily.

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Get Nux Vomica 30c in the standard pellets and insert just 6 pellets into a 500ml bottle of Spring Water.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
      Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done at least 6 times before sipping the half teaspoonful twice daily.

    • Joe says:

      I note your reference to Nat Phos 6x and presume that you have read my therapy on my Website or some other Homeopathic Forum where I have prescribed it. You state that it is NOT AVAILABLE IN PAKISTAN and I have to inform you that I have here with me Nat Phos 6x which is manufactured by

    Hi Joe
    My daughter is a preemie born at 32 weeks. She was a case of IUGR. My EDD was 14th October 2014. So as of today…she us only couple of weeks if I consider her corrected age. She is suffering from Silent Reflux and the pediatrician has given her Zantac. I don’t want to keep her in that and want to give her Nat Phos 6X. Can you please suggest a dosage appropriate for her age. Thank you.

    Hi.. Joe
    Further I wanted to add that she is completely on formula milk as I was unable to produce breast milk. She is about 6 pounds. Please help.

  153. Neha Gupta says:

    I am extremely sorry Sir. Please accept my apologies. From hence forth if will address you as Sir. Sorry again.

  154. Neha Gupta says:

    Dear Sir,

    Thank you for your help. I shall pray that your therapy works for her. Will report her progress in 24 hours. I am not able to produce breast milk…so she is completely on formula.

    Sir….as she is preemie and in taking time to gain weight….I had a concern if NP will interfere with her weight gain or feeding.
    I would like to thank you again for the great help you are providing to our babies. May god always bless you.

    • Joe says:

      You do not have to fear that Nat Phos 6x may REDUCE your baby’s weight as this only occurs in the case of the OBESE who need to reduce their weight and NP will do so at 1kg per week.

      NP will stimulate Peristalsis and ensure that baby’s digestion is stimulated which ensures that the build up of HCl Acid which is the root cause of Baby GERD is prevented.

      You only have the alternate drug Zantac or Prevacid or Nexium to name only 3 of the dangerous PPI drugs which will all result in serious damage to baby’s future life.

  155. Neha Gupta says:

    Thank you so much Sir for your update. Its a relief. Her weight gain is something that I need to keep close watch on. Have given her first dose. Fingers crossed. Will keep you posted on her progress. Thank you.

  156. Smriti says:

    Dear Sir,
    First of all pls accept my best wishes for your Birthday, although I have been late in wishing you.
    My son is on Nat phos for quite a while now and is doing much better than before. For some reason I could not give him Nux vomica but with only 1/2 a tablet of Nat phos alone after each feed,he has shown lot of improvement since last month.
    Also you had suggested eupatorium 200 for my daughter for recurrent colds, which also works very well on her. I give her a wet dose of it whenever she has cold and it is under control.
    I don’t find enough words to thank you for all your deeds. Thanks a lot Sir. You are really great.
    Smriti

    • Joe says:

      Thank you for your greetings.

      Glad to note that my Joepathy has helped your son and you do not need to give the Nux Vomica now as this is only prescribed for babies who do not respond to the Nat Phos alone.

  157. Neha Gupta says:

    Dear Sir,
    These are my observations so far:

    1. I could only give her 4 doses as she is a snacker and keeps taking very small feed.
    2. For the first 2 doses there was incredible improvement but for the next two her symptoms were back.
    3. She seems bit more sleepy (could be because of relief)
    4. She spits immediately after giving medicine so I am not sure if she spits out medicine of is it wet burp.
    5. She passed stool which was one-third of her regular quantity and pretty late too.(surprisingly she pased the initial tight stool and not the later soft ones which comes out easily)
    6. I keep her upright for about 20mins after every feed…and she keeps making gestures as if sonething just came up her mouth.
    7. Her most common symptom is she keeps taking her tongue out after some feeds as if something in stuck. Then she takes comfort feeding after being restless for sometime and tries to take the bottle nipple deep inside the throat. This returned after the first 2 doses.

    Please guide me further Sir.

    Thank you so much.

    • Joe says:

      Please read and UNDERSTAND my instructions as contained in my prescription for Baby GERD where all your questions have been answered.

  158. Neha Gupta says:

    I forgot to add that she seems to be more gassy and taking lesser quantity of feed.
    Thanks again.

    I live in México and i only found de liquid form of Nat Phos 6x, does that work?? im still looking to see where I can find it :S

  161. Pilar says:

    If I find the tablets, what do you Mean disolve in milk? I am breastfeeding, can just give her the tablet alone to dissolve in mouth? Thk you very much Sir! 🙂

    • Joe says:

      Breast milk is a LIQUID and you can squeeze some milk into a teaspoon and dissolve the tablet in it.
      The danger in putting a tablet in her mouth is that it can choke her when asleep if it does not dissolve before it goes down.

  162. Pilar says:

    Thk you Sir, I still havnt found NP in tablet 🙁 only liquid can I use that one?

  163. Pilar says:

    Hello Sir I have found the NP 6x tablets!! 🙂 :), do I start for baby half before feeding and half after feeding? Me the mother Do I drink arnica 6x or 30x? Thnku!!!

    • Joe says:

      You will give baby half tablet Nat Phos 6x before a feed and the balance half after a feed. You can dissolve the tablet and give the dissolved tablet instead of the dry tablet which can choke baby.

      You will take 2 tablets Nat Phos after every meal thrice daily as the effect will also pass over to baby in your milk.

      You do not have to take Arnica at all.

  164. Smriti says:

    Hello Sir,
    I have been informing you about my 7 1/2 month son’s progress from time to time. I had started with Nat Phos in July end & he is on it on & off . I can certainly see the difference when I stop giving it to him. So he must take it (1/2 tab after each feed). But the only concern is his weight gain. He is putting on very slowly. He is just 5.9 kgs due to which he had to undergo all kinds of tests in the hospital which fortunately came out clear.
    I started giving him solids just a few days back (following your advice as not to start it at 6 month). The paediatricians kept insisting to start with solids for weight gain.
    Kindly advice.

    Kind regards

    • Joe says:

      If your baby is able to tolerate the solids at 7.5 months, you can continue with them. If he cannot do so and presents a worse case of GERD you will obviously have to stop the solids and keep to the milk.

      I note that you give him only half a tablet after a feed. It is quite OK to give him half before and the balance after.

  165. Smriti says:

    The thing is that when he is on Nat Phos, we clearly note that he fails to gain weight even though he starts feeding better and when stop it’s use he starts gaining weight but is very uncomfortable all day. I am now confused what can be done to continue with the tablet with a good growth.

    Thanks

    • Joe says:

      Read the hundreds of cases of babies who have been prescribed the same Nat Phos 6x whose mothers have never complained about their baby losing weight on this same thread on my Website.

      If you feel that Nat Phos is not suitable you can always return to the drugs you were giving baby.

    I have been reading alot of posts from mothers who have tried Nat Phos 6x for their baby’s acid reflux and had good results.

    My son in almost 4 months old and weighs 16 lbs, he has acid reflux and has been struggling with it for 3 months now. I really want to try this remedy however I am unsure about dosage. I was wondering how this works and what the recommended dosage would be? Also, he is currently taking Zantac, should we stop the Zantac before we start the remedy? Are there any ‘side effects’ we should be aware of?

    • Joe says:

      It is not usual for a baby to suffer from Reflux from the tender age of just a month. You have not indicated if you are breast feeding baby and if so, it is possible that you are eating the wrong food that can be the cause of baby’s distress.

      If however you are feeding baby a formula milk, the simplest remedy is to change the brand.

      You do not seem to be aware that Zantac has been accepted by the medical profession as being a drug which may only be used in the short term as it causes severe distress to adults when used over the long term. The possible damage to an infant is best left unsaid.

      Do a search under “The danger of using PPI drugs” to know about them.

      Nat Phos 6x is NOT a drug. It is a Biochemic Cell Salt and can be used very safely by both babies and adults. Again do a search under this title.

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD that I have prescribed for hundreds of babies which I hope will help your baby too. The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      Nat Phos 6x tablet dissolved in milk is given immediately after a feed. Start with half tablet before a feed and the balance given immediately after, dissolved in milk, but you will not exceed 6 tablets in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after each feed.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby.You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over a year old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.
      Report progress in 24 hours and as often as you wish on this thread.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.

    Thank you very much for your prompt response.

    My son is a breastfed baby and I already follow a pretty strict diet as I have an allergy to gluten and dairy. We have also already decided not to vaccinate our son until he is much older if at all.

    I do not like having him on the Zantac however it did offer some relief to my poor child. I did not know what else to do or what was going on. We are first time parents and we are learning a lot about how we want to care for our child.

    I do not wish to continue to give him such medicines which is how I found my way to this website. I have been searching alternatives to the Zantac and this seemed like a safe one to try. I already ordered the Nat Phos 6x, once it arrives I will be starting this regiment with my son.

    We did try to research this product prior to contacting you, thank you for explaining what it is. I will stay in contact and let you know how it works out. Again thank you for your prompt response.

    Sir,
    Our 10-weeks twins (born at 37 weeks) have reflux. Nikolai and Addison are on Zantac .5ml 3x per day and they were previously on Prevacid 15mg 1x per day. The formula that they are currently on Nutramigen(Hypoallergenic infant formula). We lowered the dose of Zantac for both of them to .3ml since we saw improvement. Well that back fired they started with the old habits of spitting up after feeding, drooling a lot and being very fussy. We are currently feeding them every 3.5oz’s of formula 3 or 4hrs per day. I have heard so much positive feedback in regards to Nat Phos x6. What would be your dosage recommendation for Addison and Nikolai to use of Nat Phos x6? I appreciate your assistance.

    Gina

    • Joe says:

      STOP THE ZANTAC IMMEDIATELY.

      Replace it with Nat Phos 6x as per instructions below:

    Sir,
    Sorry I need to correct my last comments

    We feed them 3.5oz of formula every 3 or 4hrs per day. Sorry for the confusion.

    Gina

    • Joe says:

      It is possible that your babies are being overfed at 3.5oz formula and this is the cause of their reflux.
      Reduce the feed a little and observe results after adding the Nat Phos 6x as instructed.
      Please note that Nat P is NOT A DRUG and is absolutely safe in use.

      • Gina says:

        Sir,
        Thank you for responding so promptly.
        Later on in the treatment do we give them the whole Nat Phos 6x after the feeding?
        Gina

        • Joe says:

          Many mothers have reported that giving half tablet before a feed with the balance immediately after seemed to be more effective than giving a full tablet after.

          You can use your discretion on what is best for your babies. If you still find that their Reflux is not stopped in say 3 days, you can add Nux Vomica 30c in the Wet dose and you will give half a teaspoonful twice daily for a few days to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

          You will stop the Nux V if you give it as soon as your babies respond but you will continue with the Nat Phos which is very safe in use over long periods.

          The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

          Order the remedy in the Liquid pack in Alcohol, also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
          Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
          Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
          Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard at least 6 times before a dose is given to baby.
          Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this enhances the effect of the remedy on the user.

    Hi Mr. Delivera,
    My son is almost 5 weeks old and is suffering from silent reflux. He does not regurgitate much, but is frequently showing discomfort after feeding. He would wriggle alot, and also arch his neck and back, and sometimes crying from the discomfort. He also have noisy breathing, wheezing, and gagging/ choking and this only happens towards the end of feed and after feed. His sleep is affected as he is often woken up by the discomfort. During the day, he only takes cat naps. He also often nurses for comfort. I have started him on probiotics for 2 days, and have been giving him gripe water for the past 3 days. The gripe water helps with getting the gas out and reducing the discomfort slightly, but he is still silently refluxing. I am keen to try your remedy of Nat Phos 6x. I have ordered the Nat Phos and just received it today. I would like to know if I can still continue to give the probiotics and gripe water in conjunction to the nat phos treatment? thank you very much for your help.

      • Leah K says:

        I gave my baby 1 tablet per feeding for his first 2 feeding yesterday. I then fed him 1/2 tablet per feeding for his subsequent feeding and last 2 none. This is in order to not exceed the 6 tablet/ day recommendation as he feeds 12 or more times a day. I exclusively breastfees. He seems to be calmer after the first 2 feedings where i gave 1 NP tablet. With the 1/2 tablet, sometimes he is calm and sleeping well, but sometimes he is wriggling and arching still and is very gassy. For the feedings with no NP, he is back to his usual symptoms of gassiness, fussy during and after feeding, hiccups, etc. He spits out a little whenever NP is given during the feed, and tend to not spit when the NP is not given (silent reflux instead). Should I continue on the 6 NP per day dosage for him?

        • Joe says:

          Nat Phos 6x is NOT a drug and can be safely given even in excess of 6 tablets per 24 hours to babies. It is just that your son is only 5 weeks old that I stipulated not to exceed 6 tabs.

          If you feel that he would be happier with more tabs feel free to give him 8 tabs but always in half tabs given before and after a feed as this has been reported by mothers to be more effective than a whole tab for a dose after a feed.

          Please confirm that you are dissolving the tab in milk or water.

          Also order Nux Vomica 30 in the standard pellets but you will NOT use it till I instruct you to do so.

          • Leah K says:

            I am dissolving the tab in a little water as I am breastfeeding exclusively. As for the Nux Vomica, I’ve read potential serious side effect and am a little concerned. The following description about Nux Vomica is copied directly from webmd:

            “Nux vomica is UNSAFE. Taking nux vomica for more than a week, or in high amounts of 30 mg or more, can cause severe side effects. Some of these side effects include restlessness, anxiety, dizziness, neck and back stiffness, spasms of jaw and neck muscles, convulsions, seizures, breathing problems, liver failure, and death.
            Special Precautions & Warnings:
            No one should take nux vomica, but certain people are especially at risk for toxic side effects. These side effects are especially dangerous if you have any of the following conditions:

            Pregnancy and breast-feeding: Taking nux vomica can harm both mother and child. Don’t use it.

            Liver disease: The strychnine in nux vomica can cause liver damage or make liver disease worse. Don’t use it.”

            • Joe says:

              I note your concern to use Nux Vomica 30c which you will notice I prescribed but stated:
              “Also order Nux Vomica 30 in the standard pellets but you will NOT use it till I instruct you to do so.”

              I am 86 years old and was first exposed to Homeopathy over 45 years ago and refused to accept it as it seemed to be so very illogical. It was only when I was cured of my frequent colds that I decided to study this Science and today I am happy to state that I have further refined it by not using the original philosophy of treating the “Symptoms that the patient presents with a Single Remedy”. I treat the ailment in the manner that any allopathic physician would treat a disease by prescribing directly for it. You are invited to do a search on Google for further information under:

              You do not have to use my therapy as you can revert back to your pediatrician who would have prescribed a PPI drug like Zantac, Nexium or any one of over 50 brands of this drug which the FDA has ruled as being dangerous in use over any long period for ADULTS. I shudder to think of the damage they can cause to innocent babies.
              Do a search under “The danger of PPI drugs” on Google.

              I would like to confirm that I an NOT a Professional Homeopath as Homeopathy to me is only a Hobby to which I am dedicated. I do NOT charge any fee for my service which I gladly share on my Website with suffering humanity.

  171. Leah K says:

    Hi Mr. De Livera,

    Thank you for alleviating my concern. As you are aware, I am new to homeopathy and I appreciate your explanation as this helps with my concern. I am also in disagreement of the use of acid blocker or PPI. The doctor had originally prescribed him ranitidine (zantac) when he was 3 weeks old, but I had refused to use it. I always do a thorough research before taking any medication. I have heard about good things about your treatment and am very appreciative of your help.

    Yesterday, I notice improvement in my baby’s reflux with continued use of NP. In fact, I did not have to use as much NP as the day before. In total I used 4 tablets in 24 hours, giving him about 1/2 per feed. There was only one occasion where there was a spit up (possibly due to overfeeding because my flow was very strong then), and he does not seem to struggle or arch his back from pain. He is still gassy, possibly again due to fast let down from breastfeeding, but the NP seem to help him burp better. Before this, he would be gassy but very difficult to burp.

    He is still having throaty breathing – sounds as if there is mucus or congestion in his respiratory system. Previously, I thought it was the acid refluxing that causes this issue – but now I’m not sure, since he is not showing arching of back and neck anymore.

    He sometimes still strain and cry when trying to have a bowel movement – and he takes a while before he could move his bowel, but as soon as he does, he is relieved. He is not constipated however, since he has several bowel movements in a day (sometimes 8 times a day).

  172. Leah K says:

    Just to add to above. After feeding, he will sometimes gag/ choke on something. Then his breathing becomes noisy as if liquid is stuck in his throat. It looks like some fluid travels back up to the back of his throat. This happens even when I keep him upright. He would pause breathing sometimes when the fluid gets caught in his throat and then gag.
    However the back arching and neck arching is gone.

    • Joe says:

      It seems to me that we may have to add the Nux V 30 in the Wet dose as I anticipated if baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone. If you have got it already there is no harm to give him a dose and observe and report his response.
      to
      I hope that you are now convinced that Nux V is NOT the lethal poison you seemed to think it was and even so, I prefer to treat babies and even adults with my therapy which up to today after over 25 years of prescribing has NOT RESULTED IN A SINGLE AGGRAVATION of the ailment simply because the Wet dose method is absolutely safe in use.

  173. Leah K says:

    I have placed an order for NV 30 and am waiting for its arrival. In the mean time, should I continue to give him NP?

    • Joe says:

      Is there any reason why you should not continue to give baby the Nat Phos 6x especially since you have reported positive improvement in his status:
      “Yesterday, I notice improvement in my baby’s reflux with continued use of NP. In fact, I did not have to use as much NP as the day before. In total I used 4 tablets in 24 hours, giving him about 1/2 per feed.

  174. Leah K says:

    Hi Mr. De Livera,

    I just wanted to double check. I’ve ordered the Nux V 30c in tablet form as I couldn’t find one in the pellet form. The link is here: https://www.victoriahealth.com/product/Nux-Vom-30c/1394

    Is this the right type?

  175. Leah K says:

    To answer your question, no there is no reason for me to not continue. I am just confirming with you the right course of action. I will continue to give Nat Phos 6X until your further instruction.

    Hello Sir,

    Baby Details:
    Age: 5.5 months
    Gender: Female
    DOB: 28-Oct-2014
    Diet: Breastmilk, 1 teaspoon of solid food

    Our baby has had Acid Reflux from the time she turned 2 months old. From the time she was born until she had her 2 months vaccination she was a very happy baby who hardly cried. After her 2 month vaccinations, she started crying very irritability. When we asked the doctors, they mentioned that it is probably a growth spurt. 17 days later during our pediatrician visit, the doctor mentioned that she had gained only 3oz in thos 17 days.During these 17 days her feeding had reduced a lot too.

    The doctor for the first time mentioned that the weight gain issue might be due to Acid Reflux and he prescribed 0.8 ml Ranitidine twice daily. Our daughter responded really well to Ranitidine and gained 8oz in 1 week. But, after 3 weeks when we went to the pediatrician again, she had gained only 2oz in 20 mins. And one of the days, she did not feed continuously for 16hours straight. Doctor at this time switched from Ranitidine to Lansoprazole. Again, after 7 days, Advaitha gained around 4oz in 7 days.

    The doctor concluded that she was having “failure to thrive” condition combined with severe Acid Reflux.He also, asked us to visit the doctors at the Failure to Thrive clinic at a Pediatric Super Speciality hospital over here. We went there for 4 weeks and found no improvement. Our daughter at this time had stopped feeding while she’s awake and only feeds while asleep or half asleep. Even now she feeds only while she’s asleep or half asleep.

    The doctor recommended to switch from Lansoprasole to Ranitidine. No other changes were noticed with Ranitidine even though we have given the medication to her since the time she was 2 months old.

    Now, the Failure to Thrive clinic doctor has referred us to GastoIntestinal Clinic who have done a couple of blood tests and an EGD test (awaiting results). We really want to try some other medication which will provide her complete relief than continue with Ranitidine.

    We heard about Nat Phos-6X from internet discussion forums and want to try it for her. We had a couple of questions for your regarding that.

    1. What is the dose (does she need to take half tablet or full tablet) of Nat Phos – 6X that we need to give her? How many times in a day do we need to give her the medicine?
    2. You have mentioned that even moms can take this tablet but should not take these tablets for more than 7 days since this will cause wait loss of 1kg per week. Will this medicine cause weight loss in infants too?
    3. How long (1 week, 2 week, etc.,) can our daughter take this medicine?

    Thanks in advance for your help,
    Nithin

      I have just read your post and hasten to copy my default therapy for Baby GERD to enable you to get the remedies prescribed ASAP.

      I shall revert back to you tomorrow and shall comment on the root cause of your Baby’s current distress. In the meanwhile you must STOP all drugs and start on my therapy aka “Joepathy” and report the relief your baby will experience in under 24 hours.

  177. Nithin Surendran says:

    Thank you very much Sir for your quick reply. We look forward to your detailed message tomorrow. We have started giving our daughter Nat Phos 6X since this morning 6AM CST. She has not started feeding while she is awake but she does feed like she used to in her sleep. One thing we noticed is that she is getting some burps similar to what adults usually get after each feeding. She’s burping without us needing to burp her. She has silent reflux and has never spit up in the past. Even now she is not having any spit up. She used to have a tiny bit of curdy milk come up in her mouth in the past and since the time we started the medication that has reduced.

    And to add to my previous post – because of this weight gain issue we got an infant weighing machine. We used to weigh the baby before and after feeding to understand how much she feeds. On an average she drinks 1.5-2 oz (40-60 ml) every feeding. Since she feeds only during her sleep, she drinks around 8 times every day. Our feeding sessions starts at 2:30AM until 7AM, 9AM until 12:30PM, 2PM until 5:30PM and around 2 hours before she goes to bed. These are the times when she will most likely be sleeping.

    Also, since the time she started taking Lansoprazole, she passes stools once in 2 days and her Eczema has worsened. Like I mentioned earlier she’s not taking Lansoprazole and is only on Ranitidine now. That too we have stopped Ranitidine since the last 3 days.

    Couple of corrections on my earlier post:
    1. In 2nd paragraph I had mentioned “But, after 3 weeks when we went to the pediatrician again, she had gained only 2oz in 20 mins.”- it’s not 20 mins but 20 days.

    2. Question#2 – just rewording my question to make it simple.
    “You have mentioned that taking Nat Phos 6X causes weight loss in moms. Will it cause weight loss in babies too?

    Thanks again for everything you are doing. Look forward to your reply.

    Best Regards,
    Nithin

      “From the time she was born until she had her 2 months vaccination she was a very happy baby who hardly cried. After her 2 month vaccinations, she started crying very irritability. ”

      It is obvious that it was the vaccination that caused a chain reaction to your baby at 2 months. You are fortunate that this vaccination reacted with just GERD but you can do a search on the www for the other reactions associated to the brain and the development of children under:
      “The danger of vaccinations to children”

      It is the TRIPLE vaccination that is the problem as this vaccine for MMR often causes serious reactions to the innocent baby when given in ONE DOSE. Given separately in 3 shots, it does not seem to react badly.

      There is absolutely no loss of weight to the baby reported by the hundreds of mothers whom I have treated and you can read their reports on my Website. It is only the mother that will lose weight by 1kg+ per WEEK. This is a discovery I made and reported in 2005 on ABC Homeopathy of which I was a senior member.

      Doctors are taught that it is only drugs that can cure a disease. I do not agree and this is the reason for my establishing my Website to serve as a record of my therapy aka “Joepathy” to live on after me into the future as I am 86 years old and have proved conclusively that one does not have to depend on drugs to survive. It was the action of the PPI Drugs Ranitidine, Lansoprazole, Nexium, Zantac and many scores of others that are causing the damage to both adults and babies and a study of my Website is a record of my therapy to rescue suffering humanity from the after effects which you can read about on the WWW under:
      “The danger of PPI Drugs”

      I have not taken any drugs whatever since 2008 as I had to take an antibiotic after my Inguinal surgery and all my blood reports are absolutely normal except for my Blood Sugar which was very low at 71 Random which is equivalent to 50 Fasting. This caused a Hiccup which I suffered from for 8 days 24×7 and I had to consult a doctor who was very surprised at my reports but could not stop the Hiccup.

      I took a teaspoonful of Sugar and the Hiccup was history.

      I do take medicines for various ailments like Colds, Coughs but they are all Homeopathic. I do take Arnica 30 in the Wet dose nightly and have done so since 1996 and I believe that it was this remedy that has helped me to maintain a lifestyle at age 86 which is the envy of many who are half my age.

      You will give your daughter the remedies I have prescribed for as long as she needs them. They are absolutely safe.

      You, the parents, are also recommended to take:

      Arnica 30c in the Wet dose nightly for LIFE.

    Sir, we completely agree with you on the benefits of homeopathy. We are both Indians and hence have been made aware of homeopathy medications since our childhood. In fact my wife has taken only homeopathic medications most her life. But, since we are in the U.S. we do not have access to a Homeopathic doctor.

    Since our child is suffering a lot due to the acid reflux we really need your help. The dosage of Nat Phos 6X that you mentioned in your post last night – is that sufficient? Are there any other remedies to make her feed more breastmilk and to give her relief from acid reflux?

    Thanks in advance for your help,
    Nithin

    • Joe says:

      I am conservative in my therapy and we will give baby half tablet before and the balance after every feed.

      Arnica 6c in the Wet dose will increase lactation or milk production by the mother.
      She can take 5ml of the Wet dose made as per instructions below twice daily.

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Order the remedy in the Ethanol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
      Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
      Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done at least 6 times before sipping a capful of the bottle as prescribed.

      It is rarely that a baby’s mother decides to use my therapy on her own without referring it to me and you may not know that is my own ‘discovery’ and qualifies for the title “Joepathy” like so many other remedies that I have ‘discovered’ which are not referred to in the Materia Medica of Homeopathy like Arnica for Diabetes and Nat Phos 6x for reduction of weight. Thank you for confirming that your baby was helped by NP which you stated:
      “In fact, it was a miracle worker for our daughter! I read about it on this website and decided to give it a try.”

      I shall for the record copy my default remedy for Baby GERD below:
      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD that I have prescribed for hundreds of babies which I hope will help your baby too. The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      Nat Phos 6x tablet dissolved in milk is given immediately after a feed. Start with half tablet before a feed and the balance given immediately after, dissolved in milk, but you will not exceed 6 tablets in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after each feed.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby.You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over a year old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.
      Report progress in 24 hours and as often as you wish on this thread.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.

    My 26 month old daughter has been suffering from chronic vomiting since birth. She was exclusively breastfed until 1 year when we then decided to introduce solids. Things initially seemed fine but soon after the introduction of solids, my daughter began randomly throwing up most times immediately after eating solids, had painful and bloody bowel movements and she dropped off to the 5th percentile. My pediatrician at the time wanted to perform invasive procedures but I wanted to give her body time. Her intestinal issues resolved but she’s still plagued with random vomiting, hard swallowing, mouth breathing due to chronic stuffiness and delayed growth. She nursed until 15 months of age and I was strictly dairy, gluten and mostly egg free. Do you think, along with dietary changes, that she would benefit from your protocol?

    • Joe says:

      Your baby is another classic case of Baby GERD and you are fortunate that you referred her case to me instead of a pediatrician who would invariably have prescribed a dangerous PPI drug like Zantac, Nexium or equivalent which would have solved her problem of regurgitating her feed.

      On re-reading your post I note that you have in fact done so and that “My pediatrician at the time wanted to perform invasive procedures but I wanted to give her body time.” I am glad you did not permit this unnecessary procedure which would not have helped and may have caused more damage to her “bloody bowel movements”.

      You will observe if any of the solids you are giving her today are the cause of her distress. If you have been subjecting her to the Triple MMR vaccination this can also be suspected but this will depend on when you gave it and what her reaction was. I shall now copy my therapy for Baby GERD and you will report on her response in 48 hours after the first dose.

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD that I have prescribed for hundreds of babies which I hope will help your baby too. The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

    Hi Dr. Joe,

    My son is currently 3 month old and has been suffering from silent reflux since he was 3 weeks old. I had heard about Nat Phos from our chiropractor and decided to try it out with my son since he was 6 weeks old. The Nat Phos kept his reflux under control, but he is not completely relieved from it. However, it seems to keep it manageable. There is still some wriggling and writhing after feeds, but mostly he is better than before the Nat Phos. Overtime with continued use of NP, there is improvement to his reflux (with occasional flare ups from time to time). Eventually, we were able to keep him off NP when his condition stabilized and he was fine. This was until his vaccination at 9 weeks. I live in the UK and here at 2 months, they give 1 oral rotavirus vaccine, 1 shot of DTAP/IPV/Hib vaccine and 1 shot of PCV vaccination (a total of 2 shots and 1 oral).

    2 hours after his vaccination, he started screaming unconsolably midway during his feeds. At this time he has taken about 2oz of breastmilk and this was the point that seems to bring his reflux on. He refused the rest of his feeds and was screaming in pain almost the entire day. He fed only 1 other time for the rest of the day too. That night I gave him back NP for every of his feed. He feeds about 7-8 times a day and I see significant improvement from the use of NP, but not complete cure. He is still uncomfortable after feeds, and will whine and cry a ilttle, but at least he was not screaming in pain. We continued the use of NP and by the time he is 10 weeks, we went from giving him NP every feed and gradually reduced it to 2-3 tablets per day. His condition did not improve further with any increased dosage or continued use of NP. Around 10 weeks, I also started to remove dairy and soy from my diet. At the same time, I took him off NP since his condition had stabilized without it. 1 week later, I saw improvement in his reflux from my diet change- no more wriggling or writhing – and almost as if the reflux never existed.

    However, 2 days ago, he had a flare up. I had eaten some KFC chicken thinking it is probably dairy and soy free, but it may have caused his discomfort. Thinking back, I do not know the ingredient in the KFC. I had restarted him back on NP yesterday.

    Due to his constant battle with reflux, he has now developed feeding aversion. He would be very hungry and wanting to breastfeed but fight it at the same time. Sometimes he would suckle until my let down when the milk start flowing and then he would start screaming as soon as the milk flows. Most times, I have to resort to feeding him when he is sleepy or sleeping. Even then, he would take milk for about 2 letdowns (estimated about 2 oz) and then would start wriggling and writhing and then stop his feed. And then he would not feed again. This has affected his weight gain.

    After researching about reflux and NP, I came across your website and feel that you may be able to help with my son. The Nat Phos is working to a degree, but it is not providing full relief. He is not on any other medication other than Nat Phos. I appreciate your help and and thankful that you commit your time to helping others through this website.

    • Joe says:

      Glad to learn that the Nat Phos 6x therapy I pioneered to treat Reflux and GERD in both babies and adults has been recommended to you by your chiropractor and that you used it with some success for baby. I am surprised that it is not used more widely although I first used it myself about 25 years ago and after I discovered that it helped me to stabilize a puffed stomach after a meal at a hotel, I shared its beneficial effect with my friends and when I established my website I prescribed it for babies and was glad to note the results which occurred within a few minutes after a feed.

      I note that you have located my Website on the web and contacted me directly as in your baby’s case, you may continue with the NP in the same manner for the moment as prescribed in my default therapy I prescribe for baby GERD copied below:

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD that I have prescribed for hundreds of babies which I hope will help your baby too. The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      Report progress in 24 hours and as often as you wish on this thread.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.

      I note that you have vaccinated baby and now know the result. Please spare baby from the triple MMR vaccination till he is over 2 years of age and give it SEPARATELY and not together as I have evidence that the triple is dangerous as you can verify for yourself on the web.

      You may add Nux Vomica 30c in the Wet dose as a last resort to reinforce the effect of NP but you must know that it is Strychnine which is potentized to Nano Levels and although it is perfectly safe, it is best not to be given unless on a SOS basis.

  183. Faye says:

    Thank you for your quick response Sir! I have restarted him back on his NP and since his condition is pretty bad now, I am back to giving him NP for every of his feed.

    As for the Nux Vomica 30c, how do you recommend preparing the wet dose? And at which point and for how long should we give it to him?

    Also, I saw in other posts above that you recommend the mother to also take Arnica. What is the purpose of Arnica and will this also help my baby’s reflux?

    • Joe says:

      I believe that it is time to start him on Nux Vomica in the Wet dose given twice daily and you will report his response in 48 hours.

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Order the remedy in the Ethanol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
      Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
      Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done at least 6 times before sipping a capful of the bottle as prescribed.

      The Arnica will help you with the Nat Phos 6x and baby too will benefit from it through your breast milk, as many have reported that their babies slept more deeply than before. I stopped prescribing Arnica for the mother when I discovered a mother who was giving it to her baby. This did not hurt baby in any way but it was not necessary.

    • Joe says:

      I just remembered that you visited your chiropractor who introduced you to Nat Phos.

      May I know the reason why you did so?
      I ask the question as I feared that you had consulted him for Baby’s Reflux.

  184. Faye says:

    I have just checked with my local store. They do not have nux vomica in liquid dilution form, but do carry it in pillule form. The brand is Nelson’s. It is Nelson’s Nux vomica 30c in pillule format. Will this work?

  185. Faye says:

    It was just a chiropractor that I have been seeing for my back. She too had a daughter with reflux and had success with Nat Phos. That was what prompted me to try it. It was not a consultation about the reflux because she does not practice homeopathy. I just mentioned it as a passing comment.

    With regards to the Nux Vomica, would the pillule format work? If so, what is the instruction to make wet dose from the pillile form? I am not able to find the liquid dilution form here.

    • Joe says:

      The pellets are OK to make the Wet dose but they are only less than half as effective as the one in an Alcohol base.

      You can use 8 pellets in 500ml water and follow my instructions on making the Wet dose.

  186. Faye says:

    I gave 2 doses of the NV (one last night and one this morning) so far while still continuing him on NP for every feed. It does not seem to make a difference on his reflux yet. In fact this morning his reflux is a little worse (more screaming after feeds). Should i continue with the nux vomica?

    • Joe says:

      This is the reason why I prescribed the Liquid Dilution in Alcohol as it is far more potent than the pellets.

      You are consulting a physician and it is not usual to present your case by addressing me by my given name. You state that you are 25 years of age and you are old enough to be my grand daughter.

      The Ultimate Cure for Obesity on:

      http://abchomeopathy.com/forum2.php/15923/

      This is a post I made on the ABC way back in 2004 on December 25, the day before the Tsunami hit Sri Lanka, a day which will forever will remain in my mind for as long as I live as I was involved in the Homeopathic after care of the many thousands of survivors immediately after the Tsunami when I was joined by members of Homeopaths Without Borders who sent 6 pairs of International Homeopaths to help care for the survivors.

      Your therapy for Obesity will comprise the use of
      Nat Phos 6x dose 3 tablets taken thrice daily after meals
      Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily before meals.

      Weigh yourself today before you commence on my therapy and report your weight loss weekly when the standard loss which you can expect and has been reported is around 1kg per week.

      You will also do a regular stint of at least 45 minutes of exercise which will be done by you at intensive levels, irrespective of the general feeling of tiredness that you may experience, if you wish to benefit from my Joepathy.

      You will also control your diet and avoid fatty fools completely and eat in moderation to ensure that your stomach is filled to comfortable levels.

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Order the remedy in the Ethanol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
      Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.

      Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done at least 6 times before sipping a capful of the bottle as prescribed.

      Please follow the following restrictions which are essential to ensure that the remedy prescribed is not antidoted:

      Do not use Coffee, Cola beverages, preserved foods like sausages, ham and bacon as they contain Saltpeter.

      Report your weight loss weekly when you can expect a drop of at least 1kg per WEEK.

    Good morning Sir,

    My son is 2 months old and suffers from milk protein and soy protein allergies as well as what the pediatrician diagnosed as GERD. He is on an amino-acid based formula. He was previously taking Zantac as well as Prevacid for the GERD. His reflux symptoms are: crying uncontrollably, spitting up, arching/stiffening his back, ect. We recently stopped the reflux medication after doing research regarding the medicine being given to infants. In our research, we discovered your site. I wanted to post to see if the NP would still be recommended for an infant with the milk and soy protein allergy. Thank you for your time and consideration.

    Hello sir,

    Thank you for your help with advising how to cure babies of GERD. Our daughter is 6 weeks old and has symptoms of silent reflux. Food comes up frequently, which she swallows, but it startles her and I assume sometimes really irritates her throat. As a result, her sleep has been disrupted and now she wants to be constantly held instead of laying flat or even at an incline.

    I read the numerous posts you have written and began your famous therapy. I began giving her 1/2 of Nat Phos 6x on Thursday afternoon. Symptoms appeared to get worse. Since then I have given her one tablet after feeding not to exceed 6 a day. Symptoms were worse on the 2nd and 3rd day. These included more frequently food coming up that she swallows, irritability, and less sleep. Today they appear to be somewhat better. Is it normal for symptoms to get worse before improvement appears? I was soo hopeful she will have immediate improvement like all other cases. Please advise what is best to continue the therapy. Thank you in advance for your help!

    • Joe says:

      Glad to note that you have read about my Nat Phos 6x therapy I pioneered some years back for baby GERD when I discovered that it was far more effective in comparison to the standard Homeopathic remedies that are prescribed even today for this common problem.

      I note that you used it for your 6 week old daughter and started her off on half tablet but that it made her condition worse. I presume that you now give the balance half after a feed and hope that her problems have been resolved.

      This form of Baby GERD seems to be common today especially in the case of babies who are not breast fed. Many react to formula and if you read the many accounts of mothers whom I have treated on my Website, you will see that breast fed babies are rarely suffer from this problem.

      I shall for the record copy my default therapy for Baby GERD and if she still does not stabilize I shall then prescribe another remedy in addition to the Nat Phos which should hopefully stabilize her.

        Hello again,

        I have seen slight improvement in our baby girl’s silent reflux. She is sleeping better and is less fussy. However, food continues to raise up, which she swallows, and it wakes up when she sleeps or bothers her during the day. I assume it may not burn her or bother her as much though, because she is less fussy now when it happens. I would hope the reflux would be controlled soon though.

        I should also clarify the following: she is exclusively breasfed from the beginning. She was born with an emergency c-section after trying 16 hours for a natural, no pain-medication birth. She was given antibiotics after birth for 48 hours due to meconium, but she did not have an infection. I have ordered infant probiotics as well and I am waiting on their arrival. She has never been on any reflux medication and I do not want to ever give her any. I hope your therapy will be the solution and help her system strengthen so milk will stop coming up and bother her so much. I will continue to give her the Nat Phos 6X. Do you suggest anything else since the improvement is not as much as I was hoping/expecting based on other accounts?

        Thank you.

          Hello again sir,

          After the last time I wrote you our daughter did not seem to respond much to the Nat Phos 6X on its own. I studied your other cases and proceeded to give her 2X a day Nux Vomica 30C in the wet dose prepared as you have indicated. After 2 days of administering her symptons disappeared completely! I got so happy, on the third day I only give her a some Nat PHos 6X. She was fine. But then the following day the reflux came back. Should I go back to give her Nat Phos and Nux Vomica now? Or does that mean this treatment did not help her? It did for a bit at least but the symptoms came back. How long can I give her Nux Vomica 30C?

          Thank you for your help.

          • Joe says:

            Glad to note that you have spent some time in studying cases of other mothers whose infants suffered from Baby GERD who were saved the trauma of the dangerous PPI drugs like Zantac , Prevacid and others which are only effective for a few days and are the cause of many other serious side effects which can be avoided by using Nat Phos 6x in combination with Nux Vomica 30c which you must give at least twice daily. You have found that giving it just once does not help.

            You can give it to baby as long as she benefits from it and you will know when to stop it. You will of course continue the Nat Phos 6x which is absolutely safe and can be use for life.

            I am copying the link to Vaccination of Babies in the hope that you will NOT vaccinate your own till she is over 2 years of age.

            Remember to give the MMR separately in 3 shots if you must give it at all.

    Hi Sir

    I have stared taking Net phos and i have lost 1kg. Will start taking arnica too. Will update you about the further process.
    Regards

    Good morning! My son is 9 mo. He is breastfed and has started eating solids. He weighs approx. 18-19 lbs. He naps well during the day (2-3 hrs twice/day), but at night has discomfort due to gas build up and reflux possibly. He does not spit up. Now that he eats more solids he is having further discomfort and won’t sleep for even 1 hour on his own. We have elevated the mattress in his crib and have tried Hylands Colic Tablets but they don’t have much effect. He nurses every 3 or so hours during the day. We believe the reflux is due to a tongue tie that has recently been released. Because he is older we are finding we need to re-train his tongue to nurse effectively as he often bites instead of sucking. Do you think this remedy would be helpful? Would he receive the tablets just after nursing or after solids as well?
    Thanks you kindly for any help you can offer!
    Most sincerely,
    Amanda Randall

    • Joe says:

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD that I have prescribed for hundreds of babies which I hope will help your baby too. The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      Nat Phos 6x tablet dissolved in milk is given immediately after a feed. Start with half tablet before a feed and the balance given immediately after, dissolved in milk, but you will not exceed 6 tablets in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after each feed.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby.You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over a year old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.
      Report progress in 24 hours and as often as you wish on this thread.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.

      • Amanda says:

        Thank you! I will receive the Nat Phos 6x next week! I will report after the first 24 hours!

        • Amanda says:

          Hello,
          I have received Nat Phos 6x and have given my son as prescribed for just over 24 hrs. His sleep had no big change. During the day he has always seemed fine, with nights being problematic and that hasn’t changed. He is up frequently. I try to burp him immediately after every feeding, however, at night when he is sleeping I cannot seem to get him to burp well – I try back pats, tummy massage, bouncing, changes in his position, etc and I cannot get the gas to come out. If I wake him there is no guarantee of burping but then he usually wants to nurse again which creates the problem again. This is what leads to his bloating and gas pains, by mid-night he is arching and uncomfortable. During the day he has no problem burping immediately after feeds. I’m unsure if he has a reflux problem or not. Is there anything I can try to help him burp? Also, is dissolving the tablet important or can I give it to him to dissolve in his mouth? When he’s sleeping it may be easier to give him the tablet on its own since he is used to solids and has had these types of tablets before for his teething, etc.
          Thank you again!
          Amanda

          • Joe says:

            I believe that your 9 month old baby is not ready for solids right now which makes him react to them with the symptoms you have reported.

            Stop the solids and report his progress.

          • Amanda says:

            I can try eliminating solids. These symptoms are from before starting solids as well.

  196. Jessica says:

    Hello Sir,

    I have been reading through the many comments here and have been very intrigued with the results! My baby hasn’t been diagnosed with reflux by a doctor but I am certain she has it because of the symptoms. She is 8 weeks old and the symptoms include difficulty feeding with arching back and neck, needs to be burped constantly and wet burps continue after nursing until the next feeding which is usually 3hrs, fussy after feeding and like pressure on her tummy, sounds congested after she eats and sometimes wheezing or raspiness when she breathes and she wakes constantly in sleep.

    I started her on probiotics and myself as well and that seemed to help get her bowel movements under control and back to a normal color and consistency. It wasn’t anything alarming just wasn’t the normal color and consistency.

    Anyways, I was going to start her and myself on the NP 6x and see if it changed anything. Everyone keeps telling me she will grow out of it or it’s something I am eating. I changed my diet and am eating simple foods and she still has symptoms so I’d like to exhaust all natural options!

    I have read your Therapy for baby GERD and will start with half a tablet. My question is do I give it before or after the feeding? I just ordered the NP 6x and am excited to give it a try unless you would suggest otherwise?

    Also I have a yeast infection and am taking an anti-fungal I don’t think the baby has thrush because no signs of it in her mouth but is NP 6x ok to take with my prescription of flucanazole the dosage is 200mg once a day for the next two to three weeks or would you suggest something else if I can’t do both at the same time?

    • Joe says:

      Glad to note that you have already read my therapy for Baby GERD and that you are already using it. You have however not indicated baby’s response.

      You will give half tablet of Nat Phos 6x before and the balance after every feed.

      You must understand that the antibiotic you are taking will be passed over to baby but since you have already been doing so for some time, there does not seem to be any possibility of stopping it.

      • Jessica says:

        I haven’t started the therapy for Baby GERD, I am excited to, but I don’t have the NP 6x yet. I just wanted to check in first and get those few questions answered while I am waiting on the shipment of the NP 6x.

        What do you mean give the balance after? Is that the other half? So they would get a full tablet each feeding? Also I know it is passed through the breastmilk, would it be best to switch to formula for another week and then switch back after I’m done taking it?

        I am more than happy to report back once I start which should be early next week. Thank you so much for your help!

        • Joe says:

          Please follow my therapy precisely as prescribed.

          Half tablet before and the balance after.

          You must NOT change to formula as your breast milk is precious for baby.

          • Jessica says:

            She slept much better last night and it’s been 24hrs and we have done a half tablet before and after each feeding with the Nat Phos 6x. I am taking it as well.

            She appears to be having symptoms still but overall most feedings have gone much better! She still gets fussy after a feed and has wet burps and spits up a little for a little while after. She is much easier to soothe and is talking much more instead of grunting in pain. So thank you! I am wondering if we should try anything else or let it play out for a few more days?

            • Joe says:

              Glad to note that you have given baby the Nat Phos 6x and that all is well.

              You stated:
              ” She is much easier to soothe and is talking much more instead of grunting in pain”

              It is best not to overfeed baby as this can result in promoting reflux. You can however feed more often for the first few weeks to ensure that your breast milk is not wasted.

              It is best to continue with your current protocol to feed your baby.

              Please remember my instructions on Vaccination as this can be counter productive if they are given when baby is least at risk to the many diseases these vaccinations are supposed to treat.

              I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD I have prescribed for hundreds of babies which I hope will help your baby too. The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

              You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.

  197. Jessica says:

    If I do smaller feedings should I go down to a half tablet at a feed instead of a full tablet? Is it best to give NP 6x before and after each feed or can I just give it after?

    What would you recommend for smaller feedings? 2oz every 2hrs?

    • Joe says:

      Please read and UNDERSTAND my therapy in my prescription where I have already answered your questions.

      There is no objection to your feeding more often if you do not mind doing so and you can skip giving the Nat Phos for a few feeds.
      You may do so for a few days till baby responds without refluxing it out.

  198. Jessica says:

    Could she have a slight allergy to the lactose in the Nat Phos? Her stomach is pretty rumbly and I have been feeding her 2-3oz every 2-3 hrs. She is still fussy after feeding and is burping more now. I can feel the gas with my hand on her tummy.

    • Joe says:

      Please follow my instructions literally as they have been used by hundreds, perhaps unknown thousands of mothers successfully for their babies.

  199. Jessica says:

    Alright! Will do! I’m just a worried momma is all. Thank you for the help!

  200. Jessica says:

    So it has been a little over 70 hrs since we have started using the Nat Phos 6x. I thought I had seen a change the first day because she slept better but these past two days have not been great. She isn’t sleeping well at all and I’ve switched to smaller amounts more frequently. She is arching her back at feedings. Spitting up a lot more and waking after 20-30 minutes of sleeping coughing and choking on whatever is coming up:/
    I’ve tried keeping her elevated from when she eats to hen she sleeps. I haven’t given her anything other than Nat Phos 6x, she hasn’t had any vaccines or anything like that. She has been on a probiotic and so have I.

    • Joe says:

      It seems to me that Baby is not responding to the Nat Phos 6x alone and it is time to add Nux Vomica 30c in the Wet dose to reinforce its action.
      You will make it as per instructions below and give half teaspoonful, twice daily.

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Get Nux Vomica 30c in the standard pellets and insert just 6 pellets into a 500ml bottle of Spring Water.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
      Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done at least 6 times before sipping the half teaspoonful twice daily.

      You will stop the Nux Vomica as soon as you find that baby is OK but you will continue the Nat Phos for as long as you feel that it is needed. NP is NOT a drug and is absolutely safe in use for long periods.

      Report progress in 48 hours.

  201. Angela says:

    Hello, my 7 week old constantly spits up and vomits after eating. He was born jaundiced and lost too much weight so I was forced to supplement his feelings. He is 40% breastfed, 60% formula. I make homemade goats milk formula for him. I have cut out dairy, gluten and soy from my diet. He is not overly fussy and doesn’t seem to experience pain, only slight discomfort. He is not constipated but does have gas, hiccups and spits up sometimes large amounts when burping. I’m thinking he only needs half a tablet of Nat Phos 6x after each feed since he’s not severe, but would like your input. Thank you in advance.

    • Joe says:

      If Baby can be comforted with just half tablet of Nat Phos 6x you can continue to give it to him. NP is NOT a drug and is very safe in use both for him and you, if you wish to reduce weight at 1kg per WEEK and that, very safely.

  202. Megan says:

    My 9 week old son was diagnosed with acid reflux 5 weeks ago. He was first on Zantac for almost 2weeks with no relief then switched to Prilosec and has had some relief. I tried everything I could before turning to the meds, but nothing seemed to help. I have eliminated everything that could bother him from my diet. I keep him elevated around the clock. I exclusively breast feed every 2-3 hours even through the night and I only offer one breast per feed. I have used essential oils and tried camomile tea. But all of this and he still has episodes. He doesn’t spit up much, so weight gain has not been an issue, but he screams and cries in pain after eating and sometimes during. He chokes and gurgles. He arches his back and stiffens out his little body. What do you recommend?

    • Joe says:

      I can see that your 9 month old baby has been subjected to many powerful PPI drugs which have failed to help him. All PPI drugs have been accepted by the FDA as being dangerous to adults when used in the long term and I shudder to think of the damage that they can do to innocent babies. Do a search on Google under “The danger of PPI drugs”

      Please study my therapy copied below and I am confident that your baby will be all smiles in a few hours after you start on my therapy below which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
      Do not give the MMR Vaccine in One shot as there is plenty of evidence on the Web of severe side effects which can result. You are advised to give it in 3 separate shots if you must do so, after baby is 2 years old.

      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

      • Megan says:

        Just to clarify my little guy is only 9 weeks, not months. Is the treatment/dosage still the same?

        • Joe says:

          I have prescribed Nat Phos 6x which you will give as prescribed by giving half tablet before and the balance half immediately after but both dissolved in water or milk.

          This is the standard dosage for babies irrespective of age.
          Give it as prescribed and report response in 48 hours.

  203. Megan says:

    So far so good…. My son has been off Rx for 72 hours and doing great. He has had no episodes and is such a happier baby. Thank you for your help. This is life changing.

    • Joe says:

      Glad to learn that your Baby has responded to my therapy. I am confident that he will continue to improve but do not hesitate to give him the Nat Phos 6x as it not a drug and is the Ultimate remedy for Baby GERD and for Adults too.

      I hope you are also taking it as it will reduce your weight at 1kg per WEEK.

  204. Gi says:

    Joe, my baby is 3mos old. Diagnosed with GERD and milk allergy since 6 weeks. Prescrbied zantac at 6 weeks old which worked for two days only. After that she was given prilosec that does not seem to work and make her worse. She continues to have silent reflux, cry all day and not sleep. She is very congested, hiccups, wheezes and arches her back. She also recently started refusing bottle feeds. Please help. I am a first time mom and cannot bear seeing her in so much pain. She is 3 months and weighs 10lbs. Thank you!

    • Joe says:

      Yes it is.

      I hope you realize that you cannot possibly replace Breast Milk with Formula.
      It is possible that Baby is reacting to the Formula but it may be too late today to change.

      • Gi says:

        Thank you very much. I will report back in 24hours. I already gave her the first dose. I think it is too early to tell if there is improvement. Thank you.

  206. Gi says:

    Doctor, baby developed a rash on face after third dose. Could it be she reacted to lactose in nat phos? Baby is diagnosed with milk/soy allergy. Thank you

    • Joe says:

      Your baby may pose a difficult case to solve if as you state she has reacted to the lactose in the tablet of NP6x.
      Nux Vomica 30c in the Wet dose will help to allay the milk allergy and also reinforce the action of NP.

      You will make it as per instructions below and give half teaspoonful, twice daily.

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Get Nux Vomica 30c in the standard pellets and insert just 6 pellets into a 500ml bottle of Spring Water.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Shake the bottle hard before you give baby half teaspoonful twice daily.

      You will stop the Nux Vomica as soon as you find that baby is OK but you will continue the Nat Phos for as long as you feel that it is needed. NP is NOT a drug and is absolutely safe in use for long periods.

      I hope you realize that this is another unnecessary scenario that is due to your using Formula instead of Breast Milk.

    My 6 week old daughter spits up a lot and sometimes it seems more like she is throwing up because it is more than just a small amount. She had been having milk come out her nose every other day or so but seeems to be less lately. It sounds like she has wet burps as well. Sometimes after throwing up in the night it sounds like milk is in her nose and gurgling in her throat. Someone said she may have reflux so I çhecked it out online but she is not fussy all the time. When she is fussy i can calm her down quickly by picking her up and if that doesn’t work I can stand and jostle her a little and she stops crying. She is fussy often enough that I feel I don’t get a lot done. We found she prefers being on her belly so during the day a lot of times I lay her on her stomach till she falls asleep and then roll her onto her back. A lot of times after rolling her over she will wake and fuss so I put her back on her stomach again till she falls asleep. Sometimes we do this about 3 times till she will stay asleep on her back. Does this sound like reflux to you? Do you think she would be a candidate for the Nat Phos 6x? Thanks for your help.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.

        After I feed my baby do I burp first and then give the other half of the pill or give the pill and then burp? Sometimes she will not always burp. Is there any way to get her to burp better than patting her and rubbing her back? I will see if I can get Nat Phos 6x locally but if not I will order online so it will take a few days to get. We had already decided not to give her any immunizations till she is at least 4 and then if we give her any they will be spread out. Do you recommend not immunizing kids at all? Also what is the benefit of waiting till 8 months to give solid food and is baby cereal and baby food what you would consider solid food? Which foods do you suggest to avoid for me that can cause distress to my baby? Thank you for all the time you spend helping us mothers.

        • Joe says:

          Give the half tablet dissolved in milk or water and burp in about 5 minutes after.

          It will take too long for me to explain the danger of vaccinating babies under 2 years but you can do a search on Google.

          A baby’s digestive process is not ready for solids of any type till after 8 months and you will see the reaction if you experiment with them before this time. This includes cereal. I cannot give you a diet chart but you will observe that certain food and drink you consume is not tolerated by baby as your milk will be affected by them.

          I hope that you too are taking Nat Phos 6x and have observed the drop in your weight.

          • Tara says:

            Thanks for responding. I will start taking it myself too once I get it. It said I should get between Sept 3-9. I don’t really need to lose weight but it won’t hurt to lose a little. Thanks for the clarification about solid foods.

          • Tara says:

            I have been giving my daughter and I the Nat Phos. The first 2 days were better the second 2 not so much but the one time she had frozen breast milk from before I started taking the pills. The last couple days have been better with her only spitting up none to about 2 times. Sometimes it was up to 12 times a day before. Last night she had mucus in her throat like what Victoria said about. Hopefully she gets over that quickly.

            • Joe says:

              Your baby seems to be making good progress in just 4 days on my Nat Phos therapy.
              You will continue the therapy and she should hopefully be able to do without any in a few weeks from now.

    My 9 year old is suffering from horrible reflux/ heartburn. She has been on omeprazole for quite some time. I am interested in starting your treatment. I am concerned about what will happen if I stop the omeprazole because I’ve read many sad accounts of stopping it, especially suddenly. Advice? Do I wean her? How?

  209. Victoria Granados says:

    My 7 weeks 5 days baby old daughter spits up a lot and sometimes it seems more like she is throwing up because it is more than just a small amount. She had been having milk come out her nose every other day or so but seeems to be less lately. She has wet burps as well. She started to have nasal congestion that makes her gurgle and choke during the day and also at night. She is breastfed and eats every hour only from one side for about 4/5 minutes. The pediatrician prescribed Ranitidine 0.5 ml twice a day. She has been taking it for a week now and I don’t see any changes. What advice could you please give me? Thank you very much for your help.

      I am happy that you discovered my Website and would like to know how you did so as a matter of interest. You may not know that I am 86 years of age and am not a professional Homeopath although I did study this Science 40 years ago. I use standard Homeopathic remedies in a non classical manner and if you would like to know more about my therapy you can do so by doing a search under “Joepathy” both on my Website and on Google.

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
      Do not give the MMR Vaccine in One shot as there is plenty of evidence on the Web of severe side effects which can result. You are advised to give it in 3 separate shots if you must do so, after baby is 2 years old.

      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

    Hello Sir, I’m happy to have stumbled upon your website. I’m wondering if this remedy will help with my one month old sons gas. He has gas constantly. We’ve eliminated dairy, have had chiropractic care, gripe water and gas drops. I hate to see him in pain. Thank you.

    Hello Mr. Delivera. I have an 8 month old daughter that suffers from silent reflux. The doctors prescribed Zantac about a month ago and I immediately saw results. However, the symptoms worsened after a couple of days. The pediatrician then prescribed nexium but I was reluctant to try another medication before seeking homeopathic remedies. I came across your site and read so many positive reviews. I decided to give it a try before consulting with you due to how desperate I was (maybe a bad call from my part). Anyhow, based off of what I read from what you recommended other people that had similar experiences, I began giving my daughter nat phos 6x 5 times a day after a meal. I took nat phos 6x and arnica 30c. I saw significant improvement for a week and a half- no spitting up, no reflux, no discomfort. All of a sudden the symptoms have returned. It’s been two weeks and three days that she’s been on this therapy. What should I do? Thank you in advance.

    • Joe says:

      Glad to note that you have used my therapy with Nat Phos 6x to help baby and although she first improved she later regressed after a few days, with the previous symptoms returning.

      It seems to me that Baby is not responding to the Nat Phos 6x alone and it is time to add Nux Vomica 30c in the Wet dose to reinforce its action.
      You will make it as per instructions below and give half teaspoonful, twice daily.

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Get Nux Vomica 30c in the standard pellets and insert just 6 pellets into a 500ml bottle of Spring Water.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Shake the bottle hard before you give baby half teaspoonful twice daily.

      You will stop the Nux Vomica as soon as you find that baby is OK but you will continue the Nat Phos for as long as you feel that it is needed. NP is NOT a drug and is absolutely safe in use for long periods.

      Report progress in 48 hours.

    Hello,
    Thank you so much for you website, information and help.
    My baby is four weeks old and I noticed the symptoms of reflux two and a half weeks ago. I have eliminated dairy, gluten, soy, eggs, nuts, and many vegetables and fruit in trying to figure out her trigger foods.
    I recently purchased Nat Phos 6x. Am I correct in understanding that I need to start her on half a tablet after each feed and if I don’t see improvement to up that to one full tablet, not to exceed six in one day? And I too need to be taking two tablets, three times a day as well? How long should we both take the Nat Phos 6x? I read else where that it shouldn’t be taken long term, but would like your direction on that.
    Thank you so much for your help,
    Kimberly

    • Joe says:

      I am simplpy amazed at the number of mothers who visit my Website for help with their babies who present Baby GERD. Your baby at just 4 weeks with reflux is rare as this occurs with babies who are older with the majority being treated with the dangerous PPI drugs like Zantac, Prevacid and others, all equally ineffective and what is more, ruled as dangerous by the FDA for adults but are given to babies who do not respond when a stronger dose is usually prescribed.

      I hope that my therapy aka “Joepathy” will help your baby.
      The dose is a whole tablet given in half before and the balance after a feed

    • Joe says:

      The PPI drugs prescribed by your paediatrician are of no avail and are DANGEROUS for babies. The FDA has ruled them as such, not me. Omeprazole is another of these drugs and you have already observed that it is useless.

    She used to take Prevacid for reflux she doesn’t do vomit but she has gas problem plus burps
    N hiccups after feeding not every feeding but sometimes spit out little milk that looks like sometime just clear water or yogurt type or sometimes like formula
    A little
    What should I do plz help why she only takes formula when falls asleep
    For how long should I give to her
    She’s already skinny
    Not taking solids

    Hi
    Thanks for your reply she doesn’t respond to nat phos 6x she still has this gas issues even though she will take one burp right after feeding or in 5 to 10 min then next in 30 min then next in 1 hour then another one and if she doesn’t take total of 5 burps she is not ready for next feeding even after 6 hours she will drink only 2 oz
    Can I give her colic calm together with nat phos 6
    And you saying that it won’t reduce my baby weight thank god
    I’m feeding her formula she doesn’t accept bottle every 2 hours minimum of 4 to 6 hours because of gas n reflux problem
    Plz help
    What should I give her for her burps I’m already giving her your remedy
    After each feeding sometimes half tablet sometimes one tab
    Or can I give her carom and cumin seed water
    Or colic calm with nat phos 6x
    Plz tell me what to do
    So upset so depressed

    • Joe says:

      If your baby does not respond to Nat Phos 6x it is obvious that you must change the brand of the milk powder you are giving her as she seems to be allergic to what you are given her now.

      Nat Phos 6x has been used by thousands of mothers for their babies and you can read their comments on my Website.

      You will have to give the Nat Phos 6x for at least 2 days before you condemn it as not being effective, as you have used it for just a few hours.

      Your baby is your own and you are free to give her whatever you wish.
      You do not have to seek my permission to do so.

    Hello Sir.
    I have a 3 month old baby girl and i have been giving her zantac but generic name for it is rantandine since she was 1 month old as she has silent reflux and it seems to not be working and ill do anything to help her as she is in pain after every feeding and just in pain period. Well she is formula fed and is on enfamil A.R which is a formula that already comes with added rice startch to thicken it and it is just getting her constipated i came across your remedy Nar Phos and am in need of directions on how to use with a anti reflux formula and if i can just stop her right away on the medication and start your remedy?

    • Joe says:

      I cannot understand the reason why your baby was prescribed Enfamil:
      “she is formula fed and is on enfamil A.R which is a formula that already comes with added rice startch to thicken it”

      You can consider your baby as being fortunate as you have identified my Website where I have treated hundreds of babies with my therapy aka “Joepathy” where I prescribe Nat Phos 6x which acts by stimulating Peristalsis and thereby inhibits reflux in both babies and adults (GERD) which is perhaps the most effective and safe remedy to cure Reflux in babies and GERD in adults. I shall copy my default therapy below and would request you to change over to the standard Enfamil formula without the rice starch which you have observed is causing even more distress to your 3 month old infant.

        Thanks and yeah they just told me too give her that formula since its already thinkened cause it would sit at the bottom of her stomach so she wont spit up as much so the acid wont come up and i just fed her this morning and gave her 1 tablet in a little bit of water.

        • Joe says:

          Suggest you follow my instructions about giving baby half tablet before and the balance after a feed as many mothers have confirmed that this is the most effective way to treat baby with my therapy.

          • Anna says:

            Ok i just figured 1 whole tablet cause i read some of the other stories and it says 1 whole tablet after feeding

            • Joe says:

              I revised my therapy aka “Joepathy” based on reports I received from mothers that the half tablet given before and after a feed was more effective.

  223. Ryan says:

    Hello Sir, my daughter is currently 6 weeks old (8.5lb) and was diagnosed with GERD at 4 weeks old . She was vomiting after feeds and then had loss of appetite as a result. The doctor prescribed her Xantac and it has worked well for her, she does not vomit any longer and the reflux is at bay for the most part as she still has small amounts of back arching and wet burps. However my wife and I do not want her on a PPI for the obvious reasons. Our baby is solely formula fed, Earths Best Sensitive, as my wife was not able to produce enough milk, and yes, we tried most natural remedies to stimulate production. She is also receiving probiotics daily. I already purchased the Nat Phos 6x and Vomica 30c but have not started either as I would like your advice on the best approach. As soon as I hear from you, we will begin with your recommendations. I appreciate your time, thank you!

    • Joe says:

      I note from your IP address that you live in Wichita, where it will be just before midnight at the moment.

      It is a pity that your wife gave up on feeding her breast milk and this can be rectified in 48 hours if she takes Arnica 6c in the Wet dose thrice daily, made as per instructions below.

      I note that you have studied my therapy and have already got Nat Phos 6x and Nux Vomica 30c. Do not however use the Nux V right now as it is potentized Strychnine and is best reserved for use on a SOS basis.

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD below:

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
      Do not give the MMR Vaccine in One shot as there is plenty of evidence on the Web of severe side effects which can result. You are advised to give it in 3 separate shots if you must do so, after baby is 2 years old.

      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy(Arnica 6c) is made as follows:

      Order the remedy in the Ethanol / Alcohol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
      Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
      Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done at least 6 times before sipping a capful of the bottle as prescribed.

    Hi Mr.Joe, My baby girl has reflux since she was 4 weeks old she refuses the bottle arc back and has difficulty swallowing her formula, she makes bubbles on her saliva, dosen’t nap during the day at night she sleeps good but when she gets up to eat she arches and refuses to eat then she falls sleep and eats her bottle but takes at least 1 hour for 3oz that happens during the day too she hiccup a lot. At 6 weeks they put her on ranitidine 15mg. 3 times a day but after few day i didn’t see any resolts kept her on it for about 2weeks she vomited cupple time something she wasn’t doing before and she fusses also in the morning she has stuffy nose and sore throat and cough i think it got worst with the med because the main problem was she was refussing to eat and arching but after feeding she used to be ok. And after reading your page over and over again i decided to give her nap phos 6x and stop ranitidine. its been 2day i give her one tablet after every feed she gets 7 feeds in 24 hours so at her 3pm and 6pm i just give her half tablet no more than 6 a day i seen some improvement she dosent refuses or arches too much during the day feeds but at night and morning she does and she still  has sore throw and stuffy nose in the morning and cough. She still bobbles her saliva and spit up. Also in the afternoon she gets fussy and still don’t nap but she sleeps good at night. i know is probably to soon to see a100%improvement. the 3rd day was the same but in the afternoon she started to be so fussy and cry a lot i got scared because is the first time she gets like that and at her 6pm feed she vomited all her bottle so bad i thoight may be the np isn’t doing anything but i decided to keep giving her np .just wanted to ask for your opinion to see if i should add nax vomica 30c. Sorry my eglish is so bad i hope you can understand me ..she is 2 months now.

      Get Nux Vomica 30c in the standard pellets and insert just 6 pellets into a 500ml bottle of Spring Water.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Shake the bottle hard before you give baby half teaspoonful twice daily.

      You will stop the Nux Vomica as soon as you find that baby is OK but you will continue the Nat Phos for as long as you feel that it is needed. NP is NOT a drug and is absolutely safe in use for long periods.

    Respected Mr. Livera,

    My name is Anand, I live in Romania. I have a son who is 3 months old (exactly). We have observed that he is having silent reflux. We tried to give him espumisan drops that are mainly for cholic pain but somehow also work for reflux till some point but are not good enough. Our baby has the following problems :

    – While being breastfed he keeps moving away and arching his back

    – If he is put down on bed (even if inclined or flat), he many times end up having hiccups

    – Most of the time, after being burped while/after feeding, he is very very unsettled with pain. Sometimes it is pain because of gas or reflux burning feeling I suppose

    – He has a lot of saliva

    – His poop smells recently like vinegar (more sourish)

    – His keeps waking up very easily and sleeps with very difficulty (because of reflux, cholic pain)

    We also tried to give him Nexium. But as soon as we heard about Natrum Phos 6x we wanted to give a try. And tried to stop giving him Nexium completely. In romania we only have Nat. Phos. 6x in form of tablets, we only have pellets (sugar ball). Beside that we also have other things that might help but we do not know exactly in what way we should give the these medicines to have proper effect to improve our son’s condition. I have the following in home:

    – Natrium Phos. 6x (I hope it is same as Natrum Phos.)
    – Nux Vomica CH15
    – Colocynthis CH9
    – Lycopodium CH15
    – Formula 34

    So far we were dissolving 2 balls of Natrium Phos. 6x and 2 balls of Nux Vomica CH15 in 1ml water and giving our son every 4-6 hours. We did see some improvement but today after breast feeding all the milk came out and in evening he has been extremely unsettled and in pain.

    I would really appreciate if you could guide us about the doses and which medication in what manner should be given.

    I hope to hearing from you soon.

    Best regards,

      Nat Phos or Natrium Phosphoricum 6x is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may give baby 3 pellets each 3mm Ø before and another 3 pellets after a feed dissolved in milk and report results.

        Hello,

        We are willing to go ahead with your default therapy for Baby GERD.

        I apologize for my mistake in my previous message. In Romania we do not have X but we only have CH. We have – Natrium Phos. 9ch. I am not sure if CH is the same as X.

        Also we do not have tablets of Natrum Phos.

        Our son is being breastfed and nothing else. He is breast fed very often (per hour or an hour and a half)

        Considering that CH type, how should the doese of Nat. Phos. be?
        We have stopped all the other remedies.

        I hope to hear from you soon.

  227. Julie says:

    Hello Mr. De Livera,

    After some research, I suspect my 7 month old baby has silent reflux. Various forums have directed me here.

    My son is exclusively breastfed, and we have recently been giving him solids in very small portions. He has been unable to sleep more than 1 – 2 hours at a time at night. When he wakes up I would breastfeed him back to sleep. He would wake and then rub his face vigorously. If I hold him against my chest he would seem more comfortable, but still rub his face into my shoulder. For a few nights the only way I could get him to sleep was by holding him against me while I sat up in bed.

    Generally it seems that he is only comfortable when he is upright or nursing. As soon as we try to lie him down or if we rock him in a non-upright position he would cry. There have also been days/nights where he would refuse to nurse by arching his back.

    He is a very gassy baby, and has been having bowel movement (“BM”) issues for the past 2 months. The days between BMs have gradually increased, from every day, to every 2 days, and so on. The longest he’s been without a BM was 10 days, at which point we gave him a suppository.

    If my son does not actually have reflux, but we give him Nat Phos 6x according to your specifications, would that be harmful to him? Does it sound like he has reflux to you?

    Your advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

    Julie

    • Joe says:

      I note that you have read my therapy for Baby GERD and you have already given him Nat Phos 6x hopefully in the half dose before and after every feed.

      It is likely that he is not ready as yet for solids and suggest you stop them for a couple of months.

      I have never had a report of a 10 day delay in a BM and am glad that you inserted suppository. I have had reports of 6 days but never 10. 2-5 can be considered normal.

      Nat Phos 6x is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is absolutely safe in use for both Babies and Adults. Google the term.

      His gassiness will be fixed by the NP.

    Thank you
    Rebeca

    • Joe says:

      I had to check Laryngomalacia on Google to know what it was all about and it is no surprise that baby suffers from chronic GERD.

      My default therapy for baby GERD has helped unknown thousands of babies and I am not surprised that he does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x as it is the structure of his throat and neck that is responsible for his current problem which you described:
      “Since he was born he had problems with Gerd.He also has laryngomalacia which doesn t help him with reflux.He also has a cricked neck.”

      It is possible that you may have to consult a paediatric surgeon to help the multiple problems that your baby has been born with and all I can do is to hope and pray that my default therapy for Baby GERD can help him.

      Do not give him the standard drugs prescribed by doctors for Baby GERD which are all in the PPI (Proton Pump Inhibitor) group and all of which have been ruled as dangerous by the FDA. You can do a search on Google under “The danger of PPI drugs” to realise what other problems will be caused by these drugs.

      You can mail order the remedies in the Liquid Dilution from:

      Washington Homeopathic Products
      http://www.homeopathyworks.com
      1 800 336 1695

      You can also visit your local Health Food store for the remedies as it is very likely that they stock them in your city.

      Feel free to contact me for any advice which I shall be glad to give you both now and in the future.

  231. Charie says:

    I have read the testimonies regarding your GERD cure. My daughter is 10 weeks old with silent reflux. My doctor has me mixing formula with my breast milk to thicken it to keep down. I want to try the Nat Phos 6x., however, she just received her vaccinations on 01/18. Can I try your therapy or do I have to wait? Thanks in advance for any advice you can offer.

    • Joe says:

      I am simply amazed by the stupidity of doctors who:
      “has me mixing formula with my breast milk to thicken it to keep down.”
      He does not realise that thickening of your milk with formula will make a bad situation infinitely worse.

      My default therapy with Nat Phos 6x will stimulate Peristalsis and it will ensure that the excess acid that results in baby’s digestive process not functioning for a few more weeks is helped. What is more is that NP6x is absolutely safe in use as it is not a drug.

    Thank you very much for the advice. My daughter has been on the therapy for 5 days. I already see a drastic change. I no longer give her formula. She gets 4 ounces whereas before she could barely hold 2.5. I still get wet burps every now and then. I’m sure that will get better as I continue her on the therapy. The Nat Phos 6x has also corrected her constipation issues. Sometimes it’s a little watery though. Now I am just working on what I eat in my diet. I’m hoping that will decrease some of her phlem. I will keep you posted with how she is doing.

    • Joe says:

      Glad to learn that my therapy aka “Joepathy” has worked so very quickly.

      It is the Nat Phos that is the cause of her watery stool but this is a small price to pay for the improvement in her status. You may try to reduce the dose and see how she responds.

  233. Charie says:

    My little one is doing better but still spits up after a feeding sometimes. Should I try the Nux Vomica?

    • Joe says:

      I would prefer that you do not give her the Nux V as she seemed to be doing OK with the Nat Phos alone.
      Nux Vomica in its raw state is the source of Strychnine which is a poison.
      The Homeopathic product is safe in use and is only to be used on a SOS basis.

      You will make it as per instructions below and give half teaspoonful, twice daily.

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Get Nux Vomica 30c in the standard pellets and insert just 6 pellets into a 500ml bottle of Spring Water.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Shake the bottle hard before you give baby half teaspoonful twice daily.

      You will stop the Nux Vomica as soon as you find that baby is OK but you will continue the Nat Phos for as long as you feel that it is needed. NP is NOT a drug and is absolutely safe in use for long periods.

    Hello Dr.Joe De Livera. I am convinced that my son who is 4 month old and weighted 16lb on 20th of Jan has silent GERD. He makes gulping sounds and wiggles when feeding,chokes,frequently coughs,hiccups, belching and swallowing after an hour after feeding and does it for another hour gagging and aggressively sucking/his hand. His tummy makes gurgling,rumbling sounds and does not burb most of the time even thought I hold him for 30 min to an hour afrter every feed. He is exclusively breastfeed and he feeds between 8 and 10 times. He goes to sleep between 12 and 2 am in the morning, wakes up throug the night to feed and sleeps well in the morning until mid day, after that he hardly sleeps and is restless. He used to cry and arches his back/ pulls his knees between 10 pm and 2 am but now hi does it also throug the day. I noticed that he had several 6-8hrs sleep in the night when he feels better. I don’t give him any medications only lycopodium 30c or pulsatilla30c when he cry because it settles him until next feed. I started giving him 1 tablet nat phos 6x soft tablets 3 times a day ( I put them straight in his mount because they dissolve fast I hope that I have not done anything bad) but it does not make any differens. My son was born by c cection at 37weeks and 3 days because I developed obstetric holestasis. I also had gestational diabetes and anemia when pregnant and constant heartburn and sickness until the birth. Just a week ago I was diagnosed with autoimmune hepatitis also I raise my baby on my own because my partner does not help and had been very nasty and shouting to me sins middle of my pregnancy. He pushed me to vaccinate my son and give him medications but I refuse. I am not on any medications because I refused due to breastfeeding my son. I’ve just started taking pure liquid zeolite yesterday to help rid of toxins. I would be very great-full to you if you could help us as you are my last hope. I am sending you ligth and love. Thank you so much

    Looking for advice for my baby. She is 6 weeks old and has shown more signs of reflux for the last 3 weeks. She is exclusively breastfeeding and we are using the ‘baby-led’ method (no defined schedule). No vaccinations. Her first few weeks of life only presented the symptom of fussiness at night. I am currently administering an infant probiotic powder to her daily mixed into breast milk. I am also on a whole foods diet sans processed foods, sugars, and dairy.

    No formal diagnosis. Current symptoms include: Frequent very short feeds (cannot fill up efficiently), frequent burping (I burp her a couple times during each feeding), frequent spitting up, flatulence, bloating, random bursts of fussiness, congestion slightly during day but more severe at night which inhibits breathing and a good sleep, facial acne.

    After reading most of this thread, I gather that you recommend Nat Phos 6x alone at first in an effort to remain conservative. I have a few questions regarding Nat Phos and the other similar remedies for reflux/GERD: does the body ever develop dependancy on these remedies or do these remedies facilitate a permanent correction of malfunctioning upper digestion? I understand Nat Phos increases the speed of digestion? How else does Nat Phos work in the aide of digestion? It has always been in my nature to know things of this nature more thoroughly. I am familiar with the school of thought that many people have inadequate amounts of stomach acid which then never signals the esophageal valve to close, causing heartburn/ reflux up through the open valve. Therefore reducing acid in those scenarios would be an erroneous move.

    Aside from all the questions I am still proceeding with purchasing this remedy (Hylands brand) based on other people’s stories and successes. Time is of the essence for me as my baby’s symptoms at night are the most distressing. Since I am in a location that does not have these homeopathic remedies via a physical location, I need to order all products online (which mean enduring the wait times for shipment).

    In what situation do you recommend Arnica for the mother to take from the very start? If this product is for my case, I would like to order that as well in a timely fashion. In the event Arnica is appropriate for my case, could you please let me know if this source of correct strength?: http://hawaii-pharm.com/shop/heart-health/product/397-arnica-arnica-montana-liquid-extract. I am new to the strength notation for homeopathy (6c, 60c, etc). The already prepared liquid remedies such as the one I linked earlier would be very convenient for busy mothers like myself if they are similar to what you recommend but they are largely without indication of the strength.

    Please let me know what you recommend and please advise on the dosage for Nat Phos since some of your recommendations are on a case by case basis.

    Thank you for your time and help,
    Vina

      I hope you understand and appreciate that I am not a professional Homeopath as this science is only my Hobby to which I am dedicated.
      I do NOT practice ‘classical’ Homeopathy and it is up to you to use my therapy or to ignore it as in any case it is free of charge.
      Also please note that I am 86 years old and I established my Website to ensure that my therapy aka “Joepathy” lives on long after me at the earnest request of patients.

      Joe De Livera

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
      Do not give the MMR Vaccine in One shot as there is plenty of evidence on the Web of severe side effects which can result. You are advised to give it in 3 separate shots if you must do so, after baby is 2 years old.

      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.

    I didn’t give her the Nux Vomica. I have just been giving her the Nat Phos 6x. She spits up mucus but my doctor wants me to take her to a pulmonary doctor to figure out the cause.

    • Joe says:

      I agree. You must understand that I cannot diagnose the problem and advise you on my Website for obvious reasons.

      I would appreciate if you will please report the diagnosis and the treatment prescribed.

    Thank you for sharing your knowledge on this website
    I have a 5 month old baby she is 12 lbs and 14 oz. She has been put on omeperazole which I would like to stop and try something more natural. I’m breastfeeding and she has many food intolerances as there was blood and mucus in her stool. I’ve cut out dairy, soy, wheat, legumes, beans, peanuts, and eggs from my diet so far. I’d appreciate any advice. Thank you!

      • Melissa says:

        Thank you so much Dr. Livera. We have stopped the PPI and have been using the Nat phos 6x for about a day and a half now. Baby still seems to be in pain from her reflux. I have read that stopping the PPI can cause painful “acid rebound”, should I give it a few more days or should I try to add another therapy?
        I also wanted to ask if it is OK to dissolve the Nat phos tablet in a few drops of purified water rather than milk as I don’t have much pumped breast milk left.

        Thank you so much,
        Melissa

        • Joe says:

          I presume that you are following the therapy outlined in my prescription and you would have given baby half tablet before and the balance after a feed.

          I note from your question that you do not seem to have read and understood my therapy and you will notice that your questions have already been answered.

          • Melissa says:

            Thank you Dr Livera,
            Yes I have been following the protocol just as described (half tablet before feed and the rest after the feed up to 6 tablets a day). I have been dissolving in a little milk. My question is since I don’t have much pumped breast milk left, can I use water to dissolve the tablet prior to giving to baby?
            Also, you mentioned to contact you again if the nat phos alone wasnt working, but how long should I wait? It does not seem to be working alone at this time.

            Thank you!
            Melissa

            • Joe says:

              You did not report your baby’s response to my therapy and this is important for me to instruct you further.

              Answering your question, you can certainly dissolve the half tablet in a few drops of water which you can insert on baby’s tongue to ensure that he does not spit it out. There is no objection to your using more water but it just depends on baby.

  238. Michelle says:

    Hello Mr. De Livera,

    Thank you so much for your posts they have been very informative. My baby will be 8 weeks old on Monday and has been diagnosed with acid reflux and prescribed Zantac twice a day for it. I would like to try to relieve him naturally. I started giving him 1/2 a tablet of nat phos after feeds and only 1 dose of the Zantac. He was on this for about 2 weeks. He seemed better and happier, but was straining more for pooping so I stopped the nat phos and took him back to the Dr, who increased his dose of Zantac. I did not find this page until recently and had been going off of other posts I had seen of yours on ab homeopathy.com, which stated to only give the nat phos after the feeding. My baby seems to be reverting back to his fussiness before I started the Nat phos, fussy after feeding and fussy at night. Can not nap for longer than 1 hour and wakes up making the reflux noise as if something is coming back up. My questions are:
    1. Should I stop the Zantac completly
    2. How long can the baby be on this remedy with out damage? He was at 2 weeks, not sure if he can be on it longer than that.
    3. How would I know when to stop it, and dose I need reduce the dose gradually.

    I appreciate any insight you can provide and appreciate your help.

    Dear Dr Delivera,

    Thank you for such valuable information. My little one is 3.5 months old and she has developed a silent reflux. These symptoms started when she was about 2months+. Here are the symptoms.

    1. She refuses(cries frantically) to take the bottle when she is awake. Even though we know she is hungry(she wants to grab her hands in her mouth and tries to eat the burp cloth/bib), if we distract her and feed her, she ends up taking only 1-2 ounces in about half hour.

    2. If we sleep feed her, she takes about 3-4oz of milk. Sometimes she finishes in 10 min and sometimes she takes about 45 min.

    3. Her total intake when she was a month old was between 22-26oz a day and now that she is 3.5 months, it averages to about 18-20 oz a day. Thus, it has significantly reduced.

    4. Many times she keeps playing in her playgym while lying on her back happily and then suddenly she will start crying, spits out water like substance or curd like and we would need to hold her upright. She will keep crying and would pass few small burps and the crying stops followed by sleep.

    5. She cries on Tummy time in just few minutes.

    6. She is sleeping nicely during the night (7pm – 7am). We sleep feed her at 7pm and 10pm and then at 5 am in the morning.

    7. During day time she does not sleep much(15 min cat naps) and thus do not eat well at all since she is mostly awake. She is lot better during the evening times and takes food much easily. Most of the days she finishes only about 12oz from morning 5AM – evening 7pm. Then we sleep feed her 4oz during both 7pm and 10 pm feed and thus completing her daily 18-20oz.

    Current Medications. – Vitamin D drops and NatPhos 6x

    Doctor mentioned that we should start her on Zantac(on 2.5 months checkup for refusing to feed) but we did not wanted to do that. We stumbled upon your post and started to try NatPhos.

    Started on March 1st, it has been about a week. We are sometimes giving her 1/2 before feed and 1/2 after feed, sometimes when she is too cranky and we cannot give her medicine via syringe, we dissolved a tablet in the bottle itself and feed her. Other times at night when sleep feeding her, we give her 1 tablet after the feed.

    As a mother I started taking NatPhos 3 times a day around March4th. Since I am also taking Prenatal Vitamins, I am not sure if I should stop taking my supplements etc. while I am taking NatPhos.

    Progress after starting NatPhos. – We have seen that she was a little less cranky and crying for few days but her food intake did not increase. Now from March 6th, she is still sleep feeding and cries if we lay her down. Since last 2 days Nat Phos is not helping her much. We are not sure if we need to alter the dosage or as you suggested in couple of posts to supplement with few other medicines too.

    Please help since we are in a lot of distress.

    Regards

    • Joe says:

      It seems to me that Baby is not responding to the Nat Phos 6x alone and it is time to add Nux Vomica 30c in the Wet dose to reinforce its action.
      You will make it as per instructions below and give half teaspoonful, twice daily.

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Get Nux Vomica 30c in the standard pellets and insert just 6 pellets into a 500ml bottle of Spring Water.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Shake the bottle hard before you give baby half teaspoonful twice daily.

      You will stop the Nux Vomica as soon as you find that baby is OK but you will continue the Nat Phos for as long as you feel that it is needed. NP is NOT a drug and is absolutely safe in use for long periods.

      Report progress in 48 hours.

    Good day Dr. Joe. My son is 7months old and he brings out his food a lot and he’s skinny because though his stomach area seems larger than the rest of his body. Recently, he’s started to sit but every time he sits for more than a minute he brings out his food making it tough to practice. He’s been like this since birth but now its getting worse. I started him on solids when he turned six months and he seemed okay but now the reflux has worsened. Bowel movement is also very hard for him. Before I went back to work, he found it hard to continue breastfeeding, he would turn away especially when the milk starts flowing well. Now my milk production has declined because he doesnt suck it more..only short periods at night. I really want him to breast feed better. he’s so skinny I’m worried for him…he takes the formula and solids well but will bring out a lot of it about six times after each feed. Now he doesn’t want to eat much again. And he always breathes like his nose is blocked, he eyes also tear alot and some sticky stuff too from his eyes and i guess its because of the constant blocked nose. I tried using nose drops but it didnt work. I guess if we can cure the reflux the nose issue will be solved too. I hope. Please how can you help me. Thank you for how you have helped a lot of babies. God bless you.

    • Tinu says:

      I forgot to add, he’s on vitamin c drops and cod liver oil.
      Thank you.

    • Joe says:

      He is NOT ready for solids at 6 months and you must stop all solids to enable him to drink your breast milk. You can refrigerate your milk after pumping it and he can be fed your stored milk when you are not around.

      His reflux will be arrested and his constipation will be stabilized with your milk. If you are not lactating enough, you can take Arnica 6c in the Wet dose twice daily to stimulate it. His nose is blocked due to the acid reflux which hits his delicate nasal membranes. I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD and he should be OK in 24 hours.

      Also STOP the Vitamin C as this is far too acidic for babies. Cod liver oil is not indicated for babies either. Suggest you change your pediatrician ASAP as he is just fooling around with your baby.

    Hello Dr. Delivera. I was hoping you could help me out with my two month old daughter. Around 3 weeks old, she started to cry when I would nurse her, pull away and latch back on. As time went on she ate less and less. She was born 6lb, 6oz and it took her a month to gain back to her birth weight. Around 6 weeks old her pediatrician admitted her to the hospital which there they put a feeding tube in her nose and labeled her as failure to thrive. I believe she has reflux but am not sure if anything else could cause her this. She has since been gaining weight but still not eating more than half an oz by mouth every three hours. The meds they gave her for reflux I am not giving because I don’t want to risk it. I have read all these posts and am waiting for nat phos to arrive in the mail. During the hospital stay they didn’t allow me to nurse her only pump because they needed to monitor the amount she was eating, since then she doesn’t want to nurse at all, only bottle, I still pump and supplement with formula. Do you think there is a chance for her to get better and eat on her own? I am very skeptical of the tube and fear she will never learn to eat if its in, and maybe she will have a dependency on it. Is there anything you can recommend?

    Thank you for responding! Since the nat phos will reduce my weight, will it affect her weight too?

    • Joe says:

      I have prescribed Nat Phos 6x to hundreds of babies on my Website since 2005 and none of their mothers has ever reported any weight loss of their babies.

      The mothers usually report a reduction of their own weight by 1kg per week.

      You can verify if NP affects your own baby by weighing her often and reporting any loss to me.

      Have you given her the Nat Phos 6x as prescribed and if so how did she respond?

      • Tanya says:

        Yes I gave her the nat phos. It seemed to make her a little sleep and a little more calm after the first use. Also she seemed to want to eat with a little more enthusiasm, still half an oz though. After that time though she seems to be the same as before. Its been almost 24 hours since I started and she is behaving the same way as before I would say. Definitely not eating more She threw up once, not sure if its because she gagged on the bottle or from the nat phos.

        • Tanya says:

          Hello again. The nat phos seemed to help her for a day or two and now its not helping as much. I’ve been giving her 6 tablets in 24hours. What should I do next? Also do you have any suggestions on how to help her eat from the bottle more? I feel she may have an oral aversion.

          • Joe says:

            You first consulted me on March 15 and you have given baby the Nat P 6x for just 4 days. Please be patient and observe the improvement in your baby who is just a few weeks old.

            Some babies are born with digestive systems that cannot handle the digestion of even mother’s milk and you can consider yourself as being fortunate to consult me as this remedy Nat Phos 6x is my own discovery to treat both infant and adult GERD.

            Give it a few more weeks and report baby’s progress after it helps her stomach to digest your milk.

            I note that you are anxious to start her on the bottle but this will make her GERD even more pronounced.
            Your Breast Milk is best for her.

            • Tanya says:

              I will give it a few more weeks. But I can only give her the bottle, as when we were in the hospital, they didn’t let me breastfeed and after that she doesn’t want the breast anymore at all. She only takes a little bit from the bottle and the rest we have to put through the feeding tube that goes through her nose into her stomach. I know that the tube makes her reflux and gagging worse, but that is the only was she can get fed because she only takes 10 ml of the bottle every time, sometimes nothing at all.

              • Joe says:

                It seems obvious to me that you cannot continue to feed her through the GI Tube as you are doing today. I am presuming that you are giving her your Breast Milk and not Formula. Please confirm and state the reason why your doctor started her on this protocol.

                You have not reported on how she is progressing today after you started her on the Nat Phos 6x therapy and would like to have a detailed report on how you are doing so today.

                • Tanya says:

                  I am giving her formula because my milk already dried up since she wasn’t nursing anymore. Her pediatrician admitted her to the hospital because she wasn’t gaining enough weight and was refusing to breastfeed after a few seconds of nursing. In the hospital they labeled her as failure to thrive and put the gi tube in. She still continues to only eat 10-15 ml on her own in one time and then refuses the bottle.
                  She has been throwing up a couple times a day, I’m not too sure what it could be from, we recently changed formula as well. She seems to be more congested and I still hear how the milk comes up and she swallows it back down. This happens quite often. Maybe 3-4 times an hour give or take. Last night she projectile vomited in her sleep which is rare for her as before she would never throw anything up, it would just be silent reflux.

                • Tanya says:

                  Its been a week and a half that I have started using nat phos. She still doesn’t eat anything by herself, only through tube. We are going to take the tube out for a week, she may have an oral aversion. Should I give her nux vomica as well? If she continues not to eat anything by mouth?

    • Joe says:

      Your baby suffers from Reflux of the milk he feeds on as his digestive system is not quite ready to do so. The majority of babies are able to digest breast milk but a few do not and yours is one of them. My therapy using Nat Phos 6x is by far the safest and most effective Homeopathic remedy to help your baby and I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
      Do not give the MMR Vaccine in One shot as there is plenty of evidence on the Web of severe side effects which can result. You are advised to give it in 3 separate shots if you must do so, after baby is 2 years old.

      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.

        Dear Dr.delivera,
        I have been giving my son 5-6 tablet a day as you directed, on first day he showed a bit better, he could sleep 4 hours straight at night. However, on 2nd day until now not much improvement, he couldnt sleep on his back for more thab 30min, He still has multiple burping even after feeding 1-2h, sometime spits up.
        Please advice me on what to do next

        Thanks so much for your help

        • Joe says:

          It seems to me that Baby is not responding to the Nat Phos 6x alone and it is time to add Nux Vomica 30c in the Wet dose to reinforce its action.
          You will make it as per instructions below and give half teaspoonful, twice daily.

          The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

          Get Nux Vomica 30c in the standard pellets and insert just 6 pellets into a 500ml bottle of Spring Water.
          Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
          Shake the bottle hard before you give baby half teaspoonful twice daily.

          You will stop the Nux Vomica as soon as you find that baby is OK but you will continue the Nat Phos for as long as you feel that it is needed. NP is NOT a drug and is absolutely safe in use for long periods.

          Report progress in 48 hours.

    Hello Dr. Livera,

    I have been following this thread for awhile. My baby is 8 weeks old and has been suffering with reflux for a few weeks. My milk never fully came in so I have to supplement with formula. I have chosen a goat’s milk formula since it has more natural ingredients with the brand I chose. She doesn’t get much milk from me, but I give her what I can. She probably gets an ounce from me for each feeding. I will pump a little less than .05 ounce. My question is, is it possible the Nat phos 6x could make symptoms worse? I started her on half a pill on Thursday and did not notice any symptoms getting better so we did 1 whole pil with each feeding for the last 24 hours and it seems that her symptoms are worse. She will barley take any formula without crying and arching her back and refusing to eat. I also noticed she has been thrashing in her sleep more (shaking head side to side and kicking legs, arching back.) She will be asleep when this happens and last up to 2 hours. She is also not napping as well as she was before I started nas phos 6x. I will rock her to sleep for half an hour and watch her as the reflux comes up and wakes her back up. I have ordered the Nux vomica 30, but it is not scheduled to be delivered until the end of this month. I am not sure what to do since I would hope to see some improvement, but only seeing her worse than before. We also have her sleeping on a 30 degree angle. Any advice is appreciated on how to proceed or help her. I have also used some aloe vera juice to help some of her pain. 1/2 tsp.

    • Joe says:

      Arnica 6c in the Wet dose will stimulate your lactation problems. You will take it twice daily and report your response. Please note that this is NOT for baby.
      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Order the remedy in the Ethanol / Alcohol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
      Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
      Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done at least 6 times before sipping a capful of the bottle as prescribed.

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

      I note that you have given just half tablet of NP6x but this is not sufficient for a dose. NP is not a drug and is absolutely safe in use.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

  246. Erin K. says:

    Thanks for your reply Dr Delivera,

    In my last message, I stated that I started with 1/2 pill but moved to full pill and have not seen any positive improvements. Tonight, she would barely take any food and just kept arching her back. We put her down to bed (on an angle) and she screamed and cried in pain louder than I have ever heard her before. That is why I asked if there is a case that your method of Nat Phos 6x could make worse? Or when should I start to see improvement? Thursday afternoon we started her on Nat Phos, and now it is Sunday night and her symptoms have only gotten worse.

    You mentioned I could take the Nat Phos 6x, and Arnica 6c. Do you know if either are safe to take with the current hypothyroid medication I am on (synthroid)

    What do you advise for my daughter. We feel so bad for her and her pain, my husband just wants me to take her to the doctor to get on medication.

    Thanks so much.

    Erin

    • Joe says:

      “What do you advise for my daughter. We feel so bad for her and her pain, my husband just wants me to take her to the doctor to get on medication.”

      I have prescribed my Nat Phos 6x therapy which has helped literally thousands of babies to overcome their Baby GERD but according to you it is not helping.

      You are the parents and it is up to you to do what you feel is best for your baby.

  247. Erin K. says:

    “If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.”

    That is what you said in your first response to me. I advised to you that she is not responding and you didn’t give me another remedy as you promised and just said to do what we feel best. I do not feel best to give her prescriptions, we are just at a loss and don’t want her to be in pain.

    I would appreciate to hear your other remedy before writing me off. Please and thank-you.

    • Joe says:

      The reason why I did not prescribe the other remedy Nux Vomica 30c in the Wet dose is because your baby is an infant at 8 weeks of age. Nat Phos 6x is not a drug and is absolutely safe for babies and I hope that your baby will snap out of her problems in the next 24 hours. You may however get Nux Vomica 30c in the standard pellets from your local supplier but you will not use it till I instruct you on how to do so.

      I do agree with you in your reluctance to use the standard PPI drugs which have all been classified by your FDA as being dangerous for adults when used in the long term and far worse for babies. Your pediatrician would have prescribed it as this is all that is available knowing fully well that your FDA has ruled it dangerous for adults for long term use.

      There is a possibility that your baby has a tongue tie and babies can present the same symptoms you describe with this problem which is corrected by snipping the tissue under the tongue. This is a simple operation but it must be done by a specialist to avoid any future problems for the baby in speech.

      You will have to consult a specialist to diagnose this problem.

  248. Erin says:

    Thanks for your response. She does not have a tongue tie because I had that checked when I was first having lactation problems. I had ordered the Nux Vomica per your advice to others, but you don’t think I should give that to her? How long should I continue with the Nat Phos before stopping. I am giving her 1 pill with each feeding. Half before and half after she eats.

    • Joe says:

      Let us evaluate her progress in 24 hours and you will NOT STOP the Nat Phos 6x as she will be lost without it.

      • Erin K. says:

        *24 hour update. Not much change. The feedings are still difficult, but a little bit better. She still arches her back and stops eating before she is full. She is also waking up from naps because of the acid coming up in her throat, and not sleeping well at night and thrashing around while she is asleep tossing her head back and forth and kicking her legs. This will last about 2 hours till she wakes up screaming then I give her aloe to soothe her throat.

        She seems to be constantly smacking her lips.
        I look forward to your reply and insight.

          • Erin K. says:

            Thank you for your reply. Is Nux Vomica 30c safe for an 8-week old baby? I only ask because you were hesitant to advise this before because of her age.

            I appreciate your time and patience.

        • Joe says:

          Quite frankly I would prefer not to prescribe it since she is an infant and it is because you were so anxious to ease her discomfort that I did so. Nux Vomica is potentized Strychnine and although it is very safe to be used in Homeopathy it still is derived from the poison Strychnine.

          You may like to know that my eldest son who is now 47 also suffered from the same acidity you described as a baby and I too have experienced the same trauma that you are undergoing today. I was not into Homeopathy at that time and was not able to help him to overcome baby GERD and he used to projectile vomit over my shoulder and SCREAM in agony.

          At that time there was no drug that could help my son and we suffered like you to bring him up to childhood. I would prefer that you follow my example for the next few days when your baby too will be OK soon.

    Sir, I have a baby boy 3 months old that was born 2 months early after I was in bed my while pregnancy with a subchrionic hemoraging and then my placenta abrupted … In febuary I took him to dr for a blue spell and they couldn’t find anything wrong so they said coukd be reflux and to have him sit up after feedings and for sleeping . He has always spit up after eating , he gains wheight fine , but spits up often even when not fed , not projectile though , but does have a stream here and there out the side of his mouth. He was hospitalized with RSV 2 weeks ago. The last 2 nights while sleeping more flat he was gasping for air his nose is still stuffy from being sick and last night he had bubbles coming out of mouth while gasping . I slept with him sitting up on my chest the last 2 nights after those episodes and he slept well. Do you have any ideas for me. Thanks for your time.. blessings

    • Joe says:

      Glad that you located my Website where you will read the many hundreds of babies I have treated for Baby GERD successfully.

      I do doubt your doctor’s diagnosis of RSV as it seems to me that baby suffers from Baby GERD which my therapy copied below will fix very quickly. It is very likely that she has inhaled some reflux which has irritated her lung/s and should pass away soon. Steam would help to soften the mucus in the lung which she can cough up. Try to keep her head lower than her body after the steam to promote draining the mucus with the residue of the reflux. You can use an electric kettle or jug with the lid open to humidify the air around baby and you must be with her to regulate the steam. Gentle tapping of her back with her head down lower than her chest will help drain the mucus.

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

    Dr. DeLivera,
    I just purchased the Nat Phos 6x for my 3 month old daughter Emma who is 12.4 pounds. Her silent reflux seems to be getting worse even though she is on Zantac and I do not want PPIs due to side effects. I exclusively breastfeed and she has sometimes refused to nurse and scream. Other times she will only nurse in a quiet environment or half asleep. I tried eliminating dairy for several weeks but it didn’t seem to help. I was going to start the half tablet with feedings but I just wanted to clarify that you recommend to stop zantac with your treatment, correct? Are probiotics ok to use? Thank you for your time and work you have put into this.

    I have a son of 5 and half months (6 kg) old and I live in Mozambique – Sofala.
    he started having the problem with 2 months old, he started refusing the breast feeding,so we started to give him bottle milk(nan)
    when he was 3 months old someday he was taking about 120 ml in all day, other days he was taking 450 ml per day. he didn’t gain any weight, he was 5.2 kg till 4 months, and loose about 400 grams, he started to refuses to take the bottle also, i had to feed him while he is sleeping but sometimes also in sleeping he was refusing, it was very difficult time.
    Only now the pediatrician diagnosis him with silent reflux and he prescribed has nexium and change milk to hypoallergenic milk , on the first week it was like a miracle because he started taking the milk normally and we were happy because he also increased the weight on 300g in one week, but after that the problem started again he started to refuse bottle again and reduce the quantity of milk he was taking 600ml per day now he takes 300 to 450 ml per day.
    I dont know what to do, please i need your help.

    hi Dr. DeLivera
    Sorry i just need to know if giving him Nat Phos 6x it will help him to get back his appetite and gain the weight? Because he is very happy child. He dosnt cry.
    The problem that he has is:
    – he dont have appetite, he can stay more than 6 to 8 hours without accept to take the bottle
    – hiccups after every feeding,
    – fuss and show discomfort by fighting and pulling off the bottle away, – – pulling their feet up and arching their back every time i try to give him bottle.
    i tried a lot to give him very small quantity in small time. but some days he will not accept milk before 5 to 6 hours, i try to insist but he does not drink, he refuse the bottle.
    Sorry for my insistence, but i have to know for his case if the nat phos will work alone or he have to reinforce with other remedy so i can oder everything together, because the medication can take more than 15 to 30 days to arrive in my city, so i dont want to take the risk of nat phos not work alone and i have to waith more days for other medications.

    Hello Dr. Delivera,
    I have a 5 months old daughter who I suspect has silent reflux.
    She is not vommiting or has excessive crying episodes but since she was born I can clearly see that she is not comfortable after feelings, has hiccups, doesn’t like to lay on her back, I can sometimes hear the fizz in her throat and belly (gurgles a lot) and she is making sounds while breathing when she sleeps.
    My husband suffers from reflux for years now so it all looked familiar.
    She would sleep at night and wake up every 2-3 hours and I suspect it is reflux/heartburn that wakes her up.
    The family doctor told us that she might have a bit of reflux when she was born but she is not losing weight so no medications prescribed (thankfully). Would you suggest we start treating with the Natrum Phos 6X? I want my baby to sleep comfortably and not suffer from discomfort after feeding. She is formula fed by the way (4 oz every 3-4 hours).
    Thank you in advance!!

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
      Do not give the MMR Vaccine in One shot as there is plenty of evidence on the Web of severe side effects which can result. You are advised to give it in 3 separate shots if you must do so, after baby is 2 years old.

      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.

      I note that your husband too suffers from GERD. If he wishes to be cured he can request assistance.

          Therapy for GERD

          It is very likely that you suffer from Hyperacidity or Gastritis, aka GERD (Gastro Esophagal Reflux Disease) and I shall copy my default therapy that has helped hundreds of patients to overcome this disease for which doctors usually prescribe PPI (Proton Pump Inhibitor) drugs which are dangerous and can cause many other more serious problem when used in the long term.

          You will hopefully discover that my therapy aka “Joepathy” will help you within 24 hours after you have taken your first dose after a meal.

          The remedies you will order are as follows:

          Nat Phos 6x dose 2-4 tablets taken immediately after each of 3 meals.
          This remedy accelerates the passage of food down the gut and prevents the formation of acid which would otherwise reflux causing GERD.

          Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily.
          This remedy works to repair the damaged Esophagus which has metastasised to resemble the gut to deal with the Hcl refluxed into it causing severe distress. Arnica works with the Nat Phos to speedily cure the problem.

          You can also take a PROBIOTIC like Bifilac daily. A Probiotic will help by changing the balance of the Bacteria in the gut and will contribute to your cure and help to ensure that your problem does not recur. After your problem with GERD is stabilised you can take the Arnica in the Wet dose nightly before bed and the Probiotic daily for life. You do not need to take Nat Phos daily but you will keep a stock to be used whenever you feel uncomfortable after a meal when you will take 2-3 tablets as necessary.

          Please observe the following simple rules:

          Do not eat large meals. Eat small meals but more often if you feel hungry. Do not drink more that a few sips of water after your meals. This is to prevent the further dilution of your gastric juice which can then reflux into your Esophagus which results in GERD.

          It is important that you do not go to bed for at least 2 hours after dinner as food will take about this time to digest and it is best to stay awake and upright to enable your food to digest before going to bed.

          No fatty food, alcohol, coffee, preserved meats like sausages, ham, bacon as they contain Saltpeter which will antidote the remedies listed immediately.

          If you suffer from a stomach ache or you feel your stomach puffing up before a meal during the day between meals, this is usually due to hunger pains, caused by your gastric juices attacking the inner lining and the wall of your stomach. The simple remedy is to eat some food like a biscuit or a banana between meals to keep the gastric juice away from digesting the stomach wall which results in a stomach ache which in some cases can be acute.

          You must drink at least 3 liters of liquids, preferably water daily and you must also exercise for at least half hour daily. It is important to sweat it out as this is all part of my therapy to overcome GERD.

          The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

          Order the remedy in a 5ml Liquid Alcohol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
          Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
          Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
          Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
          Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done every time before sipping a capful of the bottle twice daily.

          It is understood that the patient will stop all other drugs which s/he may be taking for this ailment.
          Do not use Coffee, Cola beverages, preserved foods like sausages, ham and bacon as they contain Saltpeter.

    Hi I would lie to start your protocol for GERD using Nat Phos. I will take it myself as well as give it to baby. My baby is 7 weeks old and has silent reflux. I was hoping to find out when should the Nat phos be stopped. Is it once the symptoms stop or at a certain age? Please share that information.

    • Joe says:

      It is strange that 2 mothers one from Sydney and the other from New York have consulted me about Nat Phos 6x for their baby’s GERD and both have inquired when they should stop using it, even before they started to give it to their babies!

      The short answer is to start on the NP6x and use their discretion when to stop, which will depend of course from their baby’s individual response.

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

    Hello Dr. Delivera-
    First and foremost, thank you for all the information you so readily give to help infants.
    I have a 3 month old who has been on prevacid at 7 weeks old for reflux. She also had a tongue and lip tie which contributed to her aerophagia significantly. Since revision, about 4 weeks her nursing is vastly improved, no more spitting up; however we have a constant congested nose, coughing after feeds, and very gassy especially in the am. Her reflux gets significantly worse with her gas and am constipation. I feel like weaning her off her prevacid is the next best step. I have read your GERD therapy and want to give this to her as treatment if you suggest it will benefit her. Do I wean her prevacid by half weekly, then start your therapy? Or should I stop meds and start your therapy?
    thank you,
    Ashleigh

    • Joe says:

      Glad to note that you have read my therapy aka “Joepathy” and have decided to use it for your 3 month old who has been on Prevacid and is fortunate that you now intend using my therapy which is absolutely safe, unlike the dangerous PPI drugs commonly prescribed by peds who are aware of the danger of using them but refuse to use my therapy with Nat Phos 6x which is the Ultimate for Baby GERD.

      You will observe that baby will respond in just 2 feeds to my therapy when all her problems will cease and you will of course STOP the drug immediately. I would appreciate if you will please report baby’s response in 48 hours after commencing on my therapy.

    Mr. De Livera,

    I came across your this website when I was looking for blogs on Natrum Phos 6x. I used to practice homeopathy long back and then moved to US where I started working in a different field. I delivered a baby boy this Jan, 2016. He was born 6lbs 14oz and 21 inches long. He did have neonatal jaundice that cleared in the first week itself. However to get his bilirubin levels low doctors suggested supplementing formula over breastmilk. This impacted my breast milk supply. I still tried breastfeeding him as much as possible and was doing that till almost 2 months. During the first two months my son was gaining fine but I could feel that he has issues feeding as he will try swallowing really fast and will get full very soon. He would scream during feedings. The pediatrician suspected silent reflux and so did I. He had lots of burps and loud ones. I made sure that he was burped after every 1-2oz and kept him upright for at least 30 min after feeding. After 2 month vaccination, feeding got impacted even more. I would struggle to get 14oz in his body to keep him hydrated. Finally doctor put him on lactose sensitive formula. That did help with his consumption of ounces. He started taking 24 oz with less episodes of screaming but there was absolutely no weight gain for at least three weeks. At that point doctor prescribed Zantac 1.5ml twice daily. That worked as a wonder. My son started drinking 30-32 oz and gained good one pound in 2 weeks. He then got his 4th month vaccination and 2 days later his feeding again got impacted. Doctor also asked us to introduce solids (rice cereal followed by veggie puree and then fruits). We started with rice cereal but it felt his tummy did not take it well so I stopped within three days. He also fell sick (low grade fever and episode of projectile vomiting) and again with no weight gain even when he was still consuming 26-28 oz formula. At this point I was worried so doctor did some blood tests including CBC, Chemical Profile, Thyroid, stool test. Everything came back normal except slight increase in platelet count and elevated ALT and AST enzymes. This definitely worries me. It can be due to the acute viral illness he had but as a mother I am so worried now. Doctor asked to increase Zantac to 1.7ml twice a day and to put him on soy formula. She also said to rerun tests in two weeks (which will we on June 15). However then I decided to give a try to homeopathic medicines. I started thinking of medicines I used in my practice and the first medicine that came to mind was Nat Phos 6x and then I found your blog so I thought to give it a try. I gave my son Nat Phos 6x twice a day (one tablet each) after feed. I cut down Zantac to one dose of 1.5ml only (I am trying to taper him off completely). It has been 5 days since I reduced Zantac and introduced Nat Phos 6x. It seems like it is working. He has been drinking fine and seems to have gained couple of ounces. Whats should my next step be? Another senior of mine suggested Aethusa Cynapium 30 (in morning) and Ant crud 30 (in evenings) for 10 days for his lactose intolerance. I did not start as yet. Some other things that I have noted are that his poop varies a lot (esp after vaccination). Even at 4 months he poops 4-5 times (sometimes during the feed and others times about 30-45 min after the feed). Consistency is sometimes very runny. Before vaccination he used to poop twice daily with a good consistency. He is drooling a lot as well so I am suspecting teething as well. Also started solids (pureed veg and fruits like sweet potatoes, carrots, bananas, peaches, peas). One box is 2.5oz which I give him over a period of three days (within 48 hrs) just to get him started with solids. He is a happy boy, all smiles and very alert. He is going to be 5 months on June 14th. As of now he weighs 13 lbs 4 oz (which is less I believe). He can roll over both sides, tummy to back and back to tummy as well), has been hitting social milestones as well. What do you think in your experience this elevated liver enzyme could indicate? Also should I continue Nat phos 6x? and/or add any other medication to it. Do you think Thuja can be given due to vaccination issue?

    Thank you very much!

      I would appreciate if you would be brief in any future reports you many make, as it took me some while to read all your reports pertaining to your son’s GERD. I am not a professional Homeopath and do not subscribe to the tenets of ‘classical homeopathy’ as I have proved in 40 years of dedicated limited practice that my own therapy which was once derisively classified as “Joepathy” by a team of classical homeopaths after they discovered in 4 Homeopathic Forums I used to visit for the last 11 years till I established my own Website, that their own patients who were being treated by them with the classical protocol, switched over to my therapy which they had been roundly criticizing for some years as not being Homeopathy, were CURED of their ailments in a short time.

      Since you are Homeopath yourself, you may like to read the trauma I suffered for some years on the many Forums which I have copied on my Website under “The evolution of Joepathy”. I may mention here that I am NOT a professional Homeopath although I have studied this Science for over 40 years and which I practice in my own manner that yields results. It appears to have attracted some attention in Homeopathic circles worldwide as my Joepathy, using standard Homeopathic remedies, seems to CURE ailments more quickly than the standard classical protocol.

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

        Dear Dr De Livera,

        Thank you very much for your reply and your patience with my rather lengthy ramblings. I guess my worry for my son due to his elevated ALT, AST and Platelet count has made me a bit disoriented and therfore the lengthy post. Apologies for that. I will definitely read “the evolution of Joepathy” . Regrding Nat phos 6x I am giving that to my son since last 5 days and it seems to help with his GERD. But his stools frequency and consistency has not changed.

          Have you given the NP6x in halves, before and after every feed?

          • Rekha Anand says:

            Dear Dr,

            No I was giving one tablet after feeding. After I saw your reply I started giving half tablet before and half after feeding. Also my son is on lactose free formula. I do not produce any milk any more so I doubt I should be taking any Nat Phos 6x. Regarding vaccination it is tough to wait till 2 yrs as both my husband and I work and my son is in daycare where they mandate vaccination and need records (Nanny is not an option as we live in city and work in suburbs so do not want to leave baby with a nanny unless we find someone we can really trust) That is why I was thinking of Thuja 30 for bad effects of vaccination or do you have any suggestions?

              Arnica 6c in the Wet dose taken tds will increase your lactation as long as you are breast feeding your baby. Since you have stopped, I do not know if it will help but there is no harm in trying it.

              I appreciate your problem about vaccinating your baby but remember my advice NOT to give the MMR in one shot as it is known to affect the brain. Give it after 2 years in 3 separate shots.

              Thuja is just a waste of time after a vaccination.
              You just cannot undo a wrong after it is done and that, deliberately.

              • Rekha Anand says:

                Thank you very much Dr for your response. I will start taking Arnica 6c and eliminate dairy from my diet-definitely no harm in trying! I believe Arnica will help with hair loss as well. I have started shedding enormous amounts of hair since last month and was thinking of taking a wet dose and applying Arnica Q but never got the time!

                I will keep your advice in mind about MMR vaccination.

                  Dear Dr. De Livera,

                  I thought you might be interested in knowing update. My son’s reflux is almost gone. As suggested took the dose divided in half (before and after the feedings). tapered him off from zantac long back and now also tapered him off from nat phos. Once in a while I still give him one dose. However I still am struggling with his weight gain. He is 6 month and 12 days old. He consumes 30-32 oz milk and 2 times solids. He was 15 lbs 5 oz at his 6 month. He put on only an oz in 12 days. Is there anything I can do to help? He is super skinny. His liver enzymes came back normal so that’s a relief. One other thing I noticed is that his eyes seem slightly misaligned (not all the times)..anything to improve that. As always much appreciated. Thanks, Rekha

                  • Joe says:

                    I note that you have not studied the therapy I have prescribed for Baby GERD as I have recommended solids for a baby to be given after 8 months. You are fortunate that your baby tolerated solids at 6 months but your fear of a lack of weight gain will be helped by giving baby more milk in preference to solids which do not substitute for mother’s milk.

                    Some babies are born with Lazy Eyes where they seem to be slightly askew with even a noticeable squint but this condition usually corrects itself in a few months or even years. Your observation that “his eyes seem slightly misaligned (not all the times)” indicates that the Squint is already being corrected.

    Dr. Delivera,

    My son is almost 5 weeks old and I believe he is suffering from Silent Reflux or something similar. He has been exclusively breastfed and four months ago I removed all dairy, soy and wheat from my diet. About a week ago I noticed more often that while he was sleeping he would make motions with his mouth as though he just had refluxed. Many times this would result in crying.

    Overall, he has a strong temperament and does cry often to get our attention. This may be because he is hungry, tired, or needing a burp. I am guessing that this crying adds to problems, as he takes in a lot of air.

    I read about the therapy the other day and yesterday we began with the Nat Phos 6x. I gave him a half pill before and after six different feedings. I have also been taking two pills three times a day. I know it has only been just over 24 hours, but I am not seeing any improvements and have some questions.

    First, I have been placing the half pill under his tongue both before and after feeding. I only do this during the day, so he is awake and I can ensure that it is dissolving. Is it okay that I do all six doses during the day and none during the night feedings? Also, is it still just as effective to give him the pill vs. diluting it in breastmilk first?

    Second, I know the importance of burping and can tell a difference when he is well burped. With that being said, it is very difficult to get a good burp from him. He is often moving so much that it is difficult to get him in a good burping position. In addition, he just cries and cries when needing to burp that it causes him to need to burp again and again. Do you have any tips on getting a squirming baby to burp?

    I have been experimenting with feedings for him. Often times he appears still hungry after feeding him from one breast. I attempt to burp him and then many times he will eat from the second breast. Unfortunately, he loves to suck and I fear he is overeating for his reflux, because he won’t stop. How many ounces do you recommend at each feeding for his age?

    Today I have noticed that he has spit up more than usual and he has been very uncomfortable napping. It appears to me that his reflux has gotten worse over the last 24 hours. How many doses should it take for me to begin noticing that the treatment is working? Is there anything else I should do?

    Thank you in advance for your help!

        Dr. Delivera,

        Thank you for your initial response. My son has now been on the Nat Phos 6x therapy for 72 hours. I would say that his reflux has improved by about 50%. There are times when his reflux causes him discomfort, especially when sleeping. I have noticed his poops are still a little green in color and now a little more runny/mucusy. Is that a normal side effect of the Nat Phos 6x? Should I continue with this same therapy or is there another remedy I should add?

        Thank you,
        Amy

    Dear Dr. De Livera,

    I wrote a message sometime in the noon today but I do not see that here anymore. Can you please confirm if you receievd it? I will be very grateful if you could please help me with my son’s health just like you have helped so many others.

    Greatly appreciated,

    Dr. De Livera-
    My daughter has started on joepathy for her reflux and it has been 48 hours. I stopped the Prevacid immediately once commencing her on Nat
    phos 6x. I have been following your regimen and am happy to report improvements already.
    Instead of having a bm once or twice with great grunting and pushing she has had about 7 bms with decreasing effort. We are still having gas in the early am that is troubling her. We have had a few wet burps, more frequent hiccups then we have had in a while being on the Prevacid, but they do not bother her. Her nasal congestion and her coughing/choking has decreased in number of episodes.
    I am very grateful to have had the pleasure of discovering your Joepathy and I am looking forward to continued improvement in my daughter. We know this is the Lord’s answer to our prayers as our whole family has been fervently praying for comfort for our little girl. Thank you for your courage and discipline to your therapies which have helped countless individuals and have also restored hope.

    many blessings-
    Ashleigh

      Thank you for reporting your baby’s response to my Joepathy in 48 hours as requested by me in my last post where I made bold to state:

      “You will observe that baby will respond in just 2 feeds to my therapy when all her problems will cease and you will of course STOP the drug immediately. I would appreciate if you will please report baby’s response in 48 hours after commencing on my therapy.”

      I do wonder how many other physicians would have dared to prophesy the outcome of any therapy, especially one prescribed for a 3 month old, and I am happy that mine did in the same manner that so many babies had done in the past. I am confident that her progress will continue into the future when she will hopefully be able to stop her dependence on my therapy when her own digestive system takes over.

      Thank you again for reporting her response as requested by me in 48 hours.

      I do not know if you are aware that I am 86 years old and am not a qualified classically trained Homeopath. I am however dedicated to Homeopathy and am living evidence of the efficacy of this Science which I have studied and decided after some years of limited selective practice that the classical Homeopathic protocol generally used today was not as effective as my own therapy aka “Joepathy”, where I use standard Homeopathic remedies available throughout the world in a manner that CURES the ailment far more effectively than the Classical protocol does.

      If you wish to know more about my therapy you can do a search on my Home page under “The Evolution of Joepathy”.

  264. Ashleigh says:

    Dr De Livera-
    I am happy to report that my daughter’s reflux symptoms are gone! She still has gas in the early am hours, but I think time will help that as her digestive system matures. Thank you for sharing your Joepathy so freely, I can’t begin to tell you how many nights I’ve prayed for even a little relief for my little one. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
    I am a fan of anyone who colors outside the lines as you have with your evolution of Joepathy. You truly make the world a brighter, more colorful place! I think you are amazing for practicing so thoroughly and tirelessly at your young age :). Keep on shining!
    One last question, what is the best way to stop the Nat Phos 6x?, do I wean her off slowly?
    thank you so much

      It is very rarely that a patient confirms that my Joepathy has helped to CURE Baby GERD, a problem that seems to affect over 50% of babies worldwide. You first consulted me on June 7 and today just 5 days into my therapy, you report:
      “I am happy to report that my daughter’s reflux symptoms are gone! ”

      Thank you for giving me this news and you may like to know that it is just the satisfaction I get from reports like yours from patients that keeps me active at my advanced age of almost 87 years to continue the good work on my Website which is open to the world.

      You also stated:
      “I am a fan of anyone who colors outside the lines as you have with your evolution of Joepathy.”

      I hope you have done a search on my Home page under “The evolution of Joepathy”. This will open your eyes to the power of Homeopathy to CURE disease provided that one uses the remedies available in the manner that I have done which I have proved is far more effective in curing human suffering.

      It seems such a shame that the medical lobby fostered by Big Pharma, refuses to accept that over 50% of human disease can be cured by Homeopathy and doctors here in Sri Lanka refuse to use my therapy to CURE Dengue which has claimed so many hundreds of lives during the past 10 years after the epidemic of Chikun Gunya which disease too I was able to cure in hundreds of cases in Sri Lanka.

      Answering your question about stopping NP for baby, you can do so whenever you wish to enable baby’s own digestive system to take over. You can evaluate if baby is fully capable of doing so by observing how she responds without it. I believe that I have emphasized to you that NP is NOT a drug and is absolutely safe in use for both babies and adults for GERD and it also reduces weight by 1kg in obese adults very safely per week.

      I have shared my ‘discoveries’ with the world and it is in the hands of patients who have benefitted from my research to share their joy of weaning innocent babies from the standard drugs of the PPI group prescribed by doctors, which are ruled to be dangerous for adults, and more so for babies.

  265. Curtis says:

    Dr. De Livera,

    My boy was born early at 27 weeks and was just released from the NICU at 37 weeks. The doctors started him on a prilosec and zantac combo early on and now He is currently on two a day doses of Zantac for his reflux. I know that a large percentage of preemies have reflux starting out and they eventually grow out of it but I would much rather get away from this PPI. Also As we have been trying to see what method of feeding/positioning best suits him to keep him from spitting up the least, I have noticed that he seems to spit up the most after we feed him with his dose of Zantac. I guess my main question is it alright to use Nat Phos 6x at this early age and if so at what dose? Thank you.

    • Joe says:

      You will observe that Nat Phos 6x will fix his Baby GERD problem in under 24 hours and will replace the dangerous PPI drugs you were prescribed far more safely and effectively.

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
      Do not give the MMR Vaccine in One shot as there is plenty of evidence on the Web of severe side effects which can result. You are advised to give it in 3 separate shots if you must do so, after baby is 2 years old.

      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.

  266. Stephanie says:

    Hi Dr. De Livera,

    I’ve read many of the posts between you and your patients and was hoping to gather the info I needed that way so as not to add to your already-full plate of question answering. However, because of some of the variations between the default therapy of 2013 and beyond, I’d love some clarity on a few things, if you are able to respond at your convenience.

    Yesterday we started using the Nat Phos 6x remedy for my 6 week old daughter, who is experiencing painful reflux symptoms. I saw that we should not exceed six tablets in 24 hours, so since I am nursing her about 12 times a day (1.5-ish hours in the day & less at night), is it better to give 1 tablet every other feeding (half before and the balance after), or just do 1/2 tablet each time? If the latter, is it more beneficial for her to take that 1/2 before or following the feeding?

    Also, I am concerned about the potential for wight loss if I were to take the Nat Phos 6x. I have always been very thin, and now that I’m keeping up with two busy boys (ages 2 & 4) and nursing my newborn, I really can’t afford to drop any weight. I also read about your Arnica 30c recommendation for mothers in early posts but noticed it had been omitted from the default therapy in more recent updates. Guessing I should just stick with the Nat Phos 6x unless we see no results, in which case I can check back with you?

    Lastly, there are so many varying opinions about which foods a breastfeeding mother eats” that can cause distress for the baby.” Dairy seems to be the most universally mentioned (and I think has helped my baby spit up less violently since I’ve omitted it a week ago), but are there any other ones you had in mind when writing that?

    Thank you so much for your time and help. We appreciate your sharing your wealth of knowledge with countless concerned and searching parents who want to care for their babies well.

    Sincerely,
    Stephanie

    • Joe says:

      Glad to note that you have read my therapy but you must not use the therapy I prescribed some years ago as I have refined it based on patient’s reports to what I prescribe today copied below. You do not need Nat Phos yourself and stay away from Dairy which seems to irritate baby’s digestion. You may however benefit from Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily, as will baby through your milk.

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

        Dr. De Livera,

        I’m happy to report that after about 5 days, we’ve noticed some improvement as we’ve continued the doses every OTHER feeding (so as not to exceed 6 tablets in a day). Do you recommend that approach since I am nursing her about 12 times a day, or is it better to give her just 1/2 tablet with EACH feeding? If the latter, is it more beneficial for her to take that 1/2 before or following eating?

        Also some of these applications are new for me. So to clarify: I will purchase Arnica 30c Liquid Dilution (not tablets) and follow the instructions I noticed about the Arnica 30c posted in one of the other comments? This:

        “The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
        Order the remedy in a 5ml Liquid Alcohol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
        Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
        Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
        Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
        Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done every time before sipping a capful of the bottle twice daily.”

        I was able to easily find the Nat Phos 6x at my local health food store but am having a harder time with the Arnica 30c. Any reputable online ordering suggestions?

        Thank you again for your help! I will be sharing this info with friends who are experiencing similar struggles with their babies…

        Blessings,
        Stephanie

        • Joe says:

          If you find that baby is comfortable after limiting the dosage to just 6 tablets, it is best you try not to exceed the dosage.

          If otherwise, you can add Robinia Pseudacacia 6c in the Wet dose given twice daily as per my default instructions below:

          It seems to me that Baby is not responding to the Nat Phos 6x alone and it is time to add Robinia Pseudacacacia 6c in the Wet dose to reinforce its action by reducing the acid.

          You will make it as per instructions below and give half teaspoonful, twice daily.

          The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

          Get this remedy in the standard pellets and insert just 6 pellets into a 500ml bottle of Spring Water.
          Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
          Shake the bottle hard before you give baby half teaspoonful twice daily.

          You will stop the Robinia P as soon as you find that baby is OK but you will continue the Nat Phos for as long as you feel that it is needed. NP is NOT a drug and is absolutely safe in use for long periods.

          Report progress in 48 hours.

  267. Mia says:

    Thank you for the information you’ve provided regarding the Nat Phos 6x. I’ve been giving my 1 month old 1/2 tablet of the Nat Phos 6x after every feed, but she burbs and spits it right up after. And this is even after I’ve burbed her immediately after a feed. Is there any thing else you would recommend?

    • Joe says:

    Dr. De Livera,

    My son is 7 months old and has been having acid reflux since 3 months. In the past, we have been persevering through with no medication but last week he has been throwing up after he eats, constantly arching backwards, and his sleep is disrupted. The contents are very acidic. I came across your website because I do not want to use H2 blockers or ppi’s. I have ordered the Nat Phos 6x and will begin treatment this evening dissolving 1 tablet in milk (formula) and giving immediately after feed with burping. I’ll continue to comment on his progress.

    • Joe says:

    Dr. De Livera,

    It has been 24 hours since starting the Nat Phos 6x therapy using half a tablet before and remaining balance after the feed. During the day he seemed to do well. Did not throw up or seem uncomfortable. He had some coughing and back arching during the night and ended up throwing up 7 hours after he last ate (2am our time, last bottle 6pm). He is currently on formula. We will continue the therapy and report progress.

    • Joe says:

      Glad to learn that my therapy has helped baby.

      I note that he is on formula and would like to know why you opted for it in place of your own Breast Milk.

  270. Jen says:

    I tried to breastfeed. He had it for 3 months and supply dwindled after that. Supply initially came in but he had a hard time latching. I worked with lactation consultants but he did not get the latch every time with caused me to lose supply. Even tired pumping but that did not maintain it. I wished he could have 100 percent breastmilk. He did not have tongue tie.

  271. Alison says:

    My son is one month old. He has not been able to eat more than an ounce or two each feeding. Once he gets to two ounce he often chokes and gags. He arch his back and straightens his legs and arms. His body is alwas tense. He never sleeps restful as he is always waking screaming and arching his back. He cries through every bottle. He is a formula fed baby. He only eats about 16 ounces daily and hasnt gained a full half a pound since birth. He was a full term baby weighing 7 lbs 10ounces. I am contemplating having the doctor prescribe something so he can eat and sleep and be a healthy baby. What do you recommend for such a little baby?

    Dear Dr. De Livera,

    I found your website through Mama Natural blog and I would please ask for your help.

    Ouf 6 week old sin got diagnosed with reflux by a paed at the hospital two weeks ago (he was vomiting foam and mucus and was choking on it, we had an ambulance take us to hospital. They diagnosed reflux and larongomalaycia but offered no treatment for either.)

    The ENT specialist said he needs medication for reflux but the paediatrician said meds are not needed as he will most likely come right on his own when he’s a toddler.

    But – he constantly smells like vomit, brings up milk after every feed, screams and cries after every feed, has terrible wheezing sounds and difficult breathing after a feed, is gulping and swallowing after a feed trying to reclaim what’s come up, doesn’t sleep well and has awful gas which makes him cry. He coughs after a feed, has hiccups and arches his back a lot. It’s only getting worse.

    He had issues feeding in the first 3 weeks with us getting admitted to hospital as he had then lost too much weight. He had tongue tie release surgery to help with breastfeeding which has really helped with feeding so we are phasing out formula top ups now.

    His details:
    – 6 weeks old
    – 3.95 kg
    – no medication
    – breastfed with 1-2 formula top ups a day, which I am now reducing

    Me (mum)
    – 36 years old
    – taking motilium for milk supply, 2 tablets three times a day
    – taking Zoloft 25 mg per day

    My gp previously said what the paed said, he will grow out of it, but that will take so long and he struggles at every feed.

    Could you please help us?

    Thank you in advance.

    • Vanja says:

      I would like to add that two days ago he vomited a lot of yellow/orange bile.

      He won’t sleep in his cot, he only sleeps in my arms. He feeds small amounts frequently, 11-12 times a day.

      His mattress and pram are elevated. We burp at every feed and keep him upright after every feed.

      He sounds like he is struggling to breathe and we don’t know what to do.

      Thank you.

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

        Thank you kindly, I will do as you prescribed.

        May I ask – which foods to avoid? Dairy, wheat, gluten, eggs – any others that you recommend?

        • Joe says:

          I cannot help you about foods which you should not eat as you are the best person to figure that out on the basis of baby’s response.

        Dear Dr. De Livera,

        My son is doing better, thank you for your help. He slept twice as long last night, we got 2 X 2.5hr sleeps in his cot which was great. He also had times when he passed gas without crying which was great. He still had some gas pains and had some reflux, but today he smells less like vomit. Last night reflux did bother him and he cried for a while but it was less than the previous night.

        Should I continue on prescribed treatment for another day and see how we go?

        Thank you in advance.

        • Joe says:

          The remedy I have prescribed Nat Phos 6x must be given to him for a few weeks more as he will otherwise return back to square one. Nat Phos 6x is NOT a drug and is absolutely safe in use for babies. Google search for Nat Phos 6x Biochemic Cell Salt.

          • Vanja says:

            Of course, I meant shall I continue with Nat phos on its own or do you need to add anything as you mentioned the treatment may require altering if it is not initially completely successful. I will update you on his progress in the next 24 hrs as promised.

      • Vanja says:

        Dear Dr De Livera,

        My son is doing much better. He cries from gas only occasionally and isn’t a great sleeper but his other symptoms are greatly reduced.

    Dr. De Livera,

    I believe my 7 week old has acid reflex, or silent reflux. I haven’t been to the doctor, but he cries and screams a lot, hiccups, arches his back, and sometimes spits up a lot. He just seems uncomfortable when he is not sleeping or eating. I saw the Nat Phos 6x remedy on a different website and started giving him 1/2 tablet after he ate. We noticed a difference immediately, he was doing well for three days. Sadly it didn’t last, the past three days he has been even more upset. Screaming and crying when he is not eating or sleeping. Two days ago I started following your protocol and have been giving him 1/2 a tablet before the feed, and half after. I have cut out some food in my diet, he isn’t vaccinated, I burp him after eating, and I’m taking nat phos 6x.

    A few questions:

    1. Is it normal to see results for three days and then the baby gets worse? How long should I try nat phos 6x?
    2. All he wants to do is eat (I only breastfeed), which means he eats more than 6 times a day. You said not to exceed 6 tablets, what do I do? Is there such a thing as giving him too much breastmilk?
    3. What should I do?

    Thank you very much,

    Anna

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.
      Since you state that Baby is not responding to the Nat Phos 6x alone it is time to add Robinia Pseudacacia 30c in the Wet dose to reinforce its action.
      You will make it as per instructions below and give half teaspoonful, twice daily.

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Get Robinia P 30c in the standard pellets and insert just 6 pellets into a 500ml bottle of Spring Water.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Shake the bottle hard before you give baby half teaspoonful twice daily.

      You will stop the Robinia as soon as you find that baby is OK but you will continue the Nat Phos for as long as you feel that it is needed. Nat Phos is NOT a drug and is absolutely safe in use for long periods.

      Report progress in 48 hours.

  277. Amf says:

    Thank you. I need to order the Robinia because I cannot find it in the store where I live. It might take a week or two.

    Thank you

    • Joe says:

      You may use Nux Vomica 30c for the moment and give her the doses prescribed.
      You may mail-order the Robinia from

      USA

      Washington Homeopathic Products
      http://www.homeopathyworks.com
      1 800 336 1695

      You will however replace it with the Robinia as soon as it arrives which should be almost overnight from WHP, who are based in Washington DC.

      You may exceed the limit of 6 tablets up to 8 per day.

  278. Courtney says:

    Dr. DeLivera,

    I am hoping for your assistance with helping my daughter. She is 5 weeks old and weighed 6 lbs. 6 oz. at birth. She weighed 8 lbs. 3 oz. at her 1 month checkup so the doctor is not concerned with reflux since she is gaining good weight. However, I feel she is uncomfortable and feel compelled to figure out how to help her. I found your site when researching natural remedies for infant reflux.

    The first week or so home, she was spitting up a lot and very gassy and uncomfortable with mucousy stools so I immediately cut out all dairy (as my son and husband have a dairy protein allergy so I suspected she may) and added an infant probiotic (Klaire Labs their-biotic infant formula). It has definitely helped some – she is not spitting up as much anymore and is less colicky. However, there are still things that concern me and I think could be greatly improved. The symptoms that concern me are:

    – she will not sleep unless being held upright… If I lay her down she immediately wakes from choking/gagging or spitting up and then cries
    – congested sound in chest only during and after feeding
    – frequent hiccups and coughing
    – gasping and gulping noises as it sounds milk is coming back up her esophagus
    – whimpering/screeching and pulling on/off the breast and arching back
    – colicky from about 6-11pm unless she is nursing

    We make sure to burp her after every feed and keep her upright for 30min after eating. I have purchase the Nat Phos 6x and wanted to contact you for direction before we started. Any help you have to offer would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!!

    • Joe says:

      • Courtney says:

        Ok, thank you for your response. I will start with your recommendations first thing tomorrow morning as she is asleep for the night. She is not on any prescription meds, but is it ok to continue giving her the probiotics?

        • Joe says:

          Please read my prescription where I specified that you do not use any other medicines when on my therapy which has helped thousands of babies to overcome their reflux problems.

          • Courtney says:

            Yes, I did read that. I am trying to clarify if you consider probiotics to be a medicine/drug as I do not.

          • Courtney says:

            I know it has not been 48 hours, but I wanted to update. My daughter has had 3 feeds today and I’ve been doing 1/2 tablet dissolved in breastmilk before and directly after each feed. Each time, she has spit it right back up. It comes out curdled looking and I’m sure it’s because of the lactose in the tablets. I suspected she did not tolerate dairy and cut it out of my diet so that the milk proteins would not be in my breastmilk, but now I know for sure. I will order the liquid Nat Phos that does not contain the lactose and update you when it arrives. Thank you.

            • Joe says:

              Nat Phos 6x I have prescribed for Baby GERD is not the reason for baby refluxing the feed.
              It is more likely that she has an excess of Hcl acid in her stomach and you will get Robinia Pseudacacia 30c which you will give in the Wet dose twice daily to reduce the acid for a few days.

              The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

              Order the remedy in the Ethanol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.

              Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done at least 6 times before sipping a capful of the bottle as prescribed.

              The Liquid Nat Phos 6x is NOT the Biochemic Cell Salt and it will not help her. You must use the Hylands tablets as prescribed.

              • Courtney says:

                Ok I will check ourlocal health food store today for the Robinia Pseudacacia 30c. If they do not have it, I will order online but it says it will take a couple weeks to arrive.

                Last night baby slept fairly well until early this morning when she puked a couple of times and was gagging and choking on it. It was not like normal spit up as it was very stinky and thick white and chunky. She has not puked like this since 3 weeks ago before I cut dairy out of my diet. Since then she has only had silent reflux symptoms as mentioned above. So my question is ~ is it normal for these symptoms to become worse before they get better?

                • Joe says:

                  I cannot hazard a guess on how baby will respond tomorrow but it seems to me that baby is improving with the remedies prescribed judging from your report.

          • Courtney says:

            Do you recommend that I continue the tablets until the liquid form arrives? I feel that she is responding slightly already as she has been sleeping more comforably today. I’m just concerned that she is spitting up the tablets due to the lactose since her spitting up had stopped after I cut dairy out of my diet.

            • Joe says:

              You must be patient with baby as the Nat Phos 6x I have prescribed to perhaps thousands of babies is not an instant fix to Baby GERD. It is very safe in use unlike the dangerous drugs like Nexium prescribed by peds.

    Hello,

    She has silent reflux and was prescribed Zantac. Zantac really does help but I am looking for something natural to help with her silent reflux also the Zantac works great during the day but it seems that she has chronic acid reflux since I have been able to tell that Zantac works great during the day and she sleeps and eats okay but it is at night between 12:00am and 4:00sometimes even until 6:30am she is up with reflux symptoms and doesn’t really cry that’s how I know it’s not colic but she is very uncomfortable and won’t sleep.

    Hello, I am in desperate need for help with my sons severe acid reflux. He is 7 months old and weighs 14lbs. He was born 5 weeks early because I had severe preeclampsia. At a month old his doctor prescribed him Zantac, it only made things worse. Causing his reflux to come out of his nose. After dealing with that for 3 additional months I told his doctor we needed to switch his medicine because the Zantac was only making his reflux worse. She then switched us to Prevacid, a dissolvable tablet. It seemed as though it was working but around the second week of taking it his reflux started coming out his nose again. I told his doctor this and that I had done my research so I wanted to try him on Prilosec. She sent in a prescription for it. I later found out that it’s the exact same thing as the Prevacid. So I told her I wanted to switch him to nexium, she called in a prescribtion for that as well. So here we are at 7 months, now on both nexium and Prilosec and neither are working. We’ve been to see a specialist and all she said was that he’s going to have to grow out of it, and have an appointment to see another later today. As a mother I just can’t accept that as an answer. My son is just being to gain weight. I’ve switched his formula 5 times, the 5th is the one he’s on now a medicated formula called neocate. I honestly don’t know what else to do. Please help me give my son some relief. Oh, his symptoms are: gagging, sour smelling vomit, arching back, coughing, refusing his bottle at times, waking up screaming in the middle of the night, having a hard time gaining weight because of throwing the whole bottle up or refusing to drink it, I can hear the reflux when it comes up and he’ll start swallowing a lot, throwing up constantly. He went from drink 5-6 oz back down to. 4oz every two hours. He’s also been sleeping propped up since he was about a month old. Everytime I mention his weight to a doctor they all say “oh, he’s weight is fine since he came early.” Something inside me just can’t accept that.

    Please help,
    Kristia

      “I am in desperate need for help with my sons severe acid reflux.”

      Having read your baby’s story I agree with you that he is indeed a desperate case which was badly mismanaged by a succession of pediatricians. What is more is that you must consider yourself as being very fortunate that you located my Website as you can read the many hundreds of cases some even more desperate than yours which I have CURED with my therapy aka “Joepathy”. It was derisively dubbed by that term as I use and prescribe standard Homeopathic remedies in a non classical manner which cures instead of following the strict classical rules which invariably do not help the patient.

      You may like to know that I am almost 87 years in age and do still drive in Colombo, Sri Lanka and have survived so far as I do not take any drugs whatsoever and only take Arnica nightly as a tonic and have done so for 21 years.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.

      I shall also ADD Robinia Pseudacacia 30c to help reduce the Hcl acid in baby’s stomach which all the drugs you were prescribed have not succeeded in doing and which I am confident my therapy will succeed in doing in a few days, perhaps even hours. I shall expect you to report his response in 48 hours.

      It seems to me that Baby is not responding to the Nat Phos 6x alone and it is time to add Robinia Pseudacacia 30c in the Wet dose to reinforce its action. This remedy will reduce the Hcl acid flow in baby’s stomach and works in a similar manner to the standard PPI drugs like Nexium which are usually prescribed by doctors even though they are aware that they are dangerous.

      You will make it as per instructions below and give a teaspoonful, twice daily.

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Get Robinia P 30c in the standard pellets and insert just 6 pellets into a 500ml bottle of Spring Water.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Shake the bottle hard before you give baby half teaspoonful twice daily.

      You will stop the Robinia as soon as you find that baby is OK but you will continue the Nat Phos for as long as you feel that it is needed. Nat Phos is NOT a drug and is absolutely safe in use for long periods.

      Report progress in 48 hours.

        Is it safe to give him the nat phos if it has lactose as an active ingredient ? He has milk allergy and soy allergy. And where can I order both of the remedies?

      • Kristia says:

        I will not be able to report progress in 48 hours because the remedies will not have arrived yet.

      • Kristia says:

        Hello Dr.,
        We just received the Nat Phos 6x. I have given my son half a pill after his second feeding, it hadn’t arrived when he had his first. I will give him one half a few before and directly after his next 5 feedings. I’ll keep you updated. But will his reflux get worse during the first day of the remedy ??

        • Joe says:

          Please follow my instructions on giving baby half tablet dissolved in water or milk BEFORE a feed and the balance half immediately AFTER a feed.

          His reflux will not get any worse if you follow my instructions.

          • Kristia says:

            Hello Dr.,

            We started giving my son the Nat Phos 6x 2 days ago, his reflux became worse immediately after taking it and has been as if he is not taking anything for reflux. We received the robinia P 30c yesterday evening and he received his first dosage last night, we didn’t see any change during the night as he still wasn’t able to sleep soundly. He was just given the second dosage 20 mins AFTER feeding and giving him the the balance of the Nat Phos. How long will it be before we notice a change in his reflux with the combination of the Nat Phos and the Robinia Psuedo.?

            • Kristia says:

              Dr. Joe??!

                • Kristia says:

                  The treatment doesn’t seem to be working.

                  • Kristia says:

                    I read in a post from last year that you told a mom no to give her baby infant cereal. We add cereal to each of my sons bottles, do you think this is the cause of the treatment not working??! He gags/dry heeves each time we give him the nat Phos and the robinia p, and soon after spits up sour smelling milk. His acid reflux is the same. Last night we he threw up it was thick, the consistency of the infant cereal. Please help, Dr.
                    You’re our last hope.

                    • Joe says:

                      HERE IS THE ANSWER TO YOUR BABY’S PROBLEM WITH REFLUX:
                      “I read in a post from last year that you told a mom no to give her baby infant cereal. We add cereal to each of my sons bottles, do you think this is the cause of the treatment not working??!”

                      I hope you understand that I cannot possibly supervise what the mother does by way of following the therapy I have prescribed. I have already stated:

                      “Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.”

                      You have obviously not followed my instructions and your baby has paid for your not doing so by vomiting the milk and the cereal all these months.

                      Your baby is a preemie and arrived 5 weeks early. At this tender age there is no way that his digestion can process CEREAL

                      If you had not made your post today, I would have been compelled to stop treating your baby.

  285. Kristia says:

    Also my son has milk and soy allergy. Well his doctor didn’t run any test to confirm the allergies, we just went by his reactions to the formulas we tried. The formulas that were milk based caused him to get colic and the baby cereal with soy as well as the soy based formula he would just throw up the whole bottle. Also, I breastfed him for the for 2 months and then my supply dried up. I also put a little baby cereal in his formula bottles, I was told that it could help with his acid reflux and make the milk heavier and keep it down. It hasn’t but I still continu to do so with every bottle.

    • Kristia says:

      I assume you overlooked when I asked you about the infant cereal in the above post, which is why my husband and myself were still adding cereal to his bottles. I’m not asking you to supervise my every move, I just need complete directions from you, Dr. Thank you again for everything.

      • Joe says:

        I did not notice your question but you will observe that I had already pre-empted it in my original prescription where I had clearly indicated “Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.”

        This is presuming that baby was born at 40 weeks. In your baby’s case he was born a Preemie and his digestive system needs still more time to adjust to food.

        This is not a question of “I’m not asking you to supervise my every move, I just need complete directions from you,”

        You need to READ AND FOLLOW my clear instructions on helping your baby to get over his GERD which was causing you, the parents, and me the physician, so much unnecessary distress in curing.

        The least I can expect from you is an apology that you caused me at my advanced age of 87, so much anxiety on trying to ascertain what went wrong in my therapy which you can read on my Website has helped over a THOUSAND babies up to today.

  286. PATTY says:

    Dear Dr. Delivera:

    My baby girl is 2 months old and have both reflux and silent reflux. She is fussy during or after feeding, crying or uncomfortable after eating, but not each time. She arches back after eating with her legs moving upside and down. she have hiccups wet burps and sometime has projectile vomiting. she gagged or chocked when feeding or just by herself. And sometimes we can hear the sound that something coming to her throat when she just swollen again. I have done everything i can. Holding her in my arm keeping upright, burping her at least 30 mins after each feeding. Feed her more frequently with only one side. She is exclusive breastfeeding. But she is still have such pain from time to time. Since she has not vomited each meal or everyday, she still get weight. But when it happens, it’s really painful for her and it’s hurting us too. The doctor prescribed PREVACID. If there is anything we can try first than the meds, I hope to give a try. So I have read lots of post here and hope it can also works with my baby girl. I have ordered NAT PHOS 6X frome internet, and would like to have you advice before use it. Only one question,since i feed her around 10times a day, is that OK i just give her half tablet per feeding in order not exceeding 6 tables a day?

    • Joe says:

      I presume that you have already read my prescription for Baby GERD but I shall repeat it below:

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
      Do not give the MMR Vaccine in One shot as there is plenty of evidence on the Web of severe side effects which can result. You are advised to give it in 3 separate shots if you must do so, after baby is 2 years old.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.

      You may give more than 6 tablets but keep it below 8 as she is just 2 months old.

    Hi,

    My baby is 5 weeks old, she has been suffering from silent reflux since 2 weeks old. I am giving her breast milk only. I stopped the nexium 2.5mg packets the doctor prescribed and the malanga root in her milk. I received the pills today & will begin giving them to her as you state on your website (1/2 before & 1/2 after up to 6 a day) I have also stopped eating all dairy. I will report back with her progress in a few days.

    • Joe says:

      You are very fortunate that you located my Website and have discovered my therapy aka “Joepathy” to help infants to digest Mother’s Milk.

      Whatever you do please do NOT give baby any nexium as it will cause untold harm.

    * Also my baby feeds every 3/4 hours so anywhere from 6-8 times a day. Do I skip 1-2 bottles with no pill or do I give up to 8 in a day? (She is 5 weeks old)

    Thank you!

    • Joe says:

      You may give baby 8 tablets in halves if you are satisfied that Nat Phos 6x helped her as it is far better to ensure that baby does not reflux the feed and digests it.

      Nat Phos 6x is NOT a drug and is absolutely safe in use. (Check Google)

      • Kelly Montes says:

        Hello,

    Hi Doctor,

    I have a 5 week old baby girl suffering from acid reflux from the second week. After conducting much research i’ve found that this ‘Nat Phos 6x’ looks like the best option.
    Up until now we have not given her any conventional drug.

    Please could you guide us in giving this medicine to correctly.

    She feeds every 2-4 hours a day. Strictly breastfed.
    How many times a day should i give it to her?
    How do i give her the dose? As i am breastfeeding, how would i give it to her (I was reading that the tablet can be halved and but underneath the tongue and it would melt. Is that okay?)
    Also how many times a day would you recommend?

    Thank you.

    I apologise in advance as i know you have probably answered this question a thousand times.

    • Joe says:

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too. I have the prescription on my computer and if you have any questions after reading it, feel free to ask.

        • Joe says:

          It is best not to place the half tablet under her tongue as there is a slight chance that it may not dissolve fully before she swallows it and even if it does, it may not go down smoothly.

          You can dissolve it in some of your milk or in water. She may prefer the milk as water is not usually welcomed by a baby till she is a few months older.

            We’ve started her on the medication from last night.

            First response after 5 doses was she vomited after 3 out of the 5 doses.
            Guessing that is normal.

    • Joe says:

      Your baby seems to have suffered from Baby GERD since she was 2 weeks old and it it a pity that you located my Website only yesterday as I could have saved her from the distress that she and you the mother would have suffered from so unnecessarily.

      The drug you mentioned “we had to give her Lossek which she gets till now.”
      This drug is Omeprazole and would have caused baby so much distress which I could have save her from. It is a PPI drug and you can do a search on Google under: “The danger of PPI drugs” for further information.

      You will STOP this drug and replace it with Nat Phos 6x. Please note that Nat Phos 6 is NOT the equivlent of Nat Phos 6x.
      “we use nat phose 6 which we got from the us but the regression has arrived in the last 3 days especially at night.”
      Nat Phos 6x is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is absolutely safe in use for babies and adults even when used in the long term.

      You will order this remedy from the US with Robinia Pseudacacia 30c in the Alcohol pack. The second remedy must be given to baby twice daily in the Wet dose made as per instructions below:

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Order the remedy in the Ethanol / Alcohol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
      Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
      Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done at least 6 times before sipping a capful of the bottle as prescribed.

      You will please confirm if you have already got the Nat Phos 6x in TABLET form and if not you can mail order it from:

    Hi sir,
    My 45 days old baby girl is suffering from acid reflux. The symptoms of acid reflux came up when she was 10-15 days old . Since then they increased, she could possibly vomit every time after a feed, but I elevated her, held her for 30 mins after a feed and also make her sleep on an elevated platform so as to avoid vomit. I could avoid her vomitting this way but the problem is not gone, when make to sleep straight she makes acid gulping noise, also makes noise as if she is suffocated .which makes me pick her up in arms. I follow this practice for the whole day, I can barely leave her on a flat surface.
    after reading about Nat phos 6x , I started giving her that, I could notice a very slight effect on her, that I felt she became a bit comfortable than before . I have read your post today itself, before that I was giving her 1 tab 3 times a day in my breastmilk. I have given it for 5 days already, but the problem still exists very much visibly. I would follow your prescribed way from tomorrow but I would like to know somethings.
    Sir, looking at her symptoms do you suggest nux vomica or should I first change the method ?
    Also, if Nat phos can reduce my weight of 1 kg in a week, would it also effect the weight of my baby?
    Sir, I have given her Nat phosphate for 5 days .. how long can I give this to my baby at a stretch? Should I take any halt in between?

    Thanks

      Glad to note that you have given baby Nat Phos 6x for 5 days
      ” I have read your post today itself, before that I was giving her 1 tab 3 times a day in my breastmilk. I have given it for 5 days already, but the problem still exists very much visibly.”

      Nat Phos is NOT a drug. It is a Biochemic Cell Salt (Google). It is safe in use as long as you do not exceed 6 tablets per day.

      It will reduce the weight of OBESE adults but it has not been reported to reduce the weight of the hundreds of babies who have benefitted by using it.

      I am confident that if you follow my therapy outlined below that your baby will be OK.

        Sir, as I stated earlier that I gave natphos 6x to my 45 days old for 5 days, now I changed the method to urs from the past 2 days, the slight change that I noticed 2 days back is the same, it did not improve after changing the dose to half before and after feed. I still notice that my baby is very uncomfortable after feeds, I can hear gulping sounds after every feed, she gets really uncomfortable and when made to lye down she wakes up within sometime and make these wet sounds from her throat which makes me pick her up and soothe her for sometime. I can not put her on flat surface. Should I wait more and keep giving her nat phos6x. How many days can it taketo completely eliminate the problem of reflux.

          I shall copy my default therapy for babies who are OLDER than your 45 day old baby daughter. If you feel that the NP6x alone is not working, you can give her a dose twice daily.

          A dose is just 10 DROPS which must not be increased without consulting me.

          It seems to me that Baby is not responding to the Nat Phos 6x alone and it is time to add Robinia Pseudacacia 30c in the Wet dose to reinforce its action. This remedy will reduce the Hcl acid flow in baby’s stomach and works in a similar manner to the standard PPI drugs like Nexium which are usually prescribed by doctors even though they are aware that they are dangerous.

          The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

          Get Robinia P 30c in the standard pellets and insert just 3 pellets into a 500ml bottle of Spring Water.
          Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
          Shake the bottle hard before you give baby half teaspoonful twice daily.

          You will stop the Robinia as soon as you find that baby is OK but you will continue the Nat Phos for as long as you feel that it is needed. Nat Phos is NOT a drug and is absolutely safe in use for long periods.

          Report progress in 48 hours.

            Sir, I couldn’t get rp30 in my nearby store. So I had to wait for 2 days to get it.mmeanwhile I again changed the method of giving natphos to my baby. I have her 1 natphos dissolved in my breastmilk 5 min before feeding and nothing after the feed. I found a noticeable change in her condition. However I still exercise caution of elevating her but I can notice that shows less signs of reflux now.. I have also reduced the dose to 3 times a day. Meanwhile I will also mention that she got her dose of dpt vaccination as the doc presecribed as mandatory on the due date.

            • Joe says:

              I do not recommend that a baby is given a tablet of Nat Phos but I note that your baby seems to have improved with this higher dosage.
              I shall await her response in a week on the single tablet given thrice daily.

              Vaccinating a baby who is just a few weeks old is totally uncalled for as the chances of her contacting Diphtheria Pertussis (Whooping cough) and Tetanus are ZERO.

              You do not need to heed the advice of your doctor and you can quote me if necessary.

              If and when you do give baby the so called MMR for Measles, Mumps and Rubella please ensure that they are given individually in 3 separate shots and NOT together as there are many records of the child’s brain being affected (Google for The danger of MMR vaccine)

              • Garima says:

                Sir, I would like to know if 1 dose of natphos given before feed can have any adverse effect?.

                • Joe says:

                  Why don’t you read the hundreds of cases of Babies I have helped to overcome their reflux on my Website which will answer your question ?

                  Please read and STUDY my prescription which they have all used.

  292. Garima says:

    Sir, I have changed the way I used Nat phos 6x and following your method. Would let you know the change after 2 days. Sir, I read that u prescribe Nat phos 6x from a company. But I am using Dr.reckeweg natrum phosphoricum 6x manufactured in germany. Should I switch to some other company, or this is the same thing that u advice.
    Thanks

    • Joe says:

      For which ailment do you take Nat Phos 6x and what is the change you with to report?

      You may use Nat Phos 6x made by any manufacturer as they are all the same as long as you get the Biochemic Cell Salt.

    Hello there, I have a 4 week old who seems to have reflux. She shows signs by arching her back, frequent spitting up (sometimes coupled with crying, hard time sleeping even on an incline and so on. She seems to toss and turn all night and no matter how long we hold her upright she always seems to spit once laid down, once she does fall asleep it’s not deep, it’s constant flailing, grunting until she wakes her self…if I pick her up she will fall asleep belly down on my chest … please, what is your suggestion for us and how to administer. Also is there any side effects?

    • Jessica harding says:

      I also forgot to mention wet burps, frequent hiccups which also sound wet. Also I wasn’t sure if I was able to take the pills to pass it to her and she is breast fed or if it’s best to give it to her directly. I already ordered the nat phos 6x and will await your reply

    • Joe says:

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
      Do not give the MMR Vaccine in One shot as there is plenty of evidence on the Web of severe side effects which can result. You are advised to give it in 3 separate shots if you must do so, after baby is 2 years old.

      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.

        Thank you for your prompt reply. So half a pill before and after feedings for baby and 6 a day for me? How long should I look to see results

    My 4 month old has silent reflux , she has had it since she was born but was never in any noticeable pain so I opted to not give meds . She is now getting hoarse from it . We are dairy / soy free . She is exclusively breast fed , will not take a bottle . Do we follow default therapy of half tablet ? Can I put the tablet under tongue instead ?

    • Joe says:

      It just depends on how long the NP6x tablet takes to dissolve in the mouth. You can soak it in a little water and when soft you may then insert it. This is to prevent any possibility of choking.

    Dear Dr. Delivera:

    I was wondering if you suggest using Nat Phos 6x for a 3 week old exclusively breast fed infant that is “gassy” and experiencing discomfort and sleep disturbaces as exhibited by grunting, whimpering and at times crying in her sleep, and curling her body while bending her knees into her stomach. Sometimes this movement allows her to relieve the pain or discomfort by farting or burping in her sleep but other times she will awaken crying with her body contorted when she cannot pass gas. She is burped immediately after feeding but I am observing that sometimes she is unable to burp immediately and can take 5 min or sometimes 45-60 minutes after a feeding to release gas. Initially her Pediatrician suggested she may have reflux due to my oversupply so feedings have been small and frequent (5-10 min per breast every 2-3 hrs). Her typical feed when She Is eating efficiently is 15-30 min and a lactation consultant calculated she is currently eating 2.5-3 oz per feed. She is also being kept upright for 20-30 min after feeding to aid in digestion. She also sleeps elevated at times but she will exhibit discomfort sleeping flat or elevated. Lastly, my daughter is not diagnosed with GERD. Can Nat Phos 6x help alleviate her gas and allow her to have more restful sleep?

    • Joe says:

        Good afternoon Dr. Delivera. Hope all is well. I have followed your instructions and given my daughter half a tablet before every feeding and have seen great improvement. She is no longer crying in pain and is sleeping for longer periods of time (2-3 hours) I am so thankful for your help. I would like to know for how much longer I should continue the treatment and if I should not exceed more than 6 tablets(12 halfs) in 24 hours as I have read in your previous posts??

    Hi.
    I have twin daughters, now of 4 months. They were diagnosed with silent reflux at the age of 2 months. First i gave them nexium but it didn’t help at all. after that they are on Zantac (ranitidine), it helps a little bit. They are a little calmer but one of thier problem is that they only take thier bottle whilw sleeping. This problem arises after their reflux issue.

    Than i go through this website and I purchased Nat Phos 6x. Can you please prescribed me the dose and guide me that should I continue with zantac also.

    As per my understanding, i have to give them medicine immediately after feed. But I told you that they only sleep feed so is it possible to give them when awake after feed.

    Thnx

    Hi.

    I gave them first dose today in the morning. But I have a problem that when i crush and dissolve the tablet in water, it doesn’t dissolve properly. It makes the water gelatin like thick and powder is still undissolved. Is there anything which I am not doing right? Can I put the powder directly in her mouth?

    I take schuessler tissue salts Nat phos 6x, Its not from Hyland’s brand because its not available where i live.

    Hi Dr. I have a 6 month old who is currently on 20mg of Nexium (divided between 3 doses) per day. She is only 14 lb and recently got a failure to thrive diagnosis due to her poor growth. I have been doing an elimination diet for almost two months with no real results. She has acidic, often watery, often mucousy, often green stools and poor weight gain. I tried weaning off the PPI but her reflux started flaring up again after 3 days and then she doesn’t want to eat. I’m wondering if you have insight into starting this Nat Phos 6 in order to wean off of the PPI (because I believe the PPI may be effecting her growth). However, I also believe that she is sensitive to cows milk, as dairy was the first thing I removed from my diet when she was 2 months old and we saw big changes. I read that Nat Phos 6 contains dairy. Can you confirm if this is true or not? Thank you very much for your help!

    • Joe says:

      STOP THE NEXIUM IMMEDIATELY.

      You will make it as per instructions below and give a teaspoonful, twice daily.

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Get Robinia P 30c in the standard pellets and insert just 6 pellets into a 500ml bottle of Spring Water.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Shake the bottle hard before you give baby half teaspoonful twice daily.

    Hello Dr De Livera,

    I am writing to enquire about my 3 week old baby and his developing reflux. I have read your recommended treatment (1/2 tab Nat Phos 6x dissolved in breastmilk after each feeding) and I plan to start this, as well as the 2 tablets after meals for myself. My daughter (now 2) had reflux and we used Zantac, which I really want to avoid with my son, so I’m planning to start early to get it under control.

    My question for you is this: he has a procedure scheduled next week to have his tongue tie released, which contributes to reflux. The recommended treatment for pain is Arnica Montana, 30x, 1/4 tablet, I believe every 4 hours, as well as Tylenol if needed beyond the Arnica. I want to make sure this will be ok to do for up to a week while baby is getting the Nat Phos. I already follow a dairy and soy free, pretty bland diet while my babies are so little, to help with their digestive issues. Also, I thought I read in a reply that you wanted a mom to also take Arnica, but I don’t know if that was specific to that situation?

    If you need background information on my son, he is 19 days old today, delivered vaginally without medication or intervention at 40 weeks 3 days gestation. He did have the cord wrapped around his neck, but it was loose enough that my doctor just slipped over his head during delivery. He is generally a very calm and alert baby, until the last few days, other than when he is in his carseat. He enjoys being swaddled and held, but is content if laid down, prior to the onset of symptoms, anyway. He weighed 7 lbs 15 oz at birth, and yesterday he weighed 8 lbs 5 oz. He is exclusively breastfed, he is our third child, the first two are healthy other than my daughter’s infant reflux and some eczema. Starting at 2 or 3 days old, he would give the appearance of spitting up, but would swallow it down with a few big gulps, then gasp for air. However, the last few days, he’s started arching his back and crying with this, as well as spitting up any time he’s laid down. He occasionally has trouble nursing, especially when he needs to burp or have a bowel movement.

    Please advise as to the arnica and acetaminophen, and if there are any concerns you see in what I have posted. I will report back in 48 hours as requested in previous responses.

    Thank you very much for your help!!

    Sincerely,
    Amanda

      Glad to note that you have studied my therapy aka “Joepathy” on my Website and that you have already started your baby on my default therapy, Nat Phos 6x (Biochemic Cell Salt).

      The dose I prescribe is Half tablet before a feed and the balance half given immediately after the feed. You will not exceed 6 tablets daily for an infant.

      It is very likely that it is his Tongue Tie that is the root cause of his current Baby GERD and I shall expect you to inform me how he progressed after this minor surgery which a few babies present.

      You mentioned Eczema affecting your 2 year old daughter and if she does suffer from this ailment today I shall prescribe for it, if you ask me to do so.

        Thank you Doctor, for your quick reply and your counsel. I will keep you informed of his progress. He had an adjustment by a Pediatric chiropractor/Crainal Sacral Therapist this morning, and he already seems much improved this afternoon with this combination of “Joepathy” and the adjustment!! He slept rather well last night, also! We will continue your therapy, and he will be adjusted again Monday and Wednesday before his procedure on Thursday.

        Am I to understand correctly that I should only give one dose of Arnica after the procedure, and not repeat at the return of pain signs? What is considered to be a dose, the 1/4 tablet I mentioned, or something different? My daughter also had this same procedure, but she was a little older (8mos) so I was able to give Ibuprofen when she needed it, which I prefer over acetaminophen.

        Thank you!!

        • Joe says:

          I note that you seem to have been overwhelmed by your Pediatric chiropractor/Crainal Sacral Therapist who had already “adjusted” your daughter and has also experimented with your newborn infant.
          I am alarmed that he will experiment with your baby again and again in a few days.

          My considered opinion is that this form of therapy is totally unnecessary in an infant and you should not interpret baby’s response “He slept rather well last night” was the result of his “adjustment”. Nature will ensure that he grows up into adulthood without any assistance from adjusters who would obviously charge you a fat fee for exposing baby to some unnecessary danger.

          If your pediatrician advises the minor surgery for a tongue-tie, you may go ahead with it, but I would prefer that you let baby survive without any adjustments unless there is a reason for it in later life, which is unlikely.

          The Arnica will promote healing after the nip and will also act as an analgesic in the Wet dose made as per instructions below:

          The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

          Order the remedy in the Ethanol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
          Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
          Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
          Insert 1 drop of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you give baby half teaspoonful of the remedy.
          Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done at least 6 times before sipping a capful of the bottle as prescribed.

    Hello Sir,

    I am a mother of 4.5 months old daughter. she was born prematurely at 35 weeks. For quite some time say 3 weeks we have noticed some symptoms that made us think she might have GERD.

    1. Projectile vomiting
    2. Spit milk after every feed if she was fed while awake.
    3. Rejects feeding even if she is hungry. Dream feed is the only way.
    4. Continuous crying and lifts her legs upward as if she is going through some pain.
    5. Pulling her hairs if the feeding bottle is brought closer.

    She is on formula milk only. I had started with Nat Phos 6x (1 tab thrice a day) from last two days but I found no noticeable improvement. I cannot give this medicine after meal because she spit anytime in 30 min duration. I am in a fix and unable to find a way. Most of the doctors (allopathy) discarded the fact that babies can have acid refulx. Those who were much experienced suggested Rantac, a drug with much alcohol content and that too is no permanent solution.

    Please help.

    • Joe says:

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
      Do not give the MMR Vaccine in One shot as there is plenty of evidence on the Web of severe side effects which can result. You are advised to give it in 3 separate shots if you must do so, after baby is 2 years old.

      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.

  306. Loral says:

    Help! I had precut some of the pills for my two month old and my husband accidentally gave her all of them thinking it was one dose! What should I do? She probably took 6 pills all together.

    Thanks!

    • Joe says:

      In all my 40 years in Homeopathy yours is the first case where an infant is given 6 pills in one dose:
      ” my husband accidentally gave her all of them thinking it was one dose!”

      You have not stated baby’s age and what the PILLS are but I presume that you have read my advice to mothers to give HALF TABLET Nat Phos 6x before and the balance AFTER a feed.

      Nat Phos 6x is not a drug but giving a baby presumably around 6 months old 6 tablets is NOT recommended.

      You will observe how baby responds by now which is about 6 hours after the dose was given and it is unlikely that baby is in any danger. If otherwise you must take baby to hospital for a stomach wash.

      You will take steps to ensure that your husband is kept away from baby as it is obviously very foolish of him to give 6 large tablets which is about a teaspoonful of powder on which baby can CHOKE as it is dry and will be very sticky if given to a baby.

  307. Holly says:

    Hello Dr,

    I have a 16 week old boy who was diagnosed with silent reflux about 5 weeks ago, he also with gut irritation.

    He was on Ranitidine (Zantac) for 4 weeks but I have just recently taken him off this drug as we found it gave him very frequent chronic diarrhoea and also, what looked like tummy cramps. I do not want to put him back on harsh drugs.

    He is however taking baby Probiotics for his digestion.

    Today I will start your recommended dosage of Nat Phos x 6 but I do have a couple of queries:

    – can I still give my son the Probiotics?

    – my son feeds more than 6 times a day, shall I not give him the remedy for some feeds or would you recommend I exceed the recommend amount?

    Please are you able to advise?

    Thank you in advance
    Holly

    • Joe says:

      Glad to note that you have stopped the Zantac.

      You may increase the Nat Phos 6x to a maximum of 8 half tablets given before and after a feed and it is very likely that you will discover that you will not need it in under a week when his digestive system is stabilized.

      You may continue the Probiotic.

    Thank you so much for your speedy response.

    We shall give this a go and report back.

    Thank you again
    Holly

    • Holly says:

      Hello Dr,

      Thought I should report back on my son as I don’t think he is responding to the Nat Phos – it has been nearly 4 days since we started.

      My main observation is that he is still arching with a squeal off my breast after a few minutes of feeding despite being very hungry – the length of feed seems to be getting shorter.

      After a feed his twisting head and back seem very exaggerated and his body is generally very stiff. This twisting motion is very evident in his sleep too.

      Since coming off the Zantac (Sunday) and starting the therapy the, frequency of stools has improved however and the diarrhoea is getting better.

      Would you recommend I continue with just using the Nat Phos or should I look at introducing further remedies to reinforce the action?

      Thank you again
      Holly

      • Joe says:

        It seems to me that Baby is not responding to the Nat Phos 6x alone and it is time to add Robinia Pseudacacia 30c in the Wet dose to reinforce its action. This remedy will reduce the Hcl acid flow in baby’s stomach and works in a similar manner to the standard PPI drugs like Nexium which are usually prescribed by doctors even though they are aware that they are dangerous.

        You will make it as per instructions below and give a teaspoonful, twice daily.

        The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

        Get Robinia P 30c in the standard pellets and insert just 6 pellets into a 500ml bottle of Spring Water.
        Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
        Shake the bottle hard before you give baby half teaspoonful twice daily.

        You will stop the Robinia as soon as you find that baby is OK but you will continue the Nat Phos for as long as you feel that it is needed. Nat Phos is NOT a drug and is absolutely safe in usefor long periods.

        Report progress in 48 hours.

        • Holly says:

          Much appreciated thank you. I have just ordered the standard tablets for Robinia P 30c so will report back after 48 hours once I have received them.

  309. Holly says:

    Hi Doctor,

    I have now received the Robinia 30c tablets. I have placed the tablets in the bottled water and shaken but appears they are not easily dissolvable. Presumably it’s ok to crush the tablets first and then shake in the water? Just wanted to ensure I haven’t ordered the tablets incorrectly.

    Thank you

    • Joe says:

      It does not matter how the pellets dissolve as they will do so in a few minutes.

      Read and follow my therapy as prescribed and report response in 48 hours.

  310. Holly says:

    Hello Dr,

    It’s been nearly 48 hours now since using Robinia P and I’m not sure I can see much improvement.

    He is still arching off my breast and still uncomfortable after a feed – he is grunting, twisting and wriggling. Perhaps less pronounced than before.

    There is still also head twisting from side to side whist he is asleep at night.

    I am wondering if there is more than just silent reflux going on in his tummy.

    Would you recommend another 24 hours of Robinia P? Are there any side effects of Robinia that could be cause for concern?

    Many thanks
    Holly

    • Joe says:

      There is very little more that I can think of to help your baby as the therapy I prescribed has been used by hundreds of babies successfully as you can read on my website.

      The 2 remedies I have prescribed, Nat Phos 6x and Robinia are NOT DRUGS and cannot harm baby. They are far safer than the dangerous PPI drugs like Nexium which is usually prescribed by doctors.

      • Holly says:

        Thank you Dr. I will continue with the Robina for a couple more days and see if there is any difference and if not, I guess I should stop the remedies.

        I am off to see a specialist tomorrow so I hope this he can help.

        Thank you for all you advice and support.

    Hello Dr Joe,

    Greetings from the US. I was hoping you would be able to provide me some guidance for my daughter who is suffering from reflux. Her details and symtoms are as follows:
    1. 7 weeks old, 8.8 Lbs, healthy
    2. Feeds about 16-19 ounces of breast milk and some formula a day since I don’t produce more than 15 ounces of breast milk. She cluster feeds so takes small amounts many times a day
    3. She is fussy after every feed and spits up or vomits atleast 3-4 times a day
    4. Sleeps shorter naps during the day but does sleep better at night waking up for feedings only. I fear she is not getting enough sleep due to her discomfort.

    I have ordered the Nat Phos 6x and will give her 1/2 tablet after each feed upto 6 tablets a day. Will it help me solve these issues:

    1. Pain and discomfort
    2. Amount she feeds and hence weight gain
    3. Better sleep for growth and development

    I will report back on progress.

    Thank you for your help.

        I have been following the therapy for 24 hours and still don’t see any effect. Had a few questions:

        1. Does Nat Phos 6x cause weight loss in babies too? Like it does in adults?
        2. My daughter cluster feeds since she cant take a big feed at a time – how often can I give the repeat Nat Phos 6x dose? Every hour if my daughter feeds every hour? I will not exceed 6 tablets in 24 hours. Please advise.
        3. Does Nat Phos 6x impact her sleep? She isn’t sleeping much today.

          Baby is just 24 hours on my Nat Phos 6x therapy and it is still too early to give her the remedy to reduce acid flow into her stomach but you are advised to get:
          Robinia Pseudacacia 30c in the pellets which I may have to instruct you to use if she does not respond to the NP6x alone.

          No mother has ever reported any weight loss in babies.
          However adults will lose 1kg per week with 2 tablets NP6x after every meal.

          The great advantage of NP is that it is absolutely safe in use unlike the dangerous PPI drugs usually prescribed by doctors.

            Thank you Dr Joe.

            My daughter has now been on Nat Phos for 3 days and I do see an improvement. The vomiting has reduced during the day and sleep is better. However, she is still uncomfortable at night between 7pm to 12am. A lot of crying, some vomiting and no sleep. Wants to be held.

            Do you recommend I continue the Nat Phos for more days to see if it makes a difference even at night or add another medicine like Robinia to help her.

            Where can I buy the Robinia Pseudacacia pellets?

            Please advise.

    Hello Dr Joe,

    Update from my end:

    My daughter has been on NP for 4 days and I can see an improvement. During the day she is much better and sleeps and is less fussy and no vomiting. In the evenings she still is very fussy, vomits once or twice and wants to be held.

    I have ordered the Robinia as advised by you. Should I also order Nux Vomica as you advise to other patients?

    Please advise on if I should add the Robinia to her therapy or wait for a few more days on NP.

    Good afternoon,

    I tried to give my son Nat Phos (1/2 tablet) after each feeding and he developed spitting up of 2 or more table spoons worth of milk. He is 3.5 months old, at 14 lbs, 23 inches, and is only getting breast milk. He wasn’t spitting up before. He did have the trouble sleeping, arched back, excessive hiccups, wet burps, sour smell of breath, wheezing, cough, uneven stools (timing), and worst he fights eating. He hits his head, me, and kicks a lot. Sometimes he gags and chokes when given a bottle. He screams when we try to feed him by bottle or breast.

    I’m on a diet of no dairy, pea protein, soy, eggs, or gassy vegetables. This doesn’t seem to be helping him either. I was also taking the Nat phos as well. His doctor wants him on Axid, which he hates and cries about.

    He had these issues before being vaccinated, I didn’t know I should wait… 🙁 He’s scheduled for his next set of shots this months at his 4 month check up.

    Thank you for your help, it is nice that you take your personal time to help our little ones.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.

        I did similar already which I thought I was pointing out, but I think was missed. This caused him to start to spit up. Is this common? This is why I stopped and he has also stopped spitting up.

        • Joe says:

          If you have discovered that your baby is allergic to the Nat Phos 6x and refluxes his feed, the answer is obvious.

          Stop the Nat Phos.

          You may like to know that he is the first patient in my experience, after having treated over 250 babies on my Website, who is allergic to this Biochemic Cell Salt.

    Mr. De Livera,

    We are giving our 5-month old NP half tablet before and after a feeding as you recommend. The maximum dose is 6 tables per 24 hours. My wife feeds the baby at least 8 times per 24 hours. So, we are skipping the NP dose for two feedings. Usually, we see symptoms of acid reflux for feedings without the NP. What do you recommend?

    Thanks,
    Hector

    • Hector S. says:

      I forgot to mention that he is 5 months and two weeks old and weights 13 lbs and 10 oz. We had him on Prilosec for more than two months (following the pediatrician advice) and started the NP treatment a few days ago. We noticed that his growth slowed down with during the prilosec treatment.

    • Joe says:

      Glad to note that you have already been using my default therapy with Nat Phos 6x in half tablet doses for baby. NP6x is far safer in comparison to the Prilosec but I do still prefer that you do not exceed the 6 tablet limit unless on a SOS basis.

      If baby does not get over his GERD in a few days we can add Robinia Pseudacacia 30c in the Wet dose and half teaspoonful is given twice daily.

    Dear Mr De Livera,

    My name is Pauline, i am from the UK. I have a 14 weeks daughter.
    After long research I realised that my baby has silent reflux.
    I don’t use any medicines appart homeopathy. She hasen’t been vaccinated either.
    I started your therapy 48hours ago and I have seen my baby condition getting worse.
    She is resteless, has the hiccups more than usual. Her sleeps pattern has worsen as well.
    Should I carry on giving her nat phos 6x ?
    What would you suggest ?
    I know homeopathy can take some time.
    Kind regards
    Pauline

    • Joe says:

      “I started your therapy 48hours ago and I have seen my baby condition getting worse.”

      I do not seem to have prescribed for you and would like to know if you have used my default therapy with Nat Phos 6x tablets given in halves before and after a feed.

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.

  318. Pauline says:

    Thank you for your answer. I have indead started your default therapy.
    Should I start robinia pseudacacia 30c in wet dose, twice a day ?

    • Joe says:

      You will not use Robinia right now till you have given the NP6x to baby as prescribed for a week and reported her response.

  319. Pauline says:

    I will do that thanks. I have a last question. Does it happen often that the baby sleep less in a kind of a restless state, also lots of hiccups and spitups after starting the therapy ?

    • Joe says:

      I noticed that in your first post you indicated:
      “After long research I realised that my baby has silent reflux.”
      It appears to me that you may not have consulted a pediatrician and would like to know if you have done so to diagnose baby’s problem as I cannot do so on the basis of your statements.

      There is a possibility of baby having a Tongue Tie which can also be the cause of her current distress.

      I would also like to know if you are giving her the Biochemic Cell Salt of Nat Phos 6x in tablet form and NOT the Homeopathic variety which is in round pellets.

  320. Pauline says:

    I have seen a doctor and wanted to give me something to treat it which I refused. So I have done research myself to understand silent reflux a bit more and came across your Therapy.
    I am giving her the right tablets.

    Hi, My son is now is almost 4 weeks (DOB is 14 Feb 2017), he is a premature baby born in week 36. for the past 2 weeks, my baby is with GRED and I have received the Nat Phos 6x #10.

    Dear Joe,

    I have 8 week old son who I believe si suffering from silent reflux. He is a preemie and born at 34 week gestation. He doesnt seem to be fussy all day long just a couple hours at night.

          I note that your baby is just 2 weeks old on a corrected age.

          Please read my prescription and also check the remedies on the WWW to reassure yourself about their absolute safety in comparison to the dangerous PPI drugs like Nexium, Prevacid, et al that are normally prescribed by peds who delight in causing more distress to their patients than to cure them.

          Your questions are all answered in my prescription.
          Please read and understand the instructions which I have shared with hundreds of babies.

          “how long should I continute to give him this?”

          This question frankly irritates me as you expect me to prophesy baby’s response even before you use my therapy.

          Feel free to consult any other physician in the future.

    Hello Doctor de Livera.

    I hope you can offer some guidance.

    My daughter is 12weeks old and is suffering Silent Reflux. She rarely vomits but gulps, chokes, screams, and is very very uncomfortable after feeds. She has been prescribed Ranitidine but I have seen little improvement and I don’t like giving it to her due to its long-term dangers.

    I am eager to try your Nat Phos 6x therapy as I have great faith in the powers of homeopathy after being treated successfully myself as a child where western medicine had failed. Sadly, our great family friend and trusted homeopath is no longer with us. Her counsel is greatly missed.

    I note that sometimes you recommend dividing the dose to half a tablet before and after feeds, and other times to give a full tablet after feeds only. How would I determine which approach would be best for my daughter? I also note that a maximum of 6 tablets may be given per 24hours.

    She is formula fed unfortunately as I was very ill after her birth due to a huge blood loss, but apart from the reflux she is thriving and gaining weight along her centile line appropriately. Thankfully she has not developed any feeding aversions or tendencies towards over feeding but I am cautious to feed her little and often. However, despite painstaking burping immediately after (and often during) feeds…she still seems a very “burpy” baby and suffers often from quite aggressive hiccups which cause her significant distress.

    Any guidance and wisdom would be very gratefully received by the whole family at this testing time!

    Kindest regards,
    Catrin

    Hi Sir,

    my son is 5 months old he has gerd reflux is not that bad; the only thing that bothers him is when the milk comeback or the hiccups other than that he growing and the weight is ok. He was 5 weeks premature I have tried gripe water and Probiotic but it doesn’t help. I would like to try nat phos 6x do you think that alone will help. He is a happy baby sleeps well most of the time all night sometimes after his bottle at 5 am a little bit of the milk come back but its more during the day. I notice that sometimes is water mix with milk that comes back; he does put his finger in his mouth and salivate a lot

      ” He is a happy baby sleeps well most of the time all night sometimes after his bottle at 5 am a little bit of the milk come back but its more during the day.”

      I note that you are not feeding your Preemie with your Breast Milk and this is obviously the reason why he is refluxing his feed today. It is also very likely that you tend to overfeed him and this will contribute to his problem.

        good morning Sr.

        yes, you are right, unfortunately, after two month I was not able to breastfeed the baby because I lost a little blood when I deliver my baby due to Placenta Previa and ended up no able to produce enough milk. I have ordered the nat phos and will see how its goes and will follow your instructions. Right now the baby is taking 200 ml of milk during the day 3 times in a day and the last one at 7:30 before going to bed after that one at around 5:30 am.

        during the day I feed him between 3 to 4hours in between

    Good day sir, I last reported on March 27, . I have receieived
    The RP30C as u prescribed. Please may I know the dosage. Thank you
    Update of baby; she turned 2 months yesterday, she doesn’t vomit. But wakes up when I lay her down after turning around and squeezing her face and making a fist. She also gulps and swallows sometimes cough and choke. She still breathes heavily , make very loud sound as if congested or there’s something in her throat . I stop the may phos for less that 24 hours one day to check her reaction, I realized her food just sat there in her stomach because she was bloated and the milk came back up once but in a curd form with water. As soon as I started the dosage again she had an explosive boop and seem to be better. I believe the medicine helps just not enough. It helps her with gas and burping more. Please help me . Thank you.

    • Joe says:

      If Baby is not responding to the Nat Phos 6x alone it is time to add Robinia Pseudacacia 30c in the Wet dose to reinforce its action. This remedy will reduce the Hcl acid flow in baby’s stomach and works in a similar manner to the standard PPI drugs like Nexium which are usually prescribed by doctors even though they are aware that they are dangerous.

      You will make it as per instructions below and give a teaspoonful, twice daily.

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Get Robinia P 30c in the standard pellets and insert just 6 pellets into a 500ml bottle of Spring Water.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Shake the bottle hard before you give baby half teaspoonful twice daily.

      You will stop the Robinia as soon as you find that baby is OK but you will continue the Nat Phos for as long as you feel that it is needed. Nat Phos is NOT a drug and is absolutely safe in use for long periods.

      Report progress in 48 hours.

  330. Pow says:

    I meant explosive poop, sorry.

  331. Pow says:

    Sorry I didn’t report back after 48 hours. The symptoms were the same and I started feeling maybe baby is suffering from something different so I stopped. But I started again today. Twice a day RB in wet dose plus may phos 6x half before feed and remaining after feed.
    So far baby will be 10weeks tomorrow. She still wakes up after 30minites or less when I lay her down, squeezing face and body sometimes bringing out saliva with bubbles. Sometimes she cries . I’m so frustrated especially when she’s in pain and there’s nothing I can do. Dr thinks she’s suffering from sandifiers syndrome. I’m a first time mum and all this is getting me depressed. I’ll report back in 48 hours . Thanks you

    • Joe says:

      I too am concerned that NP6x and Rob P have not succeeded in helping baby so far. Sandifers Syndrome is a blanket term that peds use when they cannot diagnose and treat a problem like your baby’s which in my experience is extremely rare.

      Suggest you continue the NP6x and replace Rob P with Lycopodium 30c in the Wet dose and report results. Lyco works in a different manner and we will observe if it works better than the RP.

    Thank you sir. Will do

    I have a 4 week old who has reflux. He is EBF(exclusively breastfed) and eats every 2-3 hours. He is in pain after most feedings, but not all.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.

        Hi Dr.,

        I’ve veen giving my son the Nat Phos 6x for 48 hours an de I wanted to follow up. He seems to only be getting upset in the evening but it isn’t still lasting for 1.5-2.5 hours. Tonight he vomited more than I’ve seen. I would estimate there was 2-3 oz. this happened after an hour period of crying and discomfort and not him wanting to nurse burn mot really being able to latch for long due to the pain. I feel so terrible for him.

        I have cut out all diary and acidic foods from my diet including coffee. I am also taking Nat Phoenix 6x after 3 meals.

        Is there something else that I can do for him?

        Thank you,
        Whitney

    Hello Sir,

    My baby is 5 weeks and 4 days(10 pounds) now, she has symptoms of reflux like hiccups, gas, projectile vomit (quite alot), spit up. I got to know about reflux just a few days ago and I came across mama natural website where I found your website. First of all kudos to you as being 85+ you are so willing to serve humanity for betterment, there are not many people like you. I’m honored to be talking to you.

    I have tried elevating my daughters bed as well as I keep her upright, however she seems to be in distress all day – one day she sleeps all the time and other day she is awake and cranky. Also she didn’t have a bowel movement for 4 days, she had one yesterday it was huge one, seems she was stuffed up completely, again today she hasnt had one. Please can you suggest what should I do and also diet changes that I should incorporate. Everyone in my family is overweight I am concerned that my daughter too could be same, so if you can give any suggestions for that as well. I really want to see her contended and enjoy motherhood alongside. Your help and advice is appreciated.

    • Aarti V says:

      Also she is being exclusively breastfed and has 2.5-3oz every 2.5/3hrs.

    • Joe says:

      Glad to welcome you aboard from Chandler where your email IP indicates you live. I am now 87 and am still as good as I was over 30 years ago and I owe my long life to God and to Arnica 30c in the Wet dose which I have taken nightly since 1995.

      I note that your family is overweight:
      “Everyone in my family is overweight I am concerned that my daughter too could be same, so if you can give any suggestions for that as well.”

      I shall prescribe for your Baby first and add my default therapy for Obesity.

      Please note that I can only prescribe a few remedies but it is in your hands as the victims of Obesity to control your diet and exercise if you wish to enjoy a long life like me.

      Baby GERD

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
      Do not give the MMR Vaccine in One shot as there is plenty of evidence on the Web of severe side effects which can result. You are advised to give it in 3 separate shots if you must do so, after baby is 2 years old.

      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.

      OBESITY

      Please visit the link below entitied

      The Ultimate Cure for Obesity on:

      http://abchomeopathy.com/forum2.php/15923/

      This is a post I made on the ABC way back in 2004 on December 25, the day before the Tsunami hit Sri Lanka, a day which will forever will remain in my mind for as long as I live as I was involved in the Homeopathic after care of the many thousands of survivors immediately after the Tsunami when I was joined by members of Homeopaths Without Borders who sent 6 pairs of International Homeopaths to help care for the survivors.

      Your therapy for Obesity will comprise the use of
      Nat Phos 6x dose 3 tablets taken thrice daily after meals
      Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily before meals.

      Weigh yourself today before you commence on my therapy and report your weight loss weekly when the standard loss which you can expect and has been reported is around 1kg per week.

      You will also do a regular stint of at least 45 minutes of exercise which will be done by you at intensive levels, irrespective of the general feeling of tiredness that you may experience, if you wish to benefit from my Joepathy.

      You will also control your diet, eliminate all fatty food and eat in moderation to ensure that your stomach is filled to a comfortable level.

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Order the remedy in the Ethanol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
      Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
      Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done at least 6 times before sipping a capful of the bottle as prescribed.

      Please follow the following restrictions which are essential to ensure that the remedy prescribed is not antidoted:

      Do not use Coffee, Cola beverages, preserved foods like sausages, ham and bacon as they contain Saltpeter.

      Report your weight loss weekly when you can expect a drop of at least 1kg per WEEK.

    Hello Sir, after reading this I can see it relates to all the symptoms for
    Sandifers Syndrome especially arching of back that she does almost 5-6 times a day and abnormal eye movements 3-4 times..
    http://www.momjunction.com/articles/sandifers-syndrome-babies-symptoms-diagnosis-treatments_00106013/#gref

    Please can you suggest what would help her. I have ordered Nat Phos 6x already, awaiting its delivery..

    • Joe says:

      The majority of mothers are very concerned about their first baby’s problems for a few weeks or even months after they are born.

      I know myself how anxious I and my wife were with our first born son who is now almost 50 years and whom we had after 10 years of anxious waiting. He used to projectile vomit often over my shoulder and the result on the carpets added to our problems. I was not into Homeopathy at that time as I would have otherwise have treated the problem myself with Nat Phos 6x.

      It is not a surprise that she arches her back when distressed which you diagnosed as:
      “Sandifers Syndrome especially arching of back that she does almost 5-6 times a day and abnormal eye movements 3-4 times.”
      I will be very surprised if she does not respond in a few days.

      Report progress.

      • Aarti V says:

        Thank you Sir for your prompt replies. Today i received NP6 from hylands and I have started giving it to my daughter with lots of hopes. I know I am being paranoid but to see her go through all this makes me feel guilty as I’m the only source of her food and I am unable to calm her with that.. 🙁

        • Joe says:

          Did you follow my prescription and give the Nat Phos 6x tablet in halves, before and after every feed?

          • Aarti V says:

            Yes I have started with it yesterday, I’ll update as soon as there are improvements

            • Aarti V says:

              Hello Sir, It’s been 2 days I am giving my daugter NP6x, however there is not much change in her symptoms. She still wakes up once we put her in bed (which I have inclined) as the milk comes back to her throat causing discomfort and pain. Even when i take her and make her sleep on my shoulder she doesn’t seem to be 100% comfortable and keeps fiddling. Her sleep has reduced to 6-7 hours a day max that too if we carry her. One thing is, when i give her half the tablet after feeding, she usuallg spits up. Is there altenative time to give her medicine and is it important to dissolve it in milk. Thanks for your help with this.

              • Aarti V says:

                Also please if you could check the link to confirm that I’m using the right Nat Phos 6x Hyland’s Cell Salts #10 Natrum Phosphoricum 6X Tablets, Natural Homeopathic Relief of Indigestion, Gas, and Joint Pain, 500 Count https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0001TMPIK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_41YazbXSBXKX2

              • Joe says:

                Please confirm that you are following ALL the instructions I have given in my prescription. Also state in detail how you treat your baby with the Nat Phos 6x.
                Are you giving her half tablet before and the balance after a feed?
                You may dissolve the tablet in water or breast milk.

                You will order Robinia Pseudacacia 30c in pellets and I shall instruct you how to use them after I get your reply.

  336. Pow says:

    Dear sir, I’m happy to inform you that there’s a big improvement in baby. I refused to give up and continued with the np . She sleeps through the night. Her afternoon naps has also reduced. I’ve realized that not waiting for stomach to be empty helps so I wake her to feed her and she goes right back asleep. She wakes up to twisting and hitting her stomach but I’m guessing it’s might be some other tummy issues but so far choking and coughing has drastically reduced. My question is, should I reduce dosage now or continue. Also I want to put her on a probiotic. My last question is may you help me with increasing fertility or let me put it directly is there anything that I can take to increase my chance of having twins in the future. Thank you for all your help.

    • Joe says:

      Glad to learn that baby has finally responded to Nat Phos 6x + Lycopodium 30 in the Wet dose and is also sleeping through the night. This is indeed a blessing as you are also able to have a good night’s sleep which gives you the chance of recovering your energy to feed and look after baby during the day. I have had many mothers who are desperate and make statements sometimes even causing me some irritation as if I was responsible for their baby’s problems. You will now see that the diagnosis of Sandifer’s Syndrome was just a load of rubbish on the part of your ped who was unable to help baby.

      I presume that you have given baby Lycopodium for about a week twice daily and you can now stop it but continue the Nat Phos 6x.

      Report response.

      ” My last question is may you help me with increasing fertility or let me put it directly is there anything that I can take to increase my chance of having twins in the future.”

      It is only God who can help you to have twins as I cannot do so.
      I hope you are aware of the multiple problems that you, the mother will have if you do succeed.

  337. Pow says:

    Thank you. I didn’t have to use the lycopodium. Thanks also on your advice on twins 😀. God bless you.

    • Joe says:

      Glad to note that you did not have to use Lyco.
      You can taper the Nat Phos 6x till you are sure that it is not needed any more.

      Twins are usually wonderful but they are also “double trouble”

      God bless you and your family.

  338. Pow says:

    Amen. You are so kind. Thank you.

  339. Pow says:

    Hi sir, I’m back unfortunately but I’m fortunate to have you. Please my baby who is 12 weeks today has been crying since yesterday unusually n showing symptoms of the silent reflux again. I gave her the robina again as prescribed earlier. My question is can I give her robina continuously as I do with np. My next question is as I’m thinking my food irritates her , can I take the robina to reduce acid in my breast milk or what can I take as a mother to purify breast milk before it gets to baby. I’ve cut eggs, dairy, onion, tomatoes, I’m miserable , don’t know what to eat.

    • Joe says:

      Just go back to the same therapy I prescribed and include the Robinia for a few more days and report response.

      You may also take the same Robinia 4 times daily as it will be passed to baby in your milk. You can also increase your dose to 10ml

    Thank you sir

  341. Allison says:

    Dear Dr,
    I came across your site from Mamanatural’s website. I have a 6 week old son. He is exclusively breastfed and weighs almost 12 lbs. I believe he has silent reflux. He hates to sleep on his back, has a hoarse voice, hiccups frequently, wet burps, nasal congestion, frequently wakes and swallows down whatever comes up, cries often from whatever comes back up, gassy, explosive frothy poohs, etc. He does not spit up thankfully. I ordered Nat Phos and it should be here in a few days. I will plan on giving 1/2 pill before feedings and 1/2 after. Can I dilute the whole pill at once and put it all in a syringe with breastmilk and give half the syringe before and half after or does that mess up the ratio? I will also report back once we have started the remedy. Thank you.

    • Joe says:

        • Joe says:

          You may do so but baby may protest at the taste of the solution which is not really unpleasant as you can test yourself.

          Keep me posted on baby’s reaction.

          • Allison says:

            Dr,
            I have been giving my son Nat Phos for about 24 hours now and he seems to be doing better with his silent reflux symptoms. However, it did not help with his excessive gas. We were up 3-4 times last night because of his gas pains and him trying to push it out and crying. Any suggestions?

            Also, I have been diagnosed with post partum depression and would like to take some homeopathic remedies rather than a prescription the dr prescribed. Will this negatively affect my son to take the homeopathic remedies? Thank you very much.

            • Joe says:

              “I have been giving my son Nat Phos for about 24 hours now and he seems to be doing better with his silent reflux symptoms.”

              You have already observed that your baby has improved in under 24 hours and you do not appear to be satisfied with the results you reported after using my therapy aka “Joepathy” which no other physician would have prescribed.

              Don’t you think that you have to be thankful for his improvement in this short time frame instead of expecting me to perform yet another miracle to CURE him overnight?

              You also complain of Post Partum Depression and are about to take some drugs for it. I hope you are aware that any drug or Homeopathic remedy will be passed over to your baby in your breast milk.

              • Allison says:

                I am very thankful for the results of “joeapathy”, please do not think I am not appreciative of coming across the information about Nat Phos. I was simply reporting the results as requested. That and since running on 4 hour total sleep every night is getting quite exhausting, I figured I would see if you had any suggestions. Again thank you for your time and responses that you have given, they are appreciated.

                • Joe says:

                  I can see that both you parents suffer from a lack of sleep and you may like to know that I too suffered the same fate in the late Sixties when my first born son arrived 10 years after we were married. He too suffered from Baby GERD and would projectile vomit for many months and the peds we consulted and I just did not know how to treat him.

                  Homeopathy dates back to 250 years and it was up to me to ‘discover’ that NP6x was the ultimate remedy to help a baby which I did about 20 years ago. I am now 87 years of age and am still able to drive in Colombo thanks to not taking any drugs and only taking a dose of Arnica 30c nightly,

                  Your baby should have improved in the last hours and I presume all is well.

                  Feel free to report any distress which I feel is unlikely.

    Hello!
    I have been desperately trying to find a solution for my 9 month’s old breathing issues and reflux when I came across this website. She has had silent reflux since birth but it was manageable. When she reached 6.5 months old she started having very strange sobbing spasms at night (not following a crying spell) that no doctor could make any sense of. She had a EEG, MRI, CT scan, sleep study, blood work, and met with many specialists but all we could tell is she has obstructive sleep apnea and acid reflux. The doctor prescribed Prevacid which we have been giving for about a month now. I was breast feeding her and suspected a milk allergy so I cut out milk products. Her symptoms improved but she continued to have breathing issues at night so I recently switched her to Similac Alimentum. Her breathing problems disappeared completely but now we are dealing with major silent acid reflux. She arches constantly, acts uncomfortable, you can hear her food come up and then she swallows it and makes a sour face, has trouble sleeping at night, has nose congestion, trouble taking a bottle, doesn’t like to be laid back, etc. I would love your suggestion in how I can treat her. Every other doctor is puzzled and this Momma is very frustrated. Thank you so much!

      You may not be aware that I am 87 years old and have dedicated the rest of my life to help patients with my own variation of Homeopathy aka “Joepathy” (Google) which invariably cures the patient, Baby or Adult.

      It is very rarely that a patient cares to report that the patient is cured as they invariably take my part in helping the patient for granted. I thank you for sharing your joy with me after those anxious days when you the parents could not rest as your precious baby was suffering from the reflux of your breast milk. All that is now history and you can look forward to helping baby into Childhood and later into Adulthood.

      Feel free to consult me in the future and I shall be glad to help.

      You may now start reducing the dose of NP6x to enable baby’s own digestive system to take over. You may however take it yourself as usual as it will help you to keep your weight under control while your breast milk will carry its effect to baby.

      Where do you live?

  344. Andrea says:

    We are from Quebec city, Canada.
    Yes, I’ve been reading a lot about you and your amazing work! You are a miracle worker and an excellent doctor!!! I can’t describe how grateful we are! Exactly like you said, It’s devastating to see your little one suffering from your breast milk! and I’ve always been careful with my diet, buying organic local from farmers markets and cooking every day. And I’ve been careful with my mental hygiene practicing Qi gong but still I had a huge problem. Now, thanks to you, we are on gluten, dairy free diet and I could say that I’ve never felt better! Yes, I’ve lost my weight, I gained 8 kg in my pregnancy( I had 65 kg by the end of the pregnancy and now I have 55kg). I’m 175cm high. I don’t know if you remember, but I had a little concern before I started your therapy: I thought if I will be losing weight, would that also affect my baby,but you reassured me and you said it wouldn’t .. that’s exactly what happened. She is gaining weight and she is perfectly happy and healthy baby! Would it be possible to thank you with the donation just to express our gratitude?THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR HELP DOCTOR!

    • Joe says:

      It was nice to receive your post and to learn that all is well with your baby and yourself especially about your weight loss.

      I see that you “Would it be possible to thank you with the donation just to express our gratitude? ”

      Thank you for the offer but in over 45 years in Homeopathy I have always provided a free service to all who consult me worldwide. Here in Colombo I give all patients who consult me the remedies too free of charge.

      I would appreciate however if you can help to spread the message about my “Joepathy” especially on Internet Forums to young mothers who like you, were desperate for a cure of their infant. You can also help to educate your pediatricians who are trained to be suspicious of Homeopathy and to only prescribe the dangerous PPI drugs which the FDA have alerted the public about the dangers of using them in the long term, but unfortunately not Banned them for adults.

      I shudder to think how dangerous they are for infants.

  345. Andrea says:

    Dear Doctor,

      Do not give the MMR Vaccine in One shot as there is plenty of evidence on the Web of severe side effects which can result. You are advised to give it in 3 separate shots if you must do so, after baby is 2 years old.

      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.

      • Kriti says:

        Doctor, thanks a lot for the response. Just one more question – In a few days we need to give her the vaccine for rotavirus. Should we give the medicine on that day? If not when should we start again?

        Thanks

    Hi Sir, Not sure why you did not respond to my last query. We have to follow the normal vaccination schedule, so cant avoid it. I have been giving her the Nat Phos 6x as directed by you. She seems to improve on the acid reflux, but nowadays she is also having gas and colic problem and she is not able to sleep well. She cries out of sleep and also cant sleep more than 45 mins at stretch during daytime. It is really hard for us to soothe her and get her to sleep. Takes around 40mins of soothing just to make her sleep each time. She is still cranky and seems to be more cranky during evening. However her acid reflux symptoms are much less now. Please advise if we need to give any other medicine?

    • Joe says:

      It seems to me that Baby is not responding to the Nat Phos 6x alone and it is time to add Robinia Pseudacacia 30c in the Wet dose to reinforce its action. This remedy will reduce the Hcl acid flow in baby’s stomach and works in a similar manner to the standard PPI drugs like Nexium which are usually prescribed by doctors even though they are aware that they are dangerous.

      You will make it as per instructions below and give half teaspoonful, twice daily.

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Get Robinia P 30c in the standard pellets and insert just 6 pellets into a 500ml bottle of Spring Water.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Shake the bottle hard before you give baby half teaspoonful twice daily.

      You will stop the Robinia as soon as you find that baby is OK but you will continue the Nat Phos for as long as you feel that it is needed. Nat Phos is NOT a drug and is absolutely safe in use for long periods.

      Report progress in 48 hours.

      • Kriti says:

        Sir,

        Thanks a lot for the help. I continued use of Nat Phos 6. We just use 2 pellets a day. It has been 1 and a 1/2 month now. She is doing much better. How long should I use nat phos? Again thanks a ton for the help

        • Joe says:

          Did you give baby Nat Phos 6x which is always in tablets or did you give her Nat Phos 6 which is always in round pellets?

          • Kriti says:

            Sir,

            We give her Nat Phos 6x (bio chem) from company SBL.

            Her severity has decreased and we are giving her 1 tablet a day for last 1 and half months. How long can we continue to give her? She is now 3.5 months old.

            She is also having another problem – Eczema on face. Doctor gave hydrocorticoids, but when we apply for few days they go away but again come back. Red rashes on face and ears. Any other forum to ask or can you please advise.

            Thanks again for your support.

              It seems to me that you are not following my prescription for Baby GERD and I shall copy it below:

              I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

              The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

              You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

              You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

              You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

              It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.

              You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.

              The product you are using are in TABLETS and are the Biochemic Cell Salt which is OK.

              Order Arnica 6c in the Liquid Dilution to be used later for baby’s Eczema. It is understood that you will NOT use it till I instruct you later.

              • Kriti says:

                Sir,

                Thanks a ton doctor. I have been giving her the Nat phos 6x in tablet form. Reduced the dose o 1 tablet per day giving in halves per meal. So I assume to continue the Nat Phos.

                My baby is not taking any other medicine except the cream for eczema at times.

                Please advise.

                  Just to add few more observations –

                  She is bottle feeding and not breast. So her mom is not taking the Nat Phos 6x.
                  She spits out curd like semi solid materials after feeding.
                  Her poop colour is dark greenish.
                  She is out of the GERD discomfort, but seems to have some difficulty digesting the milk.

                  Thats all

                    This is a problem that I encounter sometimes with patients who consult me on my Website as the information is not given at the beginning of the consult.

                    This is the first time you mentioned that you are not breast feeding baby.

                    A change of your Formula is indicated ASAP as I suspect that your baby seems allergic to what you are giving today.

                    • Kriti says:

                      Thanks a lot doctor. Sorry, I missed out the point because at that time she was still on breastfeeding.

                      I will consult a doctor for the formula change. And continue on Nat Phos 6x.

                      Please let me know about eczema treatment and when to start.

                      You can start by spraying Arnica 6c which you will make with 10 pellets dissolved in 500ml water.

                      I would not like to give Arnica 6c to her orally unless on a SOS basis.

                      You will stop using all creams and other drugs as you will observe that they are only effective for a few hours.

                      Is there any valid reason for your stopping feeding baby your Breast Milk which is by far more nourishing for her ?

                      I have done my part at my advanced age of almost 88 years to help your baby and have patiently responded to all your queries but you are taking unfair advantage of my patience.

                      I have given you precise instructions on how to treat baby and I cannot continue to waste my time on you in the future.

However I am running around places to get the medicine you prescribe. I have order one Arnica 6c from India that will reach on 23rd Sep. Sorry again, but I did not take any undue advantage. I have proposed your site and advise to all my friends. I am really grateful to you and will always be. Again sorry if you misunderstood me.

      My Website is my contribution to alleviate the problems faced by suffering humanity who in many cases have been under treatment from doctors and later classical homeopaths who have prescribed various drugs and remedies but have not succeeded in curing the patients.

      I am almost 88 years old and Homeopathy is not my profession. I have been fascinated by the incredible power of Homeopathy to CURE seemingly impossible cases many of whom have recorded their ailments and in many cases the relief they experienced from pain and were cured by my “Joepathy” (Google).

      I have devoted the rest of my life to help anyone in distress who consults me and you are invited to study the many cases I have treated and invariably CURED on my Website.

    Hi sir, my daughter is 9 weeks old she has shown sign of acid reflux from first week after birth. I have consulted numerous pediatricians even a GI specialist they all prescribed zantac domperidone gaviscon and omeprazole. I have used zantac on and off i actually do not want to use these meds but when my baby symptoms got worse i used these. I have read your therapy different sites and wanted to use it. Her symptoms are silent and normal reflux, congestion, cough, chocking, hiccups, gaging swallowing crying in pain. She also chew her hands. Mostly sleep on my chest, want to be held most of time and threw her hands and feed during feeds. She scratch herself and my hands during feeds.she cries in pain during her sleep. Her hemoglobin level is decreased from 10.3 to 9 in a month.she is formula fed.
    Today i have administered first dose of nat phos 6x one tablet dissolved in water at 4:30 pm.
    Please guide me, is nat phos is enough according to her symptoms.

    Hello Dr. De Livera,
    I recently found out online about you and Nat Phos 6x so I am not very familiar with the treatment. I have a 2 week old that is presenting all the symptoms of silent reflux, she does not spit up or vomit but I can hear the acid coming up and down her throat which coincides when she cries non-stop. She is also having a lot of hiccups, gas and is uncomfortable after feeding, arches her back and cries a lot, crying increasing at night.
    I am exclusively breastfeeding and have stopped eating dairy, I feed her about 8 times a day (every 3 hours).
    I can see that baby is in pain, pediatrician said it is nothing serious but doesn’t want to diagnose colic or reflux at 2 weeks old.
    Does your treatment work for such a small baby? what would be the dosage?
    Thank you in advance.

        Thanks for your reply doctor. A couple more questions, since I feed my baby 8 times a day and you said to give her 6 tablets max. Should I not giver the tablets during 2 of the daily feedings?
        Also I am trying for my baby to gain weight, she is 2 weeks old and not at her birth weight yet. Is the Nat Phos 6x going to interfere is with the weight gain? I’ve read that this will make you lose a little weight.
        Thank you again.

        • Joe says:

          All I can do is to share with you my experience in treating other babies some of whose mothers were desperate for help to hush their screaming babies suffering from GERD. In many cases the dangerous PPI drugs prescribed only served to exacerbate their baby’s condition and in the majority of cases my therapy aka “Joepathy” would serve to hush their babies within the hour.

          None of these babies, and I may have treated literally hundreds, have been reported as losing any weight. NP6x seems to help the baby by accelerating the digestive process, thereby eliminating GERD and reflux and all mothers have confirmed, some on my Website, that all was well in a few days, or sometimes in hours.

          I cannot understand the reason why your baby has not gained any weight and this is beyond me to help. Suggest you weigh her in a week under my therapy.

          I do not have much experience with NP12x as I only prescribe it in stubborn cases and would prefer that you stay with the 6x.

          The main idea in your case is not to overfeed as you reported a quick let down, and even if you have to exceed 6 tablets in halves, I do not think that this will hurt.

          Keep me posted with baby’s progress.

          • Vanessa says:

            Hello again Doctor,
            First of all I want to thank you for your treatment, it has helped my baby with the silent reflux.
            I wanted to ask you one more thing, I have been giving her the treatment for about a month now, how long do I need to continue with the treatment? Do I start reducing the dose or do I stop completely?
            Thank you.

            • Joe says:

              Glad to learn that my “Joepathy” (Google) has helped your baby.

              You do not need to continue to give it to her if she can do without it as her own digestive system seems to have taken over by now.

              It is best to taper down the dose instead of stopping it abruptly.

              In any case the NP6x is NOT a drug and is very safe in use.

    Hi Mr. Delivera, thank you for your website. My son who is 4 1/2 months old spits up quite often due to reflux. Pediatrician prescribed Zantax but I just feel is too little to be taking this kind of medicine and I would rather cure the root of the problem. Through your blog/website I found out about Nat Phos 6X and started giving it to my son two days ago (just as your default method). He seemed better spitting up alot less and then yesterday spit up came back full on. Sometimes reflux is clear with some milk curds. What do you suggest I do? I know you have mentioned before Nux Vomica or Robinia to re-inforce the Nat Phos 6X.
    Thank you for your time.

    • Joe says:

      Glad to note that you have studied my therapy aka “Joepathy” on my Website and I am happy to note that you have not given baby the Nux Vomica which I have since replaced with Robinia Pseudacacia 30 as the former is potentized Strychnine which I prefer to avoid even in the Homeopathic remedy.

      You may get the Robinia P 30 in the standard pellet pack but you will not use it till we observe how baby responds to the protocol below:

      • Rosa Rodriguez says:

        I will follow your instructions Doctor. I have been doing the half tablet after feeding for about 4 days but I’ll give her your recommended amount. How long should I do the treatment to see an improvement? Thank you again

    My daughter is 3 months old and is suffering badly from reflux, she had bloody stool while nursing so her pediatric gi has her on an elemental formula called elecare- her reflux is no better and she’s in as much discomfort as ever… we tried many medications per her gi doctors suggestions, she is now on nothin because we feel they did more harm than good she now has us adding rice cereal to the bottle which helps a little bit upsets her tummy… we’re looking to try this homeopathic remedy for our babes reflux but are unsure on dosage! Help!

    • Joe says:

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
      Do not give the MMR Vaccine in One shot as there is plenty of evidence on the Web of severe side effects which can result. You are advised to give it in 3 separate shots if you must do so, after baby is 2 years old.

      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.

      “she now has us adding rice cereal to the bottle which helps a little bit upsets her tummy…”

      Do NOT give any cereal to baby as my therapy aka “Joepathy” will settle the problem in a few days.

      • Sarah says:

        Thank you! Waiting on the arrival of the nat phos 6x- we have discontinued the cereal- and she has been medication free for several weeks now as my baby has an incredibly sensitive system, what might I expect from the nat phos? Should I expect a flare in reflux before it gets better, or should it only fix her problem? I am only trying to prepare myself for what may happen and what to expect as normal behavior/reaction

        • Joe says:

          A baby patient like yours usually responds in under 3 feeds which is a little over half day.

          Do not worry about flare ups as Nat Phos 6x is NOT a drug. Look it up on Google.

          Report her response in a 48 hours after you start on my therapy aka “Joepathy”

  355. Sarah says:

    We have been using the tablets for two days and they seem to make my baby more irritatable, she has been having more frequent choking episodes, I forgot to mention she had a dairy allergy and I read the tabs contain dairy, this is probably why baby is having trouble with them, she needs the treatment for her reflux so I’m wondering if maybe giving half a tablet would still benefit her without overwhelming her ? What are your thoughts?

    • Joe says:

      I believe that your baby’s problem may be due to your not following my prescription which I posted on October 9 and expected you follow literally.

      You have also not responded to my post of October 13:
      “Have you read my prescription for Baby GERD?”

      If you wish that I continue to treat her you are requested to list in detail what remedies you are using today with their dosage.

  356. Phil says:

    Dear Dr. De Livera,

    My 6 week old suffers from silent reflux and was prescribed Nat Phos 30x (2 tablets per feeding) by my pediatrician. However, the majority of research I have done says that 1 tab of 6x is the correct dose. Can you please advise if the 30x is ok?

    Thanks!

    • Joe says:

      Since your baby is under the treatment of your physician, who seems to have copied my Nat Phos therapy which I pioneered about 15 years ago, it is best that you consult him/her on the dosage and other data you have referred to in your post.

      I would like to add for the record that it is best not to overdose with Nat Phos 30x at 2 tablets per feed.

  357. Sarah says:

    I give her half a tablet of nat phos 6x before a feed diluted in water/ I then give her the second half immediately after a feed diluted in water- I burp her immediately and she throws up everywhere. I did not exceed 6 tablets in 24 hours

    • Joe says:

      It seems to me that Baby is not responding to the Nat Phos 6x alone and it is time to add Robinia Pseudacacia 30c in the Wet dose to reinforce its action. This remedy will reduce the Hcl acid flow in baby’s stomach and works in a similar manner to the standard PPI drugs like Nexium which are usually prescribed by doctors even though they are aware that they are dangerous.

      You will make it as per instructions below and give half teaspoonful, twice daily.

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Get Robinia P 30c in the standard pellets and insert just 6 pellets into a 500ml bottle of Spring Water.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Shake the bottle hard before you give baby half teaspoonful twice daily.

      You will stop the Robinia as soon as you find that baby is OK but you will continue the Nat Phos for as long as you feel that it is needed. Nat Phos is NOT a drug and is absolutely safe in use for long periods.

      Report progress in 48 hours.

    Hi, I am hoping you could help me as well. My daughter is 25 weeks old tomorrow and weights 7.17 KG. I was exclusively breastfeeding until two weeks ago when I started introducing her goats milk formula (nannycare) as I had slowly but surely run out of milk from the lack of sleep and stress from her reflux. She mainly gets Felix at night from around 6pm. In the day she is usually happy although always arching her back and always wanting to stand and never to lie flat. I feel like her reflux started after her 8 week vaccinations and I deeply regret getting them for her. In the last two weeks I thickened her milk with carobel which she didn’t agree with and got diarroah. As a result she started pushing away her milk and started drinking less and less. I then switched to neocAte formula on Monday in case she has a milk protein allergy(which my gut is telling me no) and she has now completely gone off her milk. She has max 300ML per day and only in her cot, right before a sleep with her comforter on her head. Doctors want her to take omeprazole but I don’t want to give her such strong medication. I’m praying you can help! Shall I give her nat phos? Since she’s only drinking max 3 times a day Can I give it to her after solids as well? She loves her food for the time being although she vomits quite a bit. It’s the only thing I have in my side at the moment. I don’t even know what formula to give her now! Maybe nannycare again of Hipp organic? Thank you so much in advance! Please let me know if you hve anymore questions. Jil

    Hank you so so much for your kind reply. I really appreciate it. As I am running out of breastmilk Can I do the same with nannycare Formula (goatsmilk). I will continue to try and breastfeed however and take nat phos to. My only problem is I could only get nat phos 10. Does the dose change in that case? We currently have colds and she is taking homeopathic pellets for that, so I must stop these or wait until she is better from her cold until I start with the nat phos, or? Many thanks and very best.

    Hello Mr. De Livera,

    My son is 16 weeks, 4 days old and weighs approximately 12.5 pounds. He recently developed silent reflux with occasional spitting up. I read about your therapy and purchased the Nat Phos 6x. I started giving him 1 tablet after feeds yesterday, and he got a total of 5.5 tablets in 24 hours. My son displayed irritability last night and spit up a little this morning. I wanted to check that I am administering the correct dosage. My son is breastfed, but as of the past two weeks he will not drink from a bottle and becomes very fussy and cries when offered one. He also will not nurse for long due to his discomfort from the silent reflux. It is hard for me to tell when he will finish nursing and when to give him the NP tablet. I am going to try to administer the NP mixed in breast milk using a syringe. Your advice and help is greatly appreciated!

    Hello, Mr. De Livera,
    I gave my 7 week old daughter six 1/2 tablet doses of Nat Phos 6x in milk immediately after most feedings. (I breastfeed her 10-12 times in 24 hours to not overload her tummy because I have over active let down of milk) and I did burp her once or twice after each feed. I took 2 tablets x 3 times after meals. It made a HUGE difference in the amount of spit up – now it’s virtually none. But she still has these symptoms – waking up at night coughing up saliva and crying, bad breath and she can only sleep either upright or on an incline with her head and back arched, grunting and squirming when sleeping. What would be your advice from this point?
    Thanks, Nadya

        Hello, again
        I’ve been following your protocol for the last 4 days. It seems like the symptoms are not changing. It’s basically the same for the last 4 days. Yesterday was a really good day for my daughter. (minimal fussiness, good sleep and not much crying). They day before she was very fussy all day and very uncomfortable. Today is going fine, not great just usual symptoms of reflux. What I’m trying to say is that there seem to be not too much improvement. I’ve been giving her Nat Phos and taking it myself. What should I do next, if anything, or should i just continue the protocol for a bit longer? Thank you for your time

        • Joe says:

          You have only used my therapy for just 5 days and it is best that you continue to do so for the next few days as it appears that baby is stabilizing on my therapy and you will be able to stop all medication.

  363. Jen McIntyre says:

    Hi Mr De Livera,

    I really hope you can help my boys out. I have twin boys that were born at 34 weeks. They spent some time in NICU and they recommended we feed them Enfamil Enfacare so that they would put on weight. I was not able to get my milk supply to keep up with their demand so they are only getting BF once a day. They are currently 6 weeks old and recently started getting fussier and fussier after feedings. To the point that my husband and I dread feedings because we know it is going to be rough after wards. After feedings which they are getting 3 ounces every 3 to 4 hours…. they will be calm almost asleep and then they will start crying, arching their backs, sometimes they will spit up. They are burping during and after feedings. One of my boys will have a sour smell to his breath. I am thinking they have some kind of reflux issue. I have tried changing formulas a few times which has made it worse and caused constipation. I don’t want to put them on a prescription acid medication. I really hope you can help. Thanks in advance for any help or advice you can give.

    Feeling desperate, Jen

    Dear Sir,
    I found out about your therapy from the mum, who used it very succesfuly on her baby. I started to use your protocol one week ago and from day one it was a big change in my daughters behaviour. She use to be fussy and in a “bad mood” in the evenings, wouldn’t fall asleep easy, just when carried and rocked. She was having hiccups, sometimes couple of times a day and would spit milk even 2 hours after feeding. She had sour smell from her mouth and sour smelling stools. She is 3.5 months old and exclusively breasfed. Now she cries only when tired and fals asleep in her cot straight away.

    Because of the technical problem I posted unfinished message….sorry about that. I wanted to ask, how long should I continue the treatment. Because I noticed that after few days of the treatment she started to eat more often. Before she was quite regularly eating every 3.5 hours during day time and having 5-6 hours gaps at night. But now she eats at night every 3-4 hours and has periods of eating even every 1.5 hours during the day. During those periods she screams like she would be very hungry, it is impossible to distract her, but then she starts to spit milk very often again. I guess she is overeating. Also she started to wake up at ~6 in the morning moaning and grunting and goes back to sleep only carried and rocked. Could it be that it is too high dose of Nat Phos for her and I should give her only after feedings and maybe even reduce the dose from 6 tablets in total to less? Or maybe I should stop the treatment already? Thank you very much for sharing your method and thank you in advance for any help or advice you can give.

      I noticed that I had repeated my post twice as I was replying your first post when I discovered that another suddenly appeared while I was doing so.

      I agree that she may be overeating and it is up to you to strike a fine balance between her demand for your breast milk and over eating to only reflux it out.

      You are the best judge on using the Nat Phos 6x and you can experiment with giving her just half tablet after every feed and if it works and she is content, you can continue the dosage.

      Feel free to address any problems to me on my Website as I monitor it often as I use a MacBook Pro which shows every message I get on my Website as it comes in.

      • Jurga says:

        Thank you very much for your quick reply. I tried half tablet after feeding dosage, but we started to have difficulties putting her to sleep again, so I went back to initial protocol. Since I started to use your therapy I noticed change not only in my daughters behaviour, but also smell of her stools and breath have changed, her stools are less watery and almost no mucus in it. She is less gassy and last week she had hiccups just once. But she still sometimes has strange episodes, like yesterday evening, when she is spitting up several times digested milk after 1-2 hours after feeding. I am not sure if this is related to reflux? But it doesn’t bother her like before and doesn’t cause hiccups.
        I would like to ask you, how long you usually recommend to continue this treatment and how to know when to stop it and also should I stop it all at once or gradually? Thank you very much in advance.

    Hi again dr. De Livera,

    you helped us when our baby was 3 months old with your therapy for the reflux and it was a miracle worker!
    Everything has been great, our baby is perfectly healthy and happy.. we started with a solid food and she loves to eat.. (baby paleo) and i’m still breastfeeding.. but when i introduced oatmeal she became constipated.. she still has a bowel movement but she has hard dry stool that’s difficult to pass.. i’m giving her just prunes, pears, figs, prunes juice, and a little coconut and olive oil for the last 10 days but nothing has changed yet.
    Do you have a therapy for that?
    Thank you for your help,
    Andrea

    • Joe says:

      I checked back to your first post on my Website on April 3 when baby was just 11 weeks:
      “our baby girl is 11 weeks old, she’s sleeping good and she’s a happy baby but after breastfeeding she started arching a few days ago, she’s uncomfortable after eating, she has gases and hiccups and spit a little.
      I’m breastfeeding, I’m not eating dairy, wheat, gluten..
      We tried with biogaya probiotic drops but it’s still the same.
      I read a lot and I ordered Nat Phos 6X. I understood that baby should take 1 tablet after breastfeeding – max 6 per day.. but I would like to know should I take one tablet after eating too?
      Thank you for your help, it means a lot!”

      Glad to learn that she is progressing nicely and that you have started her on solids and that “when i introduced oatmeal she became constipated.. ” The remedy seems obvious and you must not feed her oatmeal.

      Nat Phos 6x is a mild laxative and it may help. You must also give her more liquids and water is indicated.

    Thank you Dr.!
    I have a great news! She’s not constipated anymore:)
    We were eating just prunes, pears, figs and a prunes juice and biogaia drops and it worked!
    Thank you for your help,
    Andrea

    • Joe says:

      I am not sure that I was able to help her but thanks all the same for sharing the good news with me.

      Remember that babies will not always oblige daily as they may not do a poo for up 5 days. Massage of the abdomen helps and a little water is essential to keep her hydrated when you stop feeding her your breast milk.

      Did you give her any Nat Phos 6x in addition to the fruits you listed?
      And remember to go easy on the fruits till she is older.

  369. Jurga says:

    Thank you very much for your quick reply. I tried half tablet after feeding dosage, but we started to have difficulties putting her to sleep again, so I went back to initial protocol. Since I started to use your therapy I noticed change not only in my daughters behaviour, but also smell of her stools and breath have changed, her stools are less watery and almost no mucus in it. She is less gassy and last week she had hiccups just once. But she still sometimes has strange episodes, like yesterday evening, when she is spitting up several times digested milk after 1-2 hours after feeding. I am not sure if this is related to reflux? But it doesn’t bother her like before and doesn’t cause hiccups.
    I would like to ask you, how long you usually recommend to continue this treatment and how to know when to stop it and also should I stop it all at once or gradually? Thank you very much in advance.

    • Joe says:

      It seems to me that Baby is not responding to the Nat Phos 6x alone and it is time to add Robinia Pseudacacia 30c in the Wet dose to reinforce its action. This remedy will reduce the Hcl acid flow in baby’s stomach and works in a similar manner to the standard PPI drugs like Nexium which are usually prescribed by doctors even though they are aware that they are dangerous.

      You will make it as per instructions below and give half teaspoonful, twice daily.

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Get Robinia P 30c in the standard pellets and insert just 6 pellets into a 500ml bottle of Spring Water.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Shake the bottle hard before you give baby half teaspoonful twice daily.

      You will stop the Robinia as soon as you find that baby is OK but you will continue the Nat Phos for as long as you feel that it is needed. Nat Phos is NOT a drug and is absolutely safe in use for long periods.

      Report progress in 48 hours.

      Nat Phos 6x is NOT the equivalent of a PPI drug which doctors prescribe for both baby and adult patients in spite of it being considered as dangerous in the long run for the patient.

      You may stop my therapy anytime you wish to when you find that baby can do without it.

  370. Jurga says:

    Hello dr. De Livera,
    I started to give my daughter Robinia Pseudacacia 30c two days ago (on Friday afternoon) haven’t noticed any big changes so far. We still have some issues at night. Friday night she woke up grunting several times, but everytime was falling asleep straightaway when held and rocked. Saturday night wanted to feed every 3 hours and last evening was difficult to put her to sleep, she falls asleep, but then wakes up after 10 min and starts to moan lifting her head like wanting to sit up. A bit of just plane warm water and warm water with Chamomilla3x

  371. Jurga says:

    Sorry, again my phone restarted the page and unfinished text was sent.
    So warm water and water with Chamomilla 3x helped two times, but third time I had to hold her upright until she was deeply asleep.
    Her poo still has sour smell sometimes, but in general is a big improvement since I started the treatment with Nat Phos.
    Should I continue giving Robinia Pseudacacia 30c? Thank you very much for your help.

    • Joe says:

      A few babies I have treated have been like yours but they have all responded in a few days to my therapy. It takes a little time before their own digestive systems are able to cope and you can consider yourself as being fortunate that you located my Website as other homeopaths do not use Nat Phos 6x and prescribe the standard remedies prescribed in the text books. I too used them many years ago but when I discovered that the remedies I discovered were more effective, I stayed with them.

      You are invited to do a search on my Website under Baby GERD to read the accounts of mothers who were desperate to feed their babies and eventually succeeded in a few weeks to do so using my “Joepathy.”

      You will continue to use the therapy I prescribed as there is ample evidence that it works

  372. Alicia Mitchell says:

    Dr. De livera,

    I spent hours upon hours researching for a more natural ways to cure silent reflux. My baby boy had his 1 month check up I explained to my Dr how I thought he might have colic. He has these episodes were he squirms, clinches his fist, arches his back, and cries very often through out the day. It’s so sad I don’t know what to do to help him. He doesn’t spit up much but he get hiccups randomly and sounds congested all the time. I’ve given him gripe water, tummy calm, gas drops, but nothing was working. My Dr told me it could be silent reflux instead of Colic and immediately prescribed me Zantac. I was a little skeptical because she didn’t run any tests or anything but she wants him to take medicine so soon. I feed him 3.5 oz every 4hrs. I was directed to this page from another moms blog who used your cure. I read mostly every response and answer trying to figure out what’s best for my son. He is breastfed and supplement with formula (good start gentle) more formula than breastmilk. I see some of your methods have changed over the years. You use to prescribe Nat Phos 6x and Nux Vimica 30c if Nat Phos didn’t work alone. And you suggested a half tablet immediately after feedings. . Now you prescribe half a tablet before feedings and the other half after and suggest Robinia P 30c if Nat Phos 6x doesn’t work alone. I’m trying to figure what’s a good method to start off with. I know these tablets are natural and they won’t cause any harm. I started him on the tablets today giving him a half a tablet after each feeding not exceeding 6 tablets a day, which would be three whole tablets. I’ll see how that works I guess. Also I see you say don’t vaccinate before 2 yrs of age. He got a Hep B shot at his 1month check up. I’m terrified of vaccination period. Bt felt the Hep B wouldn’t cause harm but that night he struck a fever and had some of the worse grunting episodes ever. Now I’m scared to get him anymore shots. Please help me Dr.

    • Joe says:

      All your questions have been answered in my default prescription copied below and I am glad to note that you will NOT vaccinate baby right now. This is just another racket that doctors perpetrate to ensure their revenue. Can you imagine how a baby can be exposed to Hepatitis, Measles Mumps and Rubella when they are invariably at home?

      The dosage of Nat Phos 6x is half tablet given before and the balance after a feed. Forget the Robinia and never give the Nux Vomica as although it is very effective, it is potentized Strychnine.

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
      Do not give the MMR Vaccine in One shot as there is plenty of evidence on the Web of severe side effects which can result. You are advised to give it in 3 separate shots if you must do so, after baby is 2 years old.

      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.

      I am listing some remedies which I have prescribed in the past to increase lactation which you may like to try out one after the other and all in the Wet dose taken twice daily.

      URTICA URENS 6C
      HAMAMELIS 6C
      ARNICA 6C

      Also drink plenty of water.

      • Alicia Mitchell says:

        Thank You Dr for your response. I started him out on half a tablet immediately after feeds didn’t see much progress. Today I will start doing 1 half before and the balance half after. Hopefully the results will better. Took him to the hospital yesterday because he was extremely fussy and uncomfortable all day. Wanted to make sure he was having a bad reaction to the Hep B shot. They took x rays and ran some test. It is confirmed he has silent reflux and some trapped gas (colic) will this remedy help with colic as well? I will start the remedies for lactation asap! I’ve been trying to increase supply for a while. I want to strictly breastfeed and get off formula completely! It’s caused so many problems…

        • Alicia Mitchell says:

          So it’s Hamamelis Virginiana 6c
          And Arnica Montana 6c … correct ?

          • Alicia Mitchell says:

            End of the second day on Nat Phos 6x. Do not see any difference.
            He sounds like he’s choking more and losing his breath. 🙁 I’m Not sleeping at this point trying to monitor him throughout the night. I will continue Nat Phos 6x. Don’t know why it’s not working, He never been on any harsh medication. Thinking about switching his formula. We’ll see how day three goes…

            • Alicia Mitchell says:

              Dr. De Livera,

              It’s been a couple of days, don’t think my son is responding to Nat Phos 6x well. There was 1 or 2 good days but for the most part he’s still in the same shape. Is there anything else I can do? Need your help. Tired of seeing him in pain.

              Thanks Dr.

    Hi!

    My son is 7 weeks old, 14 lbs (he eats to soothe himself) and has recently been diagnosed with silent reflux. We just started Zantac because putting him (And me) on a dairy free diet with Allen probiotic supplements have not helped. I breastfeed And supplement with formula as i do not produce enough. I have read your “joe therapy” and planned to start following it but if he is bottle fed, can i Put the one tablet in his 4 oz formula bottle? Or do i need to spilt up the 4 oz to do half a tablet in one oz, 2 oz without the tablet and then another ounce with the other half of the tablet? If breastfeed him how much formula should i dissolve the tablet in prior and after feedings? Thank you!!

    • Joe says:

      Many mothers have informed me that Zantac and other PPI drugs prescribed by doctors have been found to be effective for a few days but that they make baby’s reflux even worse in a few days. When the doctor is consulted again,the standard advice is to increase the dosage which makes the situation even worse, till the mother in desperation discovers my Website and contacts me, like you have just done.

      I note that you wish to dissolve the tablet of Nat Phos 6x in your breast milk but this is not always convenient and you can divide a tablet into halves of which you will give one half dissolved in either your milk or a drop of water which you can then insert on baby’s tongue. You will not give it without dissolving for fear of baby choking.

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      Babies do not always do a poo daily. Some babies can go up to 5 days to do so. A gentle massage of her abdomen after every feed in a clockwise direction usually stimulates evacuation.

      • Christa says:

        Thank you for the quick response! Can i dissolve it into formula and feed thru a bottle or should it be spoon fed?

        • Christa says:

          Oh, one more question! He and i are taking probiotics, should we stop that also?

        • Joe says:

          Mothers have reported that the taste of the tablet makes feeding more difficult.

          You may continue the Probiotic but this is not of any use.

          • Christa says:

            If i find my baby will drink the milk can i dissolve yhe tablet in his bottle?

            • Joe says:

              Yes of course, you may do so.

              If you do succeed, I would appreciate if you will let me know.

              • Christa says:

                He took the bottle with the tablet in it like a champ! Still waiting to see how he does with this new treatment. No change yet, but only gave him 3 tablets.

                • Joe says:

                  You are very fortunate that baby did not reject the foreign taste in the milk.

                  Let us hope that he will continue to do so in the future for a few weeks more when his digestion should stabilize.

                  • Christa says:

                    We are not having any luck with just the tablets, he is miserable. We ordered the other supplement but it won’t be in until the 20th. Can we give him Zantac and the Nat Phos 6x tablets??

                    • Joe says:

                      Why don’t you go back to my original prescription and follow it literally by giving half tablet before and the balance after a feed dissolved in milk? This may make the difference.

                      Zantac has proved to be the cause of further problems according to many mothers who were prescribed it by the pediatrician and always discarded by them.

                      Be patient and continue the NP6x till you get the Robinia Pseudacacia 30c.
                      You can help baby by gently massaging the abdomen in a clockwise direction immediately after a feed to promote peristalsis.

    Dear Dr,
    Thanks for you prompt reply.
    In fact, my baby has been already examined by a pediatrician and we did an X ray test to him, and it is revealed that he has Reflux, the Doctor prescribed some kind of Maalox syrup, but since we noticed that it’s not effective we stopped giving it to him.
    now I will try to get Hylands Nat Phos 6x from UK in order to follow your prescription.
    Thanks
    Mohamed

    My child is having lots of acid reflux / irregular bowl movements. It is the worst at night and when he feeds off of the breast vs. bottle. I have been reading up on this through different posts. He is 4 months and 17 lbs. I was wondering if he should take a whole tablet or just half dissolved in his breastmilk. and i need to do that after each time he eats? or just through the night when its the worst?

    • Joe says:

      Please follow my prescription literally.

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

      Babies do not always do a poo daily. Some babies can go up to 5 days to do so. A gentle massage of her abdomen after every feed in a clockwise direction usually stimulates evacuation.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
      Do not give the MMR Vaccine in One shot as there is plenty of evidence on the Web of severe side effects which can result. You are advised to give it in 3 separate shots if you must do so, after baby is 2 years old.

      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.

  380. Nathan James says:

    Hello,

    Just want to clarify on the prescription you use for Nat Phos 6x. You are saying give half a tablet before each feed and half a tablet after each feed correct? Not to exceed 6 whole tablets in 24 hours correct?

  381. Nathan James says:

    Ok great. Our son is only one month old. Is there an age limit on this protocol?

    • Joe says:

      I was not thinking of his age when prescribing and you will have to use your discretion to reduce the Nat Phos 6x to suit his age. You may give him quarter tablet instead of half.

      The great advantage of using NP6x is that it is very safe in use and it is in your hands to use it judiciously.

  382. Corina says:

    Hello Doctor,
    My 4-month-old has had silent reflux, hiccups, and slight vomiting since he was about 3 weeks old. I thought it was a mild case so only tried keeping him upright at least 30 minutes after each feed. About 1 month ago, it started to get bad overnight. Right now he is waking up multiple times after each feed. I am hardly getting any sleep. His holistic pediatrician recommended 1 tablet Nat Phos 6x before each feed, which I have been doing for the past 24 hours. I see no improvement. I notice your protocol says not to exceed 6 tabs in one day. He got 8 tabs in past day. Will this be a problem? Should I revert to the 6 tabs max you suggest or? i read that sometimes it worsens the first few days after starting treatment. Have you found that to be the case? I will also start taking the treatment as suggested in your protocol. Thank you!

    • Joe says:

      Glad to learn that other physicians have discovered that my Nat Phos 6x therapy is worthy of replicating to their own patients. This was the reason why I at age 88, established my Website to enable me to share my therapy which the classical homeopathic community derisively labelled as “Joepathy”, which term surprises even me with over 54000 hits today, each being a case I have treated.

      I am confident that your 4 month old baby will soon be OK and I believe that the reason he has not done so up to now is because you have given him a full tablet of Nat Phos 6x before a feed. You will read from my prescription below that I recommend half tablet before and the balance after a feed. This protocol was formulated a few years ago after I did some research with mothers like you, whose babies were not responding the whole tablet. You may exceed 6 tablets but do not push it over 8 in 24 hours.

                      Hi dr. It’s still not working. Any recommendations?

                    • Joe says:

                      Since baby is not responding to the Nat Phos alone you will add You will add Robinia Pseudacacia 30c in the Wet dose twice daily in the morning and in the evening. This remedy will hopefully solve your baby’s problem as it acts in a similar manner to the PPI drugs doctors prescribe to reduce the flow of Hcl Acid into the stomach.
                      You will continue to give her the Nat Phos as usual.

                      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

                      Order the remedy in the Ethanol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
                      Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
                      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
                      Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you give baby a teaspoonful of the remedy twice daily.

                      If you cannot get the Liquid dilution you may use the standard Pellets available. You will use 6 pelletsin a 500ml bottle of water.

                    • Rose says:

                      Hi. All stores only sell the 200c is that ok?

                    • Joe says:

                      I have prescribed for your baby’s chronic GERD and you MUST follow my prescription precisely.

                      You will NOT substitute the 200c potency for the 30c prescribed.

  385. Rose says:

    Hi Dr. what the dose I give before and after feeds for baby from this liquid? is it as effective?

    • Joe says:

      You may give 3ml or half teaspoonful and you will continue to give the Nat Phos 6x which is the main remedy for Baby GERD.

  386. Carey says:

    Hi,
    I’ve been searching the internet relentlessly to try and help my 7 month old son and have encountered multiple moms discussing your therapy as a miracle for their babies. I’ve read what they have done but I wanted to ask you directly before I start anything since he is slightly more complicated than a straightforward reflux case. He is currently being treated for reflux and was prescribed both Pepcid and Prilosec. I’d never give him two medications at a time and didn’t want to use any but I’d already tried a homeopathic remedy prescribed by a nurse practitioner that didn’t help. She gave me nux vomica 6c pellets. I was supposed to give him two pellets once a day mixed with breast milk. We tried the Pepcid for two weeks but didn’t see any improvements and the Prilosec made things so much worse.

    He’s also being treated for chronic explosive bowel movements. He will go several days without having a bm and then when he does it goes everywhere. I no longer eat dairy or gluten which has helped a little with the explosiveness but he still does not go regularly, he cries from gas pain and when he does go, it still is in huge quantities and can be explosive.

    The complexity of his problems increases significantly because he has severe sensory processing issues. He is sensitive to almost all input and this causes him to struggle with many daily tasks, sleep being one of the main ones. His occupational therapist said he is one, if not the most severe case she’s worked with in her forty plus years. Everything throws his system into overload including the medications we’ve tried. The doctors think I’m crazy but anytime he’s had a vaccine(which has only been twice and now will not be receiving any until he’s much older, if at all) or drug, it makes his sensory issues so much worse. I’m trying to find a way to help his reflux, and elimination issues without making his sensory issues even more severe. Would your standard protocol work for him or is there something different I should do? If you need any more information, I will happily provide it, I just wanted to respect your time if the sensory piece won’t make a difference as to how I should proceed.

    Thank you for taking the time to read my message.

    Warmly,
    Carey

    Hello Joe
    I have a 10 week old baby girl that I have self diagnosed her with silent acid reflux! I went to our family doctor with the baby numerous times, but every time they would tell me that everything is fine with my daughter, but I just know my instincts…! Few weeks after she was born she started to get fussy, and refusing breast, so I started introducing bottle thinking maybe that would help. It didn’t! She doesn’t like the bottle even more than the breast! I noticed few symptoms along the way,…
    – she wasn’t gaining enough weight
    – fussy when placed on her back, she only wanted to be in up right position.
    – acidic breath
    – she vomited forcefully twice
    – she spits up clear liquid after a nap, or anytime I would Place her flat on her back
    – she would have hiccups almost 10 times a day
    – she has stuffy nose most of the time
    – she doesn’t sleep well
    – also after her rotavirus vaccine two weeks ago she started to have issues with pooping! So I introduced to her diet fennel tea from time to time and it seems to help her bowel movement.
    Noticing all those symptoms I started my research., and I have made some changes for her:
    – she sleeps on a wedge in her crib or a buppy pillow
    – I feed her smaller amounts of breast milk
    – I hold her in upright position after each feeding
    – I give her probiotics ( RAW kids probiotics 5billion)
    – I give her cod liver oil
    With all that she still refuses to breastfeed and bottle most of the time, and she’s fussy and uncomfortable!
    I have found your webpage through someone else’s page and I’m really hoping you can help!!! Please !
    My husband is on his way to the store to buy product you recommend. I would like to know what dosage to use and if I should use anything else? Should I stop giving her probiotics and cod oil?

        Thank you very much for your quick response, I appreciate it! I’m so grateful there are still amazing people in the world who are willing to help others in need!

        • Joe says:

          Be assured that no offence was taken. It is just that at my age of almost 89 and our culture here in Sri Lanka we are more conservative than you are in the US.

          Feel free to count on my Joepathy to help you in the future.

    I do have few questions, if you don’t mind answering them?
    Do you think I should stop giving my daughter probiotics and cod liver oil, when starting your program?
    Also, if taking Nat Phos 6x makes me loose weight, would it also affect my baby’s weight? She already has issues gaining weight and I am a bit worried about that.
    Would you recommend giving my daughter only one dose of half tablet after meal 6times a day, since she’s only 10 weeks old? Or should I give it to her directly as the protocol says?

    I just wanted to let you know that I truly appreciate your time, and I wanted to say thank you for all your help!

    • Joe says:

      It is best to stop all other medication including probiotics and cod liver oil when you start on my therapy.

      Nat Phos 6x has never reduced baby’s weight in the case of literally hundreds of mothers who have recorded their babies cases on my Website which you are invited to read.

      “Would you recommed giving my daughter only one dose of half tablet after meal 6times a day, since she’s only 10 weeks old? Or should I give it to her directly as the protocol says?

      You can observe her response using your way and if it is sufficient you do not have to give it as prescribed.

      It gives me some satisfaction to help suffering humanity especially babies which I have always done without any compensation and I appreciate your gratitude.

    Hi Joe
    My wife and I have been following your post here for some time now.
    Our little one is 8months now and and we have been dealing with acid reflux (GERD) since she was 2months old.
    We have seen 2 specialist tried 5 different types of formula and Tried everything in between nothing has worked. She’s been a formula only baby as mom was not able to produce milk.
    She Would would cry, arch back, pull and stretch her arms after every feed. And spit up like a fountain. Doctors did tests found nothing wrong but after our constant visits we were prescribed Prevacid and she’s been on it Since dec 2017. Didnt really help. We were at ends nothing worked nore helped.

    I will now thank you so much as we followed your nats pho 6
    Direction. At first we were hesitant but we have tried everything.
    We started 1 week ago. First few days we notice her condition worsen as we read that it may happen. Kepted at it now we have noticed a big change. Although she does have her moments still it’s a lot more manageable.

    My question if you don’t mind is. We been on it for 10days now. The first 7 day were 1 after every feeding not exceeding 6 for day. After day 7 we still noticed some reflux so we been still giving her the pill but maybe only 2-3 for the day. Can we continue to do soo as long as we need? Or will she become Dependent of the pill?

    Also she still having trouble sleeping though the night.
    We live in Canada and I ordere the nux vomica 30x tablets
    As I’m not able to find liquid form to ship here. Can we still use this when it comes to help aid with sleeping though the night with the nats pho?
    Thank you.

    • Joe says:

      “We live in Canada and I ordere the nux vomica 30x tablets”

      DO NOT GIVE BABY THESE TABLETS AS THEY CAN CAUSE SERIOUS HARM. I am glad that you posted on my Website today as I am in time to prevent it.

      You visited my Website over 2 weeks ago but you do not appear to have noted the remedies prescribed accurately and have given your baby some variation of those prescribed.

      You refer to “nats pho 6”. There is no remedy in Homeopathy by that name and potency. This should read Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and I have prescribed it for hundreds of babies but not 1 tablet after a feed. It is given in halves, before and after a feed. It is very safe in use unlike the drugs like Prevacid, Nexium, Zantac and other PPI drugs which the FDA have ruled as dangerous when used for some time by adults. They are far more dangerous for babies.

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

      Babies do not always do a poo daily. Some babies can go up to 5 days to do so. A gentle massage of her abdomen after every feed in a clockwise direction usually stimulates evacuation.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
      Do not give the MMR Vaccine in One shot as there is plenty of evidence on the Web of severe side effects which can result. You are advised to give it in 3 separate shots if you must do so, after baby is 2 years old.

      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.

      I noticed that you have addressed me by my given name, Joe.

      I do not permit being addressed by name on my website, as the least I can expect from you is that you show some respect in doing so.

      Here in Sri Lanka where I live, we have a modicum of respect for age.

      I am over 88.

      • Jason says:

        Sorry.
        My mistake.
        The pill we have been giving her is nat phos 6x.
        We have ordered Nux vomica 30C but in tablet form that we have not received yet.

        Can I continue to give her Nat Phos 6x as she needs past the 7-10th day?

        Is nux vomica 30c tablet is okay to use with Nat Phos 6x? I believe it’s 4 nux vomica 30c tablets dissolve into 30ml water and shake well before giving it to her. 1 teaspoon twice a day?

        Thank you for your help.

        • Joe says:

          You are consulting me for your baby’s GERD but you seem intent on prescribing remedies you have borrowed from my therapy which I prescribed many years ago. You will have to decide whether you wish to continue prescribing for your baby yourself or in the alternative you will abide by my prescription below.

          I must inform you that I do not advocate the use of Nux Vomica 30c today as it is the base of Strychnine and in the 6x potency you referred to in your last post, it can be considered DANGEROUS for both babies and adults.

          I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

  390. Jason says:

    Hello SIR
    It’s been a few days now that we have continued to give our little one nat pho6x.
    It seems that her fussyness and arching of her back, crying and generally comfortable after feeds has come back. Even when given her half pill before feeding and half after her feed.
    Could you recommended us try anything else at this point?

    • Joe says:

      It seems to me that Baby is not responding to the Nat Phos 6x alone and it is time to add Robinia Pseudacacia 30c in the Wet dose to reinforce its action. This remedy will reduce the Hcl acid flow in baby’s stomach and works in a similar manner to the standard PPI drugs like Nexium which are usually prescribed by doctors even though they are aware that they are dangerous.

      You will make it as per instructions below and give half teaspoonful, twice daily.

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Get Robinia P 30c in the standard pellets and insert just 6 pellets into a 500ml bottle of Spring Water.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Shake the bottle hard before you give baby half teaspoonful twice daily.

      You will stop the Robinia as soon as you find that baby is OK but you will continue the Nat Phos for as long as you feel that it is needed. Nat Phos is NOT a drug and is absolutely safe in use for long periods.

      Report progress in 48 hours.

    Thank you
    Shipping will take a few days
    I will report back once we start.

    Hello doctor,

    My son is 3 months old, he was refusing the breast and limiting the feeds from his 2 month age.I had to make him sleep and feed him. He is not gainning weight too..Lactation consultant told me he should see a GI. Then he is on zantac. 9ml 3 times aday.. I wanted to give him nat phos 6x .. I gave him half with breast milk . He slept so deep like he is unconscious. He is becoming so drowsy… should i discontinue zantac. Pls advice …

  393. Swathi says:

    Thank u for your reply doctor. I gave him half after each feed and feedinv him every 2 hours. My question is ” he nurses more than 6 times every 24 hours then how can i give him the doses before and after every feed as you said I shouldn’t exceed 6 tablets in 24 hours. Pls guide me.

    Also he is so drowsy and dull after I started the dose. He is a very active baby otherwise. Is the medicine making him drowsy..

    • Joe says:

      You may go up to 8 tablets in halves for the moment but you will try to restrict him to 6 by giving him half tablet after a feed as the idea is to help his stomach to take over eventually without any medicine.

      I cannot understand the drowsiness as no mother has reported this in the past. Nat Phos 6x is not a drug and I have prescribed it for around 20 years with remarkable success. Report his response in a few days and stop it and report immediately if it is causing any distress.

      • Swathi says:

        Thank you for the reply doctor. I have couple of questions.
        1. Can I take probiotics and prenatal vitamins?
        2. Can I give my baby probiotics?
        3. I am on elemination diet trying to find which is making him like this.
        4. Do I need to give him half before the feed too?

        • Joe says:

          You may take anything but not baby till we overcome his GERD.
          You may give him half tablet after a feed and if the half is sufficient, you need not give the half tab before a feed.

          • Swathi says:

            Thank u for your extended help.. I can see some improvement in my baby .. split up has been reduced. He is not refusing the breast any more. He is sleeping at a streach 3 hours. I have some questions kindly guide me in these situations
            1. I feed him once in 3 hours and as soon as he finished one side I feel he is full and give him 1/2 dose with milk and burp him. But I have noticed he is still hungry after the 1/2 dose. So should I feed him and give him another half?
            2. Some times he is not burping.
            3 some times he burps before I give him the tablet and after I give him the tablet he will have wet burps.
            4. Can I put the tablet under his tongue to dissolve?
            5. Kindly tell me way to do if he is still hungry after the dose.?

            • Joe says:

              Your baby has come a long way since you first consulted me just 2 days ago when you were giving him Zantac which would have affected him in later life as it is a PPI drug (Google) and is reckoned to be dangerous for adults by the FDA. Its effects on babies is best left to the imagination.

              Baby is now comfortable and is not spitting up any more and you now wish to increase the feeding pattern but I would prefer that you do not rush it as this can also be counter productive and may promote spitting. You can however shorten the time between feeds as long as he is comfortable.

              You will NOT put a dry tablet under his tongue as he can choke on it.

              • FSwathi says:

                Yes doctor. . Wat u said is correct when I give him more thinking that he is hungry.. He spat up more. More curd.
                So do I need to feed him little at a time but he looks unsettled when I give him less.. guide me pls

                Also how about the night feeds.. can i feed him in sleep? How to give him the dose? He asks for the milk while being asleep ( i used to sleep feed him whn he was refusing breast )

                I also noticed he is breathing hard while swallowing. He is gulping and choking.sometimes coughing. Guide me doctor on this . Is this difficulty related to any other abnormality, ? Do I need to see any specialist. I didnot notice it till now as He was dreaming feeding lying sideways.
                Thank u for your support. U are God sent to me..

                • Joe says:

                  I can see that you have not read my prescription for baby GERD as all your questions have been already answered in it. I have done my part in prescribing for your baby and now it is up to you.

                  I am over 88 years old and cannot spare the time to answer all your questions individually as I expect the patient to read and understand my therapy aka “Joepathy” (Google)

                  • Swathi says:

                      You will continue the therapy prescribed and not overfeed.

  394. Misty says:

    Will nat pho 6x work on adults? My mother is having bad acid reflux and does not want to take otc meds anymore. She is trying to fight this naturally. Please help.

    • Joe says:

      THERAPY GERD

      It is very likely that you suffer from Hyperacidity or Gastritis, aka GERD (Gastro Esophagal Reflux Disease) and I shall copy my default therapy that has helped hundreds of patients to overcome this disease for which doctors usually prescribe PPI (Proton Pump Inhibitor) drugs which are dangerous and can cause many other more serious problem when used in the long term.

      You will hopefully discover that my therapy aka “Joepathy” will help you within 24 hours after you have taken your first dose after a meal.

      The remedies you will order are as follows:

      Nat Phos 6x dose 2-4 tablets taken immediately after each of 3 meals.
      This remedy accelerates the passage of food down the gut and prevents the formation of acid which would otherwise reflux causing GERD.

      Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily.
      This remedy works to repair the damaged Esophagus which has metastasised to resemble the gut to deal with the Hcl refluxed into it causing severe distress. Arnica works with the Nat Phos to speedily cure the problem.

      You can also take a PROBIOTIC like Bifilac daily. A Probiotic will help by changing the balance of the Bacteria in the gut and will contribute to your cure and help to ensure that your problem does not recur. After your problem with GERD is stabilised you can take the Arnica in the Wet dose nightly before bed for life. You do not need to take Nat Phos daily but you will keep a stock to be used whenever you feel uncomfortable after a meal when you will take 2-3 tablets as necessary.

      Please observe the following simple rules:

      Do not eat large meals. Eat small meals but more often if you feel hungry. Do not drink more that a few sips of water after your meals. This is to prevent the further dilution of your gastric juice which can then reflux into your Esophagus which results in GERD.

      It is important that you do not go to bed for at least 2 hours after dinner as food will take about this time to digest and it is best to stay awake and upright to enable your food to digest before going to bed.

      No fatty food, alcohol, coffee, preserved meats like sausages, ham, bacon as they contain Saltpeter which will antidote the remedies listed immediately.

      If you suffer from a stomach ache or you feel your stomach puffing up before a meal during the day between meals, this is usually due to hunger pains, caused by your gastric juices attacking the inner lining and the wall of your stomach. The simple remedy is to eat some food like a biscuit or a banana between meals to keep the gastric juice away from digesting the stomach wall which results in a stomach ache which in some cases can be acute.

      You must drink at least 3 liters of liquids, preferably water daily and you must also exercise for at least half hour daily. It is important to sweat it out as this is all part of my therapy to overcome GERD.

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Order the remedy in a 5ml Liquid Alcohol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
      Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
      Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done every time before sipping a capful of the bottle twice daily.

      It is understood that the patient will stop all other drugs which s/he may be taking for this ailment.
      Do not use Coffee, Cola beverages, preserved foods like sausages, ham and bacon as they contain Saltpeter.

    Doctor
    He is not passing urine and stools and crying . His vomiting curds is not there now.

    • Joe says:

      Why do you still refuse to read my prescription?

      You will read the section where I have stated that babies do NOT pass a stool daily as they assimilate the milk to grow.

      “Babies do not always do a poo daily. Some babies can go up to 5 days to do so. A gentle massage of her abdomen after every feed in a clockwise direction usually stimulates evacuation.”

      He will also pee in a few hours.

      • Swathi says:

        Me ,my son and our whole family is so greatful to u sit for your help to our little one.
        Sir today morning he pooped which is green slymy which he did with more discomfort and cried while pooping.I noticed red ring around his anus that is making him scream while passing stool. Kindly advice.
        (I have stopped having dairy,soy,eggs,wheat).
        Hope this report helps u to advice us more

        • Joe says:

          The red ring is due to some local irritation and you can use a mild antiseptic suitably diluted in water over it, to stop any infection due to the hard stool.

          • Swathi says:

            Thank u a ton ..

            Just an update pls advice his urine is smelling strong and yellow..

              In the result, time is precious to me.

              I have patiently responded to all your previous posts and have stabilized your baby’s GERD in a manner that very few other Homeopaths would have succeeded in doing.

              Please stop posting baby’s progress every few hours as I cannot waste my time to read and respond to your posts.

      Babies do not always do a poo daily. Some babies can go up to 5 days to do so. A gentle massage of her abdomen after every feed in a clockwise direction usually stimulates evacuation.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
      Do not give the MMR Vaccine in One shot as there is plenty of evidence on the Web of severe side effects which can result. You are advised to give it in 3 separate shots if you must do so, after baby is 2 years old.

      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.

      You may increase the Nat Phos 6x up to 8 tablets daily given in halves.

    Hello sir
    I have a 6 month old baby boy.when he was 3 months old he was diagnosed with silent reflux. We followed your prescription and he is doing great. We have also delayed his 4th month vaccination and solids as per ur prescription
    I have some questions need your advice
    My son is constantly hungry and wakes up every 1:45 mind for miilk in night and cried when we eat anything before him. Kindly advice if it is ok to introduce semisolids to him. If it is ok then what type of foods to give.

    • Joe says:

      Glad to learn that you have copied my prescription for baby GERD and have already given him Nat Phos 6x

      It will be in baby’s interest that you do not give him solids just now if you wish to not precipitate a repeat of the GERD as he is still 6 months. You may however slowly test his response by introducing solids for babies by giving a teaspoon full with his milk.

      I cannot identify for you the baby solid as I live in Sri Lanka and do not even know where you live and what baby foods are available in your city.

      • Raja says:

        Thanks a lot for your response. We are from India but currently living in United state.we eat all indian foods. I would like to know if I can give him some mashed basmati rice and moongdal.some cooked fruits.
        When wegave him pear puree ( store bought ) he really got his reflux back. He is now suffering from cold cough.

        • Joe says:

          I am not a dietician and cannot therefore advise you on a suitable baby solid food. Please ask a doctor to advise you.

          I do not advise you to “give him some mashed basmati rice and moongdal.some cooked fruits.” These are NOT suitable for a baby at 6 months. It is also very likely that his cold and cough are responsible.

          The fact that “When wegave him pear puree ( store bought ) he really got his reflux back” does not mean that baby cannot eat it. It is very likely that you gave him too much as the transition from milk to solids must be done gradually to enable his stomach to get used to solids.

    Dear Dr. Delivera

    I came across your website from another mother who took your advice and cured their little one’s ailment.

    Could I please ask your recommendation for a 7.5 week old suffering from silent reflux and extreme gassiness. She is unhappy predominately most of the day and especially after feeds and never fully relaxed due to the pain. She weighs 11lbs and Ian putting on weight fine. She is formula fed and currently on comfort milk and using gaviscon – to no avail.

    Thank you so much for your time and advice.

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

    Do you have any advice for older children- particularly a 16 year old? My son was diagnosed with severe GERD at 4 weeks of age over 16 years ago. I was told at the time that he only had a 10% chance of outgrowing that specific type of GERD by the time he was 1 year old (which he did outgrow), but that there was a chance it could come back when he was older. It has, indeed, come back. He has been on 2 different PPI meds (at different times) for almost 2 years. Would this supplement help (and possibly fix) his reflux? Thank you for your help!

    • Joe says:

      I am indeed very surprised that your son has suffered from the ravages of severe GERD since he was 4 weeks old when you were “told at the time that he only had a 10% chance of outgrowing that specific type of GERD by the time he was 1 year old (which he did outgrow), but that there was a chance it could come back when he was older. It has, indeed, come back. “

      It is true that he cannot be cured by the dangerous PPI drugs and it would be interesting to observe how long my default therapy will take to help CURE him.
      I shall copy my therapy below:

      THERAPY GERD

      I shall copy my default therapy that has helped hundreds of patients to overcome this disease for which doctors usually prescribe PPI (Proton Pump Inhibitor) drugs which are dangerous and can cause many other more serious problem when used in the long term.

      You will hopefully discover that my therapy aka “Joepathy” will help you within 24 hours after you have taken your first dose after a meal.

      The remedies you will order are as follows:

      Nat Phos 6x dose 2-4 tablets taken immediately after each of 3 meals.
      This remedy accelerates the passage of food down the gut and prevents the formation of acid which would otherwise reflux causing GERD.

      Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily.
      This remedy works to repair the damaged Esophagus which has metastasised to resemble the gut to deal with the Hcl refluxed into it causing severe distress. Arnica works with the Nat Phos to speedily cure the problem.

      Robinia Pseudacacia 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily.
      This remedy is the nearest homeopathic quivalent of the PPI drugs commonly used in medicine.

      You can also take a PROBIOTIC like Bifilac daily for a week. A Probiotic will help by changing the balance of the Bacteria in the gut and will contribute to your cure and help to ensure that your problem does not recur. After your problem with GERD is stabilised you can take the Arnica in the Wet dose nightly before bed for life. You do not need to take Nat Phos daily but you will keep a stock to be used whenever you feel uncomfortable after a meal when you will take 2-3 tablets as necessary.

      Please observe the following simple rules:

      Do not eat large meals. Eat small meals but more often if you feel hungry. Do not drink more that a few sips of water after your meals. This is to prevent the further dilution of your gastric juice which can then reflux into your Esophagus which results in GERD.

      It is important that you do not go to bed for at least 2 hours after dinner as food will take about this time to digest and it is best to stay awake and upright to enable your food to digest before going to bed.

      No fatty food, alcohol, coffee, preserved meats like sausages, ham, bacon as they contain Saltpeter which will antidote the remedies listed immediately.

      If you suffer from a stomach ache or you feel your stomach puffing up before a meal during the day between meals, this is usually due to hunger pains, caused by your gastric juices attacking the inner lining and the wall of your stomach. The simple remedy is to eat some food like a biscuit or a banana between meals to keep the gastric juice away from digesting the stomach wall which results in a stomach ache which in some cases can be acute.

      You must drink at least 3 liters of liquids, preferably water daily and you must also exercise for at least half hour daily. It is important to sweat it out as this is all part of my therapy to overcome GERD.

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Order the remedy in a 5ml Liquid Alcohol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
      Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
      Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done every time before sipping a capful of the bottle twice daily.

      It is understood that the patient will stop all other drugs which s/he may be taking for this ailment.
      Do not use Coffee, Cola beverages, preserved foods like sausages, ham and bacon as they contain Saltpeter.

      Report response as soon as you discover any relief in his current status.

      • Tiffany says:

        Thank you for your response!

        I willing start him on the therapy very soon. He was medicated with Reglan and Pepcid for 12 months following after the diagnosis. He went off meds at 13 months old and, as far as I could tell, had no issues with GERD until he was around age 14.

        We’ve been to a specialist, he’s endured 2 endoscopies and is taking medication daily. I truly hope to find a cure, or at least a natural way to control it, before he’s off on his own!

  402. Shardul says:

    Hello doctor
    My daughter suffered from GERD at 3 months of age.But fortunately we followed your prescription and she got relieved.Recently we introduced rice cereal on the advice of pediatrician and her reflux came back with vegence.she is 6 months today and totally refusing the breast. My milk supply seems to be diminishing. She is starving out of hunger and not taking formula. I tried giving her 1/2 nat phos 6x before feeding but even then she is not nursing instead burping and coughing. Pls help us. If she still wanted to continue solids is there any way we can still use NATPOS?
    Kindly guide us with prescription

    • Joe says:

      You are expected to consult a pediatrician to guide you on feeding your baby as I am over 88 years and I can only suggest how to help your baby.
      I can suggest that you:
      Stop the solids as her digestion is not able to cope.
      Try to breast feed.
      Change the formula.
      You can give her Nat Phos 6x after a feed.
      Consult the pediatrician.

      You can take Arnica 6c in the Wet dose thrice daily to increase your milk supply.

      • Shardul says:

        Thank you so much for the reply sir.

        I would like to ask you if I can also take silica 6x which I have in hand.Pls advice. New to homeopathy so can i take arnica and silica ( if u suggest)at a time.

        • Joe says:

          I did not prescribe Silica 6x for you as it is a very powerful deep acting remedy which will be carried over to baby in your breast milk and can cause undesirable after effects.

          I prescribed Arnica 6c to increase your lactation.
          You may however take Silica 6c after you have used the Arnica for a week and reported its effect on you.

          • Shardul says:

            Hello doctor

            We stopped solids so he was nursingevery 2 hours and I see my supply got back. I also gave him 1/2 natphos 6x after every feed. Till yesterday he was fine but today he is again in lot of pain. Arching his back. Waking up from maps as though he got frightened. His hands and feet are warm even his head but no temperature. He is definitely in pain. I am continuing giving him natphos but he is not showing any signs of comfort. He is coughing ,wheezing alot

              “We stopped solids so he was nursingevery 2 hours and I see my supply got back. I also gave him 1/2 natphos 6x after every feed. “

              You stated a few days ago that you had ready my prescription for Baby GERD and I did not therefore repeat it for your benefit. You will observe that you are expected to give half tablet of Nat Phos 6x before and the balance immediately after every feed till baby’s digestion takes over which can be in a few days or weeks.

              I shall repeat my prescription for Baby GERD:

              I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

              The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

              You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

              You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

              Babies do not always do a poo daily. Some babies can go up to 5 days to do so. A gentle massage of her abdomen after every feed in a clockwise direction usually stimulates evacuation.

              You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

                Thank you for your valuable time doctor

                Yes I did give him half after every feed as he was really really hungry and wanted to feed every 2 hours but we have a restriction on number of pillets to be used.
                He seems really hungry but in pain doctor. Even if I go till 8 pillets per day it was not enough for him.
                Also 1 observation he is coughing and in pain when i gave him 1/2 before feed.
                His urine is so hot and he has so much of heat in the body.

                • Joe says:

                  Since baby is not responding to the Nat Phos alone you will add Robinia Pseudacacia 30c in the Wet dose twice daily in the morning and in the evening. This remedy will hopefully solve your baby’s problem as it acts in a similar manner to the PPI drugs doctors prescribe to reduce the flow of Hcl Acid into the stomach.
                  You will continue to give her the Nat Phos as usual.

                  The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

                  Order the remedy in the Ethanol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
                  Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
                  Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
                  Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you give baby a teaspoonful of the remedy twice daily.

                  If you cannot get the Liquid dilution you may use the standard Pellets available. You will use 6 pellets in a 500ml bottle of water.

                • Joe says:

                  I just noticed that you referred to “pillets”

                  “Even if I go till 8 pillets per day it was not enough for him.”

                  Nat Phos 6x Biochemic Cell Salt is always in PILLS. NOT pillets.

                  Please check what you are giving baby.

                    I was really fascinated by your work and started searching about you and your work online. I SALUTE you for your humanitarian service. I really got interested in homeopathy and wanted to learn it.

                    Regarding my baby progress
                    We stopped solids. Baby is doing good now.For some feeds I am giving Natphos.Do you want me to give Robiniap? (I did not give till now)
                    I also got Arnica 6c .How should I use it?

                    I also really wanted to delay solids for my baby as per your prescription . My friends here insisting me that my milk is deficient in iron ,vitamin A,C,D.
                    Need your comments on that.Is my milk sufficient for the overall development of the baby?
                    Are there any homeopathy supplements ( asking out of curiosity )

                    • Joe says:

                      Glad to note that you appreciate my effort to help suffering humanity with my own brand of Homeopathy which is now recognized as “Joepathy” where I treat patients free of charge.

                      If you read more about this term on Google you may discover the reason why classical homeopaths only charge sometimes unreasonable fees but do not deliver.

                      If baby’s GERD has already been controlled with Nat Phos 6x you do not have to give baby the Robinia which in any event is absolutely safe.

                      Your milk is by far the best you can give baby. It has all the nutrition for baby’s growth.

                      You do NOT need any homeopathy if baby has overcome GERD.

                      I did not give any thing except breasts milk. I am suspecting that peAnuts that I ate are the cilulprit.
                      I gave him robinia pseudocacia 30 c wet dose in the morning and evening. But it seems to work only for 1 feed but again he is back to normal.. grunting, arching his back. I also giving him Nat phos 6 x 1/2 before and after each feed. But they are insufficient for 24 hours as he is nursing and pulling off and again wanted to nurse.
                      Kindly help. I also stopped dairy.

                      I am hoping robinia will take time to kickstart ( pls confirm )what happens if I give him more th an 8 ?

    Hello Dr. De Livera,

    My son was diagnosised with silent reflux this week. He is 2 months and 29 dayas old :). I would like to use something to help him with his reflux but I am bot interested in using any od the dangerous medicines. I found your website and wanted to see if you could give us advice.

    My son is 24 inches long and has 10 lbs and 15.5 oz (weighted on 6/28/18). When we need to feed him he fights the bottle (I pump my breastmilk and occasionally give formula if I don’t have enough breastmilk), and the best time to feed him is when he is asleep.

    We plan on using Nat Phos 6x but the product label says not to use it for longer than 7 days so I wanted to ask should we continue to use the product longer if the symptoms persist. Also, for the Arnica liqud, can it be in 20% alcohol and should I keep the bottle of wet dose in refrigerator and how long can it stay there before it needs to be tossed?

    Do you have any other advice for us?

    Your help is greatly appreciated!

    Best regards,
    Azra

    • Joe says:

      I see that you have already read my prescription but you will note that there is no mention of giving baby Arnica which I recommended for mothers if they are not lactating sufficiently to satisfy baby.

      I have prescribed Nat Phos 6x to hundreds of babies during the past 15 years and have never had reports of any problems if it is taken for over a week. In my experience mothers use this remedy Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt for a period ranging from a few days to under a month and they stop it when baby’s digestive system takes over.

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

      Babies do not always do a poo daily. Some babies can go up to 5 days to do so. A gentle massage of her abdomen after every feed in a clockwise direction usually stimulates evacuation.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
      Do not give the MMR Vaccine in One shot as there is plenty of evidence on the Web of severe side effects which can result. You are advised to give it in 3 separate shots if you must do so, after baby is 2 years old.

      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.

When we need to feed him he fights the bottle (I pump my breastmilk and occasionally give formula if I don’t have enough breastmilk), and the best time to feed him is when he is asleep. His GI doctor wants us to put him on a feeding tube since he was also diagnosed as a failure to thrive.

    We plan on using Nat Phos 6x once we receive it. Also, for the Arnica liqud, can it be in 20% alcohol and should I keep the bottle of wet dose in refrigerator and how long can it stay there before it needs to be tossed?

    Do you have any other advice for us?

    Your help is greatly appreciated!

    Best regards,
    Azra

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

      Babies do not always do a poo daily. Some babies can go up to 5 days to do so. A gentle massage of her abdomen after every feed in a clockwise direction usually stimulates evacuation.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
      Do not give the MMR Vaccine in One shot as there is plenty of evidence on the Web of severe side effects which can result. You are advised to give it in 3 separate shots if you must do so, after baby is 2 years old.

      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.

      I have NOT prescribed Arnica for baby and you will NOT give it.

      I used to prescribe it for the MOTHER but many like you have given it to their babies and I then stopped to mention it in my prescription for the last 10 years.

    Thank you so much for your response Dr. De Livera. Actually I was not planning on giving Arnica to my baby, I wanted to drink it, however I will not do that either. We will receive Nat Phos 6x tomorrow and will start the therapy as soon as we receive it. We have not been using the prescribed Zantac and have no plans to give it to our baby. Our son is taking daily drops of vitamin D and probiotics drops (Gerber soothe probiotic drops), so I wanted to ask you if we can continue giving that to him once we start using Nat Phos 6x. I also wanted to check if there is any reason why nat phos 6x should not be given to babies with a feeding tube (I don’t see any reason but wanted to check). We are hopefull that he will start gaining weight once he gets a feeding tube and with the nar phos 6x therapy.
    Thank you so much once again! Have a great day!

    Hello doctor.
    I don’t know whether my earlier message reached you.
    My son was under your Joe party from his 4 th month.. but as per pediatric advice as he was not gaining much weight we started him solids. But again on jun 21 st we stopped all the solids and started with natphos 6x. He recouped better. But after a week he got his reflux back. So I started with robinia pseudocacia as you mentioned also with natphos. But he is not fully cured. Moreover he is not sleeping properly only sleeps when held and wakes up as though he is frightened . He has become more warm in hands and head. He is pooping daily though ( may be because of natphos ) his poop is running mustard coloured.

    Is there a permanent cure for Gerd?
    Is my using natphos ( 8 some days) caused stagnation in his system and is he not responding for it now? He regurgitated very often and always hungry.
    Kindly help this little guy as I feel he is in pain most of the time.

    • Joe says:

      All your 9 messages have been received and answered by me.

      Your baby was doing fine on your breast milk but you gave him solids too early and this started the many problems that you are now facing.

      Follow my prescription precisely and pray that his own digestion will take over

      Do not keep complaining as you are doing today as there is nothing more that I can do to help baby right now.

    Dear doctor
    My 7 month old is suffering from indigestion. He is regurgitates after everyfeed. Not splitting up though. I gave him nux vomica 30c 2 pillets but not able to find any result . Can I give him natphos 6x now. Will the higher potency takes over the lower. ? I saw ur blog post prescribing rubenia pseudocacia . Can I give him.

    • Joe says:

      You seem to have diagnosed your baby’s ailment and already medicated him using the information from case records you have copied from my Website.

      You also seem intent on experimenting with various other remedies and as an after thought are inquiring if yet another remedy is indicated.

      I am not used to this form of prescribing for patients and if you still wish to consult me you will give me the information you would normally give a physician of your baby’s ailment and what drugs you have given him up to now.

      • Swetha says:

        Sorry doctor
        When he was 4 month old he was diagnosed reflux. Doctor gave Zantac he was doing good but after some days he was more worse

Early mornings he regugrates before feeds. He cries before every feed and taking very less.

            Hello doctor
            .
            I gave my son natphos 6x 1/2 before and after every feed. After 3 feeds he was accpting breast so I gave him only half at the end of feeding.
            He had good naps in the day time.
            But by evening he became so uncomfortable in tummy.I can hear sounds from his tummy. He was in pain turning around and crying. He did not sleep whole night due to gas..kindly advise . Did his symptoms for worse?or symptoms get worse and then will he be back to normal?

            • Joe says:

              He may want the 2 halves for a few days after which you can reduce dose.

              • Swetha says:

                Ok doctor.
                He is horribly down with stomach cramps . Not sleeping. Sleeping only when we hold him. Will he be ok ?

                • Joe says:

                  You first consulted me for your baby just 4 days ago and I can see that your problem seems to be caused by your not following my therapy precisely as prescribed.

                  I note that you have finally given the NP6x in 2 halves, one each before and after a feed but when you discovered that baby was OK, you then stopped the second half and then bug me again on my Website asking for my help.

                  I would like you to know that I am over 88 years in age and do not have the time to waste on mothers like you who are taking unfair advantage of my attitude to help my patients which I have always done free of charge.

                  You will compel me to stop treating your baby if you continue in this strain when you can go back to your PPI drugs which you had given him in the past few months of his life.

                  • Swetha says:

                    Dear sir

                    Even the greatest scientists do mistakes. Humans make mistakes. I am after all a very desperate mother who tried everything and found some hope in you. I know you also know the pain as in one of your posts you mentioned that your son had acidreflux.
                    As we are following your prescription, we expect you to clarify and correctly guide us as we are prone to doubts because this is new to us. And dear doctor every baby is different

                    I am facing some trouble following your prescription as it says feed little but frequently . Give 1 tab 1/2 before and 1/2 after every feed. My baby is unable to be consoled as he seems constantly hungry even after precisely following your prescription.

                    I NEED YOUR HELP. As a fatherly figure kindly help me in following your prescription.
                    I give him 1/2 before feed, he latches,drinks but unlaches arches his back in pain and stops feeding . So immediately I give him remaining half. He burps and he feels hungry again.
                    Now I cannot feed him again as I have to follow 6 /8 per day.

                    PLEASE HELP.

                    • Joe says:

                      Your problem seems to be due to your wanting to go ahead on your own after partial assimilation of information you gathered on my Website and discovering that your interpretation of my therapy did not work . You then referred it to me after experimenting with your baby:
                      “My 7 month old is suffering from indigestion. He is regurgitates after everyfeed. Not splitting up though. I gave him nux vomica 30c 2 pillets but not able to find any result . Can I give him natphos 6x now. Will the higher potency takes over the lower. ? I saw ur blog post prescribing rubenia pseudocacia . Can I give him.”

                      All you had to do was to simply state your baby’s predicament with GERD and asked for advice . Your showing off to me that you had used various remedies which you picked up from my Website, all of which did not work, frankly irritated me at that time and does so even today, as you have misinterpreted my request that you do not overfeed to mean that you should give baby just a few drops of milk and add the NP6x every time you do so. On that basis it is likely that you may need perhaps 20 tablets NP6x which is just absurd.

                      You do not have to give NP6x every time baby has a feed as his own digestive system can digest the milk without it.

                      You have spent some time on research on my Website and you would have read the many hundreds of cases I have treated of mothers from the world over and you would have observed how they used my Joepathy successfully which you have not succeeded in doing even today which leads to questions every time there is some problem.

                      This is where I am compelled to protest as I cannot waste my time on you as I have so many other things to do at my age.

                      You cannot expect me to hold your hand and instruct you every time baby throws up.

    Dear Dr De Livera,
    I’m so happy I found your website and you who can help to cure our babies in alternative way instead of patching them with dangerous drugs!
    My question is there so called “mechanical” reflux?
    My baby girl of 16 months got stomach flu (sapo virus), she was throwing up to the point when she started vomit the acid and bile. At the emergency they prescribed her zofran for nausea and vomiting. I gave her that medicine couple of times and then stopped it and just tried to hydrate by breastfeeding her as she refused to eat or drink anything else. She also had very bad diarrhea. After 3 days she seemed got better, and I started to introduce some rice decoction, banana puree, apples. She was ok for 2 days and then started vomiting again, at the emergency they said that by the symptoms (arching back, not sleeping at night, restless, having painful gas) she has reflux now and prescribed ranitidine which I gave her for 2days in the morning and evening, then her pediatrician prescribed her Nexium which I gave her only 1 dose, but after reading more info about it I got horrified and then came into your website where you recommend Nat Phos 6x , which I ordered and it already came. I didn’t give her those drugs for 2 days already except mylicone and prebiotic drops. She throw up today again, but overall seemed not too bad.
    Now my second question. I’ve read your posts where you recommending half pill before and after feeding for infants, 6-8 times a day. Is it the same treatment and dosage for 16 months old baby? I still breastfeed her, but she already started her solid foods in the puréed form. How can I combine that? Should I take it myself too?
    I’m looking forward for your reply. Thank you in advance

      • Swetha says:

        Thanks alot doctor for the reply. I started giving him doses according to prescription. He does good after a big dry burp. But pls clarify on the below doubt

        1.According. to your prescription I have spaced out 4 hours between the feedings so that I will not exceed 6 tablets in 24 hours
        After burping half an hour later he is super hungry and wants to feed.
        2. Are there any side effects of giving more than 6 in 24 hours
        3. Your prescription says feed frequently and less. And also says limit to 6 tablets. Also 1 (1/2+1/2) after everyfeed. I am finding hard to figure out about this part of prescription.
        Kindly clarify. Thanks in advance

        • Joe says:

          You may increase the tablets to 8 if baby is not comfortable with just 6. You will try however to keep under 6 per day.

    Dear Dr De Livera
    I apologize for such long post and it seems posted multiple times.
    My baby is 16 months old and she already started solids when she was around 8 months. Should I stop giving her solids during treatment and use the same dosage as you prescribe to infants?

    • Joe says:

      At 16 months she should be well able to digest solids and you may give her 1-2 tablets Nat Phos 6x immediately after a meal. You can taper out the NP6x when she shows signs of recovering.

      Do not exceed 6 tablets in 24 hours.

        Greetings Dr De Livera.
        I thank you for your response and happy to report you that my baby’s reflux seems dissipating. But now we are having other problem such as gas and constipation as well as funky ammonia smell of the urine. Is it normal reaction from Nat Phos or could Nat Phos cause that? Can you please advice us how we can solve that issue and if there is any remedy that I can use in combination with Nat Phos
        P.S. I started giving her prune concentrate, but I’m not sure if it helps too much.

All the preventive techniques ive done already like elevating head and all. Still same, I am hoping this Probiotics will help him while im trying to get Nat Phos 6x from US. if it does arrive, is it okay to start giving him? what about the probiotics? and the upcoming vaccines?Thank you

    Hi!
    My baby is three weeks old and is exhibiting signs of silent reflux since around day 8. I would like to explore natural remadies to help my little one relax.
    She’s very unsettled most of the day, arches her back, hiccups a lot, cry’s after feed etc.
    Is it possible Nat Phos would help in this particular instance?

    Goodmorning Mr Joe Delivera,

    I have sent you a message, please refer to the above, thank you so much

    Hi Joe- My daughter who is now 13 months was on zantac as a baby. I took her off myself at 8 months and did chiropractor care with her instead. She had 2 instances of intusseception and was hospitalized both times but it resolved itself. Our daughter has hypotonia, VSD’s and other health issues. She is off her off bottles and trying to get her to eat is a chore. She has never done purees well besides bananas. So everything she eats is mixed with bananas and she eats yogurt mixed with other things. She recently figured out how to eat other solids but mainly puts them in her mouth and spits them out. We have done a swallow study and she does not aspirate when eating so they said her low tone is causing the issues. Within the last week she has had a hard time going #2 and when pushing anything she previously ate or drank comes out of her nose. Her stool is soft but formed when it does come out. Takes her about a day to get it all out and then she has a few diapers that are runny. She hates her car seat and has hated her car seat since she has been a baby. Has been congested with a few ear infections for 3+ months. We do have a gastro appointment in a month but quiet frankly I’m sick of waiting to do something, i dont want her on zantac again, and i really dont want to do a slew of tests as she already has been through a lot. I just ordered Hylands Nat. Phos 6. What is the correct dosage for our daughter who is 13 months? and does this sound like it is truly GERD?

    • Joe says:

      I noticed that you have addressed me by my given name, Joe.

      I do not permit being addressed by name on my website, as the least I can expect is that you show some respect in doing so.

      Here in Sri Lanka where I live, we have a modicum of respect for age.

      I am over 88.

      Glad to note that you have studied the many cases of baby GERD on my Website and that you have already ordered Nat Phos 6x.

      You will also order Robinia Pseudacacia 30c in the pellets and follow my instructions on giving baby the dose.

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      Babies do not always do a poo daily. Some babies can go up to 5 days to do so. A gentle massage of her abdomen after every feed in a clockwise direction usually stimulates evacuation.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
      Do not give the MMR Vaccine in One shot as there is plenty of evidence on the Web of severe side effects which can result. You are advised to give it in 3 separate shots if you must do so, after baby is 2 years old.

      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      You will add Robinia Pseudacacia 30c in the Wet dose twice daily in the morning and in the evening. This remedy will hopefully solve your baby’s problem as it acts in a similar manner to the PPI drugs doctors prescribe to reduce the flow of Hcl Acid into the stomach.
      You will continue to give her the Nat Phos as usual.

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Order the remedy in the Ethanol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
      Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you give baby a teaspoonful of the remedy twice daily.

      If you cannot get the Liquid dilution you may use the standard Pellets available. You will use 6 pellets in a 500ml bottle of water.
      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.

    Hello,

    I realize this is an old posting but I found this on an internet search and am hoping to get some help. My 3 month old has reflux. He first showed signs around 1 month with frequent spitting up, and being fussy and gassy. He is exclusively breastfed. I cut out dairy and eggs from my diet and started him on a probiotic and I saw significant improvement. However, over the last 3 weeks, he has been spitting up a lot more and is not gaining any weight. I started him on the Nat Phos 6x yesterday evening. He has had three doses and I myself have had 2 doses. He is still spitting up a lot and seems more uncomfortable now. I know it’s still early, but is there anything else I should be doing at this time?

    Thank you for any help you can provide!

          Hi Mr.,
          I started to give Nat Phos 6X to my 7 months old daughter 2 days ago. I give it the way you prescribed her : half tablet dissolved in a little bit of milk just before the feeding and the other half immediately after the feeding. She get a total of 6 tablets in 24 hours.
          I don’t give her after EVERY feed because she nurses 10-12 times a day.

          I don’t see any improvement yet on her silent reflux. All of her symptoms are still there: arching her back, difficulty to sleep, coughing, hiccups and swallowing her reflux.

          Is it because I didn’t get the Nat Phos 6X in the Hyland’s brand? I just found the Dr Reckeweg brand at my local health food store.

      The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      Babies do not always do a poo daily. Some babies can go up to 5 days to do so. A gentle massage of her abdomen after every feed in a clockwise direction usually stimulates evacuation.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
      Do not give the MMR Vaccine in One shot as there is plenty of evidence on the Web of severe side effects which can result. You are advised to give it in 3 separate shots if you must do so, after baby is 2 years old.

      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.

    Hi,My little girl is 17 weeks old. She has been suffering from reflux symptoms since 2 weeks old. She has been formula fed since birth.She arches her back, refuses feeds quite often and cries a lot all day. She brings up mouthfuls after every feed.She also has a noise in her throat which sounds like mucus rattling. She has been given ranitidine dose of 0.8mg twice a day since 8weeks. However was then prescribed losec last week screamed even more with it. Was referred to paediatrician and they told me to stop losec and increase ranitidine to 3 times daily. All symptoms remain I have only now discovered this page today and I would like your advice on how to cure this naturally. I live in the UK and can seemingly only purchase Schuessler Tissue Salts Nat Phos 10 . Are these different from NatPhos6x?

    Hi Joe

    My LO is 6weeks old and suffering from Silent reflux I have some Nat Phos 6x tablets but not sure on dosage or how to administer I have tried crushing and dissolving in 5mls water but doesn’t seem to work and most of it just sticks to the bottle and my LO won’t take it any other way. Would it be ok to add to her formula feed from when I make up the formula?

    TIA

        Hello, I found your website and therapy for baby GERD and am so very thankful for it. It virtually healed my baby’s symptoms overnight. He is almost 4 months old and I have been following the protocol for about a month (1 Nat Phos tablet dissolved after every feeding. 5-6x per day). It has been working wonderfully for about a month, but this past week he seems to be reverting back to his old symptoms- Lots of reflux, hiccups, discomfort, irritability and fussiness after feeding. I’m wondering if you have any idea why this could be happening and if there is something I could do moving forward. I would very much appreciate your help. Thank you!!!

        • Joe says:

          Glad my therapy aka Joepathy helped.

          It seems to me that Baby is not responding to the Nat Phos 6x alone and it is time to add Robinia Pseudacacia 30c in the Wet dose to reinforce its action. This remedy will reduce the Hcl acid flow in baby’s stomach and works in a similar manner to the standard PPI drugs like Nexium which are usually prescribed by doctors even though they are aware that they are dangerous.

          You will make it as per instructions below and give half teaspoonful, twice daily.

          The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

          Get Robinia P 30c in the standard pellets and insert just 6 pellets into a 500ml bottle of Spring Water.
          Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
          Shake the bottle hard before you give baby half teaspoonful twice daily.

          You will stop the Robinia as soon as you find that baby is OK but you will continue the Nat Phos for as long as you feel that it is needed. Nat Phos is NOT a drug and is absolutely safe in use for long periods.

          Report progress in 48 hours.

    Hello,
    I followed directions from above recommendations since they are similar to mine. My two month old was prescribed baby zantac at one month due to wakefulness, no back sleeping, continuous burping and spitting up throughout the day. He is exclusively breast fed. I stopped the zantac and started Nat Phos 6x after each feeding one week with major improvement. Then after a week I stopped as recommended on the directions, he showed the same initial symptoms again I started nat phos again with nux vomica 30c. Major improvement, I stopped after 3 days as recommended on the directions. Now he is back to fussing after each feeding. I am taking probiotics and I have eliminated dairy and spicy foods well before he was one month old. Please help

    • Joe says:

      Glad you stopped the Zantac as it is a dangerous PPI drug and not for infants but is commonly prescribed by doctors as they have not been taught to use a more effective and absolutely safe Homeopathic remedy – Nat Phos 6x which I have pioneered in prescribing.

      You stated:
      “I stopped the zantac and started Nat Phos 6x after each feeding one week with major improvement. Then after a week I stopped as recommended on the directions, he showed the same initial symptoms again I started nat phos again with nux vomica 30c. Major improvement, I stopped after 3 days as recommended on the directions. “

      I cannot recollect prescribing the baby patient to STOP the Nat Phos as this is counter productive and you already have evidence of this fact. I would appreciate if you can copy this instruction in your next post.

      The recommendations you followed may be from one of my very old prescriptions and I have since stopped Nux Vomica as I had one negative after effect as Nux Vomica is potentized Strychnine which is best avoided for infants. I have since replaced it with Robinia Pseudacacia 6c which I have found to be as effective in reducing the acid and very safe. I do still prescribe the Nat Phos 6x as the main remedy for Baby GERD and shall copy my default therapy below.

      I shall add my prescription for Robinia Ps to be used only if baby does not respond to the Nat P 6x.

      Since baby is not responding to the Nat Phos alone you will add Robinia Pseudacacia 30c in the Wet dose twice daily in the morning and in the evening. This remedy will hopefully solve your baby’s problem as it acts in a similar manner to the PPI drugs doctors prescribe to reduce the flow of Hcl Acid into the stomach.
      You will continue to give her the Nat Phos as usual.

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Order the remedy in the Ethanol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
      Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you give baby a teaspoonful of the remedy twice daily.

      If you cannot get the Liquid dilution you may use the standard Pellets available. You will use 6 pellets in a 500ml bottle of water.

    Hi,

    My baby is 4 weeks old and around 8lbs, he has had silent reflux from very early on. He hates being on his back so we hold him mostly, he takes feeds quite well but can sometimes become very agitated straight afterwards or a couple of hours later (We do wind him well throughout a feed and make sure he is upright for 30 mins after a feed). You can hear him gurgling and swallowing which is then followed by discomfort and crying. He can then be agitated for a good couple of hours and tends to want to be breastfed to soothe his throat. (This is mostly after his bottle feed, he tends to be worse) I’m mostly breastfeeding but also has 2 formula feeds a day. He’s currently just on gaviscon twice a day which I haven’t noticed any difference with. Please could you let me know what you would recommend, if I should carry on with the gaviscon or not and where I could get the Nat phos 6x from as I can only seem to find Nat phos 10 from Holland and Barrett.

    Looking forward to seeing your reply
    Many thanks.

    Dear Sir

    I tried sending my case yesterday but I am not sure if you have received it or not as my phone got switched off. Resending it here again. Accept my apologies in case if it’s been sent twice.

    My daughter’s age is 11 months & 11 days (corrected age is 9 months & 1 day). Three months after her birth, my daughter started having frequent episodes of vomiting (2-3 episodes daily or sometimes even more). All her symptoms were like symptoms of GERD but we didn’t go for any invasive tests as she was gaining weight quite well. Initially she was prescribed Ranitidine but it didn’t help her at all. After that they switched her to Lansoprazole and it helped her upto some extent. Now before a month her vomiting episodes reduced to almost once a week. Therefore, we decided to taper Lansoprazole and see if we can do without it. We tapered Lansoprazole for three weeks and then stopped it. But as we tapered and stopped Lansoprazole her symptoms of Nausea and Vomiting were back to haunt her. Therefore we started her on a Homeopathic Protocol prescribed by a local Homeopath here. She was put on Iris Versicolor 200C (twice daily), Nux Vomica 30C + Chamomilla 30C (thrice daily), Natrum Phosphoricum 6X (three to four times daily before meals) and Lycopodium 30C (once daily). She is tolerating feedings very well after starting the Homeopathic Remedies but she still has daily episodes of Nausea & Vomiting. However, intensity of Reflux is very low as compared to the intensity when she was young. How do we come to a stage where she can be completely free of Nausea & Vomiting? I would really appreciate if you could guide us help our daughter.

    Hi,

    My son (5 months) pediatrician finally confirmed he has acid reflux and prescribed Ranitidine after months of doctor’s and hospital visits and trying many other remedies that didn’t work. We visited pediatric chiropractors, osteopaths and dentists including a strict diet for me without much improvement. We are hoping to avoid giving Ranitidine and are trying your treatment.

    He’s had colic since birth and the acid reflux started 2 weeks later including spit ups and vomiting. He was clearly in distress and pain and would also cry and be fussy for the majority of the day with minimal napping. Every evening from 4 pm to 10pm like clockwork was the worst screaming and crying. More recently the evening hours are worst from 6 to 10pm.

    We decided to give your remedy and have been using it for 4 days, unfortunately we haven’t seen any real improvement.

    I have been giving my son Nat Phos 6X in half tablet in water after feeds (total 6 tablets per day) as he feeds so frequently that I would not have enough tablets for before and after each meal. We also make sure to burp him after each feed and keep him upright for at least 30 mins.

    I have also been taking 2 tablets 3 times a day. I have also had a fairy strict diet and avoid diary, caffeine, raw vegetables, citrus fruit, fermented foods as well as coniferous vegetables.

    Unfortunately there has been no improvement since starting Nat Phos 6x. You mentioned there is another remedy if this one doesn’t work is it Robinia Pseudacacia 30c in the Wet dose twice daily morning and evening?

    Thank-you

    • Joe says:

      Glad to learn that you have studied my therapy and have already given Nat Phos 6x to your 5 month old baby.

      This remedy is easily the best to alleviate Baby GERD and I would suggest you get another brand and observe if the change helps.

      The remedy I prescribe for extreme cases is noted below:

      Since baby is not responding to the Nat Phos alone you will add Robinia Pseudacacia 30c in the Wet dose twice daily in the morning and in the evening. This remedy will hopefully solve your baby’s problem as it acts in a similar manner to the PPI drugs doctors prescribe to reduce the flow of Hcl Acid into the stomach.
      You will continue to give her the Nat Phos as usual.

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Order the remedy in the Ethanol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
      Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you give baby a teaspoonful of the remedy twice daily.

      If you cannot get the Liquid dilution you may use the standard Pellets available. You will use 6 pellets in a 500ml bottle of water.

      • Anna says:

        Thank-you for the feedback I am looking for another brand of the Nat Phos but will also pick-up the Robinia Pseudacacia 30C to have on hand. I will report back with an update.

      • Anna says:

        We are on day 5 of the Nat Phos and the crying/screaming episodes are worst today than before trying Nat Phos not sure what could be contributing to this as I haven’t added anything new to my diet.

        I should note that my son has become constipated since starting the remedy. Prior to the remedy my son would have bowel movements either every day or every second day. Could the Nat Phos contribute to this?

        I did also go out and purchase another brand of Nat Phos as per your recommendation since the current brand isn’t really working. I did want to post as the new brand (Martin & Pleasance) is substantially different looking the original brand I am using (Hylands) both are Nat Phos #10.

        I know you mentioned that brands are irrelevant as it depends on where you live in the world but I am including it for reference and comparison as I don’t think I can give my son half tablet of the new brand as it’s substantially more than half tablet of the original brand.

        Hylands – Current remedy used
        http://www.hylands.ca/products/10-nat-phos
        – tablets are tiny and round
        – Easy to cut
        – Dissolve instantly in water
        – approx size difference 4 Hylands to 1 Martin & Plesance

        Martin & Pleasance – 2nd Brand purchased
        http://store.martinandpleasance.com/epages/martinandpleasance.sf/en_AU/?ObjectPath=/Shops/martinandpleasance/Products/MPTS10
        – tablets large and oval
        – not easy to cut
        – do not dissolve easily

        I have also ordered a 3rd brand online in case but it won’t arrive for a couple more days. I should also note that I’ve seem many other blogs that reference you and this website specifically and they have all used Hylands brand as this is the most popular brand in North America.

        • Joe says:

          It seems to me that the description of both brands of Nat Phos 6x can be used for baby as they both refer to being Schuessler’s Cell Salts.

          It is usual to market this remedy in small tablets and I have never encountered them otherwise. You may use the one that is easy to halve which also dissolves.

          Nat Phos 6x is not responsible for baby’s “constipation” as it is in itself a mild laxative. It works by stimulating peristalsis and it is a shame that it is not more widely used as it is very safe for use and the equivalent in Allopathy does not exist although the PPI drugs are used and are reputed to harm the patient in many ways including affecting the brain according to the FDA when taken for long periods.

          You can follow my prescription where I have suggested a gentle massage of the abdomen which can be done often.

          I have also added Robinia Pseudacacia 30c to be given twice daily and there is no other remedy I can prescribe right now to help baby.

          Report progress in 48 hours.

          • Anna says:

            Hi I apologize for not providing an update earlier but there is a postage strike in our area and most mail and packages are delayed as such I didn’t receive the Robinia Pseudacacia 30c until recently. As well our son caught his first cold and we were dealing with this for almost a week.

            While we waited for the Robinia we continued with the Nat Phos 6x and I am happy to report that we have see an improvement perhaps in our case it needed more than a couple of days. During the day most of the symptoms are gone but in the evening some still exist but it is still much better than before.

            We have also started the Robinia and have now done 2 days 4 doses but haven’t noticed any change from just the Nat Phos. We will continue for another couple of days to see if there is any additional improvement.

            Thank you for your remedies and your website as without it I would have had no other option but to put my child on pharmaceutical drugs. You would be happy to hear that many forums and websites like to your site and are following your remedies.

              Hi,

              I just wanted to add that the Robinia Pseudacacia 30c we received is in pellet form and I have dissolved it in water. Is there any special way of storing these since there is no alcohol? I have been keeping it in room temperature but perhaps I should put it in the fridge? How many days can I use the current mixture before it expires?

            • Joe says:

              I believe that your baby’s GERD is now OK from your report and you do no have to add the Robinia P 30 to help him.

                Hi

                Thank you for the update not having to give the Robinia is helpful as it’s one less thing to worry about.

                I originally learned about Nat Phos 6X for infant GERD from the Mama Natural website as I have been on her weekly distribution list since I was pregnant. I’m not sure how I didn’t see the reflux info earlier.

                If you read the link below it talks about reflux in babies and suggests Nat Phos 6X. Under point #7 she specifically provides a link to your website and this thread.

                  Thank you for the links to 2 websites that have referred to and are promoting the use of Nat Phos 6x to treat Baby GERD. You may like to know that NP6x is my own discovery and is not the classical remedy for this common ailment as it goes against the rules of Homeopathy which specifies that the “ Symptoms of the ailment be treated with a Single Remedy”. I studied Homeopathy 40 years ago and discovered that it was not the logical way to treat an ailment. I used my own therapy which classical homeopaths derisively labelled “Joepathy” and I am surprised to see over 11000 hits on Google today.

                  You can help to spread the good news that the majority of human ailments can be CURED by “Joepathy”. These include GERD (both Baby and Adult) , Asthma, Eczema, the Common Cold, Sore Throat, to name just a few of the diseases I have treated on my Website.

                  I do not charge for my service which I dispense with the remedy here in Colombo where I live as at my advanced age of 89, I have dedicated the rest of my life to help suffering humanity.

                  Thank you once again for sharing this news that my therapy is also being referred to and spread by other Websites.

                  Feel free to address any medical problems to me on my Website and I shall try to help you if I can.

                    Hi

                    While the Nat Phos was working great for over a month it seems that things have gotten worst over the last week. I will mention I started to come off my strict diet as I thought everything was fine. I have however gone back on the diet the last couple of days and it hasn’t really changed things.

                    Somewhat of an evening crying routine has started again at 5:30pm the last couple of days where he is in extreme pain arching his back and screaming in pain. I have just added the Robinia and will be giving that to him twice a day.

                    Have you had other cases with such feedback?

    Hello,
    I have a little girl who is 8 weeks, 12 pounds, full term baby.
    Shea been suffering from silent reflux symptoms for about 3 weeks now.
    At first I thought it was linked to her tongue and lip tie but after having those treated she is still showing signs of reflux.
    I follow a very strict anti inflammatory diet as well.
    What do you suggest for dosage?

    • Joe says:

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

      Babies do not always do a poo daily. Some babies can go up to 5 days to do so. A gentle massage of her abdomen after every feed in a clockwise direction usually stimulates evacuation.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
      Do not give the MMR Vaccine in One shot as there is plenty of evidence on the Web of severe side effects which can result. You are advised to give it in 3 separate shots if you must do so, after baby is 2 years old.

      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby when you start on my therapy.

  432. Jessica Pacaro says:

    Hello Mr DELIVERA,
    My son is 4 months old and has been on Zantac for reflux since 6weeks old.
    I hate what I am reading about these medications and how frequently they are given to little babies and wish I would have looked harder for a natural remedy in the beginning. But here I am now!
    I delivered my son at home,naturally, he is not vaccinated nor will he be as I am a huge advocate for natural approach. I tried the Zantac because I felt helpless for him. It gave him relief but I can’t stop the nagging feeling of my intuition that it could cause other issues and isn’t really treating the root cause of what’s going on.

    He spits up and vomits with most meals (even on Zantac). He gets super grunty all night like he’s wheezing or clearing his throat and this wakes him up constantly not to Mention me as well since we cosleep in the same room.

    I have purchased the tablets online and I am curious when you say the “mother should avoid all foods that cause distress” for baby what types of food are those? I did not read all the comments as there are so many so I am sorry if you have listed them somewhere.

    I feel very hopeful to try this new routine.

    Thank you in advance for the information and guidance

    • Joe says:

      I note from your email IP that you live in Utah and also note that you have not vaccinated your Baby so far. I hope you will continue not to do so and only accept any vaccination after age 2 or older.

      I have always been anti vaccination and I am now 89 years in age and have only been vaccinated for Small Pox as this was mandatory long years ago in Sri Lanka where I live. I believe that it is this that has enabled me to live up to now and I must also record that I do NOT take any drugs except on a SOS basis, like after surgery in 2008 for a Hernia repair.

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

      The answer to your question is best answered by you on the basis of observing if any food you eat has its reaction on your baby.

      • Jessica Pacaro says:

        Thank you for clarifying.

        Yes I am in Utah and we do not plan to vaccinate our baby ever. Yeaterday was our thanksgiving holiday and it seems that my diet is affecting him more today (too many indulgent treats). I will keep better record of what I eat and how it effects him. Note to self, never have ice cream again while breastfeeding!

        I have also read that acid reflux peaks in babies right around 4 months which he is exactly, so the timing seemed just crazy perfect that I stublmed on this page now.

        So far we are almost thru day one of the new remedy, most of the day was good as we went into our last feeding of the day he got super spit-uppy and visibly uncomfortable along with it.

        The last time we gave Zantac was last night before bed, he woke up twice in the night to feed and with his morning feed at 9am we had the nat phos pills as my husband went out early this morning to get them.

        I have heard that babies can get extra acidic after going off the Zantac, should we expect a couple rough days before seeing improvement?

        Thanks Mr De Livera.
        It is so nice of you to help so many people and dedicate your life to this.
        Much appreciated.

        • Joe says:

          Good to learn that you can still defy BIG PHARMA who are basically the reason for this craze in vaccinating every baby even before they leave hospital. I am indeed a living, breathing, classic example of not being vaccinated, except once.

          You seem to be Lactose Intolerant, judging by your baby’s reaction to the Ice Cream, and the remedy is again Nat Phos 6x. Dose 1 tablet after a glass of milk.

          I do not believe that you will experience any negative response from your baby by stopping this dangerous PPI drug which your FDA has ruled as being dangerous to adults when used in the long term. I shudder to think of its effect on innocent infants!

          Feel free to address all medical problems your baby may encounter throughout life as I will be happy to help, if I am still around. (I am 89 now.)

          This also includes you and your family.

          Spend some time in reading the many cases I have listed in the column on the right side of my Home Page under “Recent Posts”

          • Jessica Pacaro says:

            Yes, I agree, big pharma is one of the biggest crooks in the world. I unfortunately grew up in a generation where my parents fell for the scare tactics and there was no way to get “real” facts on the ingredients or effects. But now a days they now administer triple the amount of immunizations for babies since I was an infant 30 years ago — It just amazes me how few people question the vaccines or the vaccine schedule. It’s way to many chemicals and poisons to put in ANY body let alone an underdeveloped baby.

            I am sure you will live many more years with how you have taken care of yourself! I hope to provide the same for my family now. I can’t change what has been done to me as a baby but I can change what I do going forward and that I have! — also why I didn’t want to give birth in a hospital, too much push for medical intervention that is not medically necessary.

            Update on baby:
            Slept well, woke up twice in the night to feed (which he has been doing for about a week and half now), although I think we are hitting 4 month sleep regression where he uses feeding to soothe back to sleep, I know this because from 2 months old until a week ago he slept for much much longer stretches. I don’t think he is actually hungry at night but nonetheless I give the nat pho’s and give a small feed and burp him and give the remainder and put him back to sleep.😴

            He did spit up a few minutes after burping and taking the balance of the tablet both times. It seems he is way less fussy and not in as much discomfort but the volume of spit-up/vomit has increased from when we used to take the Zantac. This makes me worried that he might be spitting up the second half of the tablet… do you ever suggest giving the whole tablet at the start of the feed?
            I also read about the Nux Vomica, would that be something to try in a few days if the spitting up persists?

            Thank you kindly

            • Joe says:

              Refluxing is normal and I do not think you will need a supplement but I now prescribe Robinia Pseudacacia 30 for desperate cases.

              • Jessica Pacaro says:

                Spit up has decreased dramatically towards the end of the day yesterday and no spit up with burps last night for the night feedings. YES!

                Seems like a happy camper to me. I love that I don’t have a cranky baby first thing in the morning and towards the end of the day while he waited for his next dose of Zantac.

                This keeps his tummy content all day!

                Now… how long do we do this for?

                Thank you so much

                • Joe says:

                  Glad to learn that baby has responded so soon after you gave the required dose of NP6x. You will continue to give it as prescribed for a week and you can then taper the dosage and observe if he is OK with the reduced dosage and use your discretion to eventually stop it.

                  NP6x is absolutely safe in use unlike Zantac which is a PPI drug.

  433. Whitney says:

    Desperate mama here! I have read about nat pho 6 and have heard you are the man to go to! I have a 5 month old who has silent reflux. Because of slow weight gain and “colic” temperament her ped put her on ranitidine 2x daily since 8 weeks. Our dose now is 1.25 ml. When we first started it was a night and day difference but it seems to wear off every time they up the dose and says she just hungry and that’s why she is fussy and not sleeping. She has to be held 24/7…maybe a little spoiled maybe the reflux. I don’t even know at this point. She never nurses more than a few minutes at a time and then is fussy. She naps ok, few 45 min naps a day and then generally fussy in the evening and naps in a wearable baby carrier. Nights are horrible I’m lucky if I get a solid 1.5 hour stretch. Last night she would wake up after 30 mins and scream. I would feed her, lay her down in her rock and play, and start the process over. Maybe she is spoiled and maybe it is reflux. This is my 3rd and she is a whole new ball game. Looking forward to hearing from you. TIA

  434. Anna says:

    Hi,

    The Robinia wasn’t added right away since the Nat Phos was working you said not to give the Robinia.

    This last week I thought perhaps the changes were just diet related so if I went back to the orgiinal diet the Nat Phos would still be enough, however that doesn’t seem the case.

    I will try Robinia over the next week and report back on changes.

  435. Anna says:

    Since my Robinia is a mixture I made with the pellets how do I store it? Can it be on the counter or do I need to put in the fridge?

    Thank-you

    • Joe says:

      All you have to do is to protect the bottle from direct sunlight.

    • Anna says:

      Hi,

      I have now used the Robinia for my son in addition to the Nat Phos for a couple of days but have not seen any improvement.

      I have also seen you mention that the alcohol version is more potent than the pellets perhaps I should try and get the alcohol version? Or perhaps I can make a stronger dilution with the pellets by using more?

      Thank-you
      Anna

      • Joe says:

        The Liquid Dilution is more effective and you can use it.

        • Anna says:

          Hi,

          Just wanted to provide an update. I contacted Boiron the manufacturer of Robinia to understand the differences between the pellets and the liquid solution. They told me I could add more pllets to the dilution so I did. Seems like things have substantially improved over the last two weeks. I should note that while you don’t recommend adding solids we did to try it out and it has helped improve both the acid reflux and his constipation. My son now has 25 bowel movements daily at almost the exact same times.

          Thank-you for your help.

    Dear Doctor

    Greetings from India !

    I have been reading about your therapy with Nat Phos on GERD in infants and request for your guidance.

    I have a 6weeks old daughter who has been suffering from GERD since week 2. She has been vomiting after almost every other feed and spits up after every feed. Doctors prescribed her an antacid and perinorm drops when the condition worsened. With these meds her situation has improved. She seems to be gaining weight slightly slowly even though she was born at 37 weeks through elective c-section. At present, she weights around 3.7kgs.

    I had already read about Nat Phos so she has been on it for 3 days now. I was giving her one tablet (total 4 in day) after feeds. But that was before I came across your website.

    I have read almost the entire thread so would like to bring to your notice that I am also having two tablets of nat phos 6x after meals (thrice a day). Immunisation is mandatory here so cannot give that a skip. Even during school admissions, vaccination card is a prerequisite. I am still very careful with that I have been eating since my daughter is being breastfed exclusively.

    Seek your advice on how to proceed from here since I have already given her doses for three days.

    Dear Joe,
    I am happy to have heard about your website. My daughter is only 5,5 weeks old but she’s suffering from silent reflux I would say. She is exclusively breastfed and at her worst she will become very restless after nursing. Crying, pulling painful grimaces… I try burping her as much as I can but that doesn’t change the outcome much. She barely sleeps during the day and by night we are all so exhausted- she sometimes spends tghe whole night sleeping and waking up from pain every 15minutes or so and she moans and is just suffering which is hard to watch as other babies get to eat, pee/poop, get changed and sleep… she’s been suffering from 3 weeks. She is constantly swallowing and crying afterwards. Also, very gassy recently with tummy pain. I tried different drops and she is cured on anti colic drops but that doesn’t help with heartburn and reflux. If tese tablets are safe for such a young bsby I am willing to give them a try. I just want her to be pain free so she can rest and grow. And I would use some sleep as well. What do you recommend for us? Will I need to take the tablets myself? I hope I don’t lose weight, I just want her to get better. Thank you so much in advance!

    Hello sir,
    I recently came upon this page and hoping for advice.
    My son is now 8 months and started having reflux about a month after he was born. I feel it was an allergic reaction to accidental feeding of goats milk, unfortunately. He has never been vaccinated or given anymedicine.
    At around 3-4 months I started giving him a probiotic which helped to relieve his symptoms greatly. I also took him to a chiropractor which also helped. He still does vomit occasionally and usually has sour breath and sour smelling stools. His weight gain has been good.

    I tried to feed him fruits (banana, cooked apple, cooked pear) around 6-7 months but he vomited, has diarrhea, rashes on face, and eczema. I gave him bone broth and he threw up some blood. He also throws up a lot more when I consume dairy products (he is breastfed only). For that reason I severely limit pasteurized dairy for myself and have stopped all solids. I’m very worried that his digestion is completely ruined and he will have food allergies forever. Please advise.

    • Joe says:

      You can give him a tablet of Nat Phos 6x Biochemic Cell Salt after every meal and report his response in 48 hours.

      Stay away from Dairy products as he may be sensitive to something in his normal diet.

      How bad is his Eczema?

    I recently learned of your treatment and am looking for guidance. My son is 12 weeks old and has been experiencing some symptoms of reflux for approximately 6 weeks. He spits up frequently and copiously…can be during a feed or multiple times up to an hour afterward. He is exclusively breast fed and not gaining weight well in recent weeks and we are growing concerned. He also gets the hiccups on occasion, his breath is sour, and he often gags and chokes during feeds. He sleeps very well, tolerates lying down well, and does not typically exhibit discomfort during or after feeds or while spitting up. I just ordered Hyland’s Nat Phos 6x. His pediatrician is recommending a trial of Zantac but I would prefer to try a more natural route. I would appreciate any help you can provide. Thanks so much!

    • Joe says:

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

      Babies do not always do a poo daily. Some babies can go up to 5 days to do so. A gentle massage of her abdomen after every feed in a clockwise direction usually stimulates evacuation.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
      Do not give the MMR Vaccine in One shot as there is plenty of evidence on the Web of severe side effects which can result. You are advised to give it in 3 separate shots if you must do so, after baby is 2 years old.

      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby when you start on my therapy.

    Dear sir,

    I have a 1 month old daughter who has exhibited reflux symptoms from birth (gagging, crying on breast, unsettled after feeds, short naps interrupted by discomfort, regular wet hiccups and burps). Her two older siblings had the same issue and ended up on losec. I came across your treatment and would like to employ your protocol. However I am based in Australia and the Nat phos 6x I have purchased is a brand called ‘Martin and Pleasance’. The instructions on the bottle say 1 tablet for adults, 1/2 for infants over 1 yr, and 1/4 for infants of 0-11 months up to 6 times a day. I started giving her 1/2 a tablet a day (even though bottle says 1/4) and have seen improvement (3 days so far) but am concerned that I’m giving her more than recommended dose on the bottle, as these tablets might be larger in size than the Hylands brand (which I know you say are safe to give up to 1 whole tablet up to 6 times a day). The recommended dose of the Hylands brand is 4 tablets for adults and 2 tablets for children 2-6 years up to 8 times a day – so I’m just thinking these might be a lot smaller than the ones I have purchased and don’t want to risk giving her too much! If they are bigger tablets, can you advise if theres a risk I could give her too much if I continue with the 1/2 tab and whether doing so might cause harm or side effects.

    Many thanks to you,

    A

    • Joe says:

      I cannot answer your question about the dose for an infant but you can play it by ear as in any event, Nat Phos 6x is not a drug as you can read by Googling for more information.

      I shall share my therapy below:

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      In your case you can assess its effect on your baby by varying the dosage and observing how baby responds.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

  441. Ames says:

    Thank you for your reply.

    Okay, so there isn’t a risk of giving her too much / harmful effects if I play it by ear and continue to give her the 1/2 each feed?

  442. Ames says:

    Dear Sir,

    My baby has become worse over the last week. She is up most of the night and unsettled most of the day. I am not sure if it is silent reflux or colic – she seems in lots of pain. I am off dairy completely and have been For about 12 days. I’ve been giving her 1/4 dose of the Nat phos and also have been giving 1/4 of the mag phos (in case it is tummy cramping) but it doesn’t appear to be helping. I’m getting desperate – I’m happy to increase her dose to see if it helps but want to make sure it will cause no harm to do so. The bottle of Nat phos I have states ‘each tablet contains 0.5mcg of the Mineral Tissue Salt Sodium Phosphate.’

    • Joe says:

      It is possible that the Nat Phos 6x you have got is not the Biochemic Cell Salt.
      Please verify this and report.

  443. Ames says:

    I believe it’s the same – I’m not 100% sure what terms to check for to confirm? This is the product link to what I have. http://schuesslertissuesalts.com.au/product/nat-phos-schuessler-tissue-salts/

    I’ve upped her to 1/2 again at the moment but only just this afternoon.

  444. Ames says:

    Thank you for your reply sir.

    I think it is the same – They are called schusslers tissue salts. I’m not 100%!sure what term I’m looking for to confirm this? Here is the link to the product details

    http://schuesslertissuesalts.com.au/product/nat-phos-schuessler-tissue-salts/

    I’ve increased dose to 1/2 a tablet just this afternoon. She seems slightly improved but still very uncomfy. It’s early yet though so maybe after a little longer.

  445. Amy Marsland says:

    Because I wasn’t sure if one whole of my Nat phos 6x tablets (Martin and Pleasance brand) would be the same as one of the Hylands brand tablets (the ones which you have noted as safe for an infant to take 1 whole) or if it makes no difference. This is why I was asking if there is a risk of giving too much. So if I give her one whole one of the Martin and Pleasance tissue salt tablet (which directs infants only take 1/4) I can be assured it will not result in overdose or harmful effects. This was my question so I could follow your prescription. Forgive me if I have not articulated this well.

    So I can give her a whole tablet regardless of brand or tablet size?

    • Joe says:

      You first consulted me just 4 days ago and I find that I have patiently responded to 6 posts from you which are about the relative size of the Nat Phos 6x by Martin and Pleasance which you can get in Australia where you live.

      I would like you to know that I am 89 years in age and am not a professional Homeopath although I have studied this science 45 years ago and have modified it to be more curative when compared to the classical therapy which is usually not as effective. You can read all about it on my Website under “The evolution of Joepathy”.

      I regret that I cannot spend any more time on your case as my time is precious. You are advised to follow my prescription for Baby GERD precisely as prescribed and report her progress in a week.

        • Mikki Montenegro says:

          Hello again,

          We were able to get nat phos 6x tablets on January 24 and started giving it to our baby immediately following your standard prescription for baby GERD that we read in the other messages. This is the 5th day he is taking the treatment and he has improved slightly. The reflux is leas frequent but he still wakes up because of his reflux even if he is carried upright. He also still cries in pain and stiffens up when waking with reflux. How long should we expect the treatment to work completely?

          • Joe says:

            Have you studied my prescription in my last post to you?
            Are you giving baby the Nat Phos 6x tablet in halves every time, before and after every feed?

            Have you verified that the Nat Phos 6x is the Biochemic Cell Salt?

            • Mikki Montenegro says:

              Yes, we started on Jan 24 by giving the whole tablets after the baby feeds, we adjusted to half before and after feeding based on your message for us. Our baby feeds very frequently, sometimes every hour or more so i just try to space out giving him the tablets every 2-3 hours.

              Yes, our nat phos is the bio chemical salts. We are lucky that my mom who is studying homeopathy has them.

  448. Danielle says:

    Dear Sir

    I have come across your remedy to treat reflux whilst looking for something to help my daughter who is 5 weeks old at present. I started giving the Nat Phos x6 ten days ago, half a tablet before a feed. I realise now the remedy was changed to half a tablet both before and after a feed but the half a tablet was helping her reflux symptoms so continued with this until 3 days ago when I started giving it every other feed in hope to stop giving it all together.
    The next day my daughters symptoms returned, although she does not appear to be in pain anymore she is still bringing up acid and sometimes will choke on it.
    My question is what do you suggest I do in regards to the dosage I’m giving?
    I appreciate your time and await your reply.
    King regards

    • Joe says:

        Dear sir

        Thank you for your reply. I decided to stop the Nat Phos all together and my daughter has been off them for 48 hours.
        Her reflux has returned so I will be starting again with the Nat Phos, half before a feed and half after.

        When I see symptoms improving how do I start decreasing her off them? I know that are a natural product but I just worry about her being on them long term.

        Thank you for your time.

        • Joe says:

          Nat Phos 6x is not to be compared with the standard PPI drugs that are prescribed by doctors. It is very safe in use and you may give it to baby as prescribed.

          I see that you stopped it and this resulted in her reflux returning. You may experiment by stopping it in a few weeks and when she can do without it, you may stop it at that time.

        Thank you Doctor,
        I started her on this Remedy today. I give her half a tablet and breast milk before feed. But she falls asleep after burping her so I can’t give her the other half after a feed. Should I just continue 1/2 a tablet before a feed. If I don’t see result try to do a whole tablet? Also your copy of When he says that I should take it to before my meals. And to only give her six tablets in a day. Wouldn’t you taking it be too much in her system for the day? She is only three weeks old and 8 lbs. 9 oz.

        • Joe says:

          You will have to use your discretion in following the instructions I have given in my last post as your baby is a Preemie and is only 3 weeks old. You do not have to give her the full tablet if her problem can be controlled with just half.

                    You first contacted me on March 5 and stated that you had a Preemie 3 weeks old born 2 weeks early and inquired on the dosage of Nat Phos 6x which I use exclusively to treat Baby GERD. (Not GORD).

                    I responded with my default therapy for Baby GERD.

                    I was surprised to receive your post which had arrived here at 2.32PM which to me, seemed somewhat belligerent:

                      I she is 7 weeks old now. We didn’t see any results with 1/2 after every feed. They do dissolve quickly so would you suggest me to give her 1/2 before and feed and 1/2 after directly without disolving in breast milk. Up to 6 tablets for the day

                      Thank you for your concern about my recent illness which was due to my Prostate playing up which had to be treated with the correct antibiotic. I am OK today.

                      You can safely give baby the Nat Phos 6x for as long as you observe that it is helping her. You will then taper it down and stop it when you see that she does not need it anymore.

    Hello,

    My daughter is 3 weeks old today and seems to have reflux. What concerns me the most is that her stools have become lime green instead of mustard yellow. Is that a side effect of the reflux? I have started the Nat Phos yesterday. How long before I start to see results? She seems so uncomfortable. 🙁

    Thank you immensely for your help and all that you do for babies around the world.

    • Joe says:

      Green stools in a 3 week old baby can indicate that you are not feeding her sufficiently.

      I presume you are Breast feeding her.

      Report response and do not give her Nat Phos (6x?) without permission, especially in the case of an infant.

      • Dear Joe,

        I am breastfeeding exclusively. Her stools are not dark green, which would indicate foremilk/hindmilk imbalance; they are lime green. The consistency is the same as normal breastfed poops. She has sufficient urine/poop soiled diapers per day, and is gaining a lot of weight, more than she would be supposed to, in fact.

      I am not the only Homeopath that does so as the Drs Banerji of Kolkatta also use a parallel protocol as they too have discovered that the classical rules do not work as effectively as the direct “This for That” therapy I use.

      Glad that you too are interested in my Joepathy and if you have any questions, I shall be glad to answer them.

  452. Teressa says:

    Greetings,
    I appreciate the information you share here! My son is 16 months old and apparently still has silent reflux (he had it more obviously when he was an infant and I foolishly thought it had ended, while I concentrated on his eczema). The ENT doctor said reflux is likely what is causing his laryngeomalasia and inflammation of his adenoids, both of which lead to almost exclusive mouth-breathing and nearly constant congestion. He wanted to prescribe omeprizole to control the reflux, but was willing for me to try the homeopathic remedy instead. I’ve seen some posts where you say to give one tablet after a meal and other posts where you say to give half before and half after a meal. What would you recommend for my son? Thank you for your time!

    • Joe says:

      I have changed over to half before and after on the reports of many mothers.

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      Babies do not always do a poo daily. Some babies can go up to 5 days to do so. A gentle massage of her abdomen after every feed in a clockwise direction usually stimulates evacuation.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
      Do not give the MMR Vaccine in One shot as there is plenty of evidence on the Web of severe side effects which can result. You are advised to give it in 3 separate shots if you must do so, after baby is 2 years old.

      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby if you start on my therapy.

      How is baby’s Eczema today?

      • Teressa says:

        Thank you for the clarification on dosage! Baby’s eczema is not too bad today. He scratches his forehead, and if his nails are not trimmed meticulously it breaks the skin and takes longer to heal. Otherwise, he has dry scaly patches on the backs of his legs and arms and a few dry patches on his back and scalp. It all gets slightly inflamed when he is given cow’s milk formula, although he is not officially allergic to milk. I give him goat’s milk formula in addition to table food. I will begin the reflux remedy tonight. Thank you!

        • Joe says:

          Do let me know if you would like me to prescribe for his Baby Eczema as I have pioneered a protocol which will CURE it which I can do after his GERD has stabilized.

          • Teressa says:

            I would most certainly be interested in your baby eczema protocol! If you’re willing to explain it now, I will file it for when his reflux has been controlled. Thank you!

    Dear Dr De Livera,
    I hope you are well.
    I already wrote to you on different thread but not sure exactly where and after ready other people’s stories I think I should give you more details. I apologise for the confusion, I haven’t slept properly in a while.

    My baby is 9wks old (5kg) and has silent reflux since day 3. She’s been on Ranitidine 0.8, 3x a day for 4 wks now and it seems to work but I am really uncomfortable with giving her meds that reduce acid. I think acid is there for a reason.
    I have stopped the meds on Friday and gave her half a tablet of NP before feeding and half after but it was quite difficult to judge when to give them because she feeds constantly during the day. ( I am breastfeeding.) Her symptoms seemed to deteriorate rapidly during the day (after 3 tablets) so I panicked, stopped the NP and went back to Ranitidine because I thought she was reacting badly to the lactose in the NP. I have been dairy free for 5 wks now and I feel horrible after this experiment because her symptoms are worse than they were before, she has difficulties falling asleep and wakes up quickly, is very unsettles and cries more than before.
    Was it a mistake to stop the NP? I couldn’t see her in pain again… Could you please indicate after how many day can I see an improvement and how long does the treatment usually lasts?
    Thank you in advance for your support.
    Thank you.
    Kind regards,
    Silvia

      I have just had surgery for a Cataract implant at my age of 89 years and can see very well.

      Babies usually respond to Nat Phos 6x Biochemic Cell Salts very quickly and I hope you got the correct product. You state:
      “Her symptoms seemed to deteriorate rapidly during the day (after 3 tablets) so I panicked, stopped the NP and went back to Ranitidine”.

      You cannot possibly expect to cure her GERD with just 3 tablets in halves when she has been having the problem for 5 weeks when you used Ranitidine. You will have to continue the NP6x after every feed but not exceed 6 tablets in 24 hours and I shall share my therapy for Baby GERD below.

    Hello, doctor! I came across your website as I desperately try to help my 2-year-old (birth: 8/14/17). He is having severe acid reflux (silent) for a few months, but I just figured it out recently. Please advise me on meal times, what foods to avoid, homeopathic solutions. He had it as a newborn and was prescribed Zantac, which I stopped giving him after a few months. He seemed fine until a few months ago. Currently, he seems to have lost a little bit of weight and is tiny for his age. He cries a lot through the night, saying “his mouth is dirty” (probably food/acid backing up) and his throat hurts. He seems to be always swallowing something during the day, complains about it, and is very uncomfortable at bedtime, taking a long time to fall asleep and waking up crying and complaining several times at night. Since he’s older, I wasn’t sure of the dosage of nat phos 6x to give him or even if something else would be advisable/better. Thank you for your help and time!

    • Joe says:

      It is very likely that your son suffers from Hyperacidity or GERD and the simple solution it to give him both Nat Phos 6x and Robinia Pseudacacia 30c in the Wet dose.

      You will order NP6x Biochemic Cell Salt which should be available in a Health Food outlet and the Robinia Pseudacacia 30 can be mail ordered from:

      Washington Homeopathic Products
      http://www.homeopathyworks.com
      1 800 336 1695

      You will give him 2 tablets NP6x after every meal and when he is OK you may stop it.
      The Robinia P is to be given twice daily.It will reduce the acid flow into his stomach.

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy (Robinia P) is made as follows:

      Order the remedy in the Ethanol / Alcohol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
      Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a dose which is 5ml or a teaspoonful as prescribed.

      Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done at least 6 times before sipping a teaspoonful.

      Report response in a week when I am confident he will be OK.

    Dear Sir,

    Please could you help. My baby is 3 months old.

    He has been very unsettled since birth – breast fed + One bottle of formula in the evening.

    He is very gassy and also constipated -I just got back from the hospital as he had not passed stool in a few days and was screaming to. They gave him a glycerin suppostory which helped him pass but has still been screaming and crying.

    They think he has silent reflux as:

    he has difficulty burping
    constantly arches his back in pain
    very stiff body
    constipated
    very very gassy
    drinks very fast and constantly wants to feed but cries during and after feeding.
    he had quite a fast labour (5 minutes)

    do you think Nat phos x6 will help him? if so how should i give it to him – how much and before or after a feed?

    Hyland’s, #10 Nat. Phos. 6X, shall i purchase this one?

        Dear sir,
        Thank you for your response. As I don’t have access to a store near me from where I can get the nat phos 6x, I have ordered them online. Once i receive them and start administering them to her I will post an update.

        Also, do u recommend any brand that I can get in India? One brand “SBL” has alcohol in it. I presume that’s not not okay for the baby. Please advice.

        • Joe says:

          Nat Phos 6x is a Biochemic Cell Salt which is marketed only in Tablet form in which there is absolutely no alcohol used in the manufacturing process.

    Dear sir,

    (I’m posting again since my last reply isn’t showing up)

    Thank you for your response. So I’m assuming as long as it’s bio chemical, has active ingredient as nat phos, has a potency of 6x and in tablet form it should be fine(?)

    Also, the ingredient “alcohol” is mentioned only in one of the websites and not others (for the brand “SBL”). Please, if u can, kindly give me a go for the below product. That would help me a lot.

          Hello sir,
          Hope you’re doing well. I have received the nat phos and have given 6 tablets in the last 24 hours. I am also taking the tablets after each meal. I have not seen any improvement as of now. I shall continue giving her the tablets. Please mention when can I expect to see any improvement?

          Thank you

          • Joe says:

            Your baby will improve and her GERD will be controlled with the Nat Phos 6x you are giving her in halves before and after each feed.

            If you find that there is no improvement in 48 hours you will contact me again when I shall prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of the NP6x which it will do by reducing the HCL acid which your baby seems to be overproducing in her stomach.

            In the meanwhile you can order Robinia Pseudacacia 30c in the standard pellets and await further instructions.

            • Aishwarya says:

              Dear sir,
              It has been 48 hours with no improvement. She has been spitting up more often and is having trouble sleeping.

              Also she keeps dozing off after each feed and doesn’t want to take any more milk (which has the second half of tablet). Can i give her one tablet before feed?

              Dear sir,
              I’m giving her nat phos 6x after every other feed since she feeds every 2-3 hours. Also I had ordered nat phos 6x from rxhomeo before confirming SBL with you. SBL showed no effect so I tried giving one tablet of the Rxhomeo brand and I saw improvement. I’m continuing to give it and she’s sleeping a bit better.

              Also I have ordered and received Robinia Pseudacacia 30c pellets. Please instruct me on what to do next.

                The problem I have is that your baby is only a month old.
                At this tender age I have to be very careful in prescribing for her.
                Continue with the NP6x as she is improving and report back in 48 hours.

                      It seems to me that Baby is not responding to the Nat Phos 6x alone and it is time to add Robinia Pseudacacia 30c in the Wet dose to reinforce its action. This remedy will reduce the Hcl acid flow in baby’s stomach and works in a similar manner to the standard PPI drugs like Nexium which are usually prescribed by doctors even though they are aware that they are dangerous.

                      You will make it as per instructions below and give half teaspoonful, twice daily.

                      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

                      Get Robinia P 30c in the standard pellets and insert just 6 pellets into a 500ml bottle of Spring Water.
                      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
                      Shake the bottle hard before you give baby half teaspoonful twice daily.

                      You will stop the Robinia as soon as you find that baby is OK but you will continue the Nat Phos for as long as you feel that it is needed. Nat Phos is NOT a drug and is absolutely safe in use for long periods.

                      Report progress in 48 hours.

                      Please note that I am reluctant to give this remedy to a month old infant and you will keep me informed of baby’s response daily.

                      Dear sir,

                      Thank you for responding. Would Evian water work?
                      Also please advice if I should wait if you’re reluctant to give this remedy.

                    • Joe says:

                      Evian as I remember is a bubbling water and if so it will be loaded with the chemicals in the source, which will antidote the Homeopathy. Look for a still water and check the label for more information.

                      You do not have to be concerned about giving the RP 30 as it cannot be confused with Nexium and other PPI drugs that doctors prescribe even for babies when the FDA has warned against its use by adults.

                      You may use it safely since baby seems to be suffering unnecessarily.

                      Thank you. I am having trouble finding a pure spring water here in my city. Do you recommend any specific brand which I can try to get or is there any alternative water that I can use? Please advice.

                    • Joe says:

                      I have continued giving the wet dose and found that she’s sleeping a little better. She still is arching her back while sleeping and after feeds. I shall keep you posted about the progress.

                    • Joe says:

                      Glad that baby is responding positively.

                      I have been giving her the Nat Phos 6x and RP 30c as per you’re prescription. She still has the back arching and is distressed when put down. And she keeps swallowing the regurgitating spit up back down. Please mention when can I see somebody relief in her.

                      Thanks a ton

                    • Joe says:

                      Your baby is under 2 months and I have already prescribed 2 remedies that have been used by over 500 mothers to whose babies I have prescribed the same medicines.

                      You state that your baby is showing signs of distress and you have the option to consult a doctor who will invariably prescribe a dangerous PPI drug or you can continue with mine as they are very safe for infants.

                      I regret that I cannot prescribe any more powerful remedy as your baby is too young to take them.

                    • Aishwarya says:

                      Dear sir,

                      Thank you for your time. I shall continue with the Nat Phos 6x.

  461. Holly H says:

    5 week infant with silent reflux… have half a tab this am with morning feed and symptoms went away! Yay! What dosage and frequency should I be administering??? Thanks!!

    • Joe says:

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

      Babies do not always do a poo daily. Some babies can go up to 5 days to do so. A gentle massage of her abdomen after every feed in a clockwise direction usually stimulates evacuation.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
      Do not give the MMR Vaccine in One shot as there is plenty of evidence on the Web of severe side effects which can result. You are advised to give it in 3 separate shots if you must do so, after baby is 2 years old.

      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby when you start on my therapy.

        Hello,

        I have heard of your remedy for baby reflux off a post on the baby center app. My baby is 3 weeks old and has severe acid reflux he is inconsolable and never sleeps. He is always in pain and spits up a lot, chokes and coughs. I really want to give him a more natural remedy as the doctor has him on Zantac. He is also formula fed and I would like to know what formula is better and how to give him the doses for Nat Phos 6x? I appreciate your help!

    Hello Sir,

    I have a 7 week old baby who has been struggling with silent acid reflux and gas for several weeks now. He is formula fed with Soy based formula. He started out with milk based formula but the doctor recommended that we change formulas so we have tried 4 different formulas and still no help. He was prescribed Ranitidine which he is taking now, but it’s not much help either and I would really prefer he not take any medication that can have long term effects. Based on reading your website, I have purchased Hyland’s Nat Phos 6X and am ready to use. Can you please let me know how I should give to my baby? Thank you very much!

  466. Richard says:

    I have a son who is almost 9 weeks. He has reflux issues. When we lay him down at night he fuses. After the feeding in the middle of the night he is extra fussy and wont fall asleep unless i have him in a boppy. During the day my wife says he is also fussy and she tries everything from feeding him upright, to keeping him upright after a feeding, to making sure he burps. He does not spit up after/during every feeding but does sometimes have a big spit up.

    Our pediatrician had him on Zantac but after discussing with my wife we decided to stop that after about a week. We recently took him to a chiropractor to get aligned but our next appointment isn’t until next week.

    Please let me know your thought if you think the Nat Phos 6x could help or if you would like more information from me.

      I note from the last paragraph of your post that you have read the therapy I always prescribe for baby GERD and you should hopefully discover in under 24 hours that he will respond and his problems will stabilise.

    Hi Joe,

    My 10 month daughter recently started suffering from Acid Reflux after a really bad 2 month long stay at Kaiser and the use of unnecessary feeding tubes(they thought she had gastroparesis).

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby when you start on my therapy.

      I noticed that you have addressed me by my given name, Joe.
      Here in Sri Lanka where I live, we have a modicum of respect for age.
      I am over 90.

    I have read over these posts and think I understand the dosage of Nat Pho’s, but would like to give you specifics of my situation and seek your advice. My son is 5 Weeks, 11 pounds. He is not on any medicine and he has not been diagnosed with reflux, but spits up a fair amount and when laid on his back after eating, even an hour after seems bothered, Starts grunting and it sounds like milk is coming up his nose. I think he has what is called silent reflux. It’s causing us lots of long nights. I would like to begin nat pho’s. Can you confirm i have this right? Give the baby 1/2 tablet dissolved in breast milk before and after each feed. He eats approx 7-8 times a day so i will skip some feeds so i don’t exceed 6 tablets.

    Can i skip the midnight/ 3 am feed for convenience or is it best not to skip back to back feeds?

    I will also take the nat pho’s tablet (2) myself – 3x a day after meals.

    Anything else i am missing?

    Thank you for this advice and your website with such helpful information.

    • Joe says:

      I can see that your son is your first born and it is very likely that you are over anxious in caring for him. I would suggest that you change your natural instinct to fuss over him as I too have been like you and at age 90, I believe that I am qualified to advise you. I am the father of 3 sons and the eldest arrived 10 years after we were married in 1958. You can perhaps visualise the reason for our anxiety and I remember how my wife and I used to take turns to stay awake to verify that our eldest son was breathing! He too was suffering from Baby GERD and would projectile vomit over my shoulder often and what is worse is that I was not into Homeopathy at that time in 1968, as I was first fascinated by this science a few years later and studied it in depth when I could spare the time, as Homeopathy is not my profession. You can perhaps read the outcome of my studies by doing a search on Google under “Joepathy” as I do not follow the strict rules of classical Homeopathy and have achieved some interesting cures in following my Joepathy in curing cases which many qualified homeopaths would have not dared to prescribe for.

      You have got my therapy spot on and all I can advise you right now is simply to let baby grow into childhood which I am sure he will succeed in doing, as long as you do not overdo your act in caring for him like waking him up for a feed when he is fast asleep. You do not also have to give him the NP6x unless it is called for as I note that it is you that diagnosed hie GERD simply because he spits out some milk which should stop if you do not overfeed him and burp him immediately after. You do not also have to give him the NP6x unless he needs it as you are taking it and your own milk will pass on the effect to baby.

      • Danielle C says:

        Hi Dr. Livera,

        Thank you for the advice. I’m not yet taking NP6x but had planned to. I will try just taking it myself first. This is my second child, but i don’t disagree i may be a bit anxious. Appreciate you’re advice and if needed i will come back with more questions.

  469. Minha filha tem refluxo e dor de garganta recorrente ela tem 6 anos qual a. dosagem desse nat phos 6 Posso dar ?

  470. Tahir says:

    Hi Sir/Dr Livera,
    My wife gave birth to a beautiful girl via C-Sec on the 6th Dec 2019. Since then I myself noticed she was sneezing a lot and grunting a little like she had a dry sore throat but didn’t think much of it. She was sleeping very well, around 3-4 hours and drinking well (expressed milk as she wasn’t latching [clue 1] and topped up with formula) until we were told she was Jaundice and they had her in UV light for a few hours which was painful to say the least to watch.
    When she was discharged my partner continued expressing and topping her up with formula until she started throwing up milk [clue 2]. We initially thought that it may have been due to something in the breast milk so we decided to feed her formula exclusively. However she continued to throw up occasionally and she then appeared congested [clue 3]. We then assumed that she had the cold as there was a lot family and friends who had the “bug” and we assumed it was passed on. I used a nasal aspirator to clear her nose and continued as usual. She still slept well during the day, 3-4hrs and drank well. Her nights were more difficult with her only resting around 2 hours. We just attributed this to her body adjusting to life outside the womb.
    Fast forward 3 weeks and she started grunted really bad (throat sounds dry and sounds like she is trying to clear her throat), burping up some milk, I noticed she would bring up milk and swallow and could tell by her facial expression that it was irritating her. We persevered thinking it was temporary; however 2 days ago she would only sleep for 30 mins during the day, getting hiccups for frequently trying to sleep and hardly sleeping at all on a night. Her feeding dropped dramatically, from around 120-90ml to around 30-60ml and she was really unsettled drinking [clue 4]. She started arching her back and being very rigid at times [clue 5]. We took her to the GP and he prescribed Infacol, I was not happy at all with this, despite telling the GP she clearly has reflux and not wind/colic. We took her home and decided against giving her any Infacol as my research showed it only made reflux worse. Yesterday, her conditioned worsened, arching her back more, being rigid more often, grunting a lot even lying inclined, unsettling and clearly in discomfort. I took her to a walk in clinic and explained yet again her situation and was prescribed Gaviscon. Having researched online, we realised that she would get constipated with Gaviscon, however we felt she needed a good feed and rest as a priority and to minimise the chance of constipation we gave her half the recommended dose instead. We have seen a much needed improvement and on the first dose, she drank a full 4 ounces and slept 3 hours which she hadn’t done in the last week and very little arching. Now we have her constipation to deal with.
    Now that the background Information is out of the way, my research led to your website and the Nat Phos treatment. Before I proceed, I would like to add that I am against Vaccines and all pharma medication and my daughter has not had any vaccines etc and is the way nature intended and should be . Also both I and my partner suffer from Acid Reflux and heartburn and take omneprazole and I guess as my partner had this during pregnancy, our daughter also has it.
    I would like to ask if I should proceed with your recommended default therapy for Baby GERD and start with ½ tablet or should I start her straight on 1 complete tablet? Also, I know you have stated that this only needs to be dissolved in a little milk or even a teaspoon of water, I was wondering, could I just add it to her milk formula during feed time or does it have to be after her feed?
    Many thanks for taking the time to read my long post and I look forward to your support and kind help.

    • Joe says:

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

      Babies do not always do a poo daily. Some babies can go up to 5 days to do so. A gentle massage of her abdomen after every feed in a clockwise direction usually stimulates evacuation.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
      Do not give the MMR Vaccine in One shot as there is plenty of evidence on the Web of severe side effects which can result. You are advised to give it in 3 separate shots if you must do so, after baby is 2 years old.

      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby when you start on my therapy and report baby’s response 48 hours after you start her on my ” Joepathy.”

    Thank you.
    I will source the Nat Phos and report back 48 hourse after administrating the Nat Phos 🙂

    Take care

  472. Tahir says:

    Hi
    Can i just query, if its no more than 6 tablets in 24 hours and we give more than 6 feeds; how is it possible to stretch these over 24 hours?
    It would work with half a tablet on each feed, or is that not so effective to start with?
    Many Thanks

    • Joe says:

      You may increase the dosage to 8 tablets per day but you must remember that we are dealing with your baby and cannot afford to overdose and cause any harm in doing so.

  473. Tahir says:

    Hi Sir,
    Just to give you an update:
    We received the tablets on the 9th and started our daughter on them on the 10th.
    We couldn’t source the Hylands brand within the UK so we purchased the next best brand from Holland and Barrett in the UK
    https://www.hollandandbarrett.com/shop/product/schuessler-tissue-salts-nat-phos-10-60020351
    However we have noticed with these that you have to really grind them down with something like a “rolling pin” in order for it to “mostly” dissolve in water.
    We started to give her ½ a tablet before and after her feed, however she would fall asleep after her feed so we couldn’t give her the other half and made a decision to only give her the Nat Phos before her feed (only the ½ to start with as it doesn’t dissolve very well). She has responded to this positively, with her sleeping better, appears more settled and has less reflux. However she is still grunting a lot during her sleep and her throat appears sore, as per the sound of her voice. She still occasionally gets hiccups which cause her to wake up, I’m guessing due to her reflux. We therefore decided yesterday to give her a full tablet before her feed and we will see how she progresses over the next few days. In the meantime I have ordered the Hylands brand from the states, but they won’t be here until the 22nd /23rd. Is there anything that you would advise in the meantime.?
    I have also ordered some probiotics to help settle her tummy. 🙂

        My sone is 5 years old he was born with sever accident reflux where he was going blue and tensing then screaming. At 2 weeks he was admired to hospital with bronchitis and then treated for it with lansaprosol and then found out he had a cows milk protein allergy due to watery and bloody stools. He was started on neocat lcp and a thickener carobel.
        He grew out of reflux and cows milk allergy so doctors said. As from 2018 at age 4 he had signs of accid reflux which are stomach pain loss of appetite back pain heart burn and regurgitation
        He has lost wait and is constipated. In 2019 he had a endoscopy which doctors said was fine but small intestine shoes slight allergy. He is still on medication for reflux. I think he may have a allergy to gluten as is stools are grey and has a item deficiency now on item supplest. He’s has had he’s tonsils and Adenoids remove last week doctors said may help with reflux and had quite a lot of croop in winters and soar throat previously to op. I’ve requested a test for celiac and to see a dietitian this weekend. His teeth are looking grey and and brittle due to reflux he is still complaining of reflux even though he has lansaprosol and Gaviscon I’ve read all the Above advice you have given to parents and I would be more than thankful if you could maybe help my sone. Regards Rachel gaskin

        • Joe says:

          It seems a pity that you did not consult me 5 years ago as I believe that I could have spared your son all the trauma that he has and is suffering from GERD, which has been exacerbated by the many drugs and surgical experiments that he has been subjected to so very unnecessarily by his doctors, in not using the simple and safe therapy aka “Joepathy” that I have prescribed for seemingly impossible cases, which have invariably lead to a complete cure of the patient in a few weeks.

          You appear to have studied my therapy for GERD and you may have discovered that I am 90 years, but am still as active as I was 10 years ago simply because I do not take any drugs but depend on my own therapy aka “Joepathy” to look after the ailments that everyone suffers from like colds, for which I have a CURE if nipped in the bud.

          I would suggest that you STOP all drugs and just use my default therapy for GERD below which I am confident will help your son to recover from his current misery.

          THERAPY GERD

          It is very likely that you suffer from Hyperacidity or Gastritis, aka GERD (Gastro Esophageal Reflux Disease) and I shall copy my default therapy that has helped hundreds of patients to overcome this disease for which doctors usually prescribe PPI (Proton Pump Inhibitor) drugs which are dangerous and can cause many other more serious problem when used in the long term.

          You will hopefully discover that my therapy aka “Joepathy” will help you within 24 hours after you have taken your first dose after a meal.

          The remedies you will order are as follows:

          Nat Phos 6x dose 2-4 tablets taken immediately after each of 3 meals.
          This remedy accelerates the passage of food down the gut and prevents the formation of acid which would otherwise reflux causing GERD.

          Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily.
          This remedy works to repair the damaged Esophagus which has metastasised to resemble the gut to deal with the Hcl refluxed into it causing severe distress. Arnica works with the Nat Phos to speedily cure the problem.

          You can also take a Probiotic daily for a week. A Probiotic will help by changing the balance of the Bacteria in the Stomach and will contribute to your cure and help to ensure that your problem does not recur. After your problem with GERD is stabilised you can take the Arnica in the Wet dose nightly before bed for life. You do not need to take Nat Phos daily but you will keep a stock to be used whenever you feel uncomfortable after a meal when you will take 2-3 tablets as necessary.

          Please observe the following simple rules:

          Do not eat large meals. Eat small meals but more often if you feel hungry. Do not drink more that a few sips of water after your meals. This is to prevent the further dilution of your gastric juice which can then reflux into your Esophagus which results in GERD.

          It is important that you do not go to bed for at least 2 hours after dinner as food will take about this time to digest and it is best to stay awake and upright to enable your food to digest before going to bed.

          No fatty food, alcohol, coffee, preserved meats like sausages, ham, bacon as they contain Saltpeter which will antidote the remedies listed immediately.

          If you suffer from a stomach ache or you feel your stomach puffing up before a meal during the day between meals, this is usually due to hunger pains, caused by your gastric juices attacking the inner lining (Villa) in the wall of your stomach. The simple remedy is to eat some food like a biscuit or a banana between meals to keep the gastric juice away from digesting the stomach wall which results in a stomach ache which in some cases can be acute.

          You must drink at least 3 liters of liquids, preferably water daily and you must also exercise for at least half hour daily. It is important to sweat it out as this is all part of my therapy to overcome GERD.

          The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

          Order the remedy in a 5ml Liquid Alcohol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
          Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
          Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
          Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
          Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done every time before sipping a capful of the bottle twice daily.

          It is understood that the patient will stop all other drugs which s/he may be taking for this ailment.
          Do not use Coffee, Cola beverages, preserved foods like sausages, ham and bacon as they contain Saltpeter.

          You will also add Robinia Pseudacacia 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily to reduce the acid flow into his stomach.

        • Joe says:

          Why don’t you first start baby on my therapy and report his response later?

          Babies seem to dislike the taste of the dissolved tablet in their feed but if your baby does not do so you may dissolve it.

          The reason I specified that the tablet be dissolved and inserted into his mouth is to ensure that he does not choke on it, as some tablets do not dissolve instantly.

    Dear Sir,
    I am extremely thankful for your work, your therapy came even to Poland, Europe. I’ve already read a lot of your posts and parents’ comments, but hope to ask you few more questions.
    Our daugther is 1 year old, weights 17lb, she suffered an undiagnosed gerd since birth, when she was 6 months old we finally discovered what is causing all those problems. Unfortunatelly she took omeprazol for 6 months with 5 unsuccess tries of getting rid of this drug. We left it two days ago when found your therapy, and started with Nat Phos x6.

    1. Her stomach is extremely shrinken and the biggest ammount of milk that she can eat for one time is 1oz (30ml), after 30 minutes she asks again. Even a little bit bigger amount causes huge gerd, even when she was on high dose of omeprazole she wasn’t able to drink more.
    She eats 15 times during the day (of which 3 are solid, the rest is mostly my breastmilk and some formula when I dont have more milk), and about 5 times during night sleep – then she drinks a little bit more becasue she doesn’t control herself so much while sleeping,
    I found your recommendation for one parent that in such a case we can increase the number of peelets from 6 to 8, but this is the maximum for 24h. I gave her a half of the pellet for one meal, not exceding 8. It’s probably too small amount because its a little bit worse than on omperazole. Should we try to pick 8 meals from those 20 and then do the standard half pellet before, half pellet after meal?

    2. I read that I should drink wet doses of Arnica Montana 30ch, and Nux Vomica 30ch – for me or Infant? it’s also on alcohol
    Is it possible to make them liquid from granules? They don’t have others in my country, and other countries do not ship to Poland.
    I found the info below at this website how to make it: http://oaks.nvg.org/home-remedies.html
    not sure if this is right and what about the amounts 30ch?

    I will be more than thankful for you help, we want to cure her so much.
    Sorry for my english, kindly regards, Ewelina Prokopek

    “Homeopathic remedies that won’t cost you much
    Now comes another secret to make life easy. First buy a tiny glass of the homeopathic remedy you are after. Next dissolve 2-3 pellets (pills) from it in water. You should crush them first, then add clean water. Then shake well for, say, fifty times. And there you have your own remedy made on top of a tiny fraction of what you bought.

    To spell out the advantages: One bought glass may serve you in this way, on and on, for years. Otherwise, if you take the pellets “bare”, you may have to buy dozens of glasses, each glass costing quite a lot. This is how to save you such expences. To some it matters very much.

    At any rate, take off from homeopathic remedies that can be bought at pharmacies or special shops. The way to cut down costs to a fraction is shown to you here, in graphic details

    If you are arthritic or feeble, maybe “shaking up” your own home remedy is a bit hard to do. A round of diluting-and-shaking might go well in such cases too. it is up to you, after trying out the home-making process just a bit.”

    • Joe says:

      I have just read your post and am very concerned at your report of your 1 year old’s weight of 17lb which is due to her not being able to digest your Breast Milk. The Omeprazole would have made her condition worse as you have already observed.

      You are fortunate that you located my Website and have already got the Nat Phos 6x which you will give her as prescribed in my default prescription below.

      You will add:
      Robinia Pseudacacia 30c which you can get in pellets and use 8 pellets in 50ml water to make the Wet dose. This remedy will reduce the flow of Hcl Acid into baby’s stomach and help her to digest your milk. Give it twice daily.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby when you start on my therapy.

      You may like to know that I celebrated my 90th Birthday last October and am very fit as I do NOT take any drugs. I only use my own Homeopathy when needed.

        Thank you extremely much Sir!
        Hopefully Robinia Pseudacacia 30c will be delivered on Tuesday.
        „8 pellets in 50ml water” – this ammount twice a day? Sorry, I’m not dureń info I understand well what does Wet dose mean.
        Does it matters if it is given around meal or it should be on empty stomach?
        Thank you so much and congratulation for your counsiously gained health to 90 years old!

          I am relieved that you contacted me in time to correct my prescription which should read:

          8 Pellets in 500ml water. (Not 50ml water)
          My apologies for this oversight which is perhaps due to my age.

          You will give a dose twice daily and this should hopefully help baby’s GERD.

          Do not follow the instructions you have quoted from:
          http://oaks.nvg.org/home-remedies.html

          Report on baby’s response to the NP 6x and the Robinia P in a week.

          • Ewelina says:

            Dear Sir, sorry for late answer. There was a delay in delivery of Robinia and today is 1week2nd day of taking both NatPhos and Robinia.
            We really appreciate your help. What we observed:
            – Her appetite for solid foods improved
            – During night when she starts crying, arching her body after feeding we give her a tablet and we see that she has a relief, still arching, rigid and swallowing noisly but in many cases able to sleep on me vertically,
            – without any drugs she was totally refusing to eat and drink, on ‘proton pump inhibitors’ she was able to eat small ammounts, on Joepathy she is able to eat small amounts also but without side effects that medication gives,
            – We see some improvement, not very big, but it’s not getting worse which is very important.
            Thank you! Is there anything more that we can do or we just need time? after eating she still shows discomfort, she is rigid, we can hear her swallowing, she still has sour breath, sleeps only vertically.
            Please Sir, could you answer three important questions:
            – “wet dose is a large teaspoonful or capfull of the bottle” it means 5ml or 2,5ml? we are not sure becease of the word “large”
            – Is Robinia Pseudacia neutralizing the acid or increasing it helping to digest faster?
            – what about NatPhos – is it neutralizing the acid or increasing it in the stomach?
            Really appreciate all your affords, many thanks, Ewelina

    Hello sir,

    I have tried searching through your previous comments on this post, but I did not see anything related to babies born with Tracheoesophageal Fistula. Our son was repaired on day 2 of life, but has had continuous reflux his entire 11 months. He has been on a high dosage of Nexium for 6 months, and for obvious reasons, I have concerns about continuing this for a long period of time. He has his esophagus dilated every 3-4 months, and each time his esophagus shows GERD, esophagitis, and lots of red irritation. I fear he is outgrowing his Nexium dosage but my bigger fear is offering him more. Based on his medical history, do you still recommend your usual babies with GERD approach?

    I appreciate your time in reading this, and am so thankful for any insight you may have.

    From Oklahoma,
    Erin

    • Joe says:

      Your baby’s problem with Tracheo-esophageal Fistula is indeed very rare and this is the reason why you did not see any previous cases on my Website.

      It appears that the surgery on the second day after birth has created some impediment to the normal growth of his Esophagus which has to be dilated every 3 months.

      You can safely replace the Nexium that you have been giving him with Nat Phos 6x as this is far more effective than the drug which is often connected with Brain damage and Cancer with use in the long term.

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

      Babies do not always do a poo daily. Some babies can go up to 5 days to do so. A gentle massage of her abdomen after every feed in a clockwise direction usually stimulates evacuation.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.

    Dear mr Delivera,
    I am very eager to try your recommendation on Nat Phos on my 11 week son who has been diagnosed with silent reflux since he was 4 weeks old. He has been medicated with Inexium since. I understand that i shouldnt mix Nat Phos with other medicines, but with inexium you have to decrease dose slowly over time, 1 month.
    Would it be OK to mix while we decrease Inexium or Shall i wait?

    Also, by mistake i ordered Nat Phos 9x instead of Nat Phos 6x
    Can i use this or Shall i reorder?

    Thank you in advance for helping and advicing.
    I am very grateful.

    Kind regards

    I have a 10 weeks old baby girl who was diagnosed with acid reflux issue at 6 weeks of age. The doctor prescribed her 1ml famotidine twice a day for 10 days. The conditions improved after 13th day the symptoms cane back and i was asked to continue the medicine for two more weeks. The signs of reflux keep coming back once the medicine discontinues. I came across homeopathy medicine to treat reflux.
    Will you be able to prescribe me the dose for 10 weeks old baby? Also i would like to know the difference between mag phos 6x and nat phos 6x. As i read on the internet that they both work for reflux. Please guide me i will be grateful

    Sorry sir ican see my comment hasn’t worked so I will retype i hope this finds you well.
    I have a four week old baby girl who is currently suspected acid reflux has been given dairy free milk to rule out dairy intollerance as her older brother suffered with the same i did some research and your name and experience was highly recommended.i am determined to not let my little girl go though what my son did several milks and medicines and lots of pain. My daughters doctor has suggested the next step to be omeprazole! She is unable to sleep becoming more fussy and in pain every day strains fidgets crys cam you please help me as I know she is only so young she was born weighing 9 pound 11 her last weigh in was 2 weeks ago and was 10 pound 4 but since lockdown we are unable to see health visitor or gp.thanks so much for your time.rachael

    thank you so much for your quick reply I have ordered the nat phos x6 but won’t get here till between Friday and Tuesday.once this milk has finished the doctor has recommended we go back on to a standard formula.so I shall reply with update next week thank again for your time.

  483. Rachael gentile says:

    morning sir I hope this finds you well my daughter has been on nat phos since yesterday seems to have a little more spit up more slobber her sleep was poor yesterday.been giving the dose as directed.does it get worse before it gets better? Is there any signs it is going to work? Thankyou for your time.rachael

    • Joe says:

      My long experience with NP6x confirms that it works very quickly. If it does not do so, you should check the label and ensure that it is in tablet form and that it is marked
      “Biochemic Cell Salt”.

      You are advised to continue it as prescribed for baby.

  484. Rachael gentile says:

    It is in tablet form it seems that she is more uncomfortable with her stomach than the acid? Can you recommend anything to go along with it? She is fidgety and restless but doesn’t scream or arch back.she is unable to relax.thsnks again.

    • Joe says:

      I looked back on your case and find that your baby is not on Breast milk as you started her at week 2 on formula. You state that you did so as you did not wish to repeat the problems you faced feeding your 6 year old son.

      It seems to me that your baby is allergic to the Formula you are using today and the simple answer is to change the brand as this usually solves the problem.

      Was there any other reason for your not starting her on your Breast milk?

      You stated:
      “I have a 4 week old baby girl at week 2 she started to show signs of acid reflux previous experience with my now 6 year old son who has overcome it but I dont want to go down the same path with my daughter as I did with him several milk changes and lots of medications so I researched online and your name was highly recommended..my daughter is currently on a dairy free formula to rule out dairy intollerance and no other medication.she currently is not sleeping longer than 30 mins tenses up in pain spits up acidic water along with some milk fidgets strains grunts hiccups etc the doctor said next step would be omeprazole I don’t want this as she is so small.can you please help.”

      I hope that you do not go with Omeprazole as there is plenty of evidence on the Web that it invariably makes the problem infinitely worse. Read the accounts of mothers who have done so on my Website to understand the problems it creates.

  485. Rachael gentile says:

    sorry yes we have changed formula to a dairy free milk recommended ny doctor as first son was the same.it looks like its her stomach but it is Gerd sorry very confusing with her I think its gas that affects her aswell as Gerd…i will continue nat phos.is there anything else you would recommend too thankyou

    • Joe says:

      Baby is obviously allergic to the formula and this causes the spasm as the milk does not digest and creates gas which results in GERD. She reacts with the symptoms you are now familiar with. Are you following the instructions in my prescription to gently massage her abdomen in a clockwise direction to help the digestive process?

      You can order Robinia Pseudacacia 30c which you will not use till I instruct you. You may get either the Pellets or the Alcohol product is better.

      You will continue the NP6x as prescribed.

  486. Rachael gentile says:

    thankyou yes we are following your instructions and do massage regularly.she has no problems in drinking bottle it is after feeds very unsettled we have noticed a small improvement last 24 hours will continue to use np6 her sleepnis still minimal.thanks again x

  487. Rachael gentile says:

    hi sir hope your well we have ordered the robinia ready for your instruction.thanks

  488. Rachael gentile says:

    hi sir hope your well still no change in our little girl still using np6.robinia has arrived..she is still uncomfortable after feeding and sleep in the daytime is disturbed.thanks for your time

  489. Rachael gentile says:

    good morning sir hope your well our little girl is still uncomfortable we have still continued with nat phos x6 if you could advise us what to do next please thanks

    • Joe says:

      It seems to me that Baby is not responding to the Nat Phos 6x alone and it is time to add Robinia Pseudacacia 30c in the Wet dose to reinforce its action. This remedy will reduce the Hcl acid flow in baby’s stomach and works in a similar manner to the standard PPI drugs like Nexium which are usually prescribed by doctors even though they are aware that they are dangerous.

      You will make it as per instructions below and give half teaspoonful, twice daily.

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Get Robinia P 30c in the standard pellets and insert just 6 pellets into a 500ml bottle of Spring Water.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Shake the bottle hard before you give baby half teaspoonful twice daily.

      You will stop the Robinia as soon as you find that baby is OK but you will continue the Nat Phos for as long as you feel that it is needed. Nat Phos is NOT a drug and is absolutely safe in use for long periods.

      Report progress in 48 hours.

  490. Rachael gentile says:

    hi sir sorry to message you yet again if I have a bottle of 330ml spring water and small pillules how many do you recommend and also does it make them worse before it gets better as she has had the 2 half teaspoons today and tonight has screamed like never before we doubled the pillules as recommended as they are small? Thanks again.

    • Joe says:

      This is your 15th post on my Website in just 2 weeks and you are advised to consult another physician.

      I regret that I cannot continue to spend so much of my time on treating you and your baby at my advanced age of 90.5 years.

      You can increase the half tsp to a full tsp.

      You can also change your formula which is perhaps the reason for this unending series of problems.

  494. Rachael gentile says:

    I do apologise sir its been a difficult few weeks.i appreciate all your help.

  495. Sylva D says:

    Hello Sir, My baby is 3 months old, and the last few weeks she has been struggling with silent reflux. I began giving her PurAmino formula 4 days ago. I have seen some improvement in her but she is still struggling, even if she burps. The spit up is not bad, but the coughing and nasal congestion is not going away. she will have symptoms at night waking her up after 5 hours from her last feed. What dose can I give her of Nat Phos 30c? Also, baby goes to daycare. can I put the pellets in the premade formula bottles in the morning so its in the bottles she will be eating from. Thank you so much for your guidance.

    • Joe says:

      I believe that the cause of your 3 month old infant’s current problem with Baby GERD is due to her being fed every 5 hours with Formula. Is it possible for you to give her your own Breast milk which you can pump and supply in separate bottles which can be warmed before every feed by your day carer?

      You have inquired if you can mix Nat Phos 30c in the formula but at 30c Nat Phos will not help as it will only act as the treatment for Baby GERD if it is used in the 6x potency when it stimulates Peristalsis and ensures that the milk does not stagnate in baby’s stomach too long, which causes the build up to stomach acid. Nat Phos 6x is always in tablet form and if you do not succeed in providing your own Breast milk, you can mix a tablet in the formula and observe if it helps. You may also use another brand of formula but you will instruct your day carer to feed more often by waking baby in 3-4 hours.

      • Sylva D says:

        Thank you! We will wake her at night every 3-4 hours to eat as well. If she is eating every 2-3 hours during the day should I put the NatPhos 6x in every bottle? I provide day care with 6 bottles, should I add 1/2 tablet to every bottle? Also, can I continue to give her probiotics or should I stop that?
        Thank you so much for the quick response and your help!

        • Joe says:

          I have been informed by some mothers that their babies refuse their bottle when they detect the taste of the dissolved tablet of Nat Phos 6x and you are advised to observe it your baby reacts in this manner. Some mothers prefer to dissolve half tablet in a teaspoon and insert it into baby’s mouth and the balance is given immediately after the feed. If you can keep within the 6 tablets in 24 hours it may be better to use half tablet in the bottles you give your daycare as you can monitor the dosage at night yourself.

          Stop the probiotics and other drugs or supplements and stay with the NP6x and report progress.

    Hi Mr. Delivera, my 10 week old was diagnosed at 7 weeks with silent reflux. He was a csection and also had jaundice. We realized every time he was eating he would grunt. Some days passed and i realized he was gasping for air and he wasn’t sleeping right. His Dr referred us to a Gastroenterologist and they prescribed him 0.6 ml of Famotidine and 0.5ml of Nexium. I don’t care to give my 10week old medication. I did some research and came across your ‘Joepathy’ and wanted to do something more natural to cure him. I have started giving him 1 pellet after every feeding. We are on day 4 and still doing the same thing with hopes to see some change. I have realized he is still grunting and swallowing a lot. Would love some feedback as to what else we can do. I will continue doing the Nat pho 6x until i heat from you. Thank you for your time!

        Thank you for responding!!! So i have been giving him half tablet before bottle and half after. I put half a tablet in half and ounce of formula and the other half in another half ounce of formula and he drinks it fine. He only takes roughly 2ozs of formula. He is currently drinking Alimentum which is a hypoallergenic formula but has not been diagnosed with any allergies to milk or anything else. His formula was changed over 3 times. It has been 5 days since I’ve started the Nat Pho 6x and still he’s swallowing a lot and very fussy with limited sleep. I know things need time to take effect so i will continue to follow your remedy. As for the medications he was prescribed i stopped a day after starting the Nat Pho 6x. I do not care to medicate my baby. I will also start taking the tablets as you stated. Is there anything else i should add to relieve my baby’s reflux? Also he drinks more than 6 bottles a day so i have been doing no more than 6 tablets which means certain feedings he does not get the Nat Pho. He feeds every 2-3 hours because his formula intake is so low due to not wanting to over feed being that is can contribute to his reflux. Thank you again for your time and hope this reply finds you well!!

        Hello Mr. Delivera
        Unfortunately my son is still having issues with his reflux especially at night. I’m still giving him half dose before and after eating. I put it in some formula and make sure he drinks both. All medications were stopped back in June. It’s been a few weeks already and want to know what’s the next step to take. He does drink more than 6 bottles a day but i give him the maximum of 6 tablets a day. Please let me know what else i can do. Thank you

        • Joe says:

          It seems to me that Baby is not responding to the Nat Phos 6x alone and it is time to add Robinia Pseudacacia 30c in the Wet dose to reinforce its action. This remedy will reduce the Hcl acid flow in baby’s stomach and works in a similar manner to the standard PPI drugs like Nexium which are usually prescribed by doctors even though they are aware that they are dangerous.

          You will make it as per instructions below and give half teaspoonful, twice daily.

          The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

          Get Robinia P 30c in the standard pellets and insert just 6 pellets into a 500ml bottle of Spring Water.
          Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
          Shake the bottle hard before you give baby half teaspoonful twice daily.

          You will stop the Robinia as soon as you find that baby is OK but you will continue the Nat Phos for as long as you feel that it is needed. Nat Phos is NOT a drug and is absolutely safe in use for long periods.

          Report progress in 48 hours.

      Hello doctor,
      I am writing to ask your advice for my 11 weeks baby boy who is exclusively breastfed. He is showing up the following symptoms of silent reflux.

      1. He vomits sour smell curdled milk and his tongue is white coated with sour smell, I tried to clean it up, but it didn’t go. He occasionally spits up a watery liquid milk with mucus.
      2.He takes some time to burp, and the burps are as adults do. He is not get relief after the burps
      3. He doesn’t sleep well throughout the whole night even in day time he sleeps for few hours. He only sleeps if we hold him in upright position, when we lay him down he wakes up and cries.
      4. He often chokes even during his sleep followed by a constant cough.
      5. He is always fussy and irritable. After choking or spit up he cries a lot.
      6. Occasionally he has foamy seedy green poop with mucus. Otherwise he has yellowish seedy poop but its smell make me feel that he has indigestion.
      7. Mainly his weight gain is very poor. His birth weight is 2.900 kg s. But after 2 and half months he is only 4 kg s.
      8. He arches his back often. And bend his legs upto his stomach.
      9. He is very gassy, passing wind often and shows colic like symptoms also.

      Fortunately i got to know about your default therapy for reflux and i want to try it out. So I seek your help for my baby. And pls mention that how long should i want to give it to my baby?.
      Thank you!

      • Joe says:

        I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

        The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

        You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

        You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

        Babies do not always do a poo daily. Some babies can go up to 5 days to do so. A gentle massage of her abdomen after every feed in a clockwise direction usually stimulates evacuation.

        You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

        It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.

        Baby is on neocate amino acid formula not breast milk.He doesnt like it in milk.as soon as he taste it in the milk he doesnt drink it. I been giving him in water. Baby stopped breastfeeding at 2months as he was crying alot i wasnt producing enough milk.

          “I only see Nat phos 10 which is 6 times a day”

          I have already informed you that Nat Phos 10 may not work like Nat Phos 6x and you now know that it does not.

  499. Amanda says:

    Thank you so much for this information. I have followed the guidance that you’ve provided in the above responses. I have been trying the half tablet of Nat Phos 6x for my 5 month old who is suffering from stomach pains, gas, sleeplessness and what appears to be silent reflux (she spits up and swallows it back). She also desires to eat nearly every hour. The Nat Phos 6x half tablets made my baby’s symptoms worse. I was giving them to her for one week (testing out the dosage of 1 to 5x per day, to see what she could handle) and then decided to stop because she would spit up more and be more fussy after administering. After 2 weeks off Nat Phos, I decided to give it another try and gave her a half tablet before her evening feed before bed tonight. She has reacted very poorly, crying hysterically, vomiting “chunky milk” and is clearly in pain. She can’t be laid down or go to sleep. Please, any advice?

    • Joe says:

      I do not have any records of having prescribed for your baby and presume that you have just followed the therapy I prescribe for other anxious mothers.

      I can see that your baby does not seem to respond to my default therapy with Nat Phos 6x and this may be due to the product you are using not being the Biochemic Cell Salt. It is marketed in the Homeopathic format and if it is not in Tablet form and is in 3mm Ø pellets this is the reason.

      You are advised to get the Hylands product as they manufacture the correct product.

        Thank you for your quick response. Yes, you’re correct. I had simply “googled” information about reflux cures and came across your page, among others recommending the treatment.

        I did purchase the Hyland’s brand Nat Phos 6x, which I have been using from the beginning.

        I forgot to mention as part of my baby’s response to Nat Phos last night, she also had a cold sweat on her forehead. She reacted very poorly to the treatment, as she has previously. Like I mentioned, her symptoms have been worse when I offer Nat Phos.

        I have followed the guidance you outline above. Perhaps this specific treatment does not work for my little one.

    Thank you for your detailed response and regimen. I’d like to consult with you before putting my baby on another treatment plan. As a Funtional Nutrition Therapy Practitioner, specializing in holistic nutrition as a means to healing, my understanding of reflux and heartburn in adults is often caused by too little stomach acid — not an overproduction, as is often conventional interpretation. That is often one reason why PPI medications do much more harm than good. How are the treatments you prescribe working in the body? I have very little education on holistic infant healthcare, but from my understanding of adults, reflux can be helped through supplemental Hcl in certain cases because the lack of stomach acid is the cause of fermentation happening in the stomach, which causes heartburn, reflux, gas, bloating, etc. I have taken supplemental Hcl off and on for years and it has helped my bloating and gas tremendously. Can you provide information regarding what’s going on in the infant’s digestive system that necessitates the use of the homeopathic remedies. From my limited understanding, the Nat Phos is used to treat hyperacidity. Is that the case, that a “reflux baby” has an overproduction of Hcl? Or are the homeopathic medications used to ease symptoms? As in the case of adults, I would never want to prescribe a medication or supplement that would reduce Hcl production because that’s basically using a bandaid to cover up the root cause issue — easing symptoms, not curing the problem. I hope this makes sense. Thank you for your time. I appreciate it tremendously.

    • Joe says:

      I wish I had the time to respond to your queries but at 91 years in age I do not have the time to devote to it.
      In any event your thesis is incorrect.

      Nat Phos 6x is a Biochemic Cell Salt and works by stimulating Peristalsis and thereby prevents the formation of excess acid which is the body’s normal reaction when food stagnates in the stomach.

      It is NOT a drug and you can Google this term for more information.

    Dear Doctor,

    My daughter is nearly 3month and was born premature. She was diagnosed with reflux and is on omaprazole, gaviscon but doesn’t seem to be helping. She sleeps very comfortably when in my arms, but once you put her down she make ls noises as if in pain and doesn’t sleep for long . Am not breastfeeding, she is taking formula milk 60mls every 3hours. I came up on your website when l was looking for natural way to cure the reflux. I read most of the responses to other parents and tried to look for the Nat Phos 6x in the UK , it looks like nobody is selling it. Hope to hear from you soon. Thank you in advance

      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby when you start on my therapy.

    Hi. My son is currently 7 months and 3 weeks. He currently weighs 16 and half pound. He was born via C-section.He was kept seperated from me due to me being tested Covid positive for 10 days and was fed formula those days. After he came back to me, I used to breastfeed him and also give one bottle of formula at night. Due to me being a first time parent and having no knowledge or help bcs it was the peak of Covid, I use to mix the formula in cow’s milk and feed to him. I gave him formula like this 5/6 times until my sister told me that’s not the way to make formula and it’s extremely harmful for him.

    Since then, he would ALWAYS spit up and needed to be burped very often during a feeding. After speaking to the doctor, they said he has acid reflux/gerd.. The doctor gave him famotidine. I gave it to him for 11 days but stopped afterwards when I read about the side effects. Then we tried to go to a naturopathic doctor. She recommended Nat Phos 6x two times a day 2 tablets. In the beginning, it seems to worked but after awhile it didn’t. So I had stopped that too.

    By this time he was already 5 months …and I just thrt I will let him grow out of it and didn’t do anything. He has VERY difficult time drinking milk. Just a 3 ounce bottle of milk, it would take one hour and 20 mins to feed him and must be burped after every ounce.

    As of now, the spit up isn’t there…but he refuses solids and also during feeding him a 6 ounce bottle , he will need to be burped over 9/10 times in between. after every ounce, and towards the End of the feeding, after every half an ounce. He has a very difficult time drinking milk and takes a very long time to feed him. I pump milk for him so it’s breast milk. During the evening feeding, it’s the worst …he will constantly refuse the bottle and keep turning his face away… it is extremely difficult for me to get him to drink milk.
    I have stopped the solids bcs he cries all the time when I was feeding him and would constantly refuse.

    Currently the only thing is I give him is probiotics. I’m not sure if it’s helping or not .Can you please help?

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

      Babies do not always do a poo daily. Some babies can go up to 5 days to do so. A gentle massage of her abdomen after every feed in a clockwise direction usually stimulates evacuation.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
      Do not give the MMR Vaccine in One shot as there is plenty of evidence on the Web of severe side effects which can result. You are advised to give it in 3 separate shots if you must do so, after baby is 2 years old.

        Hello,
        My daughter is 3 months old and is showing more severe signs of reflux. It seems she has had symptoms since she was only a couple weeks old but it is now to where she is choking till she cannot breathe. She is also struggling to sleep at night. She is usually very squirmy and has been crying out more frequently in her sleep because of the discomfort. She is not on any medications— using only a probiotic that I’m not sure helps. She also has quite a bit of mucus in her poo. I stopped breastfeeding when she was 7 weeks old as advised by our pediatrician. She told me to put her on a hypoallergenic formula to see if it was something in my milk that was causing her reflux, rock hard tummy, and mucus in poo. Still mucus in poo and reflux is still present. Hoping to get back to breastfeeding but now concerned with getting reflux under control as it seems to be getting much worse! Looking for natural alternatives because I refuse to give her PPI meds, but really need something because watching her choke is truly terrifying. I appreciate your time. Thank you!

        Hi. I’ve been following your recommendation for 2 weeks now…. Unfortunately, his situation is pretty much the same. He still must be burped multiple times when we bottle feed him breastmilk. I started solids after he turned 8months. He constantly cries and refuses. And if I am able to put in a little in his mouth. He needs to burp. Even after drinking an ounce of water, he needs to burp. In the evening, it gets worse ….
        Please help.

          It seems to me that Baby is not responding to the Nat Phos 6x alone and it is time to add Robinia Pseudacacia 30c in the Wet dose to reinforce its action. This remedy will reduce the Hcl acid flow in baby’s stomach and works in a similar manner to the standard PPI drugs like Nexium which are usually prescribed by doctors even though they are aware that they are dangerous.

          You will make it as per instructions below and give half teaspoonful, twice daily.

          The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

          Get Robinia P 30c in the standard pellets and insert just 6 pellets into a 500ml bottle of Spring Water.
          Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
          Shake the bottle hard before you give baby half teaspoonful twice daily.

          You will stop the Robinia as soon as you find that baby is OK but you will continue the Nat Phos for as long as you feel that it is needed. Nat Phos is NOT a drug and is absolutely safe in use for long periods.

          Report progress in 48 hours.

          • Tayaba says:

            Thank you for responding. The Robinia P 30c is only available in liquid form here. Will it be possible to get instructions on how to go about with the liquid form?
            We are not able to find the pellet form anywhere.

            • Joe says:

              Glad to learn that Robinia P 30c is available in NY in the Liquid Dilution.

              You will use just 5 drops in 500ml spring water to make the Wet dose and you will give baby 5ml twice daily.

                Update after 48 hours:-
                24 hours before the Rubinia P 30C arrived… My baby was able to drink 3-4 ounces without having to burp. Then he would need to be burped per usual after one or two ounces. At night time, it’s always gets worse…so he would need to be burped after every two ounces or would refuse to drink further. He was only on nat Phos 6x then.
                After giving him the Rubinia, it remained the same the first day…and on the second day, in terms of burping , same…. But in the morning and night time, he projectile vomited alot. Those are the time, I gave him Rubinia. After 3-4 bites of solids, he needs to burp and then refuses the food. Also , I realized , after every time I gave him 5 ml of Rubinia, he burped. Shall I still carry on with the Robinia or give something else instead?
                Also, I just wanted to say ..thank you so much for taking out the time to respond and help us out … We are so grateful. This is our first child after 12 years… It’s been so hard watching my baby suffer.

                • Joe says:

                  Do I understand that the Robinia made his condition worse?

                  Can you copy his detailed case history for me again?

                  • Tayaba says:

                    My son is currently 8 months months and 2 weeks. When we checked his weight a month ago, he weighted 16 and half pound.He was born via C-section.He was kept seperated from me due to me being tested Covid positive for 10 days and was fed formula those days. After he came back to me, I used to breastfeed him and also give one bottle of formula at night.

                    By this time he was already 5 months …and I just thrt I will let him grow out of it and didn’t do anything. He has VERY difficult time drinking milk and would also spit up after feeds. Just a 3 ounce bottle of milk, it would take one hour and 20 mins to feed him and must be burped after every ounce.

                    Then the spit up stopped but he refuses solids and also during feeding him a 6 or 7 ounce bottle , he will need to be burped over 9/10 times in between. after every ounce, and towards the End of the feeding, after every half an ounce. He had a very difficult time drinking milk and takes a very long time to feed him. I pump milk for him so it’s breast milk. During the evening feeding, it’s the worst …he will constantly refuse the bottle and keep turning his face away… it was extremely difficult for me to get him to drink milk.
                    I have stopped the solids bcs he cries all the time when I was feeding him and would constantly refuse.

                    I forgot to add to mention in my previous message, , he’s always had this constant dry cough… When his acid reflux would get worse, then his cough would increase. That was a way where I was able to tell his acid reflux has increased today. It’s not a constant cough throughout the day. It just happens here and there.

                    After I contacted you, and when we started using the Nat Phos 6x, the first two days…we saw a huge improvement. Like he was able to have 2-3 ounces in the beginning without the need to be burped , then had to be carried on burped after each ounce. For the night feeding tho , it was still the same. But then his situation turned worse and returned back to the same thing where he had to be burped after one ounce. That’s when I contacted again , mentioning there isn’t much of improvement… 24 hours before we added the Robinia, we saw he was able to drink 3 ounces without the need the burp. And we added the Rubinia. His current situation stands at during the morning and lunch feed, he can go to have 3-4 ounces sometimes without the need to be burped . Towards the end, after every 2 or 1 ounce.
                    One thing , I did realized that tho he can go a few ounces without the need the burp, he stills carries on burping a few times after feeding is over.
                    But for the night feed, he must be burped after every two ounces . Every night it gets worse.
                    We had started him on solids at 5 and half months based of the recommendation of his pediatrician. In the beginning he would have it. Then all of the sudden he would constantly refuse and always cry when we would try to feed him. I stopped giving for 3 weeks when he turned 7months. It was around then we contacted you and We started the therapy for his situation. So After he turned 8 months. , He would still constantly refuse solids. After two or three bites forcefully, he needs to burped and we can not feed him at all after that. After he drinks water, he also needs to be burped. He doesn’t want to drink much of it too. Im not able to give him more than 1 or 2 ounces. This is where we are at currently.
                    After giving him the Robinia, it was the same the first day. The second day , he was vomiting. I reported because you asked to report after 48 hours . Otherwise I would’ve waited few more days to see. I’m not sure if the vomiting is related to the Robinia at all or not. He might just been having a rough day. I’m really not sure . Or maybe I overfed him since he was doing better with milk lately.

                    I hope I was able to provide all the details.

                    Also, I’m not sure if this is worth mentioning but he has bowel movements after 7/8 days… Sometimes can go longer. I stopped tracking because it’s become his normal. This has been for months . When I informed his pediatrician, they just said it was normal for babies who drink breastmilk not have to bowel movements for couple of days .

                      You do not need to apologise for the detailed information you provided as it enables me to help you better as you were Corona positive. It is very likely that baby too was infected although he did not show positive and you may like to know that I discovered the CURE of the Virus in 2005 which I used to cure Dengue when it was reported here in Sri Lanka in 2007. I offered it free of charge to the medical authorities both here and abroad but they just refused it on the grounds that it had to be tested ! I referred to my success in doing so both here and overseas but NO was the answer. This is way back last March and we have lost over 1.5 MILLION precious lives! This just makes me sick. It is Big Pharma that is the problem as the Gold Mine that this curse represents is in untold Trillions ! I cure it free of charge ! It occurs to me that the cause of your baby’s problem started with the Virus which did not manifest with the classical symptoms but is still present in him today.

                      The remedy that will CURE a patient is Eupatorium Perfoliatum 200c in the Wet dose taken just once daily as a prophylactic or every 3 hours if the patient is positive. It Cured Dengue in 3 hours but Covid takes 3 days. Do a search under “Annie J” on my Website and read how I rescued a patient in Bangalore.

                      I have never treated a 8 month old for Covid 19 and frankly do not know how to use my therapy. I shall however treat him for Baby GERD and see how he responds. I just noted that he has a dry cough and it is possible that this is the Virus manifesting itself. What shall we do?

                      I note that you are giving him solids and you will read from my default prescription that I do not advise solids till 8 months but your baby is already over this time frame but as you have already seen, is still sensitive . You will not add to his problems.

                      The constipation for 8 days is indeed a record for me. You will gently massage his abdomen clockwise after a feed and hope and pray that he will be OK soon.

                    Dr. After reporting progress after 48 hours , we have carried on following nat phos and Robinia for two weeks now. There’s no improvement from the last time i contacted. He still needs to be burped after every 2-3 ounces during the morning and afternoon feed . But at night feed , it gets worse…so he needs to be burped after every ounce. Some days, he will projectile vomit also during the night feed.

                      Your baby is a very difficult case for me and I would like to replace the Robinia with Nux Vomica 30 in the Wet dose.

                    • Tayaba says:

                      Thank you for replying… I agree. I do believe the projectile vomit is due to me increasing his solids last 5 days, which was around the same time when I stopped giving Nux Vomica..
                      Hence I have reduced the amount of solids I give him and now give only the amount I was previously giving …. The projectile vomit has stopped but his burping returned back to what is was before and has worsened..

                      He needs to be burped after every 2 ounce and towards the end of the feeding , after every one ounce. There’s no improvement in that despite me reducing his solids and his feeds. There were times where he woke up from his sleep to burp and he was crying in pain till he burped. I feel it’s due to stopping the Nux Vomica which helped tremendously before.
                      Shall we restart Nux Vomica? Or carry on only with Nat Phos? Please help.

                    • Joe says:

                      It seems to me that you have not read my last response which I repeat below:

                      You are cleared to restart Nux Vomica 30c given twice daily for a few more days and you will keep me advised of baby’s progress. The Nat Phos 6x must be continued.

                      Do not make him suffer so very unnecessarily and feel free to report his status with me anytime as I am housebound today due to the Covid 19 at my age of 91, as the youngest of my 3 sons has advised me to not attend office as I have done for the last 75 years daily driving my EV up to a few months ago.

                      Go easy on the solids as he is only just under 11 months and according to you tested positive for Covid 19. This is indeed difficult to believet unless you, the parents were the source of the infection. What is his condition today and are you certain that he was infected?

                  • Tayaba says:

                    We bought the Nux Vomica in the liquid form… The dosage , will it be twice everyday like the Rubinia was?

                    • Joe says:

                      The dose is the same you used for the Robinia.

                      I hope you are well…. First I would like to apologize for the delay in reporting. I wanted to observe the effect of Nux Vomica and Nat Phos combined so I can give a thorough report because usually anything we try , there’s an improvement in the beginning and then it gets worse…

                      I can report that after trying Nat Phos and Nux Vomica together… He was doing well… To the extent I was able to restart giving him solid food again. And his burping, he was able to have milk 3-4 ounces before the need to burp…
                      Then it got even better and he was able to have 6 ounces of milk without the need to burp… He did carry on burping on his own after the milk was finished multiple times…but the major improvement was he didn’t need to burp after every one or two ounces … Previously he couldn’t even carry on drinking without being burped after one or two ounces.

                      So after nearly 3 weeks, that’s when I remembered your advice that when he seems to be doing ok, then stop Nat Vomica and carry on with only Nat Phos… That’s what I started doing for the pass 5 days…. And it just got worse again. At least once a day, after eating solids he will projectile vomit Soo much… I’m not sure if the projectile vomit is related to me increasing the solids bcs I saw there was an improvement how much he was able to eat or something else….
                      And he needs to be burped after every 2 ounces when drinking milk… and even after being burped after every 2 ounces , after the milk is finished, he will carry on burping multiple time…

                      Please advise what shall I do? Shall I add Nat Vomica again? Or it will not be good for long term?

                      Also, I would really like to say a huge thank you for all your help… The improvement we have seen due to your therapy and your help by taking out the time to advice us what to do is extremely appreciated. I had nearly given up all hope. Thank you so much.

                    • Joe says:

                      Glad I was able to help your baby. He was a difficult case and I was reluctant to advise you to use Nux V as it is potentized Strychnine but it was the only solution.

                      It seems to me that you are overfeeding baby as you perhaps feel that in doing so you will help him to grow faster.
                      My advice is Don’t Push it.
                      Let baby grow normally and do not depend on my Remedies to enable him to eat and drink more and more.

                      Thank you for keeping me informed. I appreciate it.

                      Don’t hesitate to call on me to help which I will do even at my advanced age of over 91.

Looking for natural alternatives because I refuse to give her PPI meds, but really need something because watching her choke is truly terrifying. I appreciate your time. Thank you!

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

      Babies do not always do a poo daily. Some babies can go up to 5 days to do so. A gentle massage of her abdomen after every feed in a clockwise direction usually stimulates evacuation.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
      Do not give the MMR Vaccine in One shot as there is plenty of evidence on the Web of severe side effects which can result. You are advised to give it in 3 separate shots if you must do so, after baby is 2 years old.

      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby when you start on my therapy.

    Thank you so much! I meant to ask in my initial post.. will this help with mucus in poo? Or do you have another therapy for that?

    Hello Sir
    I hope you are well.
    24 hours ago I started my 9 week old son on Nat Phos 6 tablets as per your instructions to previous parents. He is 9 weeks old and gaining weight well (approx 15lb at moment) but has silent reflux. He was on infant Gaviscon which I stopped to try Nat Phos 6. Unfortunately the past 24 hours he has been worse than ever before. I can hear him swallowing down the acid and he is so uncomfortable and in pain and will not settle lying down and is crying more than before. I crushed the tablet in approx 4ml expressed breast milk as I am exclusively breastfeeding and gave him half before the feed and half after and gave him 6 tablets in 24 hours. I wind him and keep him upright after every feed and am eliminating certain foods from my diet. My doctor has recommended Omeprezole and I really don’t want to do this so was desperate for Nat Phos to work but am now distressed at how much worse he is.
    I see you sometimes recommended Nux Vom in combination with Nat Phos. I only have this in pellet form and don’t know if I can take it and it will go through my milk?
    We have decided to give Nat Phos another 24 hours but if he continues to worsen we will have to stop. Any help greatly appreciated.
    Many thanks in advance,
    Sabrina

    • Joe says:

      I am glad to note that you have not given your baby the Gaviscon your doctor prescribed.

      It seems to me that Baby is not responding to the Nat Phos 6x alone and it is time to add Robinia Pseudacacia 30c in the Wet dose to reinforce its action. This remedy will reduce the Hcl acid flow in baby’s stomach and works in a similar manner to the standard PPI drugs like Nexium which are usually prescribed by doctors even though they are aware that they are dangerous.

      You will make it as per instructions below and give half teaspoonful, twice daily.

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Get Robinia P 30c in the standard pellets and insert just 6 pellets into a 500ml bottle of Spring Water.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Shake the bottle hard before you give baby half teaspoonful twice daily.

      You will stop the Robinia as soon as you find that baby is OK but you will continue the Nat Phos for as long as you feel that it is needed. Nat Phos is NOT a drug and is absolutely safe in use for long periods.

      Report progress in 48 hours.

  510. Sabrina M says:

    Thank you so much for your quick reply. I have checked and I won’t be able to get the Robinia P 30c delivered until the 11th at the earliest. What should I do in the meantime, stop the Nat Phos then start again when the Robinia P comes. I do not want him to continue to get worse. Would the Nox Vom tablets help at all?
    Thanks again, Sabrina

    • Joe says:

      I used to prescribe Nux Vomica 30 which is perfectly safe for baby but when I discovered Robinia P which worked in a manner different to Nux by controlling the flow of Hcl into the stomach I switched over.

      You may use it instead of permitting baby to be uncomfortable till the Robinia P arrives since it is available immediately.

      • Sabrina says:

        Many thanks for this. What is the dosage of the Nux Vim 30c pellets. Is it a wet dose for the baby or shall I take the pellets. I really appreciate your help.

    Hi Joe,
    Hope you are doing fine. I am 34 years old female, and coming to my previous history 10months back I have got sore throat and was given antibiotics for it and then after a month again I got sinus infection and was given higher antibiotics. Thought my immunity was low and started taking 1000mg vitamin C supplement and that made my symptoms worst. I was not able to take for couple of weeks and went to an ENT and they diagnosed me as LPR and reflux. So they gave me PPI and that made my symptoms worst , before PPI the only issue I had is dry and stuck throat when I used to talk but after PPI I used to feel acid feeling in my throat and too much thick mucus, so I weaned off PPI and started following non acidic diet from 3 months. But now I started having heart burn if I eat anything heavy or if I don’t eat on time. My digestion has definitely gone bad and I am sure I might be deficient with some vitamins as I am not eating every thing. I wasn’t eating any fermented or probiotic foods as well as thought that would increase my reflux. My current symptoms are every 3 hrs I feel my stomach gastric juices and I have to eat immediately something other wise it I can feel that gastric juices coming up .I can’t eat protein or any fatty food.Please let me know if you need more details. Really appreciate your help. Thank you somuch.

      I noticed that you have addressed me by my given name, Joe.
      Here in Sri Lanka where I live, we have a modicum of respect for age and I would prefer that you do not do so.

      I am 91 years old and your case is far too complicated for me to advise you.

      I would suggest that you contact Dr Manish Bhatia who is a very experienced Homeopath whom I have known since 1999 on:

    Hello Dr. Livera,

    I would like to give “Joepathy” a try as all my doctors have prescribed famotadine and Lansoprazole. In a moment of weakness I gave into trying those medicines – famotadine for 4 days and Lansoprazole for 1 day. Symptoms worsened, sleep deprivation, more acid, etc. and I believe he’s dealing with some residual side effects from just those 5 total doses alone. I am resolved not to give my baby any more of that medicine and feel guilty for giving it in the first place We are not sleeping and got desperate, and I wanted to trust the doctors advice, but I believe a mothers intuition is best here. My baby has silent reflux. He does not spit up outwardly but you can hear it, and smell the reflux on his breath and hands. He curls in pain when this happens and cries, it’s heartbreaking. He will sleep but mainly only when held. As soon as he is laid down horizontally I can hear the acid come up and he starts crying. We might be able to get 1-2 sleeps out of him a day on his back that are more than 1 hour – all others are 45 mins or less unless held

    I have Nat Pho’s and have read your instructions. I have a few questions I was hoping you’d be so kind to clarify for me:

    1. I am exclusively pumping and feeding breastmilk through bottle. Is it OK to dissolve one whole tablet in the bottle. Or do I need to administer exactly as you instruct by dissolving 1/2 before feed and 1/2 after feed?
    2. is there a better time of day to administer the 6 doses than others? He has more trouble at night. He eats about 8-9 times a day 3 oz of expressed breastmilk.
    3. I believe my son is allergic to milk protein, and I have eliminated dairy and soy from my diet. Aside from reflux, he has mucous and trace amounts of blood in his stool and pediatrician indicated elimination diet was the best route to cure. nat phos bottle indicates that it has “Lactose N.F” in it. According to highland website ” Lactose N.F. The “N.F.” stands for National Formulary, indicating pharmaceutical grade lactose, which is milk sugar from cow’s milk completely purified of milk proteins. Rarely someone with a severe milk protein allergy might react to the unmeasurable amounts of milk protein in the lactose. However, because of the small amounts of lactose in each tablet, most lactose intolerant individuals can safely take the medicine without fear of adverse reaction.”
    This makes me feel a little more comfortable about giving to him, but I’m curious – Have any of your other patients with milk protein allergy experienced adverse reactions? Is there a lactose free nat phos by chance?

    thank you so much for your time. I hope your therapy works for my little one, I will be so grateful!

    • Joe says:

      I am glad that you stopped the drugs and started on my Joepathy as in any case they made baby’s condition worse. How old is baby? Weight gain?

      I hope that the Nat Phos you are giving baby is 6x and is the Biochemic Cell Salt. What is the brand?

      I have suggested that you use the half tablet immediately before and after a feed and not dissolved in the pumped milk as many mothers have reported that their baby showed some reluctance to feed due to the taste of the tablet in the milk. In your case this is possible as you may be pumping some time before baby is fed, and there may be some reaction in the milk in storage.

      It is also possible that you are over feeding baby as you stated
      “He eats about 8-9 times a day 3 oz of expressed breastmilk.”

  513. Silvia says:

    Dear sir,
    My baby girl has had silent reflux from birth. Her birth was very traumatic. She is now two months old. I tried very hard to breastfeed but had no breast milk because of thyroid disorder and she is formula fed. I have been giving her nat phos 6x as per your instructions in previous posts – the first week half tablet before and half tablet after a feeding. Things improved slightly but not enough. It’s the second week now and two days ago I started giving her a whole tablet after each feeding (6 times during the day, no nat phos after the night feeding). The symptoms persist. There is still gagging, choking and no sleep during the day with painful episodes. She sleeps great at night. The reflux seems to disappear then. This has been unchanged.
    Shall I add any other medication?
    I really appreciate what you do and I wish you health and happiness.
    Silvia

    • Joe says:

      I note that you have followed the therapy I prescribe for baby GERD on my Website but that it did not help your baby girl. I believe that this Reflux is caused by her stomach being sensitive to the formula you are giving her and you are advised to change it.

      Many mothers have found that half tablet before a feed and half after is more suitable than the whole tablet given after a feed but this is not mandatory and you can report her progress in a few days.

      I am glad that she sleeps soundly at night enabling you to also have your sleep as some parents are desperate when they are disturbed by baby crying for the next feed.

      Please note that you must not overfeed her as this too brings on the reflux. I presume that you are burping her often.

      You can order Robinia Pseudacacia 30 in pellets, 5 of which which you will mix into 500ml water from which you can give her a teaspoon to help with her reflux if she still persists twice daily.

      I admire your command of English as I discovered from your email IP that you live in Bulgaria.

  514. Silvia says:

    Dear Mr. De Livera,
    I am writing earlier because of a mistake I made that I would like to warn others about – as you advised I started giving my baby the dissolved Robinia Ps. pellets twice daily between feedings along with the Nat. Phos. tablet immediately after each feeding. The results after I first administered Robinia were amazing – baby slept sound during the day without being fussy or in pain, then in the evening I administered the second doze of Robinia and I was surprised to find that all symptoms reappeared. She was also apparently swallowing stomach acid in her sleep and when she woke up for the middle of the night feeding she spit up twice and it was painful. I thought hard what I had done wrong and then I remembered that I gave her a tummy massage in the evening with a drop of spearmint essential oil! I remembered that mint could be an antidote to homeopathic substances. So we are now back to square 1. Parents should be aware of all possible antidotes and not make such mistakes.
    I’m going to report again in a few days.
    Silvia

    • Joe says:

      You stated:

      “as you advised I started giving my baby the dissolved Robinia Ps. pellets twice daily between feedings along with the Nat. Phos”

      You give me the impression that you have dissolved the Robinia Pellets (how many?) in water (how much?) and given all the dissolved pellets to baby in One Dose. You repeated this dose when baby protested. The tummy massage did not help. The mint, made matters worse.

      Please clarify if I understood you correctly.

      DO NOT GIVE BABY Robinia till we clear this matter up.
      You are cleared to give baby the Nat Phos 6x tablets as prescribed.

  515. Silvia says:

    Dear Mr De Livera,
    Please accept my gratitude for your time and dedication. It is very comforting to know that someone is sincerely concerned with your child’s wellbeing.
    The other day I gave her just a teaspoon of the solution (5 pellets of Robinia in a small bottle of water), which was the correct dose you prescribed – that was the first one and it worked great until I gave her the massage with the mint oil, then it was like the days of the worst crises before I started the Nat Phos. The next day (yesterday) I continued giving her Nat Phos after each feeding + a teaspoon of the Robinia solution twice daily between feedings. She is back to normal now – meaning that she is not in pain and there are no severe episodes but I can still see signs of reflux like gagging when lying on her back for too long, wet burps and frequent hiccups etc. I presume that the effect of the Nat Phos still needs to be reinforced by the Robinia solution. Please confirm.
    Silvia

  516. Tareen says:

    Dear Dr De Livera
    Thank you for offering advice and help on baby Gerd.
    I have read previous post and understand treatment plan.
    My question is are you able to give the dose of Nat Phos with baby formulae. In other words just mix it in with their feed or must it only be given at end of feed?
    If it is possible to just mix with formula when feeding that would be a huge help.
    I look forward to your reply

    • Joe says:

      I note that you have studied the many cases of babies whom I have helped with my therapy which unfortunately is not copied by other physicians in spite of their reading the reports of mothers who have confirmed that my “Joepathy” does work in a manner that is far more effective than their own classical therapies.

      Answering your question if Nat Phos 6x will work with formula feed, you will read the reports of many mothers who have confirmed that it does.
      All you must do is to use it and see if if does work. There is no bar to mixing it with the formula, but you may like to know that some mothers have reported that the taste of the milk when mixed makes is more difficult to feed baby.

      Feel free to report baby’s response, if you want me to help.

  517. Tareen says:

    Dear Dr De Livera
    Thank you for your reply and offering your assistance.
    I am currently weaning my 12 week old off omperozole, which he has been on since 4 weeks of age. I have been advised to wean slowly as I believe when people come of PPIs there an be a big rebound if not done slowly.
    I want to start joepathy at same time while weaning so when he is off PPI he has the alternative already in place.

    • Joe says:

      Why don’t you present your baby’s case in the manner that other patients do instead of trying to diagnose and prescribe yourself after reading the case histories of other patients I have treated?
      Doing so yourself has lead in some cases to problems including some harm to baby.

      There is no charge for treatment and there is nothing to be gained by your not conforming.

            I presume you are aware that I am over 91 years old and many mothers have consulted me for their baby’s GERD for many years on my Website and as far as I know, I am the first to advise the use of Nat Phos 6x as I discovered that it is by far more effective than all other Homeopathic Remedies, and far safer than the standard drugs prescribed by paediatricians almost all of which are known to be dangerous even for adults.

            I would suggest that you dissolve half tablet in the minimum quantity of breast milk, and apply it on the baby’s tongue before and after a feed. I suggested dissolving the tablet to prevent the possibility of any choking.

            The reason for my advising not to give baby solids before baby is 8 months in age is simply because baby’s stomach is not ready to accept them, till that time.

            Breast Milk is best.

    Hello Mr Delivera,

    My 17 week old soon suffers from acid reflux. I’m currently exclusively breastfeeding and plan to introduce solids in the form of oats porridge to him in a couple of weeks. He has been taking omeprazole for the past 8 weeks and although it helps, as he gains weight it stops working and the doctors have to further increase dosage for it to work again. I would prefer he was not on this medication at all.
    He was born at 38 weeks via emergency c-section. He weighed 9.5 pounds at birth and symptoms started surfacing at 4 weeks.
    He now weighs circa 7.8kg at 17 weeks (he’s a big baby). He feeds well although sometimes I find it’s for comfort. May you please advice me on how I can help him thank you.

          The Nat Phos 6x therapy that I prescribed will help baby irrespective of his vaccination and you are advised to give the Measels and Mumps vaccine in separate doses as there is ample evidence on the web that the combination of both vaccines in one dose has resulted in damage to the brain in babies.

            Good day Sir,

            Just wanted to say thank you so much for you help and to keep you posted on our progress. I believe someone may find this useful in time to come. Please advice on how I and when I should start reducing the Nat Phos all things remaining equal. Really appreciate your help. I have had a completely happy and different child for the past few weeks.

            24 hours:

            First 6 feeds fine

            Minimal spit up with first 6 in fact little to no vomiting

            Was squirming in discomfort, arching back about 3/4 times in the day and crying but would stop

            Difficult to put down to sleep, kept squirming.

            Vomited his nighttime feed early hours of the morning . Difficult to put to bed, kept squirming and writhing in pain. No crying though

            Day 2:

            Woke up happy and was generally ok through the day

            Burping and passing wind which smells sometimes.
            Cat napped in the day, was woken up by wind and flatulence.

            Was a bit fussy in the evening. Took a while to put to sleep. Kept writhing as if in pain.

            Caught him gulping several times. It didn’t seem to bother him too much. Also vomited a couple of times which didn’t seem to bother him

            After night feed, seemed less distressed. Fell asleep in a third of the time. First time in four nights he’s gone down so quick. Less squirming and writhing too.

            Day 3:
            Woke up pretty happy. Put him on his back and he seemed comfortable.

            Still gulping vomit sometimes when I put him on his back for happy change. I’m assuming that’s because he’s come off gaviscon which was making his stomach contents thicker.

            Still farting quite a bit. Has very very smelly farts. Have given him some probiotics. Hoping he will nap better today.

            In general, he seems a much happier baby with the odd irritation here and there.

            Irritation reduced after he had a very very smelly poo

            Was so much easier to put to bed tonight. Slept during feed

            Struggled to sleep after night feed. Was awake almost an hour but slept very well thereafter

            Day 4: woke up very cheerful. Put him on his back and no signs of discomfort

            Two cat naps in the afternoon then a gd long one.

            Seemed agitated towards end of day

            Night feed went well. Wouldn’t settle after and didn’t go back to sleep. Was awake for over an hour and a half . Had to give another feed

            Day 5 – 9:
            The happiest I have ever seen him. We have gone through several developmental milestones this week from rolling to being able to grab his toys and giggling.

            Still passing smelly farts. Pooh’s on day 8 after 5 days.

            Poo less smelly than the first.

            I think he may be teething

            Day 10:
            Drooling and agitated today. Keeps rubbing his nose and eyes. Has cried several times. Not sure if it’s teething related or reflux.
            I’m sure the reflux has gone away so will continue to monitor.

            • Joe says:

              Thank you for your detailed report of your baby’s progress since taking Nat Phos 6x which I prescribed for him.

              I shall copy your post on that date to contrast it with his response today, a few days after treatment with my “Joepathy” (Google).

              I would like to inform you that I am over 91 years in age am retired from my official duties as the CEO in my Business organization which is now headed by the youngest of my 3 sons. I am devoting my time in helping all who seek my assistance including babies like yours who contact me on this my Website.

              I shall post this case separately on my Website.

              2021/03/27 at 4:25 am

              “My 17 week old soon suffers from acid reflux. I’m currently exclusively breastfeeding and plan to introduce solids in the form of oats porridge to him in a couple of weeks. He has been taking omeprazole for the past 8 weeks and although it helps, as he gains weight it stops working and the doctors have to further increase dosage for it to work again. I would prefer he was not on this medication at all.
              He was born at 38 weeks via emergency c-section. He weighed 9.5 pounds at birth and symptoms started surfacing at 4 weeks.
              He now weighs circa 7.8kg at 17 weeks (he’s a big baby). He feeds well although sometimes I find it’s for comfort. May you please advice me on how I can help him thank you.”

    Hi
    My wee one is 10 weeks old and has suffered from reflux since she’s been born. Doctors have put her on Losec but it only seems to work for so long and then she’s back to square one. Her symptoms are not being able to take a full bottle as it’s too uncomfortable for her, being in a lot of discomfort, arching her back, bringing up clear liquid, coughing and very wheezy. I have read about Nat phos x6 but I’m not able to find anywhere to buy them and was wondering were you would recommend getting them? I’m in the uk

    • Joe says:

      STOP the Losec and use he prescription below. Do not overfeed.

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

      Babies do not always do a poo daily. Some babies can go up to 5 days to do so. A gentle massage of her abdomen after every feed in a clockwise direction usually stimulates evacuation.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
      Do not give the MMR Vaccine in One shot as there is plenty of evidence on the Web of severe side effects which can result. You are advised to give it in 3 separate shots if you must do so, after baby is 2 years old.

      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby when you start on my therapy.

    Hello,
    I have an almost 4 week old with bag digestive issues, colic and silent reflux. He spits up clear liquid and grunts all night long. He also hates to sleep on his back. He will fall asleep then wake up from the reflux and cry and then need us to go back down. It’s a cycle all night and for naps. Is he too young for your remedy? He is formula fed on a hypoallergenic one.
    Thank you.

    • Joe says:

      It is very likely that your baby is reacting to the formula that you are giving him and you are advised to change it and hope that it will help.

      Is there some way you can go back to Breast feeding and if so, I can prescribe a remedy which will stimulate lactation.

      • Maddy says:

        Ok thank you. I changed the formula just over a week ago. I have him on nat pho’s for almost 4 full days now and not seeing any Improvement.

        • Joe says:

          Your baby is just 5 weeks old and at this age I am reluctant to prescribe a remedy to help his digestion to overcome Baby GERD.

          This is the reason why I inquired if you can consider restarting Breast feeding but you did not respond to my suggestion that you do so in Baby’s interest.

          You have already given Nat Phos 6x and this did not help.
          I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

          The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

          If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

          You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby when you start on my therapy.

          I shall now copy the Remedy I prescribe for babies who need more help with digestive issued and you can use it to see if it helps. It will restrict the flow of Hcl acid into the stomach like a PPI drug which doctors use while causing so many other problems. My Remedy is quite safe but I have not used it for a 5 week old so far.

          Please keep my informed of his response daily.

          It seems to me that Baby is not responding to the Nat Phos 6x alone and it is time to add Robinia Pseudacacia 30c in the Wet dose to reinforce its action. This remedy will reduce the Hcl acid flow in baby’s stomach and works in a similar manner to the standard PPI drugs like Nexium which are usually prescribed by doctors even though they are aware that they are dangerous.

          You will make it as per instructions below and give half teaspoonful, twice daily.

          The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

          Get Robinia P 30c in the standard pellets and insert just 6 pellets into a 500ml bottle of Spring Water.
          Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
          Shake the bottle hard before you give baby half teaspoonful twice daily.

          You will stop the Robinia as soon as you find that baby is OK but you will continue the Nat Phos for as long as you feel that it is needed. Nat Phos is NOT a drug and is absolutely safe in use for long periods.

          Report progress in 48 hours.

  525. Maddy says:

    Yes, breastfeeding is not an option for me unfortunately. I figured I should wait longer than a week to switch formulas again as wel, correct?

    I just wanted to confirm since you are reluctant to give a remedy to aid a baby my sons age, that the remedy you provided is safe for him so young? Just wanted to clarify that statement. If so, I will order what you recommend. He is clearly extremely uncomfortable throughout all hours of the day choking on his stomach acid and affecting his sleep. We just want him to be happy and healthy!

    Thanks for the help and swift response.

  526. Mharp says:

    Hi! My four month old son is possibly dealing with a serious case of silent reflux. We have had an upper gi, swallow test and a scope is scheduled for October. He is extremely resistant to eating. When I try to feed him while he is awake, he will scream, arch his back, become stiff, not drink any of the bottle. The only time I have been able to feed him is if he is asleep. He is on forumla, at the moment alamentum. He is also on the liquid Pepcid, the ppi did not seem to work well for him. He talks .5ml of Pepcid. He is fine on his back and his sleep isn’t great but not terrible. We are just looking for guidance to help him eat and while awake without being in pain.

          You may try to give it to baby while asleep.

          I recommend you do not self prescribe but in any case
          DO NOT GIVE BABY ANY DRUGS

  527. Alexia says:

    Evening,

    I have read many of your reviews and astounded by the repeated success.

    Background
    7month old with silent reflux
    Has 10mg omeprazole daily (he has been on a suitable dosage for his weight since 4 weeks old) – this has not always solved the issue
    In general he’s a happy baby with short bouts of discomfort, mainly at night and will sleep for 1 hour maximum on his own.
    Eating solids, 3 meals a day, varied diet with no obvious intolerances.

    In an effort to wean him off the prescribed tablets and get him more comfortable during the night, I have recently (in the last 3 days) been giving my 7 month old Nat Phos 1/4 tablet 3 x daily. In this time he also has had the Nirovirus but he has been swallowing excessively, burping constantly but sleeping for longer hours (6 hours last night!!)

    My questions are:

    The Nat phos tablets contain lactose – could this be the issue? He has not shown any issues with dairy in his weaning of solids or formula.
    I’ve ordered lactose free versions so i am waiting on those.
    Could he be in more pain due to the mix of omeprazole and Nat phos? I’ve heard bad side effects of stopping omeprazole cold turkey!

    Thank you so much in advance! Any more information required, let me know!

    Hi

    I have a 6 year old daughter. For last few weeks she complains that for came back up in her mouth. We eat simple light meals. No fried or processed or junk food. Last night we ate dinner at 530pm and went to sleep at 8pm. Two hours later she woke up crying. She was pointing in the centre of her chest, saying it hurts. We kept her upright, and elevated her. She went back to bed and slept through the night. This morning she was eating her home made plain yogurt and Apple, and she said food came up.

    A brief background, when she was 3 months old he had silent acid reflux and stopped breastfeeding. Doctor put her on prevacid but after 5 months we didn’t notice much change and tried homeopathic remedy and toddler probiotics. That helped her and didn’t had any issues until in the past few weeks.

    So wondering what do you suggest we do. She is 6 years old.

    Thanks

    • Joe says:

      She suffers from GERD and I shall copy my default therapy below:

      THERAPY GERD

      It is very likely that you suffer from Hyperacidity or Gastritis, aka GERD (Gastro Esophageal Reflux Disease) and I shall copy my default therapy that has helped hundreds of patients to overcome this disease for which doctors usually prescribe PPI (Proton Pump Inhibitor) drugs which are dangerous and can cause many other more serious problem when used in the long term.

      You will hopefully discover that my therapy aka “Joepathy” will help you within 24 hours after you have taken your first dose after a meal.

      The remedies you will order are as follows:

      Nat Phos 6x dose 2-4 tablets taken immediately after each of 3 meals.
      This remedy accelerates the passage of food down the gut and prevents the formation of acid which would otherwise reflux causing GERD.

      Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily.
      This remedy works to repair the damaged Esophagus which has metastasised to resemble the gut to deal with the Hcl refluxed into it causing severe distress. Arnica works with the Nat Phos to speedily cure the problem.

      You can also take a Probiotic daily for a week. A Probiotic will help by changing the balance of the Bacteria in the Stomach and will contribute to your cure and help to ensure that your problem does not recur. After your problem with GERD is stabilised you can take the Arnica in the Wet dose nightly before bed for life. You do not need to take Nat Phos daily but you will keep a stock to be used whenever you feel uncomfortable after a meal when you will take 2-3 tablets as necessary.

      Please observe the following simple rules:

      Do not eat large meals. Eat small meals but more often if you feel hungry. Do not drink more that a few sips of water after your meals. This is to prevent the further dilution of your gastric juice which can then reflux into your Esophagus which results in GERD.

      It is important that you do not go to bed for at least 2 hours after dinner as food will take about this time to digest and it is best to stay awake and upright to enable your food to digest before going to bed.

      No fatty food, alcohol, coffee, preserved meats like sausages, ham, bacon as they contain Saltpeter which will antidote the remedies listed immediately.

      If you suffer from a stomach ache or you feel your stomach puffing up before a meal during the day between meals, this is usually due to hunger pains, caused by your gastric juices attacking the inner lining (Vilia) in the wall of your stomach. The simple remedy is to eat some food like a biscuit or a banana between meals to keep the gastric juice away from digesting the stomach wall which results in a stomach ache which in some cases can be acute.

      You must drink at least 2 liters of liquids, preferably water daily and you must also exercise for at least half hour daily. It is important to sweat it out as this is all part of my therapy to overcome GERD.

      The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

      Order the remedy in the Alcohol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
      If this is not available you may use the standard pellets which are always available.
      Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
      Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
      Insert 5 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose. You may also use 10 pellets if the alcohol pack is not available in your country.
      Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done every time before sipping 10ml of the Remedy, twice daily.

      It is understood that the patient will stop all other drugs which s/he may be taking for this ailment.
      Do not use Coffee, Cola beverages, preserved foods like sausages, ham and bacon as they contain Saltpeter.

    Hi Dr. – Our son was born premature at 31 week. He is currently 7 months old (5 months age adjusted) He currently has a G-tube and takes 100% of his feed via the tube. He has reflux in that he vomits with almost every other feed. We were prescribe omparezole, which he took for 2 months but had not impact. I then switched to Nat Phos 6x, but there is zero impact. Given he takes the feed via the tube, I put 1 tablet in his feeding bag, 6 times a day. Now we have stopped Nat Phos. Do you have any suggestions please? He is getting ready to eat alimentum formula as mom has minimal supply. Thank you!

    • Joe says:

      I have studied your report of your baby’s multiple problems which are being treated by other physicians and wish to inform you that it is best that you excuse me from adding to their therapy as I am over 92 years in age and although I am still around, I do not feel that I can spend the time and effort necessary to help your baby as his case is extremely complicated.

  531. Laura says:

    Hi, I am desperately looking for advise. We have an 8 week old that spits up a lot, is very gassy and comes on abs off the breast while nursing. I suspect reflux, because of frequent spit ups, chocking, multiple burps often with cottage cheese consistency. He is exclusively breastfed abs seems to be gaining weight. He is however very fussy most days abs nights. How could I help him? Thank you so much for offering advise on natural remedies.

  532. Laura says:

    Hi Doctor,

    Not sure if my initial inquiry was received. I have an 8 week old I suspect had reflux. He spits up a lot. It’s often cottage cheese consistency. He is very gassy, restless at a breast (he is exclusively breastfed), doesn’t sleep well at night due to obvious discomfort. He coughs abs I can hear sometimes when he is laying down that stuff comes up for him.

    • Joe says:

      I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

      The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

      You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

      You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

      Babies do not always do a poo daily. Some babies can go up to 5 days to do so. A gentle massage of her abdomen after every feed in a clockwise direction usually stimulates evacuation.

      You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

      It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
      Do not give the MMR Vaccine in One shot as there is plenty of evidence on the Web of severe side effects which can result. You are advised to give it in 3 separate shots if you must do so, after baby is 2 years old.

      Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

      You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

      If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

      You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby when you start on my therapy.

      • Laura says:

        Hi Dr. Joe,

        I’ve used it for a bit abs it doesn’t seem to help. He’s still chocking a lot, his nursing is uneasy, he’s on abs off the breast. Is there anything else I can do?

        • Joe says:

          WHAT IS abs?

          • Laura says:

            It’s a typo abs= and. Sorry this is a really tired moms typing.

            • Joe says:

              PLEASE DON’T ABUSE MY TIME AS I AM 93 YEARS IN AGE AND MY TIME IS PRECIOUS.

              It seems to me that Baby is not responding to the Nat Phos 6x alone and it is time to add Robinia Pseudacacia 30c in the Wet dose to reinforce its action. This remedy will reduce the Hcl acid flow in baby’s stomach and works in a similar manner to the standard PPI drugs like Nexium which are usually prescribed by doctors even though they are aware that they are dangerous.

              You will make it as per instructions below and give half teaspoonful, twice daily.

              The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

              Get Robinia P 30c in the standard pellets and insert just 6 pellets into a 500ml bottle of Spring Water.
              Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
              Shake the bottle hard before you give baby half teaspoonful twice daily.

              You will stop the Robinia as soon as you find that baby is OK but you will continue the Nat Phos for as long as you feel that it is needed. Nat Phos is NOT a drug and is absolutely safe in use for long periods.

              Report progress in 48 hours.

              • Laura says:

                Dear Doctor,

                My son’s reflux improved 24 hours after giving him Robinia. As per instructions I stopped the next day, because he got so much better. As soon as I stopped and kept giving Nat phos only the symptoms came back. Should I give him Robinia again?

                Thank you for all your help!

                • Joe says:

                  YOU MAY CONTINUE GIVING IT AS HE SEEMS TO DEPEND ON IT NOW.

    Good Night Dr Joe,
    My baby has silent reflux and cows milk allergy, I bought Nat pHos after reading your indications for GERD, and after using one tablet after each feeding (max 6 a day) only breastfed, im finding him more unsettled. I’ve noticed the hylland brand has lactose in it, could this be the culprit for his unsettleness? The lactose?
    Thank you for your help

  534. Viviane says:

    Dear Dr Joe,
    Please could you give me some advice. My little boy is 4.5 months old and has very bad reflux. He is exclusively breastfed, had a tongue tie cut when he was approximately 2 weeks old. Since birth he showed very bad symptoms of stomach pain (squirming, wriggling, crying) and a lot of vomiting. When he got to approximately 3 months, the pain seemed to get less. He is now a fairly content baby but he throws up SO MUCH and makes grunting noises. After every feed he throws up 3 “waterfalls” of fresh milk, then even an hour later he starts throwing up curdled milk. Some “vomiting episodes” could be as much as 10 big gushes of milk in about 20 minutes. I feel like this also affects his night sleep. He sleeps tor 4 hours usually after we first go to bed. He sleeps on his front because on his back he used to choke almost immediately, so now he is used to front sleeping. After the first 4 hour stint he sleeps upright on me, which affects my sleep too. Sometimes he is ok with cosleeping with me, him being on his side but after one hour he will wake and squirm and vomit. For the same reason I cannot get him back into his crib after the first big sleep at night (even though I do exactly the same as when we first go to bed!) I have tried adapting my diet. I have cut out citrus fruit and cows milk. Unfortunately I have not been 100% strict on the cows milk products. Things that have milk as an ingredient like chocolate for example, I wasn’t strict enough with. I have now taken him to a Cranial osteopath and he had two treatments so far. Treatment 1 made it a lot better for 3 days. Treatment 2 seems to have made it worse, but he also just had Covid and his 16 week jabs (a little late because we had to recover from Covid first). So I wonder whether that can influence it too. At the moment I am trying 2 VERY strict weeks of no gluten, wheat, milk, soy, egg. Because I am at my wits end. Please could you tell me based on the above if and how much Nat Phos could help him? How much would I have to take? And could I give some to him directly too? He is not very used to a bottle unfortunately. Could I let it dissolve in his mouth? Thank you so much for reading this far and I would be so grateful for your help! Best wishes, Viviane

    Hello Dr. Joe
    Our baby girl is almost 7 months old.
    She was prescribed famotidine at 2 months of age.
    She never showed severe signs of reflux.
    Mainly fussiness during feeds, wet burps, and spit up a few times a day.
    We tried to wean her off the famotidine the past month and now have stopped completely.
    She eats and sleeps well for the most part, but has gotten increasingly fussy at times overnight, with what sounds like some hoarseness in her throat. We then came across your Nat Phos 6x treatment.
    Do you recommend following a similar dosage to others in the comments?
    Thank you for your time and God Bless!

  538. Meg says:

    Dear Joe,

    My 8 month old had been diagnosed early in his life with a mild case of reflux that the pediatrician did not provide medication for, due to its mild nature. However my son has always slept poorly, and now can only sleep in his back 40 min-1 hour before waking up crying, arching his back. He will only sleep a little longer being held upright. Recent changes include a cessation of breastfeeding, as I am taking a medication that is unsafe to nurse on, and his eating more solids.

    I see him regurgitate a little in his sleep sometimes. He eats 3-4 oz ever 2-3 hours. My current pediatrician suggested 1 tablet of Nat Phos 6x twice a day. I gave him one tablet prior to a feed before a nap, he slept quickly and very well on his back for the first time in a long time for that nap. But after his next feed without Nat Phos 6x, as I was instructed to give it to him twice a day only, he cried inconsolably, crying out for comfort. He continued to cry in pain after each feed, either with or without his dose of Nat Phos 6x. I’m not sure how to proceed, as the Nat Phos 6x seemed to initially help a lot then possibly make him more uncomfortable than he was without it. Looking forward to your thoughts and recommendations.

    Thank you for your time and help!

      You can give him a tablet of Nat Phos 6x immediately after milk and see if this helps his allergy to milk as it appears that he is Lactose intolerant.

            You will stop the Robinia as soon as you find that baby is OK but you will continue the Nat Phos for as long as you feel that it is needed. Nat Phos is NOT a drug and is absolutely safe in use for long periods.

    Good day,

    Thank you for taking the time to read this and I appreciate everything far in advance. My son is 2 months old and has been diagnosed with GERD & Milk intolerance. He’s taking formula nutramigen maybe 2-3 ounces every 3-4 hours. He never wants to finish a bottle and fights through the pain. He arches his back and screams through the night. We’ve tried many formulas and so far this one seems to work the best. He has 2-3 stools a day and has a really bad cough and congestion since he was born. The dr wants to put him on medication because he is not gaining weight but looking at the side effects and I refuse. He’s also going to have his 2 month vaccinations appointments next week. I came across your methods. I found both Nat phos and Nux vomica only in pill form. I cannot find in the wet dose. I would like to start this tomorrow. How should I proceed please

      If I may share my experiences. We give homeopathy remedies to our kids from very early on.
      Even though I keep everything in liquid form, we don’t give them directly. I always mix the remedies with the pills and keep them handy.

      When we need to administer a remedy, what we do is, if the baby is breast feeding, we dissolve 2 or 3 pills in to a couple drops of breast milk and feed him drop by drop, being very careful he won’t miss his breath. If he is not breast fed, then we dissolve the pills into a couple drops of purified water and follow the same. Another way of doing is, feed him this mixture by having it in a bottle nipple and let him suck it. If he is vreast feeding, you can use a silicone breast nipple, and fill it with a couple drops of the dissolved remedy mix.

      By the way, if you avail liquid forms of the remedies, do not gove it to your baby, as the liquid form is mostly a spirit and the babies can’t sustain the spirit. First mix them with the pills and then dissolve the pills in whatever is convenient and used by your baby. But for a 2 month old its big challenge. We didn’t start until our baby is 4 months, so be very careful and good luck. Hope you will figure out a convenient and safe solution.

        I shall copy my default therapy for Baby GERD which I have prescribed for hundreds of babies and which I hope will help your baby too.

        The remedy is Nat Phos 6x which is a Biochemic Cell Salt and is NOT a drug. It is absolutely safe in use and you may like to look it up on Google.

        You will give baby half a tablet dissolved in milk a few minutes before every feed and the balance half immediately after a feed but you will not exceed a total of 6 tablets (12 halves) in 24 hours.

        You may like to try to reduce the quantity of milk you give for each feed to enable baby’s digestion to stabilize. You will however feed more often. It is essential that you burp baby immediately after every feed.

        Babies do not always do a poo daily. Some babies can go up to 5 days to do so. A gentle massage of her abdomen after every feed in a clockwise direction usually stimulates evacuation.

        You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby. You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.

        It is best not to vaccinate Baby till s/he is over 2 years old as the after effects in some cases can add to the problems with GERD.
        Do not give the MMR Vaccine in One shot as there is plenty of evidence on the Web of severe side effects which can result. You are advised to give it in 3 separate shots if you must do so, after baby is 2 years old.

        Do not give Baby any solid food till s/he is over 8 months of age.

        You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that Nat Phos 6x will help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

        If you discover that baby does not respond to the Nat Phos 6x alone and this has occurred in a few cases, you will contact me again and I shall then prescribe another remedy to reinforce the action of Nat Phos 6x.

        You will stop all other drugs you may be giving baby when you start on my therapy.

    HI Sir,

    My 3 year old baby started having reflux. We started 1 natrum phos after feeding but he is still uncomfortable. he is coughing, not sleeping well and gets red after feeding. I see you prescribe Robinia is some cases and nux vomica in others. What should we add with natrum phos. How does robinia works differnet than nux vomica. He does not have constipation he poops 6-8 times a day.
    Thanks for you help and i hope you live a long healthy life.

    Hello dr. De Livera,

    Humble Pranams. You are a blessing. Our then 11 month old son had been going through severe GERD, excess colic, vomitings, loss if weight and malnutrition, even after going for hypoallergenic formula etc.now he is 18 months.

    I have been to many doctors both allopathic and homeopathic. No one suggested Nat Phos. As we have seen in above comments by many specialists and hence many procedures were recommended. But our pediatrician has been a very hollistic guy and he advices against any intervention. So we avoided all the tests and procedures. But he didn’t diagnose any condition either.

    Based on your blog and based on many comments, we have realized its GERD This continuous GERD and excess vomiting made our baby to lose weight and go into a state of shock and crisis and his developmental milestones started missing. He was all good until his 3rd month and then these GERD problems triggerred developmental delays due to malnutrition.

    Rightaway I shared your blog with our homeopathy doctor in india. She has been reluctant and hesitant about starting Nat Phos 6x. But we started right away, after reading your blog.

    We gave Nat Phos 6x for 1 month and we have seen great results. We can’t thank you enough and we are grateful for your online advocacy of such remedies. All I can say is you have been a blessing fornour kid and when he grows up, we will tell him this happened. All the 10 months of suffering started reducing and in a couple months he has got much much better and then on our homeopathy doctor taken from there with complimentary remedies for sustainable recovery of both colic problems and to address developmental delays.

    Thank you very much once again, if there is an opportunity we would like to meet you in person. We wish you long and healthy life.

    Regards
    Pradeep.

    Hi. I would like to treat my 2 week old baby with your protocol but I see that they changed the tablets to be 4x as big. Do I still use the one tablet or now I have to quarter it per feed ?

    Also does it matter if I give the full dose after feeding as opposed to half before and half after ? When I first found your direction it was just 1 tablet after.

    Best wishes.
